Guild Wars 2

Really! Why Anet, why?? :S

Is it so hard to put a filter on NPCs so they can only talk every 30 seconds, no matter what’s happening? Or make the sound radius for them much smaller. Or let us switch NPC spam on/off.

It’s not just this event – it happens a lot where NPCs will blast you with their phrases over and over. But since it’s the Queen’s Jubilee I thought I’d post my complaint here.

I have to agree. Hearing the announcer say you only have a few secs left when you just started gets old. They should have limited this to the area around each arena. When you look at chat you can sometimes see all announcers say the same phrase, at the same time, over and over. It’s one of the reasons I turned off NPC chat.

When you say turned off NPC chat, do you mean putting the Dialogue slider for sound all the way to zero, or is there another option I’m missing?

I would love a way to switch off all NPC dialogue except when I’m actually interacting them. Having to hear the same phrases over and over and over at an event or in LA is really tedious. So far the best solution I’ve found is just to disable all dialogue, as above.

Agreed, this gets very tiresome. If not the voices coming over the speakers then the highly intrusive text/speech spam in the chat box. I don’t believe I should have to turn one or the other off and have my game immersion ruined by some annoying asura.
