Sorry , but i have a question , if GW2 is going to be an e-sport , what does that mean?

[Snebzor]

@Qioxz I explain it all in this video.

[Chalkmaster01]

I watch a lot of SC2, but do not really play any other e-Sport game, so don't follow the pro scenes for other e-Sports. I am very likely to get heavily into GW2, so being able to watch high-level play and a developing online community would be an honour. There is a reasonable awareness between the different e-Sports games via shared events (notably dreamhack and MLG). If GW2 can make enough noise, the e-Sports community will definitely listen. I would love to see GW2 become an e-Sport!!!

[Snebzor]

@Chalkmaster01 I'm uber excited to see what happens! I love watching competitive Starcraft II! It's really exciting and the commentators really make it a sport.

[Wynrider]

i have been in vacation about watching and waiting for GW updates :) is CBT happening already? :D

[Snebzor]

@Wynrider Yes, closed beta is currently happening. 

[SC2Vatiar]

They did everything they could possibly do to make it a hugely e-sport orientated : little teams, balanced gear, inventive maps and importance of teamplay

[MrFrostbite4]

@dreadfulusername Have to say i agree with that

[dreadfulusername]

@MrFrostbite4 these new types of mmo's i think are going to evovle faster then the gw2 and tera online, i think the next change in mmo's are now going to be good graphics but with more to it gw2 is bringing it with tera but the next generation in 5-6 years im hoping blows the mind out off mmo's for one thing we allready know the next generation should be mmorpg, mmofps, and mmosifi is what im hearing in the next 5 years

[MrFrostbite4]

@dreadfulusername Ahh yeah i value what you say, its different but not revloutinary... probaly true but im so hyped for it because its just something new that i have seen in an MMO and im happy that tera has it aswell because at least from now on newer MMO's can develop this and make it perfect. But for now its just what we can get atm :D

[dreadfulusername]

@MrFrostbite4 i do agree the pvp looks amazing and it takes skill and i love the pvp for a ranger i will say that would be my pvp char but i just would like more types, it could but for alot of people watching something they have been playing for years 10 years the same matches are kind of boring, but the games look good and its doing something was is new but its not truely revalutionary but are more then slightly new. but its close to tera, but swtor has new types, hope guild wars does

[MrFrostbite4]

@dreadfulusername Well your the first person i have heard that has had that point of view on PVP like that... many others said it was the best experiance.. but not everyone is going to like the same thing. But all im saying is that no MMO for a very long time is going to have as much innovative PVP as GW2. Its just very skillful and mindblowing for an MMO. I can see very 'pro' PVPers coming into GW2 for its PVP and it becoming an e-sport. It has quite a lot of potential

[dreadfulusername]

@MrFrostbite4 in pvp more internesting modes like av but make it good well its your whole team knowing a objective and clasing straight on with the other players on the pvp match with a pvp master and following what they are saying voice chat in them all, i want amazing pvp, if they arent going 50 end game people raids i want steller pvp

[dreadfulusername]

@MrFrostbite4 i sucked not really i got second place each time, it is pretty bad in ways its the same thing but better graphics, but i think tera isnt as good with pvp from what iv played of the beta resently, the only thing better with guild wars is the moving around bit, but you could still do that with any other game. but its just more opened for doing so but with ranged its well better for them with weapons going back to long and short makes it better for rangers, im waiting for a revalution

[MrFrostbite4]

@dreadfulusername From what i have heard Tera online PVP is really poor and this is from Terafans.com they say its nothing new except the targeting system

[MrFrostbite4]

@dreadfulusername Is it coz you sucked hard? because i have played it aswell and it is based on SKILL, so why are you hating i guess your used to stadning in one place and casting trying to 3 shot people like in WoW? this will become an e-sport. because its a balanced type of game. with Dynamic combat

[graywish]

GW2 becomes WCG = extreme losses for many other mmorpg games.
