4slots chapter1 stand alone + 4slots chapter2 stand alone = 6slots combined install
full price chapter1 + full price chapter2 = 6/8 benefit
wasn't the first law of marketing: keep your EXISTING customers happy?

Well, since they don't charge an online fee, they gotta have some way to squeeze money out of players 
Their logic sounds like something from Kindergarten, if GW and Factions were both halves of a greater whole, with factions potentially having even more content, don't you think that 2 halves should make 8, with one "half" already being 4 players?? Especially the 6 x 100 and 4 x 50, please tell me how that makes sense.

Nice
So does this mean, if you only have Chapter 2, you can still make 4 characters?

so if we do want 8 total slots can we buy two factions games and link both to the old account??
i still doubt i will link my accounts, tehre are 8 classes and 5 slots(one for PvP) for PvE characters, i am missing out on 3/8 of the game as they state it. I'll argue i am missing less with two seperate accounts, I have played prophecies i dont have some burning desire to go back with my ritualist.
I don't understand why we dont get 1 slot for PvP only that doesnt count towards our character slots for PvE

I'm very happy at the increase in character slots, so I think ANet has done a good job to make its existing customers happy.
Spenser_For_Hire
i think the logic is, if you want 8 slots, 4 GW 4 factions, you cant interchange the characters between games, but if you choose the 6, you can take characters from GW into factions and factions into GW, ill go with 6

I know it's incredibly boring, but I can only repeat what Gaile has said when asked about rumours in the past: Until we confirm something, don't set your heart on it being true. If it's a rumour, chances are it's going to be wrong. That's the way these things go, a lot of the time. Someone will talk about something they'd *like* to have, and overtime as more people talk about it it gets twisted into "I heard they are going to do this..." __________________ Alex 'GhostRaptor' Weekes Guild Wars Community Relations NCsoft Europe |

I am not sure why there is unhappiness....the whole premise of Guildwars is limit people so they have to make choices...well this is no exception...You either choose to have 8 players but not acces to all the skills OR you choose 6 characters but have full access....
Those that are complaining about the "marketing"...of course they want to make money...ANET is not a charity, they are a software company that is in it to make money all the while doing something fun and exciting, for them and those that play the game. So cough up the extra 50 and be glad there is not monthly fee...after all wihtout more money ANET wouldnot be able to provide the constant server with routine updates.

Shouldnt the math be more like 8 slots for a 75% gameplay experience vs 6 slots for a 100% experience? [Long pause for you to do the math...a=(6 X 1.00) therefore a=600, b=(8 X .75) therefore b=600, therefore a=b +/- your personal preference.... Eureka!]
Now take that and divide by monthly charges [Pause again....12(months) X $10(a month)=120, 600/120=5]
And multiply how ANET makes their money with no monthly charges[(5+45)X(numbers of dwarf guild guild accounts) + (expansion pack per account)]
Which is a grand total of = all ur $$$ pwn to ANET.
Sounds like marteting in action to me.

4 slots if as a separate new account
Woutsie
What will you people do? Link it or not? I'll link it I guess, since the Warrior is the only profession that suits me
The Extortionist
^^ actually, if i read it correctly, it would be either 8 separate characters with access to half the game each or six characters with access to the entire game.
wouldn't that be 8*.5= 4 & 6*1=6--
therefore their logic is correct with the 4*0.5 but that's not including buying an update at all.
so i agree that it should be if you buy the expansion you should get all the expansion & half the original (75%) to make each choice equal.
anyways, thats how i understood it, pls tell me if i'm wrong
Ex
p.s. wow-- in the 10 min or so i was replying (doing other stuff as well) like 10 other people posted,,, i was actually replying to Get Cha. lol

Great news (I was actually in LA1 at the time), and I'm very glad ANet has listened to the fan base (or were they planning 2 slots all along??) A very wise move, and will dramatically decrease the number of Ri/A and A/Ri characters we will see in CH2.
Pan Sola
Right now, one character can hold 45 items in inventory. One account has access to 20 slots of space in Storage. These numbers might go up in a future update (some Gaile chat suggested it might be possible)
Not linking C1 and C2 means you get two additional characters' worth of inventory plus an additional 20 slots in storage.
Linking C1 and C2 means you have access to more skill combinations, and you can use non-core skills from one chapter in the other chapter.
What is your choice?
ps. please also specify if you are more PvP oriented or more PvE oriented.

Guardian of the Light
Now if you think of it now we only have 1/2*4= 2 
right now.
Still I agree with that logic.

2 new slots for the two new professions. What about the other two professions? There is already 6 existing.
Okay so I can understand them wanting to make money, but I doubt anything like that is a bid to save space or bandwidth costs. I still want an option to buy extra slots or something to that effect.

X-Bomb
if i link my accounts, will i be able to switch regions, as it stands im stuck in America, when factions comes, i want to join back to Europe to play with my friends who have stopped playing the current guildwars. It would be a pain to meet up in INT districts all the time. And the fact that i would have payed for a new expansion but still have 0 changes would annoy me greatly. could some1 ask this question to gaile if they regularly talk to her when she comes online
