Stress Test Tomorrow AUgust 2nd - Just Announced!

From the GW2 Twitterverse:

We've got a stress test coming up tomorrow. Here are all the details: http://ow.ly/cFxlE

We will be conducting a stress test on Thursday, August 2 from 12:00 Noon PACIFIC Time to 4:00 PM PACIFIC Time.

Unlike previous stress tests, we will be actively working on the game during the event, so you might experience connectivity problems or discover features that are not working as designed. Any issues you experience are a result of the rigorous conditions of the stress test, and are in no way representative of the state of the game at launch. By participating in this stress test, you’re helping us make Guild Wars 2 a better game. Thanks for your cooperation—we’ll see you in-game! ~RB2

I didnt know about that, thanks for the info! :)

Sweet! Just what we (or I at least) needed! :)

Cool, but does anyone know what time that is for Europe? GMT+1?? Cant seem to find a converter on the net...

NVM I know it, see you guys ingame then ? :)

If the GMT + 1 time is now: 10:37 pm - and west coast is currently 2:37pm then you have an 8 hour difference correct?

So 12:00 noon tomorrow on the west coast will be 8:00 pm GMT+1 time... me thinks.

Headstart time also announced: 12:01 A.M PST on August 25th.

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Guild+Wars+2+Headstart+Begins&iso=20120825T00&p1=137 this one is for the headstart at release.

But tomorrow its the same time except its gonna be 12:00PM.

I know its coming 3pm my time. I suggest to try logging earlier at headstart/tomorrow because they did open a few hours earlier than the announced time for the last BWE.

Wont be joining you guys, I will be at work then :(

Just what you needed???? Stress?

There's a patch. At first it seems like it's huge, but it finishes pretty quickly.

This is just what I needed, yep. This month gonna be so boring for me until GW2 release then I have a few games coming after GW2...

I really need my GW2 dose today. lol

I was out of town for bwe 3 and now I'm out of town for this :/ enjoy, guys!

I should be there rerolling/leveling (PvE) my mesmer and maybe my necromancer if im in the mood. Im going to level in the human/norn starter zone probably.

Just send me a friend request ingame: Koboltz.4391 if you want to join. Feel free to send one on the website here too.

The guild system seems to be completely broken :(

One of the issues is that we are not seen as being online.. across server or on the same server.

I'm a poor workin stiff so not sure if I'll make it or not..

It was interesting while it lasted!

They fixed that quickly. I'm impressed with Arenanet. This means that at headstart/release such issues will be dealt with quickly too.

Yep, it was laggy. It felt like they added a load of bricks to the server.

I had no lag problems. I even increased the graphical settings (i was playing on the lowest previously).

It was fun but so short and it passed so fast for me.. :pinch:

Oh well, at least Ive got to play it again. Its going to help me a little to wait until the headstart.. ;)

Good WvW action though.

No problem here, at the beginning I was able to log in,create some characters then when I tried to get ingame with a character it didnt work. Took me like 15mins to finally get in.

Then ive got 2disconnects thats it, one because of a new build and another for ???reason.

I never tried friend list things ingame until yesterday but when I tried to send some nothing happened not sure if it was buggy or just the way it works.

Except that no problems or lag.

Another stress test tomorrow August 9th, from 12:00 PM (Noon) to 4:00 PM Pacific time.
