The Guild Wars 2 Trading Post – which offers auction house facilities – is now live, VideoGamer.com video producer Matt Nellis has confirmed.
Minutes ago Matt logged in and purchased a short bow for 88 bronze coins, offering +2 critical damage.
The launch of Trading Post comes amidst a host of other game updates, as detailed on the official Guild Wars 2 Wiki.
ArenaNet says that account hacking remains a threat, meaning players should stay vigilant.
“Hackers have lists of email addresses and passwords stolen from other games and web sites, and collected through spyware, and are systematically testing Guild Wars 2 looking for matching accounts.
“To protect yourself, use a strong, unique password for Guild Wars 2 that you’ve never used anywhere else!
“Today a Guild Wars related fan site announced that its account database has been breached. That’s important but just one of many apparent breaches of other games and web sites that hackers have been collecting email addresses and passwords from. Protect yourself by using a unique password for each game and web site account you care about, and especially be sure to use a unique password for your Guild Wars 2 account.”
The firm says its “customer support team is prioritising hacked accounts and other blocking login issues over other types of support requests” and “in the past 24 hours we helped 2,574 players with hacked accounts and 2,867 players with other blocking login issues get back into the game”.
