Guild Wars 2

Hey guys at A-net. I watched the presentation at Pax on twitch and asides it having me scream YES, YES, YES! (like M.Bison in his finest days) it had one great thing which i believe you can share right here and now.

That ambient jungle soundtrack that was played from 3:40 or so of the stream till 5:30 or so when Jennifer Hale got back on stage. It’s really awesome and as i remember you already shared some tracks in the past with us via social media, so how about throwing us our first HoT bone after Pax in the form of this full length music (and without green bat clapping in the clip;).

Best we have so far. The Golden Cave was also played during the pre-show.

Thanks! chews on my bone:)

I remember back when Nightfall came out. Wow! Just… Wow! That soundtrack was just superb. Very few soundtracks are quite as epic as that one was. The new soundtrack sounds like it could be just as good. I’d love that.

This piece is actually quite a bit longer than you heard in the stream, and it changes right around the point where it cut out. Shame, really, because I think it gets more interesting from there. Sorry for the teaser. I can’t discuss what our plans for releasing music are just yet, but eventually you’ll be able to hear the whole thing.

Its been awhile but I vaguely recall Anet having a Soundcloud with a lot of the game’s soundtracks and even some of the funnier bits (Captain Weyland’s musings on his lost wives) being one of them. Is that still up and running and could it perhaps be put on there?

That would be this site: https://soundcloud.com/arenanet/

Usually they’ve only released new clips there after they’ve debuted in-game though.

Nice to hear from music’s creator himself, hat’s off to you sir for the this track, even if i heard just around half;)

Guess i’ll just have to cope with a-net torturing us with unknown, till it’s known.
But i can bet most of them had something like this on their contracts.

“Additional benefits (you may select one):
1. Additional 13th salary per year.
2. Keeping players in the dark, teasing them, enjoying every moment of their agonizing uncertainty and wait!”

A-net saved money on a loooot of paychecks that way;)

Here’s a fanmade “remake” of the clip from the stream.

YEEEEEEEEESSSSS, I was so hoping you would be doing the music!

Thank you so much for the music you’ve made so far, you are a fantastic composer.

But is Leif Chapelle still around?
