I'd really hope for something earlier than November.... I can barely contain myself as it is.

And I think June/July is optimistic, but it would be perfect for me: I'll have summer break to play it without having to worry about school. I'd really like for it to come out before school starts back up in fall...

So I went ahead and created a Google Docs form just to test the waters and see what the viability of an OCN Guild Wars 2 guild is before hand so that we don't waste too much time trying to form a guild once the game comes around ^_^.

I read through the rules and couldn't find any that I'm violating so hopefully this is okay? If not then I can rectify the issue and that'll be that.

Any comments are welcome if well..this is unwelcome?

something thats been said before about guild wars 2 is that you can join multiple guilds so even if there aren't many interested in an OCN guild i believe it should still be made for those that want to play together, you'll still be able to be a part of other guilds at the same time so it doesn't hurt much.

I don't know if this has been brought up yet, but has anybody noticed how awesome ANet handles texture popping? Instead of the standard "first it's low-rez, then it's hi-rez" that we all hate, I really enjoyed the geometric morphs between textures as you got closer to them.

should be even better once half the graphical effects aren't being churned out by the damn CPU.
