As soon as I upgrade my computer, I plan on playing again... Been almost a year now since I've played seriously...

Yea thats the awesome thing about GW. Need a break to play some other games or work or do some RL stuffs... go ahead, you're already all paid up

I'm kind of interested in coming back too, perhaps in the summer.

So crystal, has anything changed dramatically?

With Nightfall being $25 at EB right now, there is no excuse for anyone to not try this game.

I picked up Nightfall to add to my Factions/Prophecies. I'll be on and off as Altea Divinetouched.

Well, I'm not sure the last time RZ played, but if it was before Nightfall, the heroes alone are a fairly big change. As far as updates go, soul reaping for necromancers got a fairly large nerf, only works every 5 seconds now. Ritualists are dominating PvP. Theres the new "hard mode" which makes everything lvl 20+ and is supposed to have better loot. There are now lockpicks which are essentially keys that cost 1.5k and have a chance to be used more than once (which increases with certain titles you can earn). Armor from prophecies and factions got upgraded to the insignia system so now you really can have any armor look with any stats. Um.. theres now this thing called loot scaling which makes gold (as in money) and white items drop less for every person under 8 in the party; aka, a nerf to solo farming.

Lets see, some other good stuff, you can now get scrolls that teleport you into the Fissure of Woe, the Underworld, The Deep, and Urgoz's Warren regardless of which region has favor or who controls Cavalon/House Zu Heltzer. Scrolls to Deep/Urgoz take 1000 faction of the corresponding faction (which is one winning alliance battle, 2 if you lose both times) and UW/FoW scrolls drop in hardmode. Hmmm... they added an official wiki that you can access by pushing F10 or typing /help. Oh, theres an automated tournament system now so you can sign up and play in the PvP tournament without having to set up matches.

They've also added some little stuff here and there like specific weapon sound effects for axe/sword/hammer hitting various materials...

Some of the update stuff is cool but a lot of it is just polishing making the game more solid.

I had the original since it came out, finally picked up Nightfall. Its been way too long since I played. I'm planning on picking up Factions soon. My guild is still there just... so empty now : (

Damn... looks like they changed a lot.... Well I plan on picking up Nightfall in a couple weeks and coming back to play regularly again.

I've been playing Guild Wars for about 8 months now, big fan of it, but I've been taking a break. I plan to play again really soon, but I need a good guild again since I left my last one to take a month break.

GWEN might be as early as end of August

god i just bought the GOTY edition from circuit city.. and i opened the slip that has the serial key in it and no serial key.. so now i cant play until i get this resolved.. arrrrgghh!!

Well, I decided to play this tonight. Still on right now, I'll probably be on for a couple hours if someone manages to see this. So much is different...

Where can I get Nightfall for ~$30?

Not sure about NF but after the expansion comes out you should have an easy time finding it on the cheap. I've personally stopped playing Guild Wars until the expansion comes out, as I have nothing left to do in the game. Its D2 till then!

I got NF about a month ago for $28 CDN. I haven't even beaten the entire storyline with one character yet. lol

Well last night I booted this up after playing Wow, and I think it's safe to say I'll be on everyday now. My main focus is stocking up on materials for the release of GWEN. I'm hoping the market will double and triple like it did with the other expansions.

EDIT: Picked up NF today.

So now that I have my computer fixed, and I am never playing a real MMO. I am going back to start playing this again.

I only have the first game though.

Well, I'm addicted again. Allnighters nearly every night, and playing all day whileI'm awake.

If anyone would care to party up, my in game name is "Chuck the Great"

Hit me up.

I'll be back come the release of GWEN.

well I've finally gotten back into guild wars, I plan on picking up the new expansion when it comes out. my name is "astrik enox" I'm not in a guild and if you could add me to the list that would be great.
