How can I get the mission pack when I have all the games? - Guild Wars Forums

getalifebud · Oct 15, 2007, 11:43 AM // 11:43

As I purchased prereleases the most character slots I could want would be two, so I can have a PvE of every profession and a PvP character. Then all that would be left to buy would be the 1 million edition upgrade. That leaves me ??2.03 short of getting the mission pack. What to do?

Get another character slot...

getalifebud · Oct 15, 2007, 12:04 PM // 12:04

But I have 9, if i get 2 more then i will have one per profession and a spare, is there really no other way than to get a slot I will never use?

PvP unlock packs are a good bet, but they are gone now I believe ready for the new ones to be deployed in the store...

Yeah, looks like the extra character slot is the way to go, and then at least you have a PvP slot

Does the merchandise count?

Bryant Again · Oct 15, 2007, 12:29 PM // 12:29

You're buying through the in-game store. So yes.

"Umm, no"? It's bullshit that you're unable to buy those products through their endgame store. I'm not saying I don't believe you.

Why?

Its NCSoft merchandise and not game material... The ingame store is purely to add content, etc to your game account, nothing more and buying a tshirt really doesn't add anything to your gaming experience (unless you can only play whilst wearing the tshirt, whats thats a strange idea that i know someone somewhere will be doing...)

It's a Guild Wars product, so I feel like it should be brought through the in-game store. Many were hoping that there would be better products/choices to buy through the store besides GW:EN or extra character slots for people that already own all the campaigns.

Doesn't amount to much in terms of an argument, but it all comes down to what I feel. I understand why they don't have them in there (now), but it would just be cool if they did.

and there is more coming, however no, its NOT Anet merchandise, the Guild Wars merchandise and GW itself for that matter is all NCSoft product... The ingame store has and always has had game material, the PlayNC store has always had physical product, they are two different types of stores

Remember aswell, you need to have a game account to use the ingame store aswell, you only need a PlayNC account to use the PlayNC store, two very different things, not to mention the fact that the ingame store only stocks what is available from the PlayNC GW section anyway

Havre Fras · Oct 15, 2007, 12:51 PM // 12:51

The merchandise is just wank clothing and such with a GW logo slapped on them to up their price. You'd be better off making one yourself at a million times cheaper.

So, really, you'd be better off with an extra slot. Sure, you might not need it, but you never know when you might need it, either.

In otherwords i'd rather spend a tenner or whatever the price is of an extra slot is than spend triple that on a shitty t-shirt.

getalifebud · Oct 15, 2007, 12:59 PM // 12:59

No i really would never need an extra slot unless I wanted a mule, because as it is If I buy 2 slots and 1mil upgrade then I am £2 short of getting a mission pack and have 11 slots.

If they are adding more stuff to the store, whats the point of adding it after the mission pack deal ends?

To piss people off, no doubt.

Other than that I can't think of a valid reason.

gremlin · Oct 15, 2007, 02:19 PM // 14:19

I was in the same position except I already had everything except pvp which I didnt have a use for.
I asked and they said other merchandise was coming I waited till gwen came out in case they added something like a collecters edition inc mission pack.

They didn't so thats why I now have 14 character slots.

It does mean I have 45 storage spaces per new character and of course more minipets per year.
I just set the new characters up as traders and dumped everything I was likely to sell onto them.
I could have set one up to farm dye in presearing I suppose but I have loads of dye so dont really need to.

Mordakai · Oct 15, 2007, 03:38 PM // 15:38

Yep, I'm $5 short myself. (2 char slots & GOTY upgrade).

I wish they had another $5 upgrade, but I could use another Char slot... for something I guess.

super strokey · Oct 15, 2007, 05:03 PM // 17:03

i bought gwen online for this very reason lol... now i just hope i actually get the mission pack
