Guild Wars 2

This was a big thing mentioned before release

A companion app for tablets/smartphones that would allow you to talk to guildies and see what freinds/guildies were doing on the world map

What happened to this?

It’s stil on the works… from a may 23d post on the API subforum:

Cliff Spradlin.3512:

…We’re working on implementing OAuth2, a safe authentication system that will allow websites and applications to talk to our API on behalf of players without giving those apps your game password. For developers, this will involve signing up for an API key, getting a quota of API calls, etc. For users, there will be a new login flow where they authorize apps to take certain actions on their behalf.

OAuth2 support will enable many more personalized APIs to be created. Guild, Chat, Character, and other APIs are all possible. We don’t currently have a planned release date for OAuth2, but we’re actively working on implementing it….

Good find

I’m still hoping for a WoW style character viewer so I can add characters to my guild website like my WoW characters are
