Swizzle

The art that comes out of ArenaNet always blows my mind. This is awesome work.

Boo! You beat me to it. Go here instead.

I actually did some stuff in this one.

Wells

YESH

what'd you do in it?

The range in environments and the consistent quality each of them has is really refreshing to see. Good work everyone!

MMMmmmmmMMMmmmmmm... love the design sooooo much!

The greedy part of me wishes they pushed a bit more of "next gen" kinda feel (aka new Aion screens) buuuttt... Guild Wars is one of those mmo's that can be played on a variety of computers and still look damn good.

I can't wait!

Em.

So very sexy. Love what you guys are putting out over there stoofoo.

Fantastic work! Can't wait to play this

achillesian

if they dont introduce a monthly fee for this, i will be buying it

stoofoo

in watching it again I gues i only did one of the crabscropionnonsense monsters and the big firey cage man. There are a lot of monsters to choose from.

There's won't be a subscription.

Jason: I feel pretty good about where we stand right now. "Next gen" is a buzzword and we are doing some pretty dope stuff in our engine.

I HATE mmo fantasy games. Than we visited arenanet with school. I purchases all Guild Wars games because their art just blew my mind. But I still hate mmos.

Nice work, man - the fiery cage creatures were awesome! Fantastic work overall, really atmospheric. I didn't play Guild Wars, but I'll definitely be checking this out.

Amazing art as always... not so keen on the other parts though. Then again, not taken the time to play it myself being the WoW nutt i am

One of those things i'd love to work on.

But, as cool as all the art gets, and it's looking really nice no question about that, i'm really missing some shadows, and it gets more obvious the more detailed everything else gets, i mean, not even blob shadows? they are very simple and would add a lot.

I just watched the 720p trailer. Looks like there are shadows in some places and none in others; the guy in metal armor at the beginning is casting a faint shadow and the monsters that the people are fighting in front of the windmill are also casting shadows. Could be different builds of the game or something.

AMAZING environment work. I can't wait for this damn game.

stoofoo

There are definitely shadows in the game. I do not know what happened in the shots without them. Could be a million things. Wooooops

low odor

looks great

skylebones

That's looking impressive. I'm not much of an MMO guy, but I'll be picking this up.

Btw swizzle, out of all the creepy dude avatars, yours is by far the creepiest.

Cheez

Looks awesome ! Great work Arena dudes !

Some of the classes seem very similar, and there's only 1 "evil" one.

1 Human
1 Magic Nature plants
1 Magic Nature animals (Cold)
1 Magic tech (Cold)
1 Evil

stoofoo

Zac I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. =O

ebagg

Hurry up and release it!! Can't wait to play it and seeing another lengthy art thread over on conceptart.org

ZacD

I meant races

willy-wilson

wow

Waz

Love the art in GW, the concept team does a amazing job, and this trailer shows you guys are doing a great job bringing it to life.

Now the real question is, can you jump in GW2? One of my biggest complaints about the first one was not being able to jump. I know I'm nuts.

MoP

Very cool.

Hazardous

Awesome stuff guys GW2 looks amazing!!! Especially the Grove... dang!!!

Zipfinator

Environments are looking wonderful! Very consistent, creative and beautiful. It looks better than any other MMO I've seen, including AION. The range of creatures also looks huge compared to WoW and such where they just rename the same player model. I love how you guys still are keeping the monthly fees away too.

I think the races are fine. Would rather have 3 very unique human races along with two original ones than a Dwarf, Elf and Human set up.

stoofoo

You can jump. And swim.

I'm pretty happy with the variation of the races, honestly. They are quite diverse in culture, really.

If I can be a little guy who fights with my pet golem I will be a happy gamer indeed.
