Talk:Guild Wars 2
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The article is misleading - she has not said anything about GW2 being anounced. Gaile Gray has stated that "some of what you've read is right, some of it is wrong, and quite a bit of it is misleading" and that "The good news is that the top game publications in Europe and the U.S. are preparing feature articles with major Guild Wars news ... In the U.S., PC Gamer will begin delivery of the May issue to subscribers on March 15, and it will be on newsstands on April 3". Interpretting this to mean something specifically about a presumed GW2 is speculative at best. --67.168.14.198 04:05, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD does not apply
The old AfD was cloed because there was no information on this game. This information has now been released. The relevant text must now be moved here from Guild Wars. Please do not reverse this without discussion. Eric Sandholm 15:29, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
- Have you read this article where these new purported details were announced? If so, please cite your sources. Incidentally, I would claim that an article on a game to barely enter beta in 2008 doesn't meet WP:N by a long shot, but the AfD renom can wait a few weeks. — Kaustuv Chaudhuri 15:40, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

- No, the PC Gamer magazine for May is out for subscribers only at the moment. Some fans have received it and written up articles on some fansites. This is one, for example. I will add the sources as soon as I have the May issue in my hands, if they aren't added sooner. About WP:N, surely a highly anticipate sequel to a top-shelf game meets whatever notability criteria Wikipedia uses! The Burning Crusade was created months and months before its release, for example.

[edit] Concept Art Copyright?
We could always wait and get the art from the offical GW Wiki since apparently there is concept art of the charr and so on. --198.254.16.201 18:26, 21 March 2007 (UTC) http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Image:CharrConceptArt.jpg
- Before copying anything from the official wiki, be sure to double check their copyright license. I need to double check, but I believe that it explicitly states that certain content is not released under GFDL - among which were in-game images and game renders - I can't recall if concept art was included in that. The website guildwars.com does have a gallery section which they've permitted fansites to use images from in the past to use in documentation. Any concept art used should likely come from that source to ensure no copyvio issues. --161.88.255.139 23:15, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Plus that is concept art from GW1, after all the Charr were first shown in the orginal game. That art has long since bee made public and does not pertain to GW2.--68.192.188.142 01:26, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] What does this mean?
""Sidekicks" will allow powers from high-level characters to transfer to lower-leveled friendly characters." —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.47.193.209 (talk) 21:32, 29 March 2007 (UTC).
