Guild Wars 2

I am looking for friends to play with.

Now that’s said, I hope I’m posting in the right area because I’m going to explain about what I’m looking for… with a little back-story emphasis.

I used to play all my games with a core group of friends. Whether it was counter strike team of 5 playing tournaments – teamwork being utmost priority which got us to know each other quite well, or a happen chance fellowship from a Wow dungeon that turned out to the group meeting up every day since for a year and becoming fast friends…

I had a feeling of belonging. After a year of having to be away from my computer due to “life happening”, I’ve been back online roaming around MMO’s and games in general looking to connect with people and play with a friend or a group of friends again. I’m specifically posting on GW2 forums because Guild Wars has always been my home of MMORPG since prophesies. But I am tired of playing solo, gaming has lost it’s fun without the others.

So I hope my examples explained what kind of gaming/online friendship I’m hoping to make with this thread. If there’s anyone that can relate to this, please let me know and maybe it would be worthwhile for you too.

I am 100% with you .. I have been bouncing from game to game (around real life of course) basically trying to re-create what diablo 2 was for me. Quite honestly it was the friends and gameplay that brought it all together. I am hoping to find the same thing in guild wars. I am brand new, learning everything from scratch, though spending countless hours on other mmo’s should make that curve easy.

Feel free to add me in game, I rather play with consistent people than randoms all the time. Guild wars does a good job at bringing everyone together with the core engine but there’s nothing better than setting a goal with some buds and reaching it.

Same here!

I’ve joined a few guilds to see but not found a ‘home’ yet. Generally people are helpful as the game works coorperatively instead of competitively all the time.

Think the key is to find a ‘newbie’ server. My ‘loneliness’ is mainly finding I’m on my own most of the time through the vast areas of the map. Majority of max-level players are gathered in the hubs like LA or around dungeons.

It would be nice for a bunch of relatively new(or returning players) helping each other where you dont feel like you’re a burden to everyone all the time asking for help.

I’m not really new but I enjoy helping new players getting into the game quite a lot. But since most groups for dungeons are always ‘lvl 80 only’ or ‘experienced only’ I feel like newbies are rejected everywhere. I still have 5 characters to level, so any of you guys are on NA and you have question or need help with something, you can message me ingame.

I appreciate all of the replies, If anybody else is looking for something like this please let me know. Currently doing any end game stuff and looking for someone to lvl a character with.
