On June 17, 2014 a number of players swarmed an Anet Dev to grovel at her feet. These humble players were desperate and had only three requests:
1) Put the aviators back in the gem store
2) Tune the game’s instruments to be in the same key.
3) bring back formal and official GvG
While the latter two were a much requested items, the former was so enticing that players from all around the mists joined to make it become a reality. Anet has yet to make a statement on the issue, but the attached picture shows just how much support the requests have garnered.
Actually, I would have done just about anything in the effin world today just to have a server channel, that only your server can see, when I needed an all-call to our Borderlands in WvW earlier. Anything. But I ended up going to LA and doing it in map chat anyway, even though this meant our enemies hearing it too, that’s how badly we needed to rally.
Server chat channel, Anet. Server chat. Make it happen.
Not bothered about any of those things. Sorry.
I’m even less enamoured by the idea of paying to have these things implemented.
What I want to see are useful, functioning features like a proper block function that removes everything associated with a blocked user – whispers, emotes, mail, guild chat visibility and even visibility in general. Additionally, by blocking someone, they should not be able to ‘follow’ me and see where I am in-game.
Also, for RP purposes (not as though Anet actually gives a toss about RP), additional visibility toggles for other armour pieces. Since Anet decided that customisable town clothes are now out of the picture and armour transumations will now cost even more than before, there’s few options less for customising our characters except through overpriced gem store items. Then again, Anet has already said no to toggleable boots so there’s no chance on them implementing any other switches.
No, I would not pay for either of these to be implemented though.
I stole a special snowflake’s future by exercising my democratic right to vote.
Instead of trying to turn us into something like lotto ticket scratching junkies with the BL chests, they could instead sell the weapon skins directly on the gem store like they use to do. Or something even crazier, they could give us the option to unlock the entire weapon set in our wardrobe for $10-$20.
“2) Tune the game’s instruments to be in the same key.”
This is not how instruments work. Different instruments are set in different keys intentionally.
I would be more happy if they tuned them to not work in the hands of the unskilled…..Thank ANET for the silence instruments setting.
Well…. only so much that they can do there. I mean, yes it’s a game (so we can shut the sound off), but it’s not really any different than people that pick up instruments and play them horribly in real life.
Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

You mean they have uses other than to be sliced and put on bread with miracle whip after being freshly picked? gasp

I dont see much support for those things in your pictures, nothing in map chat, nothing in say chat.
You are greatly exxagerating here.

I’m with you. I couldn’t give a toss about any of those, and I would not pay money for any of them. Ok, I can see that proper GvG needs to be implemented because it is such a large part of the WvW endgame, but I would not pay for it.
While they’re at it? Guild commander tags. Thanks.
While we’re on the topic of “paying for content”, this thread is the direct result of the Anet/NCSoft decision to monetize “missed content”. Now people seem to think that “paying for content” is the new normal, despite the fact that it is the “old normal”.
My posts are facts as I know them, or my own opinion, and do not represent any guild.

That is the strangest bruschetta recipe I have ever heard of.

While this is true, common real life instruments can play every note on the chromatic scale. Since the in-game instruments cannot play sharps and flats, it is impossible for them to be able to play together for most songs (few exceptions exist). Thus, for game purposes, the instruments need to be tuned to the same key in order to play together.
