GW2 trailer - hidden concept art

[unbeatablpab]

At 0:53

"COME AT ME BRO"

[CKproduktions]

not so hidden is it? i jst saw all theese pics, i watched through the ending of the teaser trailer frame by frame :P

[DarkPropeth]

0:18 -> that's Dhuum.... . With sowrd instead of scythe. So he changed from D to W..?

[SweetZoid]

Thats not Dhuum.

[yes4me]

cool 5/5

[KnightDrakonic]

at 1st i thought the raven Norn was some kinda big monster. and it is very possible that they might add more races. look it up, they only say "these are the races so far". if they do add more races, than i wana b a Naga!

[C410V1370]

Woot! Raven form and I thought that the Silver Eagle armor was cool HAHA.

[KerosAohco]

At 2:10 it shows what seems to be a Norn in Raven form. I speculate that the Norn will be able to turn into beast forms other than the bear, such as the Raven and Wolf. There are other animal spirits they honor, but the ones that were emphasized in GWEN were the Bear, Wolf, and Raven.

[KerosAohco]

Also, I hope that expansions will be used such as other traditional MMOs. I believe it would make adding content easier; like new races. Speaking of races, I hope Centaurs, Dwarves, Undead, and perhaps the Tengus, could be other playable races in the future. They did play a big role in the GW lore and game play.

[KerosAohco]

Another thing, maybe mounts will be available? Not flying mounts, but mounts like horses, giant reptiles (dinosaurs?), machines, etc. According to the race or area in which your character plays in.

[jinzu33]

why restrict a certain mount to an area. That just takes away the fun.

[KerosAohco]

I should have explained more. I was thinking that you can get certain mounts indigenous to certain areas, but once you get them you get to keep them, like a pet or such.

[SweetZoid]

Yes there will be mounts.

[rschiffb769]

@SweetZoid of course there will, they wouldnt have given us the giant Devourer to ride in EOTN, if they werent gonna implement something similar in GW2

[jinzu33]

scrap the undead and dwarves. that would be lame IMO.

[KerosAohco]

Maybe, it's just a thought if the company decides to add new playable races.

[rschiffb769]

@jinzu33 Well the Undead are aligned with the Dragons anyways, so that would be stupid in the first place.

[MaxDorval]

well palawa joko control some undeads too..

[rschiffb769]

@MaxDorval Except he has completely broken the human presence in Elona, I cant imagine he, or any of his undead would be willing, or welcomed as allies to the fight against the dragons. and we dont even know whether or not Joko is allied with the dragons as well or not. Regardless, Joko isnt a good guy, he only aided our characters in OGW, becuase Varesh's minions had infested his palace, and he needed us to clear them out.

[moosiesan]

i thing tengu will be one of the new races if gw2 its geting a expension like wow

[moosiesan]

if there comes a expension i think u can plas as tengu and if u can play in elona i think undead 2

[MaxDorval]

I want centaur D=

[alphajura]

2:20 Charr flamethrower? o.0!!!

[storm808mn]

yeah rofl :D

[taenixus]

Well, there is 3 forms(blessing, but those are form skills). Ursan, Raven, Wolven. Who knows? Maybe Norns will gain ability albo to transform into Wolves and Raves too

[elboricua577]

Look at the trailer in a frame by frame. You'll see Norn in bear and wolf forms. Perhaps they'll turn into humanoid forms of the animals they praise.

[Ebamber3]

i think all races r gna have der strong and weak points along wid unique skills and attributes xD

but dats jus my opinion xD

[RonicBeatsz]

confirmed, Norn can shapeshift in Raven, Snow Leopard, Wolves and Bears.

[madskillz1o1]

2:10 The Norn has wings ? O.o wat!!

[PizzaSchinken]

i dont think that was a norn ;)

[madskillz1o1]

What could it possibly be ? it's a bear, right ?

[PizzaSchinken]

no, do u know ''Talon Silverwing''?

i think its there race :)

u can find him when u press P for groups :)

[madskillz1o1]

Those are Tengu, and that shit ain't nothin like it. Tengu have beaks anyway. Read the manual xP

[kineticsoul22]

Epic.

[jacknak]

At :54 revamped kanaxai?

[ZeppelinxOfxLed]

this artwork is amazing. hands down.

[VictorrMusic]

Derv/Norn

Fire Ele/Charr

[PenguinPokerPlatinum]

2:17 - Charr with flamethrower

In case you were wondering :D

[boredperson0]

in the 3 rd picture theres definitely something in the smoke at the top right

0:51 theres a dragon in background

pause at 2:33 - 2:34 on the wall it looks like shiro's face (the charr also appears to become similar to a burning titan)

[gigastrike2]

Oh my god...that's not Shiro...that's Primordus...and that means that that charr...is becoming a destroyer. Why did the destroyers have to come back?

[dikkiedikownd]

Maybe because when you finish EoTN you get to see a cinematic where that fire Dragon awakens, maybe the destroyers came from him in the first place..

[PenguinPokerPlatinum]

Imagine that the destroyers were nothing more than him turning in his sleep, thinking bad things about the world. As you said, he awakened AFTER you finish EotN.

[dikkiedikownd]

Ye but he had to came there in the first place.. so maybe he went to sleep and awakens again

[PenguinPokerPlatinum]

That's what I said. I'm just wondering how powerful these can be, if one of them can create the destroyers while asleep.

[hiya000]

well giga in EOTN you dont really kill Primordus...you kill his second in command.....that being said the destroyers can come back.......if anet feels like it that is.

[Ebamber3]

but characters in GW2 will obviously b more powerful nd so it wont take much to kill destroyers

u could probly even solo dem

[MaxDorval]

u can solo the whole game just chek the site =D

[SweetZoid]

Not the whole game,but a part of the game.

[MaxDorval]

i know. there will still be group events.

[gigastrike2]

*sigh* not this again. I said that because I hated fighting the destroyers. It wasn't because I can't grasp simple concepts. It was because the destroyers were an annoying part of EotN, and I really hoped Anet would just move on.

[hiya000]

well......good luck on your part about the destroyers.(since Primordus is still alive) I found them to be a good challenge, but everyone has there opinion so i'll leave it at that.

[gigastrike2]

So what's the deal with the first picture? It looks a lot like Ascalon, but could life have really come back in just a few hundred years? A new city in Charr territory?

[Leartoon]

I think it's ruin of Ascalon. It's not one of the hidden concept art pictures, it's actually a real-time in-game footage screenshot (from official trailer). I've included it because, as "Ascalonian", I wanted to emphesise that even in ruins, Ascalon still stands there... and is waiting for our return... (that is - who knows what we will be able to do there, and how to get there in the first place in GW2)

[IamThehaT]

Is the second picture the dead ascalonians who guard it or w/e?

[Leartoon]

Could be. Or, they could be soulless army of Orr, awaken by the Dragon... We will see :)

[PenguinPokerPlatinum]

We do know that the restless ghosts of Ascalonians stand vigilant until either Rurik's or Kind Adelbern's Fiery Dragon Sword is returned.

[Jontman42]

0:56 reminds me of Rodgort

[alphajura]

Thanks man

[BasketballHoopWTF]

Nice man awesome. Thx for doing this for us fans. :)

[Icko92Man]

[qwelt]

Brilliant ! Thank you for doing this for us :) grats on getting accepted as a reply to their official video too, i bet they weren't expecting it :P

[Leartoon]

Thanx. I was sure that reply will never go along, that they will sue me or send an assassin :) But this is great - when I grow up, I wanna be Charr! :D

[hetral]
