Default An idea for anet to give players more storage and a home.

I have read about buying more slots for guild wars Why stop there? I think Anet should make a package game with storage, one charactor slot and a home for people who want them. make this game package like mini sems, a add on for gw. Where you can buy stuff for your home. Say you get extra storage with your home. Sell this package say for $30

I would rather see them put the time and effort into other improvements (more PvE content?) and future chapters.

A home would be great for additional storage. Buy a bigger home to give you additional storage slots.

Although I'd really rather see extra storage as an ingame option though instead of buying. Like 5k for a bigger storage. Another 5k (or however much) for more storage and so on up to a max storage size.

But if they arent willing to do that then buying storage is the next best thing I guess. :/

This sounds more like an idea to sell "House Space" for X amount of real life money, just as new accounts are being sold(?)

And then whats next they sell you the furniture and stuff for real life money(?)

Sounds like pay for perks. Might work though.

I like the idea of in game homes, but paying RL money for it? No way. Just make the damn expensive (50k+) and kinda like Guild Halls.

First, if I'm going to pay real money, I want real stuff for my real home. Like Guild Wars comforters for the kids, Guild Wars drapes for the kitchen and living room, Guild Wars plates and cups, and Guild Wars bath towels, hand towels, and face cloths.

In game gold gives me in game storage. Like every rune of holding costs 500g. But if you want to add a second rune (for 15 spaces in the one bag) to a bag that currently has one - it costs 1000g when you go to add it. If you want to add a third (for 20 spaces in the one bag) - it costs 10,000g when you go to add it.

I would really like to buy all the things in the firstparagraph as well!

1 extra character on same account is already worth the 30$... and having a home which you can custumise in time (with alot of plats) in a city special with all playerrs homes... would end up like a mix of Sims online and GW, but would be alot of fun. would be nice if they also brought in a marriage. get married with a player (only 1 at a time), you two are the onlyones allowed in the house, etc.

after i get tired of shooting arrows at Ice imps, i can come home and my "husband" cooks me dinner.... :P

They have talked about in-game marriage too.

I once played a game called EUO, and they let people who donated money get houses. Those houses were like a giant storage too. You could customize it with furniture, display cases for your weapons/items, and it was really a great idea that added a lot of new players. Would be pretty cool if there were towns with districts too, imgine the parties.

The only way to logically do homes would be to have them just like Guild Halls, only smaller, personal, and with inhome storage that you can only access when you're home. Then you can allow for customizing of your home (for a price in gold and materials) and can invite say, up to three guests to visit that have no access to your storage.

I like this idea.

Say for example (though the chances of this being true is like 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 to 1) some guy has ALL of his slots (storage, backpacks, belt pouches, bags) with 250 ecto in each slot AND he has 1000k in storage and 100k on char. He is stuffed... He would practiclly have to give away his ecto's, seen as he can't sell them cuz he has max money.

So extra storage would be neccecery in this case, though in actual GW it would prolly never come up in a 1,000 years :P

yeah but what good is new items and such when you don't have anywhere to keep them it's kinda bs that all 4 of your char share such a small storage and soon to be 6 they are demanding way to much out of such small space

Yes, the storage is a problem for most players and some resort to "mule" characters just to carry excess stuff. One of the problems is some want to keep everything and that just isn't practical. Sell or give away your excess to free up storage space. Maybe they limit it just so people won't horde 500 weapons. If I get a nice max damage weapon I'll hold it for a few days and ask if anyone in the guild needs it. If not I go to Ascalon and give it away.

I'm not against more storage, but I have learned to live with what I have.

Did you know that they are now going to be offering the ability to purchase extra character slots for $9.99?

Really, I think with that news out, that this suggestion is way too expensive. $30 for a $10 thing and a little more storage. Is storage really worth so much that you would pay $20 for it? I don't think so...

1. Your "Home" should be Guild Hall

2. Mule Account as your storage

well homes would be nice and for extra storage.... but custemizing it would be kind of boring or kinnda stupid since... you wont really be using it un less you can have a show case to show off all your cool weapons and stuff ..a chiar would you really be stting on it since thier are no sit commands well thier is but its for the ground and not sitting like a real person would do on a chair just in IMO...

but a storage and a show case area would be a good idea... the only resaon i think this would be a good idea is im just not to sure how guild storage would work if its for all the guild means you put some thing in thier and some one ells takes it... not to sure i'll like that much or put money in thier and ect....so what im hoping for is that the guild storage will be indivedal and not for hole guild if its not whats the point in it....
