The Final Countdown – Guild Wars 2 Launch Times

August 28th, 2012—the day Guild Wars 2 launches—is fast approaching. Everyone here at ArenaNet is anxiously counting the days right along with every Guild Wars 2 fan. In just a few weeks, the servers will go live and each of us will be setting out on our adventures in Tyria!
As you may have seen, we host a countdown timer on the front page of our official website. The information below will give you specific details about times and dates based on whether you pre-purchased, pre-ordered, or are picking up a copy of the game on release day.

Pre-Purchase with 3-Day Headstart: Everyone who pre-purchased Guild Wars 2 will enjoy three full days of Headstart Access. The three-day Headstart Access will officially begin at 0:00 AM Pacific time (GMT -7:00) on August 25th. However, please note that in order to ensure that we’re fully prepared for that fateful hour we may bring servers online up to 3 hours prior. If you’re a player committed to getting in first to grab that character name of your dreams you’ll want to be keeping an eye on things during that time period.

I'm not sure it was wise of them to announce that, LOL. Undoubtedly people would've tried earlier and found out anyway, but now they've effectively moved their Headstart up by three hours. If I knew better how to use Vent, I'd probably be on there too..

Argh... They really don't want me to sleep, do they? :laugh:

My plans were to go to bed early and set my alarm for 3:30am... This would give me enough time to make coffee, shower, brush my teeth and login at 4am. Now it's sort of in limbo... I don't mind if they start early, I just wish it was a definite time, rather than a 3 hour window.

Oh my .. This is going to break the record for unsuccessful attempts to login to a game. :laugh:

Ventrilo party sounds like fun :) Rodger if you need some help setting up vent and stuff, I'm willing to help you get started at some point. We do have some simple instructions in the welcome center here: http://stonewallvanguard.com/wc/communication/vent

Same vent server - Dwyana's Tavern channel....

We use the same vent server as Stonewall Fleet and Knights of Stonewall. We're going to be changing the room layout soon to support Guild Wars 2 (at this moment the "private" (mission) rooms are named for STO and SW:TOR but we can still use them, they're just names).

Dwayna's Tavern is the GW2 "public" room and the "Stonewall Lounge" is a room for everybody, meant as a much more general none-game specific room. But don't feel like you can't go into the STO and SW:TOR public rooms if there's people in there you want to get to know.

The reason we keep using the same vent server, is the same reason we share the same social network and forums. It's so we don't have to lose friends because we're playing different games.

Well it looks like I'll be staying up to mash the login button then. I'll also get on vent so I don't feel so alone.
