In the Reddit AMA Guild Wars 2 Developer session, Jon Peters of ArenaNet announced the words we’ve all been waiting for. The actually start of closed beta.
Wccftech talked to Guild Wars 2 Game Director Josh Davis about the learnings from the Secrets of the Obscure expansion and what's coming to the MMORPG.
The "slippery slope" debate has started, now we wait to see what ArenaNet does.
"ArenaNet and NCSOFT are today very happy and excited to announce that they have just released the "Secrets of the Obscure" expansion for their award-winning and critically acclaimed MMORPG "Guild Wars 2"." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
very much so... "blank" is still a thing" is also still a thing as you can can surmise.
Anet also announced the 5th expansion. "We’ve already started applying lessons from the development of Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure to our fifth expansion, which we expect to be released next year." From their site, been with this game since 1st beta, and announcing the 5th expansion so soon, the game is doing very well, plus the graphics are improved a bit now that it's on DX11🙃
Correct, and yes. Imo, they've done very well for themselves, and I'm very impressed with what they have achived with GW2 since the game launched.
I think they decided to finally announce it today since the Mesmer leak kind of took some steam out of today's announcement.
Well, it is about freaking time. 27 press releases all year (not including today) as compared to Secret World's over 70 release count. I am not even going to mention TOR's.
Its still pretty much going to be a alpha beta
