If you do, sign this:

My friend made that. If we get enough signatures then maybe something will happen, I dunno. But come on, we can't wait for the expansion to come out. Seriously.

my friend there is not need for more slots. they intended it this way.
you can have 3 PvE characters with all professions and 1 PvP character that you can remake as many times as you want.
there is ablolutely no reason to have any more slots.

Yes I would like more character slots. But hey, Online Petitions don't work.
Well duh they intended it this way.
You can have 1 character PvE character and unlock everything with it. Hell, you don't even need PvE chars, you can just have PvP chars and unlock everything with them. I don't see any reason to be more than 1 slot.

lol well at least A-net gives you the chance to go through the game with all 6 professions and have a slot left for a pvp character.
4 is the perfect amount ablolutely no reason for more

I want one character slot for each primary + 1 for a PvP slot.
It's stupid to expect people to delete a character just to make a new one.
There are no good reasons to limit it to 4. The one that always gets thrown out is that it forces people to consider their character more carefully before commiting to it. That's a load of ____. If that's the case then make attribute point assignments perminent. That will just make people more carefull when assigning attribute points.

The only problem (?) I could see with more slots is that you now have that much additional storage. As a result, you'll find people "muling" with a slot or two.
Although, with the release and ease in finding quality items now this should be moot.

you should delete yoru PvP character anyway since i am sure you do not run the same build all the time.
or are you saying you should have unlimited PvP slots???
Sekkira
Personally it would be nice to have 7 slots, 6 for PvE/PvP and 1 for permanent PvP. I'd only use 5 though really.

To anyone who says you can have all 6 professions in 3 slots: You can have all 6 professions in 1 slot. You can only have 1 primary per slot however, and each primary plays differently. If you don't know that by now you're an idiot.
WetWookie
Also I don't understand people that argue against having more slots. It's not like having more slots will hurt you in any way. All you're trying to do is grief PvE players who want to have fun.
Kuku Monk
I like it the way it is. Honestly, who has time to play more than 4 characters? I sure don't.

Is it really that much server space to expand the slots? Granted whatever the space is, expanding the slots then doubles that space effectively since I am sure, given 4 more slots, most people would at least make storage characters.
Meh. Maybe I wont wait and I'll just get a second account. Anet can take my money and make a better full expansion sooner and, frankly, I wouldnt complain with what we have. ^^ Should they read this and show us pity, more slots would be nice-ness. Maybe then I'd make a PvP character and actually go PvP. ^_~

Online petitions are highly respected and successful!
Yes, more slots are needed. If you play a lot of PvP, the time wasted deleting and recreating certain characters adds up. As does the gold cost, if you haven't unlocked the required runes. As it stands, I delete at least one character per day. With double the amount of slots, I'd probably have room for my one PvP character and all my favourite builds. It'd be nice, really. Hats off to the people screaming "WTF NO MORE SLOTS, NOBODY IS ALLOWED NICE THINGS".
Some of the posts gave me a headache, so I skimmed through. Before somebody suggests getting another account, or in case someone has already suggested it but nobody's given them a righteous hindspanking, the unlocking system wants to say hello.

ummm i think we all know that primaries play differently than secondaries, so i am opretty sure your patronizing is not wanted nor needed here.
that being said it goes deeper than just slots. you then will have issues with storage etc.
there are reasons there is only 4 slots plus a storage account.
Sekkira
Personally I wouldn't mind paying a little extra money to get another 3-4 character slots on the account.

I agree that seven (7) slots would be the perfect number. Yes in three (3) slots (or as pointed out one (1)) you could run all six professions, but also as pointed out you could not do so as PRIMARY professions. You cannot fully play each profession without experiencing it as a primary, this is simple fact. The seventh of course being used for the re-useable PvP character. Considering the number of professions in Diablo II, last I played that game I had running about 12 to 15 different characters. Imagine that.

I couldn't even stomach the PvE portion of this game long enough to complete 1 character...I don't know why any of you would want to do it 7 times....

if you are pve and despise the game so much why not play something you like better?
NOTE that was not a get lost it was a serious question to understand why you would stay where you hated it
Teklord
LoL, that's humorous. However I enjoy the storyline; I beleive it to be quite unique as instead of sticking with one 'story' its more a bunch of short stories plugged together. Kinda like Sin City. Actually from a certain view it is one story, it's the story of your character's adverture and what happens to him/her from one situation to another.
But anyway, I'll certainly play the game as each profession primary through the storyline. Which if I do the math correcty is only six (6) times, not seven (7). The seventh slot would exist for the recyclable PvP character without having to delete a PvE character that one has invested time and effort into building up. As it stands for now I'll just have to eventually sacrifice a couple of characters that I've invested in unless of course the character slot issue gets resolved. Either way, such is life.

If they are going to keep it at 4 slots they should give us the option of creating our own personal pvp templates. Kind of like the premade templates that are there now, but maybe a seperate tab of them where you could make and save as many build templates as you wanted. They would be stored on your local system and not the server so there would be no increase in disk space needed on the servers.
Guild Wars really needs this feature.

im pretty sure i read somewhere that they are going to add more slots when the next "chapter" is released next year.

Did you forget that GW is free, to have more characters would mean more server space, which would mean more $$

"Four seemed a good number at the time of release. Making decisions is part of an RPG, we all know that. No one can expect a limitless inventory, for instance. We like four, but we're considering the possibilities of more in the future. I believe that when the next campaign comes along, we will see an increase in slots. No idea by how much, but we wouldn't release a new campaign and ask that you wipe a character to play it! "
From the following interview:
http://guildwars.gameamp.com/guildwars/gwInterview
Personally, I also feel that four slots were too few, six would have been great for me, and I can understand the argument for seven. At any rate, I'll be looking forward to the new campaign if for no other reason than the additional slots! Let's just hope that slots won't be specific to each campaign...

Imo, 6-7 slots seems a nice amount.
I'm a pvp'er after doing the game 4 1/2 times over, (still do pve from time to time..) not gonna delete all of my pve characters as i've had to do already with a few of them.
In pvp now playing all characters its a right pain having to remake characters each time to play different proffessions, so yeh.. 6-7 slots, even at least one more slot would be appreciated.

Today I am deleting my warrior primary to make a ranger primary.
Kyten
i would like just a fifth slot to be honest, ive had this urge to play a warrior but i didnt want to delete one of my 2 pvp slots, "old faithful" (spiker) and the one that i use to experiment with builds. so i could keep both pvp slots and have a W/N (i have an E/Me and a R/Mo)in fact i once had a W/N before but deleted him at lvl 8 i forget why, i think it was to make space for my R/Mo that one more slot will make me very happy.
