I don't think I'll ever agree with their definition of "press".
But hey, atleast we'll get some more high resolution pics. We could certainly use more of those.
Some Twitter Action going on:
Looks as though the NDA is being lifted Feb 20th 6AM PST, 17 days from now.Johnathon Ross - Destructoid "Invites are out for the Guild Wars 2 beta weekend. Expect an impressions post on Destructoid from me later this month!"
Devin Connors - Tomsguide "GUILD WARS 2 BETA! Operation High-Five Everyone In Sight is go!"
Charles Onyett- IGN "Guild Wars 2 beta invite acquired. Look for coverage at 6 AM pacific on February 20."
Curse Network "Guild Wars 2 CBT invite here we come! Expect lots of juicy details later this month. :] #guildwars2"

Closed beta started back in December (the 16th to be specific)
Right now they're doing a press beta and then we'll have beta events for the rest of the folks.. then hopefully release soon after![]()

No.. as of right now the best way to get in would be signing up for the newsletter and pray for an invite.. there hasn't been any clear cut application process to get into to beta... My chance of getting into it is as good as everyone else's..

Just to make a clarification:
The NDA will NOT be lifted... select members of the press will be allowed to talk about experiences.. but that's about it.

I don't understand why they are doing it like this. It seems lik.. I don't know.. The game looks soo good but the company... Goddamnit don't $#@! this up Arenanet.. What the hell are you doing?
...Not the company.... their idiotic Marketing Dept. The Company is fine. Mike O'Brien, Eric Flannum, Jon Peters, Colin Johanson, Jeff Grubb, their Artists.... all of them are super $#@!ing awesome people! But their Support & Marketing (and the "skill Balancing guy" Isiah Cartwright) heads are all a bunch of stubborn jerks who have always refused to listen to their Veteran players. Infact they actually blame the Veteran players for most of their woes. They also do whatever the hell they want apparently and O'Brien & NcSoft just let them apparently. (<-- and this is why I'll never ever be in any of their Betas, b/c the biggest flaw with everyone there is that they never grew up so can't handle criticism). Their Fanboy Fansites aren't any better though, I get infractions on them anytime I post anything even remotely as scathing as this. Dedication to their game isn't enough, you have to ignore all their flaws too if you wanna be in their inner-circle.
