[MERGED] New Storage Options for Guild Wars

Love it - anything helps, wish dyes were there too.

Take your own advice. You clearly haven't been reading why we've been complaining. Perhaps you should read slower. Nobody said they didn't want this. But we need MORE than this. Sure, space for Materials. Wow. What about people who don't hoard materials and yet still have no room due to armor sets, and runes, and dyes? I guess tough shit for them huh?

Also, they've been promising us improvements for a while. Then we finally get something, and it's so small it almost doesn't even exist. If you think 34 slots for materials only will suddenly clear everyone's mules, you're very very naive. It's taken ArenaNet as long as it has to come up with this?

Third! They've promised continually that system improvements (Trade and Storage improvements specifically) would be free since they could just roll it out with streaming technology. That turned out to be a lie. Now you have to purchase Factions just for your Tyrian characters can get better storage.

Next we'll find out you have to buy Chapter 3 for improved henchmen. You have to buy Chapter 4 for the reconnecting improvements. Are you starting to get the point?

You claim we're playing for free, but those who won't buy chapter after chapter are having their enjoyment gimped. Perhaps you need to calm down and try to understand the deeper going-ons that are hidden within this whole situation. You obviously don't understand the problems, so you have absolutely no position to take an opposing stance.

no they aren't many people are happy that they just play proph and have the joy of killing things, I can and would put money on that if it were IRL, and obviously YOU aren't very intelligent, wouldn't getting something then complaing "I waaaant moore" be considered whining? I sure as heck consider it whining, and you still are PLAYING for free, if you want improvements then pay for it. Oh and how do you know they could add stuff for tyria down the line but right now they are so cramped timewise with Chap 3 and the event that they could only pick one continent, logical idea for marketing FACTIONS. About the chapter 3 and 4 for improved stuff, its plausible but don't be such a presumptuous snob. Materials only hey its something be happy with it and hush. Take my own advice huh? I am not whining, I am being the one guy that stands up for anet when people continuously bash them for their efforts, I could just imagine how you all treat your mothers.


Edited: to clean up my language, got a little aggravated at first.

More on topic this space is gonna be especially good for saving up certain materials for when their price goes up or usefullness comes around, ruby and sapphires anyone?

Kijik, again you clearly missed the point.

Ok, do you understand that issue now?

HAHA. This is how I know I'm intelligent. Cantha and Tyria have the same NPC script for Xunlai Agents. Don't believe me? Go to Tyria, and put an item in storage. Go to Cantha, and take it out. Yet I'm supposed to believe adding slots can only be done in Cantha? Good one, Kijik. You're smarter than I am.

Same could be said for you and presuming that the improved storage will come to Tyrian Xunlai Agents in the future.

We've all been in your position. I've played since betas and defended them for a year. Come see me a year after you started playing and tell me you aren't sick of "We're fixing it!" "Soon!" "We'll improve it soon" when day after day you see it simply isn't true.

Probably the most ignorant statement I've ever seen you make, and that's saying a lot. My dissatisfaction with ArenaNet's handling of their product and lack of keeping their word to their consumers is a valid position to take when one is not satisfied because what is promised never comes true. How that relates to my mother I can't fathom, but considering I'm right and you aren't, it's predictable for you to resort to personal cheap shots.

Come see me when you grow up and can understand more than "you play for free." Some of us are bothered by things deeper than that.

*chuckles* about the promises about the thing, for one evryone breaks promises, for two it still IS free, theydidn't charge anyone for it, you are looking too far into things, I take things at a more literaly level when it comes to other people's words, yes I noticed that now makes what I said earlier a moot point, I am tired and you ahven't yet angered me, which restores my strength(I am actually getting a good chuckle out of you). The scripting idea may be true but it likely takes more time to add it to both, also they are separated somewhat, they become conjoined when you join accounts. I am not trying to show my intelligence, I am just tired of being talking crap about a game then going back and playing it, if I don't like something, I leave. Also I wasn't presuming anything, if you payed attention I said they COULD when you said what you said you had a matter of fact tone. I started playing about 7 months ago, I'll see ya in november, keep an eye on me and don't come into other forums to troll me, I hate hearing waaarg as it is. The how you treat your mothers thing, is kind of what happens when you get aged by certain things in life, you say things that aren't necessarily the most "intelligent" but they still do have some relevance, listen to a senior citizen for half an hour, you'll know what I mean.

BTW I see that I have a rival now, things just became ten times more interesting.

6 shields, 4 swords, 4 axes, 2 hammers, 5 helmets, 4 armor slots (secondary armor) pumpkin head, christmas head, 1 bow,salvage kit, id kit

not many space left heh

and I use all differente things depending of the situation

Come back when you get a clue about that sort of thing. It would actually be easier to add it to everyone, not just Factions owners, as they then don't have to check to see if you have an expansion to get the extra storage.

Armor vault plx.


kthx

*yawns* ok flame me, my defender of anet armor is flame proof and yer right i don't have the best idea of that sort of thing, all I am saying is that anet has their reasons for these things and it is none of our places to question it IMNSHO(In My Not So Humble Opinion) if we had to pay a monthly fee for this game then sure question away but until then...

If I were anet I would start charging a monthly fee to spite all of the whiners.

I am happy that my materials mule will now have a few extra slots to be an armor mule as well. I am very disapointed that they chose to make the new material storage so limited though. Only one stack of each type of material? Most of us may only end up using half of that if not less. An armor tab would really be a nice addition as well. If they must place such limits as they did with the materials, they could do one set per character including 1 head gear. Since most of us seem to have at least 2 sets of and 3-4 kinds of head gear per character it would help a little. Would free up 5 spaces per character, which would be nice but not so huge as to create some terrible issue of balance.

To Kijik: You may consider the people posting here to be whiners, however, companies make promises to keep their customers. Unhappy customers will not promote their product. Not only that, someone that is displeased with the service they have recieved is more likely to tell others than someone that is happy with the service they recieved. If someone tells you that they recieved poor service, you are also less likely to seek service from that company. Basic customer service 101. You are right that Anet can do whatever it pleases, but can it do so and stay in business?

*EDIT* I speak of customer service in the most general sense of course. We all know that Anet must maintain a balance with many things in this game.

Well, this kind of extended storage is quite useless for me. I keep only few rare material types and sell rest before they hit 250

34 extra general slots would had been a better option. Well, this is still better than nothing.

They have to make money somehow right?

I'm glad theyre doing it at all! half my storage is crafting mats. Yay for this!

EDIT: I guess some people arent happy about the attempt to satisfy the players
Oh you REALLY NEED SOOPER BADLY extra room for ARMOR SETS? Armor is customized for individual characters, so keep them on the character its customized for... Thats what I do, problem solved? apparently not for you.

Oh yes trade improvements!!!!1 They just press the big "IMPROVE TRADE SYSTEM" button and it gives you a lil notification that you need to update and POOF! Its right F**king there. I guess theyre too lazy to press it eh? by the way, they never promised that those improvements were coming, and they never specified a date either, so they didnt promise you CRAP. So dont complain about it.

Oh you're having your enjoyment gimped? I dont recall them making the game WORSE for you people who dont want to continue buying chapters, last time I checked theyre still adding stuff to prophecies.

Dont play Guild Wars anymore if ANets laziness pisses you off so bad. They cant please everyone can they?

Well Done.
Stop complaining at least something is being done.

What I would like to hear is that something is being done for those that have Prophecies only. I do not need to know what it is or when.

I don't know about you guys, but my storage is 95% full of crafting material, this update is basically going to empty my current storage! I'm happy because that means I'll be able to use storage what it's for; transferring items from one character to the other without having to get guildies involved/selling stuff I don't want to to make space etc.

I think some of you just have too much junk ...

A-Net have stated that Nothing will be added to Ch1, only bug fixes and such

I'm starting to question that considering that they just added new green items.

ok, so maybe having generic *crafting mats* slots would have been beter, but for heavens sake, people....

THIS WILL BE NUMBER ONE *TESTING* CAPABILITES

*ahem*
so, they are testing to see how this will or will not work. IF it works, works WELL and is used by more people than not used, they will pat themselves on the back and say, 'righty then, next page of storeage can be...'

so, theres maybe in the offing, a page for armours, one for festival and event items and one for wepons....

however, if you whine, beatch and basically calll them all the names you can think of, simply because *this* specific page of storeage is useless to YOU IN PARTICULAR.....they will probablt say, 'pff...stuff you then, cheaky littl SOB's....'

its like buying a collectors plate....just cause you want the #3 William T Riker plate, you still have to collect #1 Picatd and #2 Data TO GET to the thrid plate.....
'otherwise, tis off to ebuy fer you ^^

reason for it being Factions only?
Duh....for one, sell more copies of fations, and fer two...

storeage is a purchaced with game part, not a free update part....
the free update is for fixes now (in concern to vanilla GW, since, and i am sick of repeating myself here, poeple).....NO NEW UPDATES WILL BE RELEASED FOR GUILDWARS VANILLA ONCE FACTIONS GOES LIVE, OTHER THAT THE USUAL SKILL UPDATES AND BUG FIXES AND HOLIDAY EVENTS!!!

*pant*

now the next hting to hope is that they make the same sort of update with a Guild Stash, only moreso.....

its funny how people forget that anet needs to still find ways to sell factions. stop complaining that prophecies isn't recieving attention. They will do something eventually. Omg you guys are so annoying. Let them enjoy their damn release of Factions and make more money.

Its a good start, but it would be great if they continued to expand.
