You should probably try to avoid Yak's Bend, Darkhaven, or Anvil's Crossing during the beta, as they'll be crowded as all hell. Me and 5 other buds are heading to Ferguson's Crossing.

I'm curious to see how well zerging will be handled while trying to complete "quests" so I'm gonna stick with a crowded server for now

From what I understand the game has a channel-based system much like Maple Story does

First I've heard of Guild Wars 2 having it.. I know TERA does, but there might not be a point since credit and resources can be shared among everyone.

I had this issue with some friends, we all got in Yak's Bend except for 1 guy. So you can switch around until 9 PM tomorrow night for free.

Found the Cave of Caerbannog in GW2. That was no ordinary rabbit.

The beta was pretty fun for me. One of the few games that lives up to their promise and hype.

Dynamic Events feel much better than standard Quest Givers. Personal Stories are a nice addition along with all the player choices that you can do the change them. Played Guardian, Ranger, Elementalist, Necromancer, and Mesmer and suprisingly they were all fun to play. I would say that's pretty rare for me in a RPG where I can enjoy every class available. I'll have to try out the other ones next beta event.

I love the sidekicking feature, it makes the game always challenging so you're always the right level for a content even if you go back to lowbie zones.
