Good its a long event.. Hurrah

Look on the top, next to Wintersday you can see ‘January 2013’, with a lock, just like the December update was a few minutes ago
Sexy costumes for both genders plz.
“Learn more” doesn’t seem to go anywhere as of yet.

They just added the banner, probably still working on finishing it.
Our excitement for the Wintersday event broke the link…
A whole month of it too! Wintersday in GW1 was always my favorite event from any MMO, really looking forwards to this.
I wonder if Grentches will be making a return appearance?

It goes to the December update page, it’s just that they made the December update page redirect to the GW2 homepage at the moment.
still no info :|
still no info :|
Probably delayed due to sudden server problems. Also, I’m guessing it’s all there, they just forgot to un-forward the page.
At least the Gem Store won’t be empty :P
It works now! That looks really cool =)
The arts are really cool! The colors are beautifull

nice, wonder if the rumored “welfare legendaries” to be had (not from farming and grinding) will be added. Everyone gets a legendary this Xmas, awesome!
Hoping that no achievements are tied to certain days or one day/time events. Going to be absent half of that event time because it’s relatives visiting season.
Is it really wintersday though? More like wintersmonth ain’t it.
At least all the major cities will be used in place of having a million LA overflows filled.
Request for candy cane skin rifle that shoots tinsel as a particle effect please?
Or change grenade/bomb kits on engineers so that they’re throwing/setting presents…. presents of DOOM
At least they have heard about feedback ; a month-long event, no excuse to miss it!

I believe it will take place at LA at the end of the event
I hope we get snow, and not just in LA (and no, Hoelbrack doesn’t count :p)
Good its a long event.. Hurrah
Agreed. Between the holidays and getting married, December will be a busy month for me, so it’s nice to see that they’re expanding the range of time to log on and experience the event.
Can’t wait. Want more info…
Hopefully there won’t be skins locked in chests this time… Just make them individual BLTC items (as well as in the chests if they really have to have those kitten things, for those few gamblers).
Good its a long event.. Hurrah
Definitely. Hopefully no one-time events (other than cut-scenes) and we get enough time to do whatever the achievements are gonna be (You know there are gonna be some).
Anyone else hoping to get to explore inside that airship/thing? (second pic. I’m assuming its Tixx’s airship)
(edited by skullmount.1758)
So which piece of LA is going to get exploded this time? Freeze the bay over? ;P

Yes I think you have it down, but what costumes will be on offer?
Some of the Norn bodies demand a Santa style jacket.

Oh, yeah, costumes. Well, probably a Grentch one, since humans probably have memories about them, even if they don’t come back. And, I hope, a christmas red and white one!

I would love to see something like this for the ladies. Less skimpy though, but at least the Hood style and Boots.

As for the males, none other than the classic.

And then of course for laughs, bring on the Elves.

Coal is better than these 3 options.

I think you forgot to say the minis will also be in the chest with a really low drop rate…
I’m not sure how they could make a Grentch costume though. If anything a Grentch tonic. (I can’t be the only one hoping for a sexy elf (preferably red and white default colored) costume (at least for female characters)

Thats what I’m talking about. Agree it could be a bit less skimpy, but there are already actual armors that are that skimpy.
Anyways,
How, if even included, will the traditional Grenth VS. Dwayna be included? Since that’s only for humans.

I can easily see humans trying to imitate the game of their old gods, fighting each other disguised in Dwayna or Grenth partisans.
Also, I really hope that Wintersday will happen in every city so that we have the chance to see how each race considers this event. War toys (mom, I want a wood sword!) for Charrs, technologic things for Asuras (wooah, I can command this mini-golem X-452MAS), curiosity for Sylvari (trying to imitate the others, but no children, just plants growing for winter), and beer & fights for Norns, obviously.

Coal could be the new crafting material!
Once again an Asura is the main character. I wonder if they regret putting humans in the game.
Cant wait to see the xmas costumes on the cash shop!
And also I hope it snows in LA

An human would have been weird. Who can make toys in a giant flying workshop better than an Asura?

Hopefully that’s sarcasm, cause there’s already coal as a crafting material.

Especially toys that of course WILL go horribly wrong/awry (either intentionally, accidentally, or due to inquest tampering). Or toys that will/can go on a npc murdering/crime/theft spree

Love the sound of this. Wintersday was always my favourite event in GW1 as well. Good to hear all the cities will be involved, too.
Hope there are some proper costumes and nice things in the gem store though, not just RNG chests.
Some of the Norn bodies demand a Santa style jacket.
What some Norn bodies really demand is less Norn
Anyone else not really excited?
Anyone else not really excited?
Compared to what?
New content is good. Hopefully the wintersday event also adds more permanent content.
Anyone else not really excited?
I’m excited at the prospect, but expecting bugs/problems. Just hopefully none as big as the ones in Lost Shores.
Anyone else not really excited?
Then you have never played GW1, at least not during Wintersday!
The asura Santa Claus is a great twist. Looks like another stellar event coming, which makes for a very impressive 3 month streak.
