It was announced this week that ArenaNet will be allowing private PVP server for Guild Wars 2. This is a ground-breaking move from the company that introduced the first free-to-play to North American audiences. I will be looking to host a GW2 PVP server here at the WSGF when the game launches.
The beta offers native support for widescreen resolutions, but has a mixed screen change behavior.
It is Hor+ at 16:9 and wider resolutions, but Vert- at 16:10, when compared to 4:3, running the same FOV (can be changed in "Game" menu). Multi-monitor resolutions require a .ini edit, or console command, to be achieved.
