April Fools: Bobble Heads
or set PC time to 3rd April or later..
Yeah, nah bro. No worky.
Try adjusting your settings to lowest then log out and back in. The bobble head did not show for me until I put my setting to higher.
Mine is already at the lowest setting and it still shows bobblehead >.<;;;
Ok, nvm, on certain map, that method works, but on some other maps, it doesn’t work Q.Q

you did …turn off the client … set the pc time , then restart the game right ? ..its works like a charm on my end i teleport around from zone to zone just testing it , no complications..
@ Advent Leader: Thanks, helped a lot. Opt out makes this a funny April Fools joke.
I might be repeating the others but just don’t log in till April 2.

Indeed I did. Oh well.
How do you get a headache from looking at a big head? lol, just wait a day if it bothers you that much. Kind of ruins the spirit of the holiday if people can just opt out of a prank.
but anyways, you could try setting your computer’s date forward to april 2nd. Or back to March whatever. It seems to be client side.
I THINK some people have a type of Coulrophobia(for the lack of a name for it).
Coulrophobia is a fear of clowns and mimes, and other individuals whose identity and intentions are obscured by things like makeup. What does that have to do with bobbleheads?

You said it right here(out of context), “and other individuals whose identity and intentions are obscured by things like makeup.”. In a sense the bobbleheads are an obscured representation of its true self AND I DID SAY, “for the lack of a name for it”. Go figure.

If you look close enough you can see my chinbutt….
Lazy.
After SAB last year this April fools is pathetic. It is simply more of an annoyance than funny and the only thing it has accomplished is for me to log off for the day and play another game.
Disappointing Arena Net, but disappointment is something you seem to excel at lately!
Ok, at least on my end every other login (completely exiting game and restarting) gives me bobblehead. I don’t know if me messing with dates had anything to do with it, but you can try exiting the game completely and restarting it and see if that gets rid of it.

Thank you ArenaNet! <3bobble<3
I like how people think that the bobbleheads are the extent to what ANet has planned for April 1st. You may be right, but there are a lot of hours left for other things to happen.
TY ANET for the funny.

Give it a rest. Everyone knows you’re just being a Fanboi.
And that aside. There are people like myself that are getting headaches from it, be cause there is too much motion going on from what you are normally used to in the game. And my eyes are trying to process every little new motion, and it’s causing a massive headache.

ACTUALLY, Im FAR FROM A GW2 FANBOI, just check my posting history, I may be one of the most critical people on these forums AGAINST GW2, although, on occasion they put things in that tickles or intrigues me. I’m sorry it gives you a headache , but, it’s not like it’s permanent, I myself would get sick of it if it were, but, it’s only for 1 day, GEEZ.

Thanks but no thanks.

System restore points don’t help, either. Pretty sure it’s not client-side, at this point
Of course not, system restore only deals with system files. This is something that’s just coded into the game and activated today.
I wouldn’t have any problem with it if the size of the head when trying to use the Total Makeover Kit was normal. :<

I would sell 14 of my 15 characters into slavery for a Bobble Head Tonic.
And I know everyone’s with me on this ‘cause they’re all nodding their heads in excitement.
I can’t stop laughing!! TY ArenaNet

That’s not what coulrophobia is, sorry man. Bobbleheads scaring people is closer to automatonophobia.
Also, could you stop yelling in caps?
I think the bobbleheads are great, and I’m very sorry it’s badly affecting some people. And I’m especially sorry that while I’m playing right now, I’m beginning to develop a migraine from straining my eyes (I’m legally blind in one eye..) trying to see enemy animations around my enormous noggin, and it’s starting to make me nauseous. It makes me sad because I really enjoy the effect and find it funny. Part of me hopes the migraine is coincidental, but I know it isn’t.
I love the bobbleheads, but they’re messing with me. I’ll probably have to play in very short amounts of time and space it out to avoid it bothering me too much.
This hit while I was fighting a wurm in Snowden. Though for sure that my game was glitching.
Good one, Anet… Good one. XD

This had me in stitches, good job on being completely horrifying, there!
I can see how it would be funny at first, but after the OMG effect wears off it’d just be stupid. Good for a laugh for some people, nothing more. I hope set up so that when people log in they will see it and if they like it have a laugh, for me however I saw it and want it to BE GONE.
Guess no one saw the Dulfy take over of Wiki yet…
Which is really ironic because she never contributed anything to the wiki
Currently playing Heart of Thorns.
If anyone’s still upset that you can’t turn the bobble off, confirming that setting your system date ahead worked for me. I love it, took a video of it, will be turning it back on, but my laughter almost got me killed.
Someone needs to get an Ettin, they have 2 heads…..

Sooo, why doesn’t my game give everything bobbleheads?
All the people getting headaches are being called children and old women. I expect to get motion sickness as I am prone to that, will try it out tonight! Why are people so against others having the option to turn it off when this option would not affect you if you love this bobblehead feature?

Is the date on your pc correct? Try changing it to April 1 if not.

Definitely April 1. Oh well, I guess I’ll pretend to be part of it by laughing at other people’s screenshots.
I think it’s only 10 mins out of the hour, log out and back in it should be normal. It will be a bit of a pain to restart game for a whole day, but at least it’s not 24 hours strait.
