ArenaNet is running a special BWE for some people who were locked out of the March BWE – here’s what Gaile had to say about it on one of the forums:
I wanted to explain about the Scandinavian Weekend. What happened, quite honestly, was that we messed up. The keys created for Scandinavian distribution were not activated, and those good folks in Denmark, Finland, Normay or Sweden who preordered through the official Scandinavian distributors/retailers were “locked out” of the last BWE. So in order to make it up to them, we’re giving access to the game to those who have preordered from those countries through the designated retailers.
We hope that you’ll understand our greatest goal would have been to have everyone participating in the March 18th BWE. But failing that, we’re determined to set things right and this is how we’re undertaking it.
The good news for the rest of us is that the weekend isn’t covered by an NDA, so we’ll be getting screen shots and information that we otherwise wouldn’t.
The biggest thing so far (besides the interface changes) is the addition of a number of new character customizations – new faces, new hair, new hair colors, and new skin colors. Check out the necromancer with blue hair. 🙂 The necromancer’s base color has been changed from red to green, and the elementalist has been changed from purple to red.
