Just checked my mail and received email from GW2 team saying that Beta Client is available. Guys check your mail. See you in game :)
Link for you guys who cannot access to the site or don't know where to download:
Have fun
The downloader above is 20 mbs but the game is about 13 gbs total.
Some FAQs:

  • The client will resume itself if you close it while it is downloading. It says 0% when you resume but that is 0% of the remaining files.
  • The download speed on the client may not be the correct speed.
  • I will in US-Crystal Desert.

It is. I just finished downloading it, total size of roughly 13GB. Here's the official link to the patcher (from the guildwars2.com server) if you're eager to get going, just copy/paste so you know I'm not doing any tricky nonsense:

http://cloudfront.guildwars2.com/client/Gw2.exe

edit: Save this file to the directory you want the game installed inside, e.g. C:/Program Files/Guild Wars 2, since it will shove all the downloaded content into the same folder as the patcher.

They mentioned a possible a thing with putting it in your Program Files folder. (Vista/7 Users)

Note: If you use Windows Vista or Windows 7, it is recommended that you install the game in a location other than the Program Files folder. Alternatively, you should run the game as an administrator.

My email says I got it 2 hours ago but I know for a fact I only received it 15 mins ago. I knew it was coming today so I've been checking all day. My bet is their system is having a few problems.

I've played in 1st beta... i can tell you this game is going to be big.It's not robotic like other mmorpg-s.

I think this will surpass wow when it comes out.

I doubt it. GW2 isn't really trying to compete with WoW anyway, as far as I know.

I like it a lot better than WoW and I think it will be a big success, but I don't think it'll be bigger (in number of users) than WoW.

Finally download the client.

BTW. Jumping from one server to another wont be free. If any of you pre-purchased you better start thinking about a server so you can play together

I think only prepurchasers are invited.
And you can find the download link from the forums Getting started page...
But it's nice we're not bound by NDA anymore :)
We'll share everything here at the forums with you who didn't get to beta.
