Just wondering if Anet is getting the sales they are expecting.

I havent bought one but i already got the free storage pane.

How about you?

Alazardragoon · Apr 24, 2009, 07:26 AM // 07:26

None, Will try to get the free one sometime this weekend once the site settles down a bit maybe sometime around 5am on sunday.

Didn't buy any storage, just got the free one. But, I did buy a makeover kit.

$9.99 is far too much to ask, I'm better off buying a mule for at least double that.

not planing on getting more panes, will get the free one eventually, have a month to do so ;-). my guild leader bought all 4 already though. O_O

0. will see if i can bother even finding out how get free one

Imaginos · Apr 24, 2009, 08:30 AM // 08:30

with this craptacular update in re. to bags/storage I won't be spending ANY money for anet....and I'll be rethinking buying gw2 if this is how they'll operate in the future.

haven't gotten the extra tab due to ncsoft website errors not letting me log in. /yah!

I used to really really be a big supporter of anet but now...meh.

free on both accounts, and that's it. Dropped some coin for some characters for the 5 slot equip bag, to open up some space elsewhere. Maybe eventually I'll actually get the full bag on my main char. Stupid thing still won't hold all my armor though...but it'll be a big help.

Back to the topic on hand, I bought all 4 storage panes and I could hear the angels sing when I did it. I didn't buy them for extra storage (I bought enough char slots in the past) - I bought them so I can access my stuff easier without shuffling it between mules, and they are SO worth it for that.

They were £5.95 (UK pounds) each, which was cheaper than I expected - current dollar/pound exchange rate says they should be more like £6.85 each. Put it another way, the UK price is the equivelent of about $8.65.

Managed to get my free pane as well a short while ago - NCsoft site is still struggling, but traffic seems to a little lower now and I managed to get through eventually.

I'd try buying or getting something if I didn't have to do it through my PlayNC account. I always have issues getting into that account. DX

Shadowfox1125 · Apr 24, 2009, 09:10 AM // 09:10

None at the moment besides the free one. And I'll most likely never buy one considering the fact that a mule would cost the same and would yield more storage. I also have 3 other accounts, so.. yeah. Amazon Black Friday $5 Proph ftw.

pumpkin pie · Apr 24, 2009, 09:12 AM // 09:12

lol, not going to buy any, infact i log in and sold all the unnecessary items in my storage and what do you know, i don't need that much storage at all. going to try to see if I can get the free tabs when the hu-ha die down.

Falling Petal · Apr 24, 2009, 09:24 AM // 09:24

I didn't buy any yet but I have a horrible feeling the game will wear me down till I give in. I got the free one, and I'm thinking, "No, I won't buy any. Don't need it. It's fine". But evey time I log in the sparkly store advert in the corner of the screen gently beckons me. Every time I go to my stash I see the greyed out tabs I can't access. The next time my stash gets full instead of doing a spring clean I'll think "Well just >one< more tab wouldn't hurt, I could keep collectables in it!". Help! *whimpers*

Cab Tastic · Apr 24, 2009, 09:47 AM // 09:47

I bought 3 tabs. Nothing worse than running out of storage.

I really don't mind throwing some money Anet's way. I have had very good value out of this game over the years.

It was such a trivial amount of money it was a no brainer.

DJCoastal · Apr 24, 2009, 10:13 AM // 10:13

None... I rather buy extra character slots than storage tabs in my opinion. 45 space > 20 space

Yes, if you're short of storage space, buy char slots. Same as ever.

However, if you already have plenty of storage, extra tabs are far more convenient for accessing your items, than moving things in and out of mule storage. That's when 20 xunlai space become better than 45 mule space. You might still think it's not worth $10 for that luxury, but I sure do :-D
