I've seen chat logs where Gaile mentioned that they are working on more storage. My memory is fuzzy but I also thought that Gaile had mentioned something about paying additional $$ for additional storage as a possible option.

I wouldn't think paying extra cash for a bit more storage was said, only for those nutters who actually would pay for more room.

There's one Xunlai account for a GW account, that goes for merged accounts as well. So no, the Xunlai won't give you additional spaces for merging, but all your characters will be able to share the booty across continents.

But possibly the Xunlai storage will increase with the merge. I think paying in game gold would be a good way to increase storage.

No, it's already been stated that it won't increase as a direct result of Factions. They are, however, considering making the existing storage slots more efficient, allowing more storage in the available space. How this would be done, or what would stack, is purely speculative. Some folks tend to think weapons and the like could stack... I for one would guess that a storage slot could be used for all materials, with that slot serving as a box within the box.

Odds are, no one's right and it will be something completely different.

They could increase stack size from 250 to 500, that would help. They could give us a special 'holiday bag'. Or maybe a Rune of Storage for our Storage! =)

Quickly to the Gaile Signal!

/Dashes to the signal and turns it on and a large image of a frog appears in the sky,

Yea there will be storage increase in the future maybe not at release of factions, but they did say they would increase it somewhat I believe.

I heard you can BUY 2 Slots without factions for $9.99

maybe they will have more features to sell like more storage?

They should make an "armor box" for your storage that can hold large amounts any armor that is customized. Hoarding armor is not an economic issue, as the only way to profit by it is to salvage it. Which is rarly a good return on your investment.

Thus the farmer would not get any extra space to store their enconomy smashing spoils (because they rarly have more than the set of armor on their backs anyway). Yet, regular players could keep all their armor sets in a nice safe spot to free up bag space.

Well with all the news about the features in factions and the day of the Tengu I havnt actually thought much about The Storage issue...

But If ANET thinks they can distract me enough to forget about storage they are sadly mistaken!!...

Interesting that they have confirm Guild-Vault but still nothing said about personal storage!!

Where's the expanded storage we were promised as recompense for only having two linked characters? Gaile promised over and over and over that storage with the Xunlai agents would be bigger.

I don't think it was ever confirmed that it would come with the release. Just be patient.

There's tons of storage space, you just have to learn not to waste it.

And over and over she said NOT with Factions release. And over and over she said it'd be a FEATURE which could be implemented whenever it was ready. Maybe read what she actually says next time?

With all those new armors and weapons around and a lot of players already out of storage, has anyone found a rune of Major/Superior Holding/Wardrobe/way to increase storage yet?

I'd really like to buy one of the new armours, but I don't even have enough free slots on my character to buy an entire set. <_<

Just like with the purchasing of additional character slots later, I think there might be something like that with storage as well. Sounds possible but I don't know =(

....or stop being a packrat and let some stuff go!! XD

Yeah, it's kind of annoying; I've been forced to use one of my new character slots for extra storage space.

I think everyone has come across too much crap problem at least once. Started using the auctions to get rid of some stuff until there is (hopefully) an increased storage.

Hope and I have never been on good terms though.

I dont ever remember seeing anything that confirmed there would be extra storage space with factions. I realy dont need it, although I would like more in storage so I dont have to use my characters for it.

I also realy dont want to start yet another complaint thread - I complained ONCE and got flamed for it, and mine was acualy at least simi-valid, most of these are worthless. My vote = close thread.

New storage was said to be coming with the new trading feature as well as combined guild storage.

Indeed, AFTER the release of factions.

Really people, read stuff every now and then before you try and spread anger and fuel the a-net haters.

ONE SLOT GIVES 45 STORAGE SPACES WHICH IS EQUAL TO 2.25 STORAGE VAULTS WHICH IS A BARGAIN.

Don't worry ... it's another great money making idea.... you have to buy extra space. Hrmmm... monthly fees/buying space ... toss up if that happens.

my gawd always the same trolls... must be ANet plants

it is absolutely ridiculous now we see NO expanded character storage and account storage (xunlai) and we're live and in prime time. I'm getting pretty tired of ANet trying to get away with anything they can. I like some of the extras they deliver but

not even keyrings for the key mess? (say keep 5 for us so we actually have when need)
produce holiday items but nothing for that?
tons of materials and collector items, not even 'superior' runes of holdings for bags, no extra room in storage?

I could put bags with things in it in storage in EQ over 5 years ago
I'm kinda sick of the character swap mess

D2:LOD even expanded their thing.

Oh well there's the PS3 and Oblivion come fall if they don't get their ---- together. (graphics card to weak for PC and not a xbox360 fan)

You fill up a storage box full of bags, then one day you want to bust out your certain items (let's say you're pumpkin hat in this example in the middle of July or something). You go to your storage, and lo and behold... so many bags... all the same. How will you ever find your precious Pumpkin Hat!?

Yeah no news seems to mean bad news here too.

And that's the real kick in the pants ain't it?
So we dont have more storage and we don't have a good way to move stuff out with no good auction/selling/trading system. Thanks ANet

Waste time playing with inventory and/or unloading it, what's it going to be?

Ah ok that came out into the response to the rumour I saw showing it'd be available on/near release Still ambigiuous but good catch, maybe E3 will have a surprise... or not.

Guess I could always get that graphics card for the PC instead...

what a load of shit. isn't it logical that an increase of character slots must be followed with an increase of storage space? well, apparently this ain't the case here. I have 6 slots and yet still one small storage for all of them. I just hope this issue gets addressed soon.
