Guild Wars 2

I hear ya…..nothing like seeing constant Chuck Norris jokes in chat from 12 year olds

So how do we join the guild chat? And do we need to be contacted in game to actually join?

Haha yes, I’m finding that out! I spend lots of pennies on waypoints.

In game money seems hard to come by though. I’m level eleven now and only have around five silver. It looks like I need ten to buy a manual from the trainer. Haven’t really bought any gear, just what I’ve found

Are you willing to participate in Operation: UNION’S project. Yup

Thanks for all the info. Especially about switching weapons changing my spells,that makes sense. Very cool, opens up a lot of options then for an elementalist.

Still debating whether to keep playing the game solo or finding a casual family type guild.

Fort Aspenwood. I guess I can ask questions, part of the reason I like this game is that its not the same old same old. So Im still a noob.

Like I hit level 10 on my Elementalist, and all my spells changed….And all i had for each element was the first one, I had to keep using them to get the upgrades. All the while getting my ares kicked! Does that happen every 10 levels, or???

I meant chat in more of a general sense…people asking questions in chat and general BSing. I’ve gotten rezzed multiple times in game, and always say thanks, but am never acknowledged

Only level 10 and still figuring things about the game out, but I love it. One thing I notice is, unlike EQ, WoW, Vanguard and Rift, hardly anyone uses chat…its way too quiet, even though I do see other players running around.

Anyone know why this is particular to GW?

Everquest had first person. Has nothing to do with being a shooter. Sure, I zoomed out when I was in an area full of mobs, but I like seeing the world thru the eyes of my character.

..but for the life of me I can’t figure out how to go into first person view. I really have trouble playing while staring at my toon’s back

Wow…that’s insane. It’s difficult for me to manuever this way very well. Has there been any mention of it being implemented?

I’ve read the online manual and done some searching, I pretty much understand the camera options. But I’m tired of looking at my toon’s back.

How do I get to first person view?
