Guild Wars 2

Have you thought about trying out new maps with general population and give everyone a taste of the new map for a weekend? You could reset the scores on Monday and reverts the maps or just keep the scores going and reset it, doesn’t matter. You would get alot more testers, reports on exploits etc before launch. And those that fall in love with WvW again might buy expansion.

TLDR anet please do an open beta weekend before HoT launch when everyone can try out the new borderland map. Even players who haven’t ordered HoT.

are you saying people without expansion can’t join WvW when HoT launched ?

I think they will have one more beta for the map but how open it will be is still in the air. I think what azizul was hinting at was that people won’t pre order HoT because they like the new WvW map because you can play in with the core game.
