Obviously you can't play it without legit beta invitation....

I'd suggest not posting that untill it can be verified there isnt an MD5 or checksum difference per exe that would allow the devs to track the source of the leak.

i don't think this is real...

It's legit, thanks for the share Analhammer.

I tested it in a VM and Sandbox (after I checked it out in OllyDbg) since I wasn't sure of the original source, and it's clean. It's setup like GW1 was, if you ever played that. You run the posted exe (the client) and it'll download all the game files into a single archive (~11GB). Then, you run the updated gw2.exe to start the game (that's the updated gw2 at the time of this post. If they patch, it'll be different by the time you download it.).

The client is the downloader, so they have it as compact as GW1. It was a pretty fast download too, so it only took a few hours to download with a decent internet connection. Not sure how the speeds are since though.

Of course, if you only want to analyze the client, you don't have to actually use it to download the data file. You can just use OllyDbg/IDA. Anyone who knows what they are doing, wouldn't take long to verify the exe is real.

FYI op gj listening. now when it turns out every download has an individual offset and your permanently blacklisted from all ncsoft/arenanet games, you'll have noone to blame but yourself!

Plus, when the lawyers come-a-knocking remember, magnets wont wipe your drives fast enough.

Actually, you are telling that to the wrong person:

It's not his download! If you search for the sendspace URL posted, you'll find the post it came from on their forums.

I'd agree though, it seems ArenaNet is taking NDA breaks seriously, based on what I've read over the net.

Lawyers? Hahaha.

Game companies take their business very serious now days. They will not hesitate to threaten you with lawyers, it has happened to me before.

I take cookies and Waffles as my preferred form of apology gift.


Some companies take NDA Leaks really really seriously. like, for an example, a company that has every square inch of your screen watermarked with the email address the client is logged in under, and monitors all activity you are preforming on your computer while the client is running. Like Guild wars 2 has and does.

and if you honestly think "im hiding in my mommies basement under a sheet, they cant find me lololo" or "im not in the USA they cant do anything lol" you better check to see if your country CO-OPERATES with the united states, cause if it does, you are this cute little thing called SCREWED.

@Mighty Bear Turtle panda warrior: lol wut did you do

@pushedx: ah. point stands, shouldn't have been uploaded here till two people with clients could check there MD5 check sum and shit to make sure there identical.
