I thought the hype train had no breaks.

Choo-choo no more?

Will this event be getting streamed at all?

Hopefully we get to see much more content and maybe a few new reveals. Would be awesome.

Beta weekends are great, but we’re now…. 8 weeks (?) since our last spec reveal.

I positively love gamescom, and I’m super excited to be going to this amazing show. If you’re going, too, post here so I can watch for you at the show!

How are you going to do that? You know, irl we don’t have a name-tag above our head.

Also plans for selling any goodies.. you know.. like a Ultra Super Special Edition of HoT? Only sold at these meetings.

Anyway, I see you there.. as you likely do have a name-tag.

I’ll be going to the show on behalf of a French community guild (Le Bus Magïque [LBM]).
Looking forward to see you there.

Would be nice if we knew if there was anything new on show. You know for hype reasons.

Pretty sure it will. All previous events had streams + WTS will be hosted there.

They are at the Twitch booth, does that answer your question?

I would personally have loved to see them having their own booth again like in 2012.

I’ll be going on Thursday, with my brother. Can’t wait to see you all there!

I’ve had my tickets for all but saterday ready for a while. Saterday was sold out soooo fast!
I’m very much going to enjoy the con.
(and bring Stroopwafel bribes ^_~ )

It would be great if you could tell us what merchs could we expect there. I can’t be there but my friends will be and I could ask them to check your booth and get me some souvenir. Unfortunately they don’t play GW2 so they won’t know what to look at

FOR DHUUM’S SAKE! Why am I ALWAYS really busy when you guys are coming close?

I’ll be there the whole week! Looking forward to meeting you guys!

OMG I’ll be there! Gw2 is the best and I love anre net ! I will see you live!

I’m not an anet employee but they threw out t-shirts in 2010/2011 i believe, and in 2012 they gave out item cards for a in-game T-shirt before their lounge/bar got swamped.

So i’d say expect T-shirts in some way shape or form!

I’ll be there on 5th! See you soon

Woohoo! Great news! The tournament last year was very fun as well!

My girlfriend and I will be there as always! Looking forward to seeing the ArenaNet team again and possibly meeting Gail Gray the legend in person

Also very curious as to what content of HoT will be showed!

Will Maclaine be there?
I’d love to chat with him!

Guys gamescom is weeks away I am guessing they will be doing something big this is Anet they like to go all out I for one am looking forward to what they reveal/do at the event.

Gaile Gray.6029:

We’re excited to let you know that ArenaNet will be at gamescom in Cologne, Germany, from August 5 through 9. We will be showing off Guild Wars: Heart of Thorns at the Twitch booth in Hall 9. A lot has changed since we were at the show last year. Stop on by, meet members of the Guild Wars 2 team, and get some yourself some hands-on with HoT!

I positively love gamescom, and I’m super excited to be going to this amazing show. If you’re going, too, post here so I can watch for you at the show!

Hi Gaile, hope to see you again after EGX … a question. Are we allowed to enter on the 5th? I believe we can only enter on the 5th if allowed by the exhibitor (anet ins this case) …

I am really look forward to it

Note: you may remember me as the guy with almost 8000 hours split into two accounts

Will Jon Peters be there?

I’d like to chat about Necro balance

Me too. See you then! ; )

I’m not into hype train anymore. Anet’s probably going to show one more region of verdant brink, probably a few square meters (instanced) and everything we already know about.

We are not the target probably. They want to bring more NEW players, gamescom is not for us

Fantastic to hear that he team will have a presence again this year. It’s always a blast at GC and I’m looking forward to seeing you all again.

For sure i will be there, looking forward to seeing the people behind te game after all these years

I wish I could go >.<

Will you show anything new or just what we already know?

Can you tell us, if you have an event or something else planned and when it would be?

Any chance of a return to Gen Con?

Yeah, kitten . I got to study for my bachelor’s.
kitten those priorities.
Wish everyone attending GC a hell of a lot of fun!
Are you guys streaming though?

2015 is a great year for games. Will be there as well. See ya there, all.

I’m so going to be there! Got the tickets in April, hoping Anet would be out this year too.

GW1-er here from the start, got to know my husband through the game! Recently we moved to Cologne and been there last year, was a total blast for me. This year we are bringing our 4yo daughter too for a spin (she loves when mummy plays hide and seek with a mesmer/thief:)

It would be indeed wonderful to have some kind of known schedule, as we are coming with three kids (2 godchildren ftw!) on Friday and really need to plan around the children so I might get some try-out and chat time alone.

To those asking if they’ll be streaming..

“Twitch booth in Hall 9”

“TWITCH BOOTH”

“TWITCH”

Understand now?

Wasn’t this where they revealed last year (or was it the year before) that there would be no more new dungeon content?

waht is twitch? I would like to know if they are going to stream on their site, I’m a big fan but I don’t want to install unwanted programs on my pc.

Translation:

We aren’t going to give you guys any more real info before this show because we need it for hype. What you can expect before then is a lot more about stuff we have already revealed.

Please correct me if I’m off base here.

Don’t you mean where they said they wouldn’t be doing massive changes to the current dungeons?

I’d love to go to gamescom but unfortunately the tickets are sold out for the whole weekend. Gaile, if I were to cosplay a male revenant human, would you sign me as a promoter? ???? Btw having a couple of drinks with izzy and mat was awesome – they were really cool

Ill be there and I hope you will be a bit better represented than last year.
There was nothing really GW2 there, just some people in the T-Shirts who could have been players or just fans. It was hard to tell if there was someone responsible there….

Ill be there on thursday and I am pretty excited allready to play a bit HoT.
Hope we also get some nice tidbits of information there.
Still hoping for a bit more “phyisical” information, if I may drop that hint.

As someone living in Cologne, I’ll be there naturally, this year I have ordered quickly enough my tickets. Last year I got surprised, how fast they got sold out all for the very first time. Was a real wtf moment for me, but poo happens..can’t have everything

I’ll be there on the 6th and 7th of August and to go there on Saturday/Sunday is always the WORST choice, unless you seriously like MASSES of people and much longer waiting times ..yahoo xD
With the tradefare being only 45 mins away from my home, I’m quickly there to enjoy those two days to the fullest ^^

I’ll surely try to get some talk with the Devs, hopefully getting some answers to questions I’d like to know
Can still remember myself on 2010/11 around at Gamescom having had a nice talk with Ree, where she signed my Guild Wars: Destiny’s Edge Novel Book, talking about Quaggans and if there will be somewhere later in the released game some lore bits to get to know, what the name of the deep sea dragon is, which is still unknownd until today sadly, despite just knowing, that it begins with S ^^

I have a feeling, Gamescom 2015 is the final time to get many yet unanswered questions finally answered

We will see … in less than a month ^^

Still no money for getting his own place at cologne ?? Still need twitch and no able to open your own place ? That sounds very poor. Even my company got a huge pavillion there and every developer for high end games should having their own.

About tickets: Saturn shops in Germany still selling some, especially in smaller places. Last year I managed to get some 2 weeks before the event. So if you got a German friend, might worth to ask, it was still fairly easy to get extra two 1 week ago.

On another note I second this!

There was nothing really GW2 there, just some people in the T-Shirts who could have been players or just fans. It was hard to tell if there was someone responsible there….

Am i the only one seeing something wrong with a game when ppl ask to be hyped?

I wanna have a chat with Robert gee and ask him some hard questions, is that at all possible ?

Me and some guildmembers will be there. Expect a group of around 10 following mindless a commander tag (if it is done on time by our creative department) into a hall full of enemys (Are there more than three Servers in WvW now?!).

Not sure how many others of the german communitys will be there, but a few of the gw2ts project management and/or “round table” people might come. I hope Ramon Domke will be there too. He may have given an answer in the last rount table meetings, but i guess i missed it.

See you in Cologne / Köln!

Gaile Gray.6029:

That’s great! I really look forward to meeting you!

Senpai noticed me!

I don’t know if you were at Gamescom 2010, that was the last time I was there, but a few members of your staff took pics with me back then. It was due to my sign that said “Insert T-shirts here” and the blue “Bukkit” attached to it (does anyone remember Martin’s bukkit? Because I have the official one^^)
