Nightfall Bonus Pack extra slots - Guild Wars Forums

SolidShadow · Sep 29, 2006, 01:30 PM // 13:30

today i went to the shop and bought 3x nightfall bonus pack, cause im not supplyed with master or visa i bought multiple to add them for the character slots it says on the box.

now is my question, when i enter the key now it wont show and extra character slot but it says it shows at nightfall.

can i add all 3 keys so i can have 3extra slots at nightfall or am i screwed by anet?

Uhh, you get the 1 slot when Nightfall is released for retail. As far as I know, getting 3 bonus packs will not give you 3 slots, but im unsure of that since, no one has ever said anything about it, and Nightfall just isnt released yet.

SolidShadow · Sep 29, 2006, 02:02 PM // 14:02

im absolutly sure now it doesnt give you extra packs, i just trashed a full 20euro.

when you enter the game it doesnt give a slot, it gives a slot if you add official nightfall to it, i cant add more then 1 key then it gives me error.

the nightfall box says :

Bonus items: Additional Character Slot for your gw nightfall account, if i buy 3 it should give me 3 slots, cant believe those %$^%$ didnt even took 1second to think about that when they created the bonus pack.

very nice customer service thank you very much.

The fact is, the bonus packs were only intended to be 1 per person or 1 per pre-order.

I should also point out that the Store does accept Switch Maestro. Surely you can get that?

KvanCetre · Sep 29, 2006, 02:26 PM // 14:26

Bonus packs are meant to be 1 per account.

The Pointless · Sep 29, 2006, 02:29 PM // 14:29

Didn't I more or less say that? (No offense, but...)

DeanBB · Sep 29, 2006, 02:45 PM // 14:45

You can only add 1 Nightfall to an account and thus trigger the 1 preorder bonus so why would adding 3 work?

Sorry, people just need to think through these things, we see the same thing with "I just bought a 2nd Factions but can't add it to get another 4 slots". It is kinda like the sun shades you put in your car window that say "don't drive with this in place" or buying coffee labeled as "caution, coffee is hot". Common sense rules.

Maybe some day they will have a card on the store shelves that adds a slot, like you can buy time in a game that way?

Have you already opened them all? If not, return them?

take note of the 'for your NIGHTFALL ACCOUNT....'
this means no slot until your account has a retail nightfall key.
you'll get a slot then, but I dunno about having more than one to get multiple slots

officially confirmed several times by Anet ONE PER ACCOUNT

ah too bad for the op then, it shoulda been on the box I guess...
best option then is too ask anet (support?) if they'll activate more slots for the extr bonus keys since you didn't know. Its not an unreasonable request considering the legalities of the fact that it says right on the box that you get an extra slot, but doesnt actually say max one...
Obviously I didnt know either, and I play every day (there's no notification at the login screen) and no in game announcement. The op can't be held libel (sp?) aw heck, responsible... for knowing that if its not posted *everywhere*

When I was 8 years old, I tried to put a dime into the nickel slot of a candy machine - because logically i should get two pieces of candy, right? Well I learned that lesson and now so have you.

It's 5$ here to buy the preorder at EB in canada.. i believe its 10$ american a slot (online store).. dont think he'll get any extras

Xenex Xclame · Sep 29, 2006, 09:19 PM // 21:19

Coudnt you have Asked the question BEFORE buying 3 packs.
Coudnt you have waited for an answer to your question BEFORE you tried all 3 ( meaning you opened all 3)

Sorry, but if you dont try and get info before wasting your money then im pretty sure the money is in better hands now.

ElinoraNeSangre · Sep 29, 2006, 11:29 PM // 23:29

I'd just say give the other two to other people getting Nightfall - not sure how you feel about that because you're still out the money, but at least then they'd go to a good home.

My two preorders were free from EB Games, also in Canada.

the point is im a customer standing in a shop and the onlything im reading is the back of the cd box cause thats all i can read.

it says it gives me some free weapons, concept art and a slot for my guildwars nightfall account.

then how can i ever know i can only use 1 of those cds.

the blaim is 100% at the maker of the product not on the buyer off it.
cause i pay for what im reading on the product and it aint working like it says.

so far from anet support is: use the blablabla online thing to buy more online slots, great customer support they dont dare to day that face to face when im standing in a shop.

Your question was answered; if you have a problem with Arenanet support, take it up with them. Closed.
