Guild Wars 2's Upcoming Stress Test is Small-Scale, but You don't Want to Miss it

ArenaNet just announced on the Facebook that Guild Wars 2 will conduct a small stress test next Monday on May 14. The test will start at 11 AM PDT and end at 6:00 PM PDT, and it's opened to pre-purchase players only.

Although it's not a regular Beta Weekend, and BTW the developer hasn't detailed the next public beta, it's still a good opportunity for GW2 fans, especially those who missed the previous beta weekend. If you've pre-purchased the game and registered your account, all you need to do is download the beta client at the beta forum.

"With your help, we can conduct important tests and address some of the issues we identified during our first Beta Weekend Event. During this event, all you need to do is play normally with a new or existing character on your Beta account using the same game client. Please note that since this is a stress test of our servers, you may experience some in-game performance issues."

Our writers have made several articles for the previous beta weekend and you can discuss with others about the game at:
