I finally found good information about racial skills : CLICK HERE

 

Cool link! Never realized that some of those were my race specific skills Best skill name is Charrzooka IMO

Until recently, I thought all racials were elites. Guess I should check and see of there any that look promising.

Felicia Day did a voice for the game, and got her Guild Wars 2 Collector Edition way before anyone else :

 

In this video, she opens the whole thing :

Here I found an article (in French, but you'll get to understand the main things) about the Gem Store.

 

Near the end, I've been able to understand that a Character Slot will cost $10 (800 gems) and an Inventory slot costs $5 (400 gems).

Max, that is typical pricing for GW. You will get a set number of character slots to start (think they are giving us 5), and if you want to purchase more you can for $10/Character slot. Also you are given a set amount of space in your storage/bank..if that is not enough for you then you can purchase more storage/bank tabs for $5/per set amount. This is one of the ways they make their money on the game rather then collecting a monthly fee.

Bump to share a few news from Gamescom :

 

1. The accounts will have a system autenticator (digital and possibly physical) similar to WoW - official information will come out next week.

 

2. In case of account hacking the account may be restored to their prior state before the intrusion.

 

3. There will be live in-game support (similar to WoW) through tool that we already use to report BUGS, we will be able to contact a GM in real time.

 

4. The end-game is not 100% completed, there is much work to do, but ANET is not expecting the the end-game to be reachable quickly, they are now focused on the release, if all goes well they will move on to work at 100% in the endgame (DiabloIII nostalgia:)).

 

PS - They are aware of the disaster of Diablo with the end-game and ensured that will not happen to GW2, after the release team will jump all just work in end-game.

 

5. Are being explored new methods of PvP, GvG is confirmed to return to GW2, but said they could not disclose much more.

 

6. New merchandise will be launched on 28/08/2012, including Dragon T-Shirts.

 

Fun facts:

 

All 270 workers from NCSOFT who are working in GW2 will be online in head-start, including those in Europe and Asia, just in case.

 

 

Well as I just drive 3 hours and have slept very badly, there are things that probably do not remember, I'll post pictures later with the ppl of ANET and GW booth.

 

The community manager for the French territory speaks Portuguese because her grandparents are living in Algarve.

 

NCSOFT launched a new sound-track of GW2 during the event (the first all-the-time containing lyrics).

 

I can't wait to meet all the devs during headstart (and eventually release)!

We did see one Arena Net character during BWE3, but I did not speak to him.

Here's the proof :

 

 

I really hope we'll meet to devs often so we can have fun with them too. I can't wait to get my Lt. hat again for these kinds of meetings so we can have more adventures while being under-leveled
