Question for Presale of GW2

Hi guys,
in a few days GW2 will officially be released, and i want to play as soon as possible, because, unfortunately i couldn't get and Closed Beta Key and didnt buy the game yet.

So thats exactly what i wanna do soon. I heard players that bought GW2 before release will get access to the servers 3 days earlier. My question: Is this true? And if yes, will i get the package from amazon(.de) at 25th or 28th? As i said earlier, i want to play as soon as possible. Alternatively i could buy it in a local store, but its a little bit more expensive there.

Thanks guys.

Best regards,
Yusago™

If you have a closer look at the details at amazon, you will spot the start of the game.

And yes, it's true. People who pre-purchase GW2 get the privileges to start 3 days earlier.
I would recommend buying there: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Hi, thanks for the quick answer.

I would buy it there, but if i order there, do i get a download and key via e-mail, or they send me the box at 25th?

You only get your code via email, nothing you can touch.

But that means i have to download. Guess it will needs several hours, right? Is known how many Gigabyte it contains?

13-17GB

here you can buy it from here
but buy it with paysafecard tho....cos with paypal and all that you need to provide ID card ........
either way if you buy it from here you will recive the key to your email + the key will have 3 days headstart.........
and btw,when downloading the client,it downloads max speed,it shouldnt take lot time to download it if you have ok speed 1-2 mb

You can allready download it from the site, even without a Beta Access.

It might get some last minute stuff, but thats not a problem.

its around 16gb I believe, takes around 5hrs to download for me.

Can you give me a link, where can i download gw2 yet ?

There you go, sir.

Okay guys, thanks so far.

I was in the city few hours ago and what could i spot in the store? Guild Wars 2 ~ 50€. Because of my slow internet connection, and the disadvantage of not-having-paypal i decided to buy it. My question now is: Can i start playing at 25th or at 28th? Theres not such an information on the box.

Any ideas?

Sorry for doublepost, but does in fact nobody know that?
