Muting/Hiding Other Player's New Backpack
Wait, it gives other players a pop-up? What?
delicate, brick-like subtlety.
I’m going to have to second this. I can’t imagine running around in EotM with a couple of those things making noises.
On a similar note I’ve noticed that there are some Miniatures that are particularly noisy too, couldn’t tell you which ones though since it’s hard to figure out which one is being noisy. Whatever mini it is though that screams is probably the worst mini ever.
Perhaps we could have both of these things be muted in the same way we can mute Player Instruments?
it’s not too obnoxious at the moment for me but i can see it will be sooo annoying in 3 days.
The backpack talks every few seconds, you hear it : it is funny the first time, then when you realise it won’t stop talking you just want to push the guy that has it off the cliff.
And when the backpack talks, you can see it as a pop-up appears above it.
I just can’t imagine how WvW will look in a few days with 10 or more people with it in a group.
Ah, a word bubble. I thought you meant it was an actual window you had to close.
Still, I can see this getting annoying pretty quick.
delicate, brick-like subtlety.
My robot barely speaks, I would say every 3 minutes. Not sure if bugged.

I turned the sound off for all this junk long ago. For everyone else, enjoy.
smack..Wut?…smack…smack…
There is an option for “Player Instrument Volume” in the volume settings. I would assume this includes the backpack, but can’t test it.
And yeah, WvW or other large crowds will become very annoying that way
Signed.
I have yet to use my backpack (still can’t decide which of my characters to use it on), but I can see how it can be annoying to other players.
My suggestion: Make it like the Salvage-o-Matics – only the owner can hear it. Oh, and maybe a way to toggle the dialogue bubbles? I’ll personally enjoy it every now and then, but I’d like not having to see it when I don’t want to.

“Player Instrument Volume” seemed to me the logical answer, unfortunately it didn’t do anything and my peace returned when the player left :/
I don’t want to be forced to mute the entire game just for a backpack.
I like the suggestion Skaigash.4715 made

My Player Instrument Volume has been on mute since it was added.
I still hear that annoying golem I wish I can send to the scrap heap. No, I don’t have the backpack.
This is by far THE worst part of the update for me. Even the lore conundrum and side-quest irrelevant-to-the-main-plot first story instance doesn’t compare.
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
Just want to take this opportunity to plug that many of us can’t even hide our OWN backpacks. There are literally DOZENS of us.
Remove hobosacks please.

With the amount of love Engineers get in that department, I’m sad to say that they probably won’t add the option to hide the new packs anytime soon™.

Ressing a guy while the robot speaks, “maybe you should invest in revive Orbs” was pretty funny
