    Through regular gameplay, how fast were you gaining influence/hour? In other words: without focusing on maximizing influence/hour gain, how fast were you gaining it?

    The e-mail I recieved was written in 3 languages: English, French and German. In inglish it says that beta starts at Friday noon and ends Sunday noon, but in the other two it says that it starts Friday 21:00 (GMT+1) and ends Monday 09:00 (GMT+1). Does that mean that Europeans will have 12 more hours to play the beta? Does that mean that there will be siparated timezones for Europe and America?

    21:00 is 9pm, 9:00 is 9am. 

    should visit your school more often I guess... 

    timezones? no? didn't hear? 

    also... how you do 21-12 and get 12 hours?

    Not one of those commas belongs in that sentence. It's really painful for me to read.

    Please think twice before you say something about other person because here you have a very big mistake. I know what is pm and what is am, just I wrote in 24h because its more easy to count. And I counted the time very right:

    America => start Friday noon and end Sunday noon => 2 days exactly = 24h*2=48h

    Europe => start Friday 21:00 and end monday 09:00 => 2 full days (Saturday + Sunday) + 3h from Friday + 9h from Monday = 24h*2+3h+9h=60h

    So we got America 48h and Europe 60h => 60h-48h=12h

    Also you need to read the rules of this site and learn to respect other people.

    I still hope that someone is going to answer my question. Does the Europe got 12h more for the beta testing?

    No, it runs from friday noon till sunday 11:59 PM, aka, 1 minute before midnight. 60 hours, well 59h and 59m to be exact. AM is before noon and PM after that.

    THAT'S what made you react? Jeez.

    Vlad, America's beta testing ends at 11:59 PM. Which is 23:59 in the 24 hour format, not 11:59. So no. We all get 60 hours.

    That would be cool if they had somewhere you could throw out old gear and it would be recycled into something new.

    America's beta doesn't end at noon on sunday; it ends at midnight.  11:59pm = 1 minute before midnight.  Everyone gets 2 days, 12 hours.

    this statement made me think that you have no idea about timezones at all. and can't do any math. 

    then you tried to recover from the fail presenting it like you have the idea and you counted it right but failed again.

    because you counted the wrong thing for no particular reason (like you misread when beta ends in US and that leaded to miscounting). 

    then you still insisted that you counted it right but that was that damn bad engrish that failed you. 

    so instead of switching your fails from one to another you would better tell how "siparated timezones" work... and wtf is this, so we can answer your original question.

    We all get the same amount of time.

  • V-L-A-DV-L-A-D Member Posts: 50

    OK guys thanks! xD so I didn't understood right about the ending of US beta, really sorry for this annoying post. But @Erindal I can't understand what the hell are you doing on a community if you can't be friendly with other people. You just could simply answer like all others did and not saying any s**t about me or anyone else, or you just could stay silence. And what a big shame for you to be member since 2006 and have 29 posts.

    I'm not sure I'm understanding this - are you looking for duplicated art?  Or for recycling centers?

     

    My question - are Collectors in the game like GW1?

    Lol, what I meant is that one of a Beta tester cannot find any recycle of a same interior design in a building on GW2 city.

    Every storey of a building consist of different interior design and npc.

    So I was wondering whether is it true or false.

    4: He was pretty clear with his question and already had it answered by MikkelB. Don't blame him for your inability to read the question right. He also didn't count improperly, he just counted the wrong thing.

    5: Stop being such a jerk.

    I will be trying to make a full test on the pets in PVE, I plan to test as many as I can find and go to WvW to test ones I cannot. As of the stress test some pets worked and others didnt which in my mind means they were working on it. Also pet AI wasn't listed in the known issues.. so lets hope they fixed it!

    I wont be making an indepth DPS review or anything but I do intend on testing every pet to see if any are still not working.

    xmenty wants(i THINK) to know if they are recycling buildings and hills and such.. I think it was a FF game that was famous for its recycled rocks and hills.

    I think I can answer your question Delvie, pretty sure no.. the trophies are vendor, salvage or items used in crafting.
