  • — Join Our Seventh Anniversary Celebration!

       (ponedeljak, 23 april 2012 19:00)

    To celebrate the seventh anniversary of Guild Wars, we're hosting an in-game party—and you're invited! Two weeks full of games, sugary treats, and anniversary surprises starts at noon Pacific on April 24. Check out our anniversary page for more details!

  • — Discontinuing support for older versions of Windows

       (petak, 16 mart 2012 19:00)

    Since the launch of Guild Wars in 2005 we’ve stayed locked into our original minimum system requirements. Unfortunately, the game has reached a point where this is preventing us from deploying important features. After serious consideration, we’ve decided that Guild Wars will no longer be supported on Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 98 SE, and Windows ME beginning June 14, 2012. In order to continue to play Guild Wars after this date, we recommend upgrading to a more recent version of Windows.

    Realistically, we do not expect this to impact the vast majority of Guild Wars players. Our logs indicate that fewer than 0.05% of our active players use one of these versions of Windows. Discontinuing support for older versions of Windows allows us to deploy features that will improve account management and security. We will be updating the System Requirements on our websites, but we wanted to provide an advance notice to you so that you can prepare for the change. If you have any questions, please visit the Guild Wars Support Forums:

    https://forum.guildwars.com/forum/forums/tech/Discontinuing-support-for-older-versions-of-Windows/

We're working on some big changes behind the scenes that will result in a sleek, shiny new GuildWars.com.

See you soon on the new website!
