omg that is sweet.

if you are reading this gaile - make an option to purchae additional character slots on one account too (fromt he website possibly?)!

I dont have enough slots now, i dont want to buy another copy of the game because I want all my characters to be directly linked, and I am guessing that with the possible creation of new professions and races I will still not have enough in the next chapter.

Pretty please! Run it by the frog!

i think thats prob what the frog means by additional family members if you think of your characters as your "family" of playable chars

I do believe that the Frog was speaking of extra character slots when it said there will be a means for "Additional family members." Cape removal is coming, along with new professions, mini-games, guild storage, possibly an upgrade trader.

Pets and summons are staying with their respective classes, and skill prices are staying put.

Yes, he did indeed refer to account characters with family members

If you visit my clan page (www.warriornation.net) you will be able to find a topic with comments, and a higher quality picture.

I think youll see the MAX number of Playable Chars available be raised to 6 as there are currently 6 main professions, that way it would allow everyone to make one char of their choice having the main professions available

raise to 6 yes but dont forget at least 2 additional professions which will still leave you short.

choices, choices

This makes me believe that one of the new classes will rely on a computer controlled AI in some way; the frog mentions that rangers are the masters of pets, the necromancers are the master of summons (although the differant types of "summons" is incredibly limited >=( Where's my elite summoning skill?)

Marriage in GW... if your mate dies in the same battle (on the same team), you automatically shout IWay and stop what you're doing to cast Vengeance.

You could face an entirely different batch of creatures in the PvE world at night.

Cause it would give replayability to the missions/quests.

Imagine Thunderhead Keep at midnight in the pouring rain.

Now THAT would be awesome! Great idea MSecorsky! With the streaming it could very well happen too!

For the first time in a LONG time, I am excited that Halloween is coming too!

If past history is any indicator, ANet has something special planned for us! The only question is can anything top Gwen flaming all our butts after that BWE!

The talk of new and distant lands has me intrigued! I'm really bored of the same old map.
Portals mean we could have new continents, new PLANETS or even new galaxies to travel to and explore! The possibilities are endless.

Imagine a world with really strange plants and terrain (much like Zen in Half Life) Imagine a "time portal" too. This could take you to the future or even the past.
A new chapter could see us going back in time to destroy the charr invasion which then makes the searing non-existent and Ascalon would be back to normal

.

Halloween..oh wow. I do hope we have a beta weekend. I wasn't fortunate enough to have heard of Guild Wars when the Beta weekends were rolling so i hope we get to taste some action.
Never since i was a child have i looked forward to Halloween so much! I hope were not getting false hopes.

What did the frog mean by "subdivisions" when asked about houses? Was it something to do with bandwidth/districts/custom server load?

Why can some crafters make clay/mud bricks if we won't be able to build a house?

I love all this frog talk. I think it's the BEST thing that Anet has in their arsenal. I only wish i could be there for ONCE!

Immersion factor mostly, even though it rarely has no impact on the game play.

I think he meant "subdivision" as in "neighborhood" (Suburbs

)

Urgh, suburbs. No way.
Much rather have my own instance of Talus Chute with a cabin nestled beside the troll cave.

Yes. And lightning while we are at it. ^^ It would be SO much fun to wander out into a mission and find some random weather effects, even if they werent overly immersive.

Family. Funny. For some reason it reminds me of the little cars with the colored pegs in the Life board game. I have too many pegs. They currently do not fit in my car. I want to buy a back seat for my car - not another car. At least it sounds like they are working on it.

Talk to that lady in Lion's Arch who is by the ships. They already name a new continent south of Tyria for us to explore in the future.
