So everyone can make a hero? Eight heroes in one party? Who takes the loot? That sounds...lame but we will see.

Heroes vs Heroes and one's AI will jam = gg

while i think aspenwood is kinda lame, i kinda like a few of the competative missions--- Zos Chrivos is really really fun, i think.

Of course, I hope itll mostly be challenging and new pve missions- but at the same time, I hope they continue to mix it up a little bit...

I think the challenge missions were fun as hell... but the jade/aspen type ones can stay in Factions for all i care...

I was gonna buy CE just cause I'm willing to put in the extra money to show my support, and cause I love the extra goods but now, I think I'm just gonna buy CE for the awesome BOX!!

Oct 27th is good with me, Wii comes out early october so I get a bit of time to rock that, then it's on to Elona WOOT!

Ok the question i have is, can you pre-order the pre-order o_O? Like if i goto eb or whatever and pre-order, does that mean i get the pre-order pack when it's released?

Still undecided on whether I will buy a CE. I have yet to buy chp1 or 2 in CE cause I don't think the extras are worth it. Especially the in-game extras.

And like above poster says the Wii may come out in October. I may get it because of the ability to download old classics. I would like a PS3 but I don't think there is anyway my wallet can afford the $600+ hit to it.

I noticed the system requirements listed on EB games. Looks like they're even higher than Factions. Im talking about minimum requirements here btw. Minimum is now 512 MB RAM, and you need a 63 MB vid card at least (previously 32). Then they put the recommended settings up to 1 GB RAM and p4 2 ghz processor (from the previously recommended p3 1ghz processor).

I find this exciting because this implies that its going to look even better! HDR maybe? Probably not but whats not to like about better graphics.

Actually there has been word out that the Wii might get delayed till November.... not sure if I like the whole "hero" idea yet or not.. guess they decided on that after putting in the mini-pets and people wanting them to attack..

I'll probably try to get the CE again because I really like the artbooks...but I'm not too happy that it isn't getting any in-game emotes this time. The contents of this one are worse than Factions...and Factions was pretty bad compared to the original CE.

As long as they don't start coming out with GW shaped vitamins to put in these...

Heroes are henchies. They'll work just like how henchies work right now except with the customizable features added in. An 8 human player party can't add anyone, hero nor player, into an already full 8 player team.

Worse than Factions? Just because of the dragon mini-pet last minute add-on, right?

Because in terms of physical things in the box, it has all the stuff Factions has plus a making of DVD, skill pins (yea!), and the mini-figurine.

I agree, though, it needs some in-game items to close the deal. I'm hoping they haven't decided yet, and will add some before release.

there is absolutely no information from an official source that says the WONT do some kind of special in-game treat.

it would break tradition- although my first guess would be that it has to do with a collector edition-only kind of henchman... which might be amusing at least.... but ill be one to hold my breath for a nice special.


BTW- I want my GW Vitamins!

Just get a new video card and possibly some more ram. That would be way cheaper then buying a whole new computer. BTW I have one that is for total gaming and it didn't cost nearly that much. Check out Dell, they rock!

Kuunavang was not part of the Factions C.E. package originally. It only got added later after people had to wait forever for their delayed Factions C.E. pack. It was a "sorry" kind of gesture to those folks who got it delivered late (though everyone who installed it prior got it too)

If Factions C.E. wasn't delivered late, that dragon probably wouldn't have been in there - so for ingame you'ld have had two dance emotes for certain classes only, which isn't too great especially if the new classes don't appeal or have certain kinds of problems (Assassins specifically, no need to explain why)

From my understanding the Prophecies C.E. sounds like it was the best one to date: global ingame item, for all chars including all future ones. It also had a headset and stuff, though I'm not sure if that was just N. America or worldwide.

You'll have to talk with the store yourself to see if that's possible, but it's not a preorder. It's a "Prerelease Bonus Pack". Buying the prerelease won't garuntee you'll have a copy of the game, like a preorder would.

Also, someone quoted the Gamestop text that said you only get one of the two prerelease weapons. This is not true, as it's been clearly countered on the Guild Wars site.
