April 1 was a week ago, buddy.

I'm 95% sure Gaile would have said something yesterday. There IS however that stupid 5%.

Elaborate, please.

From the sticky at the top of this forum:


Two additional character slot for Factions release (confirmed.)
Gaile Gray: Consider GW one game, and Factions the other, as they are. Consider them both halves of a great whole. If you have GW, you have GW content only, and 4 slots. If you have Factions, you have Factions content only. If you have both, linked, you have 6 slots, with access for all_6_slots to BOTH games. You can keep them seperate, but linking is better, because you have 6 with twice the content. As opposted to four with 1/2 the content each. If it makes sense to you, thank you. I have to admit, I took 10 minutes of Mike O'Brien's time to learn it. I didn't understand the 6 x 100% is greater than 4 x 50%, you see?

Linking is a very important factor. You MUST decide to link, or not link, and cannot change later. I would heartily recommend that you consider the advantages to both BEFORE you make a decision. We cannot merge accounts, so if you set up a seperate account, we can't fix it later. And that of course means that your Factions account characters cannot enter Tyria.


If you are going to post information contrary to a Dev response, then please back it up in your post. I'll give you time to explain this before I close it.

Course not, you're getting 4 New Character Slots if you just buy the regular Guild Wars: Factions.

you get the 2 extra if you link factions onto your existing guildwars game. That read plain and simple to me. Maybe you got a little to excited and missed what was said?

A Factions account offers 4 slots that provide access to the Cantha only, just as Guild Wars (the original Prophecies campaign) offered 4 slots for access to Tyria. If you choose to link your Prophecies and Factions accounts, you will have a total of 6 character slots, and all characters will be able to access to all areas of the map.
from the factions FAQ.
