Guild Wars 2 Beta Weekend. SWTOR or GW2, what do you prefer?

id like to see the post by bioware that says there actually planning on merging servers.i figured the epic failure that was free server transfers were going to be there just genius idea on fixing server populations

Then you need a pair of glasses, seriously. Either that or you are trolling hardcore.

i dont really care if the graphics were wow.the pvp looks a million times better then the garbage they call pvp in swtor

haha, SWTOR plays EXACTLY like WoW, they copied basically everything World of Warcraft does right now, except WoW does it better.

How exactly does GW2 feel like WoW? The combat is totally different, you can switch from a ranged class to a melee class just by switching your weapon, you have entirely different set of abilities depending on your weapon, there is no "quests" and cities are actually amazing.

GW2 doesn't need to kill anything, it isnt a sub based MMO.

Difficult "solo" missions? Are you really that bad you can't learn how to dodge and utilize abilities correctly? I'm sorry you can't just mash buttons and succeed like you can in every other MMO in the last 7 years.

GW2 has nothing to do with GW1 except it uses the same lore. They said 1000 times it will be nothing like GW1. The "client performance" is actually your computer being terrible, I can play the game with absolutely no lag with massive amount of people on my screen.

The game is absolutely phenomenal and I'm so glad someone has finally made a new interesting fun game. SWTOR was supposed to be that game but as we can see with the massive ghost towns, it failed pretty hard.

GW2 by a long shot. It's almost perfect. Almost. I got them old DAoC feelings back.


Buhbye SWTOR.

I played the weekend beta. My statement stands. oh and i have better than 20/20 vision

GW2 by far. The combat is really complex and hard to understand but after 30? Hours you know how to do it Hell, I died even a few times because I played bad. I loved that.

It's really challenging sometimes. PvP is fast as hell and unforgiving.

Do you understand the difference between graphical quality and art style? I don't think you do. If you think Swtor has better graphics than GW2 you need to get your glasses checked.

sadly,this is probably going to be the fate of gw2

i mean,people will come to the game.and get steamrolled,and will whine and cry all day on forums.and arenanet will eather cave and get rid of the dodge system.or the game will end up with no one playing it

i mean,from looking at people who play mmos.alot of them are casuals,and casuals generally dont like challenging things.dodge kinda sounds like its going to be one of those things that look challenging

I Tried the beta.
It has a lot of issues (for now), much like swtor at his beginning:

Low fps, Latency / delay, you can't bind shift/ ctrl / mouse wheel, you can't customize the UI, you don't gain xp if you pvp, the chat is meh, the story is worse (imo, of course), you don't return where you were questing after joining a pvp match, ecc (just the first ones that crossed my mind)

Also, am I wrong or there is only 1 battleground? It seems its the same battleground just with different maps. Dynamic events are fun, the dodge system, casting while moving and few other things too.

But I don't really see myself playing it...
