Yep beta weekend was amazing very few bugs ... I think i found like 3 ... 2 skill events that wouldnt start and then one engineer turret that wouldnt recharge on being destroyed.. Other then that the game ran wonderfully on high settings even in events with 50 people and much more enemies.

Really that was not the same for us. Everyone was extremely helpfull, People were rezzing gawna every time she died 

With regards to the de-leveling, simply put, it's fucking awesome.
Do you really like a certain area, but you leveled past it before it was complete?  Not a problem.  You can finish it any time you like.  It will still be fun and somewhat challenging when you're capped.  Hell, even the other starter areas can be explored if you want, without worrying about being over level.
Do you have a friend that doesn't play as much, or have a guildy that you want to run with?  Not a problem.  You can still play with them if you're capped, no matter their level.
Your attributes and HP are lowered to a level appropriate place when you enter an area beneath you, but your gear and traits remain, so while it will still be challenging to you  it will also be a little easier than it would have been at level.  Just not by that much.
Do you like roflstomping shit?  Too fucking bad.  Log into DDO instead.

It really is.  It's a simple, yet elegant solution to many problems that plague MMOs.
Play with your friends without worrying about level differential, and lower level content never becomes obsolete.

I might, I have hopes this will satisfy some of my old DAOC pvp cravings. If not, then meh.

Yes, it should. Structured 5-on-5 PvP, and WvWvW (server vs server vs server).
I've never been a fan of PvP in MMOs, but I had a fucking blasty blast doing it last BWE.
Entering 5x5 raises you to max level, opens all of your skills, gives you some skill points to spend on traits, and equips you with standardized gear.  So it really does come down to player skill, and the kid in Mom's basement who plays 90 hours a week has zero advantage because of grinding out gear.
WvWvW levels you to max, and that's it.  So skills, traits and gear are relevant (and someone who is actually capped will have an advantage over a level 5 guy pretending to be level 80), but the battles are so fucking massive that the difference will be minimal and no one will even notice the difference in the big picture.

Yep.  I already have plans to veg on the recliner from the moment I get home from work Friday until midnight Sunday.
What server are you guys on?

We're on Deldrimor!  I have to work for a bit on Saturday, but will def be around Friday night and Sunday!  Probably starting late afternoon on Saturday depending on how fucked our inventory situation is.

OMFG DAWN.  This was our most recent exchange from this morning:
Me:  Can you give me a date for when this image intensifier will be shipping from your factory?  I need to let our customer know an ETA and you said you would know by this morning.
Dawn:  I heard back from the factory.  They should be able to ship one unit out next week.

WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?!  Should be?  When next week?  Like Monday?  (#*&$)@#($*@#)*@$&)#(*$@_)#
