dont need 2 gfx cards, you can make do with 1 screen, but you will have to deal with playing in a small window instead of full screen mode. most gfx cards support dual screen by default and guild wars 2 is a dx9 game, so really as long as you have a decent card youd be able to live stream full screen and probably med-high settings with just single card setup depending on the card of course. Anyone interested should check out XSPLIT.

The main popular people that did gw2 livestreams you wont be able to join their group, but we should be able to get lower exposure. I say this because TotalBiscuit did 2 live streams for gw2 and a few of the popular machinima personalities also did live streams. Those people are kind of out of reach unless someone knows them personally. But live streaming isnt too difficult, there is some trial and error when you first start out, but its not rocket science. Xsplit will eventually be pay to use though, so just keep that in mind. twitch tv servers are also in america and europe, so asian countries may have some issues doing 720p+ streams, but you cant do those streams until you are a partner with twitch anyway, so no worries there.

Basically 2 screens make it so you can easily play the game and enjoy the graphics while paying attention to users that are watching the live stream. The most popular live stream personalities will respond to questions and a few other things while they are playing the game. Audience interaction is important to gaining viewers when you initially start out. Of course if you are like totalbiscuit and have 4k viewers as soon as you start your stream you don't have to worry because people will come watch you anyway. Day[9] is the same way. he has like 4k+ viewers as soon as he starts streams.

thx so much for the info
thx to my 24 ince screen i can make my game smaler and still see the chat i think XD

i saw xplit and its paying softwear
bummer -.-

np Goady i no you wil find a good 1

btw i dunno if you no the info
but i hear now the full release date of GW2 is now in December -.-
plz dont tell its tru

Not sure where you got that date from Gen
But none of my sources tells any date

And there is still the 30 June date set by the shops, which is the only speculative date out there as far as I know
(combined with 3 days early access for those that pre-purchased the game, it's 27th and converting it to NA time it's 26th)

some from mmohut.com
says that gamespot says that it wil be december

i rely hope its not true i cant w8 that long QQ

I personally think it will be released within the next 2 months. They are heavy stress testing atm. Then I'd wager maybe 2 more beta weekends.

They have already taken alot of money, they cant hold on to long to release.

my course end around june 15,should have time to buy after it is done then :)

Nice one Shu
The guess is still launch somewhere end of June so you'd be just in time if it really is that

Stress test starting in 7min ~

Fromg GW2 FB ~

We know you are all very eager to begin the next Beta Weekend Event.
Our community did an amazing job in the previous Beta Weekend Event and stress tests, providing our team with great feedback.
Our goal has always been to do this right and treat the beta testing process as what it should be: a way to work out the bugs beforehand and give you the best game we possibly can at launch.

With that as our goal, the development team is working extremely hard to address your current feedback and prepare Guild Wars 2 for the next Beta Weekend Event.
Once they're finished, they'll be ready for you to head back to Tyria for the next phase of testing.

We're going to adhere to a monthly schedule as much as feedback and development allow, so it may be a little more or a little less each time, depending on how things progress.
For now, we will have more information on upcoming Beta Weekend Events and stress tests as soon as we're able, and we thank each of you for being an important part of the creation of Guild Wars 2.

The way i am reading this.
like a week + before any word on the next BWE.
And end of june launch just flew out the window.

Yea from the looks of this June isn't going to be the date anymore

either that or they are just making us think that :P


But yeh I was thinking it sounded like a delay for release too :(

Beta Weekend Event 2 will begin on Friday, June 8th, at noon PDT (GMT-7) and will run until Sunday, June 10th, at 11:59 p.m. PDT (GMT-7).

maybe adding the other races?

Another pretty big update :o

as long as the updates keep improving the game/fixing any small bugs etc all good! Nice to see they are staying on top of it.

They could fully release the game now and it would still be better than 100% of other mmo releases.
Only other game i have seen that had a fairly polished release was Rift.

This upcoming BWE:

Keep Your Characters, No wipe
explorable mode of the Ascalonian Catacombs dungeon 35+
A level 25 to 35 map just outside Lion’s Arch, Gendarran Fields
the Mystic Forge has arrived in Lion’s Arch.will have to test this (drop in unneeded gear and see what you get out of it) seems like 4 pieces of gear needed to work.
WvW battle underground in a new “mini dungeon” beneath the central map.(the Dark Room)skill challenges, dynamic events, and even jump puzzles to the WvW maps.
Automated PvP Tournaments. Each tournament pits eight teams of five players against each other.
Improved Overflow Servers if one person from party gets sent to the overflow the rest of the party can now follow.
Improved Chat (chat bubbles :( local and map chat changes a bit)
easy-to-use key-binding interface, which now allows you to bind modifier keys.
UI Improvements: Mini map is now a resizeable rectangle and the dodge meter is wraped around the health bubble.
Tiers for Skills: each profession’s elite and utility skills into three different tiers, or levels.When you get enough skills in one tier, you unlock the next level of skills.(more scalable and expandable can add new skills in later easier.)
Each beta player will receive 500 free gems on their account

The new map has me i must see what's around the next corner.

Improved Overflow Servers if one person from party gets sent to the overflow the rest of the party can now follow.

glad they fixed that. Was very anoying when i was trying to teach my wife how to play and we kept landing in different areas so we couldn't do the same
quests

Aye
Anyway guys remember next BWE in less than 6 hours!!!
