Guild Wars 2 Password Attacks

[Sep 07, 2012, 8:09 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Ars Technica has an unconfirmed report that ArenaNet has been experiencing attempts at unauthorized access to Guild Wars 2 accounts. These differ from the typical such attacks as they are reportedly the result of a breach at an unnamed Guild Wars fan-site, and that the perpetrators are now trying the username and password combinations from the site to take advantage of users who also use them for their game account. They include the obvious warning that this is not a good idea.

Still having a blast with Guild Wars 2, easily one of my favorite games of the past few years. I run with a little crew in WvW and it's fun as hell, we just go after strategic targets, setup siege weapons and then disappear once the zerg arrives (after pounding them for awhile).

Started up a Necromancer alt, they are boring as shit to level in PvE but fun as hell in PVP. I've won quite a few 1v2 fights already and that's without my complete "endgame" setup.

Don't know what else to say to people expecting more - you won't get it. This is about as good of a gameplay, enjoyment and value deal as I can imagine, right up there with old school Blizzard games.
