And remember the money you put down for the preorder goes towards the purchase of the retail game. So you're getting the extra character slot for free. It also applies to the CE version. At least that's how it's been for the last two chapters and I dont see why it would be different this time.
Reza: It means you get 1 extra slot from the preorder and 2 for buying the game. 3 slots total if you have both the preorder and game.

Guild Wars Nightfall Bonus Key, providing one additional character slot for a Guild Wars Nightfall account

Let me be the first to predict that the extra slot will only apply to standalone nightfall accounts.

Dont make unfounded predictions. It says straight out that if you preorder, then you get the extra slot. Although, I think you can only keep that extra slot if you buy the actual game as well.
Or do you mean "standalone" as in only people who buy Nightfall as well get them? If so, you're using the word "standalone" all wrong.

I underlined + bolded the part of the press release that's the foundation of my prediction; feel free to pay closer attention. My point is that it says you get a bonus slot for a NIGHTFALL account. Anet could just as easily pull another merge-and-stiff on those of us using the product as an "expansion". All I'm saying is that it's happened before.

Its the same as the Factions preorder...Except with a character slot...
*Yawns..
Most people already had to Buy the Preorder seperate for Factions (from places like Amazon with their 1 dollar deal) because of the horrible messup with Anet and getting the preorders out - so just directly charging for this one makes sense..and covers up their mistakes if they make any.

Dont get your panties in a wad Celios. Fact is, you said STANDALONE... meaning that you said people with ONLY Nightfall will get the slot, which is not the case. I was only pointing that out so people dont get misinformation that youre spreading.
And if there's any more doubt that you do indeed get an extra slot:

hi people.
i went to the GW site so there would be nothing lost in the translation.
THIS IS NOT A FREE/CHEAP PREORDER PACKAGE BUT A RETAIL PURCHASE.
expect to pay at least 10 dollars to cover the cost of the slot and since it is a retail purchase you might not (depending on store) have it applied to your purchase later.
from GW
Quote:
ArenaNet® and NCsoft® today announced a brand new retail package which will soon give Guild Wars® players their first look inside the exciting upcoming release, Guild Wars NightfallTM
|
note this says nothing about preorder but prerelease to the final retail game.
there may be a preorder without the slot later for free/1 dollar/ apply to purchase but in the entire GW announcement the word *preorder* is never used once

You buy this, and then purchase the game seperately.
The "point" of buying this is the items, bonuses (like music and screenshots), and the Character Slot.
As long as it is under 10 bucks...It's worth it.
Kaldor Meshekal - That page you put in Babelfish is just the Korean version of our page for the pvp event that just passed. It explains how to be in the event, Then gives the Attributes of Dervish and Paragon, and then explains that you can get medallions and trade them for Flames, Firewater, or Creme.
