If any of you had been to Elona this morning when Gaile was on she clearly stated that the CE dances *were not complete yet* and should be finished sometime today.

Me too. Was too cheap to dish out the cash for the other CE's, and found myself disappointed because I liked the special effects. Decided I wasn't going to miss out a third time and went for the CE. Starting to realize I have really poor judgment, or very crappy luck.

I like the dance, but i don't like that they are almost identical. It seems odd for them to be so sparse about the dances this time around. It seems they all m/f d and p do some variation of the comming to america dance. I like the regular dances better, which is pretty odd for something that costs a bit extra to have.

My g/f and i both did the sync up in gh last night and they are different between the females, but some parts are exactly the same.

Oh really now! That's what i was kinda hoping for, they seemed way to similar to be "finished".

Thank god, because this was the first time I have ever bought a CE for Guild Wars and was very dissapointed when I just saw some dance with nothing special about it. Glad to know it's a work in progress.

I bought the CE not only because I really enjoyed the Preview and wanted to show my support for the team but also because I wanted a nice dance to go along with it.

I hear a lot of the proffesions use the same dance. IF this is true, imagine the massive non-proffesion based dance syncs we could have!

LoL, some of us actually have to log out & do RL stuff...like work

/end sarcasm

Really, I hope this is true, if so I think this will be a great release in that case. I really like the hero system & already have a nice lowbie sword & shield on Kos....the Shocking Plasma sword from Dragon's Gullet area collector....and a nice no req AL8 shield that adds I think 20hp....I'll finally have a use for some of my other warrior gear when I'm not using it....so I can give him a sword build while I'm using axe or visa versa....or even have him do some knock down hammer attacks & I can use the axe attack that adds more conditions/damage for striking a knocked down opponent.

Yeah, I'm glad it released when it was scheduled....but like any game, they can run behind trying to perfect the game or work out issues....if these minor things are addressed in the near future, I'll be happy with the money I spent. They do seem very active in updating, patching & working out bugs & working with the community to some degree in GW compared to other games I've played.....

Ohooo I like the sound of that. Hopefully my first CE will be a wise decision afterall ^^ I was sad to have missed out on the prophecies and factions CE when I saw ingame what it had to offer...

Seem as though Nightfall has such great changes like the hench control and everything I thought it odd that the CE dances seemed so half-hearted.

Hopefully they'll be something to show off though soon if this is true ^^

The dances are slightly different for male/female characters.

It's from the movie 'Coming to America', check out a clip of it here.

Divine Aura is noticable at first sight that it is something special
Backup Dancer were noticable at firt sight too
but new dances... ok they are nice but if you are just runnig through you wont notice anything - glowing aura around char or something like that would help a lot (or golden wings for paragon during dancing :P)

Well said, Couldn't have put it better myself... ^^

I got the Divine Aura with a reguar /dance, but the /dancenew did not include the DA. Strange, but the CE dervish dance is cute.

No. 1: The special effects are not in place for the Signature Dances. Expect those today or within a few days. They're nice.

No. 2: The dances are not "all the same," but their similarity is by design. Wait until you find you can dance with a partner, something that's been requested for a long, long time. I don't mean beside a partner, I mean with one.

We were going to let folks discover how cool they are, but consider that a little inside info, from me to you.

Thnx for the info Gaile, i think some people were about to give up on the CE in future chapters. but as long as you keep putting art books inside of the CE i will always buy them. thnx again.

First of all, I wanted to say, that NF CE is really nice, the artbook etc are worth it, and the really cool game that ANET is giving to us without a monthly fee , the miniature I dont like it, but I can sell it (anyone interested pm me :P ) , but the dance was really bad , I was hoping also something cool, but as Gaile said , its not finished yet, and I am sure that ANET team will do something special

ANET I LOVE YOU ^^

And the info on ALL the heros as well is a nice touch! Still, i need to read up on inscriptions, since there seems to be some wierd ones.

Will there be any effects for core proffesions? I didnt get a chance to buy Prophecies CE where I live, this means my fav Mesmer char will forever be w/o any specials, even tho I got other CE :/ I dont find it quite fair :/

Anyways, thank you for the info Gaile. If the dances were to be "signature" as they are atm, it would be a very VERY disapointing thing. Keep up the good work!
