I will be paying almost 140,-EUR since I intent to buy 2 collectors editions, one for each of my accounts.
That's quite some money, don't you think?
Right, and you'll be getting 24 hour early access to get a little headstart on everyone.

Because, the character won't have anything you get this weekend. Maybe Anet should just delete all characters created during this event to save some grief.
Just make the identical character again during the early access. You might even have some better faces to choose from (I certainly hope we will...)

How much are you paying for this "poor service"? You bought the initial software for the game and you havent payed anything since.
This is not the first MMo that I have played, but it is the first free one, and if anyting the customer service at Anet is better then the pay games. I don't think that people understand what they are complaining about half the time when they complain. You really cant expect to have everyting handed to you on a silver platter because its what you feel you deserve. you need to look at the overall game dynamics and the big picture before you go off about menial details, like will we get an extra 2 slots for this 4 day event, because we all know that would have such a HUGE impact on everything..../sarcasm off
why do sooo many people feel the need to complain about people that complain? (lol look at me ) --its not about sliver platters its about having fun and getting value out of what you pay for. If people don't think they are getting value then they should complain.

I don't think that it is unreasonable, most MMORPG's require a monthly fee to play, and the customer service is at least as good here as it is on the pay games. As far as paying for 2 collectors editions, if thats what you want to do thats fine, but you still arent paying a monthly fee, and if you have 2 accounts, you are probably pretty s4rious about it, so in retorospect, no i dont think that that is very much money considering what you will be getting out of it, especially since thats all you will be paying.

I just hate when people don't look at the big picture and they complain about something that is already better then most other games out there. If you don't like it so much, then stop playing, no sweat off my back, i for one am completely satisfied with the product that I am getting for the price. I have spent $100 on the game plus factions, and have been playing since the game came out, thats less then $10 a month, most MMORPGs charge about $15 q month plus the cost of the game, if you don't think thats value, then maybe you should stick to yahoo spades or something.

People want things for free... period...
People want to sit arround and complain about their $50 for a video game.... that says alot about the rest of their life...
So you get 4 slots, delete a character or use a temp key, and STFU... Guru turns into the whining grounds of all the 15 year olds... there are already sooo many posts about how "Bad" this preview event is etc.. etc.. etc..
I say to you people stop playing the game, because your a DRAG!

Or, you could just stop reading threads you know will make you upset...
--chill y'all -- it's nothin personal ... i'm not complaining about the number of slots for the weekend... im just complaining about the people complainig about the complaining...

Oh yea that wasn't directed at you... and yes I'm doing the same thing.. so I will stop now.

lol, pretty funny, others will complain that your complaining about people complaining, and they will be complained about as well. I'm just bored at work, this keep me awake throughtout the day!
I don't understand what the big deal is. This was explained before the FPE even happened, am I expecting too much out of people that they would actually read the information that is already available?
why could they not just make it so you can take your characters to the new section?
The people who play the game the most don't have spare character slots and have to muck around with invitee information that many who have friends in rl have already given out.
Does this mean that we are not going to be able to play our main characters in the new game? If so I want to cancel my pre-order.
This is just one crap thing amongst many in recent updates - I can see this game going the same way as Eve online (crap game play)

Because this is still considered Beta - items are still being finalized. They don't want to give you an item they may have to change later.

Muck around? How hard is it to email yourself an invite? There's a thread here full of people with extra invites if you needed one.

No, as has been stated clearly, you will be able to take your old characters into Cantha if you link Factions - that's the whole point of linking Chapters together.

Only time will tell what will happen to Guild Wars, but basing your opinion on a small beta preview event is probably not the best way to judge a franchise.
Wow, just wow. You DID NOT enter the Factions key. Nobody HAS the Factions key. You entered the *PREORDER* key, which does not give you slots because it costs like, what, $2? Calm down, when the real key comes, you will get six slots. Everything you do WILL be reset after this weekend, except for unlocks. But good god, just send yourself an email and enjoy the weekend.
OMFG, your old characters WILL go to Cantha, just not for this weekend so you can't aquire any new goods. This weekend is a PREVIEW weekend, NOT a weekend where you can play early.
God, I swear some people on this site CANNOT read or something.
I sent myself an invite since I have 4 character (PvE) slots full and that's what everybody was saying to do. The clent thingy just locates my current GW install and the only options are Run Guild Wars from current location, Reinstall and Uninstall....zuh? So I booted up GW anyways and added the invite key from the email and.... nothing. It looks like you still have to delete a character to join the FPE so I give up. I'll check out Factions April 28th when I buy the full game. Heh.
You people complain about stuff way too easily... I have all four of my slots on my main account taken, but do I complain... NO. I just make a seperate account to play. It's not a problem. I did it for the PvP weekend and I had fun. Thats all that I care about this weekend is fun... I'm sure you can spend your faction on your main account for stuff to unlock this weekend if you have excess of it. Just dont complain. We dont want to hear it.
Hey, complaining seems to get you somewhere sometimes here.
I don't really give a dam, but it would be nice to keep unlocked skills.
Oh well, I guess I'll wait until I get the complete game.
