Their first public beta is next weekend, 27th-29th April for those that have pre-ordered.

I never played the original, but with all the different approaches to 'traditional' MMO gameply they're trying with this new one I pre-ordered at the first opportunity. Should be very interesting!

Anyone else pre-ordered?

Pre-ordering wont get you access to the beta weekends you need to pre-purchase.

I bought the CE from MA a few weeks ago :)

Quite right, pre-purchase was what I meant, and was what I did :-)

I played the original for about 3yrs straight. Good game still going today.

I have not pre-purchase GW2, with so many mmos out there last thing I need is another one, I am already trying to keep up with Starwars mmo, Startrek online and I am back with WoW. lol
