I’m kind of surprised this feature isn’t around already, it’s very useful for a myriad of reasons and I’d hate to see the game remain without it. For instance; I was getting thrashed by another player in sPvP the other day and really wanted to see what kind of build they were using, so I went to look for their character profile, only to discover that I can’t see someone’s gear, spec, achievements ect. outside the game (that I can find, point me in the right direction if I’m wrong here).
It’s a real disappointment. I found this feature to be a great community builder in my time on WoW and I’d love to have that place to link people back to my toon as well as checking out the toons of friends and guildmates.
So I just installed the Beta version, the process went really fast. It then launched a screen that looked like a launcher and had a fancy GW2 background…. only it was completely blank. At the bottom was a floating unlabeled checkbox and a progress bar with the text “100%” over it that flickered on and off. After the progress bar blinked a bit I got this error :
s_initialized
A serious error has occurred that prevented the application from continuing. A report has been sent to ArenaNet to help determine the cause.
Subsequent relaunches have returned the same result.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Just noticed that the install can’t have gone properly since it did not take up the 18 gigs on my hard drive it said it needed. Have reinstalled, did not work.
