Nightfall: Contents & Features Detailed

*Twitch* *Twitch* I'm in heaven. *Dies*

The pictures of the armor look so lavish.

As I read that, my genitals felt as though they were about to melt.

Fortunately, they didn't.



aaanyway. I wish I could get the in-game benefits of a CE by buying just a key from plaync.com. Paying the shipping makes the already steep (due to exchange rate) $70 prohibitive to me (I'm in Brazil).

You hear that, anet? people want to give you money!!! give them the chance to do so!!! Sell the CE key online, or at the guildwars store!!! Take the opportunity and sell it retroactively for Factions and prophs too!!! Sell it as a $20 add-on for people who already have the standard edition too!!!

Wow, I just made an Assassin last week. I'm glad I'm gonna be able to wait and buy Nightfall armor for her.

Good show Anet.

This isn't proof that Assassin/Ritualist armors will be available in Nightfall. ArenaNet only added unique armor in order to allow Assassin/Ritualist heroes to be playable in Hero vs. Hero PvP.

I'll be surprised if they add multiple armor sets in Nightfall. (They'll probably just add that one armor.)

They improved Spear throwing animation.

/notsigned The CE's are released in limited pressings which is what makes them special. Once they're gone; they're gone. It seems highly unlikely they would ever offer this as it has been met with far too much opposition and it would generally be betrayal of all that bought them initially.

p.s. They don't sell them in the ingame store even when the game is new cause of all the real world goodies the CE comes with and they don't ship anything.

EB, Gamestop, and Babbages (all owned by the same company) are charging $4.99 for the prerelease pack in addition to charging a $5.00 pre-pay for pre-ordering with them. Best Buy doesn't even seem to be offering the prerelease pack. In the past, I have bought the prerelease pack for $10.00 from Best Buy (I think it was ten anyway) and then that $10.00 applied towards the purchase of my collector's edition at Best Buy, essentially getting the prerelease pack for free.

Now, 2 questions:

1) Does anyone know of a store not charging $4.99 for the prerelease pack and simply giving it to you at the time you put a pre-pay down for $5.00 or $10.00 or whatever?

2) Has Best Buy been doing things differently? Have other stores charged the $4.99 for the prerelease pack on top of the $49.99 for the full release game pack for prophecies and factions??

Any answers would be appreciated.

Well I dunno about you guys, but I still to this day see Proph/Faction CEs at game stores. Although, there's a lot of hype now about the Nightfall one... Well I guess time will tell.

I agree that needs clarification. Is it ALL characters (including assassins/rits) or just the two new classes?

Seems the original Prophecies C.E. is still the best one frankly.

Sexy.

Bestbuy is doing the same deal as always; but they're not getting them in til the very end of September. Compusa is doing the same deal as Bestbuy always does except they're only charging $5 istead of 10.

uhh... I thought the thing that made them "special" was the fact that they had extra material (ie. minipet, special emotes etc) for extra money...? besides, you'll still have your "limited print" box and manual and guildwars thingamajigs all that jazz. And there's nothing to feel "betrayed" about, since people buying in the store would be paying as much as you (even if they're getting LESS stuff for it). Meanwhile, people who don't live in the US/Canada/Europe can still have the extra ingame stuff, at least.

The standard edition sold in the store doesn't have the "real world" goodies (manual and box), either, but it IS sold in the store nonetheless. At the same price, by the way. I don't how the CE is different in that aspect.

The Factions CE is still available. I know in Europe they Prophecies CE is still available-got a bunch on amazon.eu; but in America you can find the Prophecies CE online for $250.

The physicall standard edition doesn't have any goodies either; the manual is available for download on the GW site and a box is not a goodie. And I believe it was Gaile that at some point said they wouldn't sell it from the ingame store cause they don't ship you anything; it's not like I just made that up.

Bah, the "lion" is basically the stalker model with a mane just like I expected...

What does the rat have to do with anything, though?

Would sure look cool if a bunch of them did it in sync, though...

I'm not sure, but I think the dance might be from Michael Jackson's "Remember The Time" video clip, which would be funny, regarding the fact that it plays in an Egyptian palace (and Eddie Murphy is the Pharao).

Ahhh, what a pity then.

Everyone's saying it's from"beat-it".

All I could find was the SE from the UK site. Is that the same thing as the CE?

A physical manual and a physical box count as goodies to me. But then I'm a collector myself, got a couple dozen game boxes and manuals around (I'm always mad when a game ships with a lame instruction card and not a manual). Regardless, I don't see why the player paying the same price for a CE and NOT having the physical extras would be unfair to players who pay the same exact price and get all of them. If anything, it'd be the other way around (but then, the players buying it online would already have accepted that loss by buying online anyway, just as I accepted the loss of a manual and box by buying prophs and factions online).

That is different. Maybe they are out now too; last time I looked was a few weeks ago.

ahhh, yeah, KOSS! my /b/ROTHA! I wonder if a bubble pops up above him saying "POOL'S CLOSED" everytime you walk near water.

I want to buy him armor in the suit variety.
