"Guild Wars...This Weekend"

Those of you that have been on this forum for a while might remember a thread I did a while back on the MMORPG Guild Wars. Yes, it's the first MMORPG to have NO MONTHLY FEES. That got me interested straight away but now, the game will be available to play throughout the weekend in a World Preview, where the most of the world will be able to connect and play the game throughout the weekend. Gamespy have put up a download for the game client along with every other bit of information that's known about this game:

I downloaded the game client, which I then opened and had to download loads of files but it was only 9MB in the end. You have to sign up for an account and it took me about 1 minute to do it. So if any of you download it, post on here and maybe we can play together.

That third mission was comedy of error's. There we where all dead, then out of nowehre the final player finally spawns in and ends up saving us all. Pity it didn't last long though, some of those creatures where tough.

Billy the Kettle has added you.

I have dibs on Bob.

I'm Earendil of Pumpkin

Fear my pirate roar.

You know, it's suprising just how many people walk up to my character and look at me for a few seconds, then walk around me, look at me from behind then run off.
Perverts.

Should've seen me earlier.

"Uhm guys... I died... again... A little help here... Sorry :("

We were pretty much screwed after I used everbody's ressurection thingy.

What's your name?

Yarg.

For some reason, running about the (rather beautiful) dock area in District 10 inspired me to start screaming pirate at Bob and Sir Ganwick the Cyber Punk. And at half of the population of the area as well.

ok

We should all go on and hack the other players yelling pirate comments.

Can we?

It matters not, I teamed up with AOE and we did the second mission together (along with four others), we did a good job too, even if AOE had a tendancy to run off before everyone regrouped, and that caused a few problems ;-D

Went onto the third mission after that, and by golly, the difficulty went up from fairly easy to impossibly hard. Creatures used devastating attacks and lots of poison strikes. I'll have to have another go tommorrow before this free weekend preview thing ends.
