Downloads happen when you start it up after a update - usually takes like 2 minutes max...

i heard WoW is down every wednesday afternoon?

/edit when you pass through a portal it only takes like 10 seconds..

not saying its a bad game as i play it myslf sometimes. but for me i have always found manyfiles needed to be downloaded each time i log on.

If you were to log on Everyday there wouldn't be a lot.
Usually it's just skill changes and bug fixes which are a few files.

or week end events.

Wow it only takes like 10 seconds or so like you said to go through a portal, there's only 2 main maps and loads of different ones for instances. On GW there's like a portal for every region and main city...

[Mr.Sam]

wow a whole 10 seconds.
Plus WoW is 8/9£ per month?

I don't care about the price tag, you pay more for better things, and Wow is much better than GW in mine and alot of other people's opinions. I'd rather play a game I find more fun and pay more than play a boring game and pay nothing.

Guys, aside from these pointless arguments about download times and costs, it has to be said that the PvP mechanics in GuildWars are far more complexed and balanced than in WoW. GW can hold successful, fair and controlled tournaments which rely more on a player's skill to win the matches, rather than the time they have spent griding levels.

Due to the open ended nature of WoW, it is impossible to control the gameplay in a way that allows a tight and balanced PvP structure to exist.

Granted, for players who enjoy Role Playing and PvE over competetive play, WoW is far more rewarding, but in Guildwars PvE just isn't the main emphasis of the game anymore, and in my opinion it never was. For these reasons, as I have said before, you cannot critise the 2 games for features they do or do not have.

If you really want to have a debate about the differences between the 2 games, you need to cut the petty arguments and compare them, not criticise.

My friend plays it, I think his name is Cymro on it.

Do you know him?

Lol if it's based on skill a level 1 could beat a 20? It's pointless levelling then.
