The main IncGamers.com site is sporting two new articles which have been put together over the past 48 hours. First up is my article after playing during the first 24 hours of the headstart going live, and what a blast I had, just to experience the game in its final state was really enjoyable.
The second article has been posted by Tim which looks specifically at WvWvW gameplay and it’s a great read as he describes the Defense of Dreaming Bay.

Most of you will actually be enjoying the game, taking in the breathtaking scenery and enjoying the action but there are those who like to reach the level cap as fast as possible. A player named Surfeuze has taken the prize to reach level 80 first with help from  his guild called War Legend.
According to ArenaNet, Surfeuze raced through the content in PvE up to 60 then his guild helped him craft his way up to 80 by supplying materials. ArenaNet have now checked that the player reached the cap in a legitimate fashion and Mike O’Brian commented:
I am not a big fan of the race to the max level cap, it is not a true indication on how hard or easy an MMO is. I always think you should enjoy the game as intended by the developers.
