Hello all,
can someone tell me the emote for the collector's dance? i don't think the normal /dance function is the one.
also i think i'm supposed to get 2 extra character slots, but apparently i stick with 6. Am i supposed to have 8? or i misunderstood it?
questions about CE

When you combine a Prophecies account with Factions, you get a total of 6 slots. Whereas not combining them you should only have 4 on either. 6 is the correct amount.

thought the collector's edition will give me 2 extra

Hmm...I believe it's with any combination of Prophecies to Factions CD-Keys.
I have CE as well, but having that feature only bound to the CE isn't all too fair and doesn't make much sense IMO.

nono, u do get ur special CE dance, just i don't know what's the command for the emote.
u can check it if u go to the "manage access key"(?? not sure the name) option, it'll show u have activated the special CE dances.
and i am indeed living in the UK.

CE came w/ a quick reference sheet. you might take a look at that to see if it mentions the CE dance command.. just a thought.. 
Denshoni
You still retain the special dance regardless of wheter you activate the Factions CE as a separate or linked account. As far as the special dance slash-command, I'm not sure myself because I've yet to confirm it, but I believe the original dance is replaced so it should be just /dance like always.

to answer your questions..... /dancenew

HAPPY FOR YOU YOU ARE WRONG.THE 2 MONTH DELAY IS ONLY FOR THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOT ALREADY PREORDERED IT.
THE 2 MONTH DELAY IS FOR A SEPARATE NEW SECOND BATCH NOT AFFECTING THE ORIGINAL BATCH WHICH HAS NO TO A SMALL DELAY.

News on Collector's Edition 26 April 2006 We have great news about availability of the Guild Wars Factions Collector's Edition! As you may know, some stores are reporting a shortage of the Collector's Edition. In truth, it appears that we underestimated the demand and manufactured too few copies. In order to correct this shortage, we are currently producing additional copies of the CE. These copies have an anticipated ship date of June 30th. We sincerely thank the Guild Wars community for its incredible support of Factions, and look forward to seeing you in the game soon! |

Hello this is my first post here. So hi everyone. However from how I understand it we will not get our preorders for the CE for another 2 months. It seems the shortage applies to everyone that does not get one today. Am I misunderstanding something? Honestly 2 months seems like a long time to me. If thats the case I may not buy the game at all. It would be cool if they let us buy collectors keys on the website and then just shipped us the other stuff when ready.

EB is telling me that they have absolutely no eta for me but it could be a few months. I did preorder so I dont really know what to believe. Plus the official post on the GW site is a bit vague. What is the source of your info about it only being a delay for people that did not preorder?

Hello, Thanks for getting in touch to ask about the availability of Guild Wars Factions. We have some news on this matter and hope to have more, perhaps as early as tomorrow. First of all, the Standard Edition should reach all shelves worldwide on April 28th, as planned. Many countries will also receive the Collector's Edition on time, as well. But it's true that stores in some areas of the world will experience a modest delay before they receive their copies of the Collector's Edition. In addition, the Collector's Edition has been sold out in some stores even in advance of arrival, a situation that we did not anticipate. We apologize deeply for both of these situations. One was the result of a manufacturing delay; the second was caused by unpredecented demand. We hope to have more definite information on availability soon, and in the meantime, are already moving forward on making additional copies of the Collector's Edition. Those additional copies of the CE will be shipping on June 30th. We want to emphasize this is a secondary batch, and that if you have already preordered the Collector's Edition, you should find your retailer able to fulfill that commitment within the next few days. Thank you for your support of Guild Wars! Regards, The Guild Wars Team |

Just so you know I called Best Buy a few minutes ago and the CE is apparently in transit meaning it could arrive tonight or tomorrow so if you have a store near you check with them.
SerasCain
where do you live and which best buy?
I called 5 or 6 best buys all around Los Angeles, and none have it. Same with CompUSA and Fry's

I have called and emailed amazon.com about my CE. I have preordered it on mar. 18 by money order paid in full, and they said to me it will ship on may 2 no delay. They better be right, makes no sense in preordering if you cant get the item. Its supposed to be locked in. One more thing, you have to merge factions with original GW in order for your GW character to travel to Cantha right?

While I spoke to EB last night and they told me when they converted EB to the Gamestop database system the SKU for factions CE changed and they neglected to convert the old SKU to the new one. As such anybody that ordered the CE edition now has a preorder that points to a SKU that is nonexistant in the dbms system and as such does not exist. I dont know if this was only the stores that had this problem or what but the manager told me it was affecting all the stores. I dont know about the webstore. Hopefully they get this fixed and get my game soon. This is the 2nd preorder in a row EB has messed up honestly I am getting really sick of them.

i got my CE in the mail about 14 hours ago now (yes i still been playing since then ) , and when combined with my previouse prophecies account, i did have 6 char slots, 4 containing my 4 characters from my main account, and 2 new free slots, im pretty sure tho that you also get this when you just buy the normal edition as guildies have confirmed this wich is weird, but anyway you do get 2 more slots.
the command for the special dance emote is
/dancenew
