Guild Wars 2

Everytime you glide a random glider you own pops up
How about this ?
It would fun

This would be a great feature.

I wouldn’t use it myself (I have a specific glider for each character), but it would be a nice feature.

(Also it raises the probability of getting a random button for mini pets, which I’d love to have.)

It’s a interesting idea but you’d have one dye set for all since the game doesn’t remember the dye combos per item. I expect that would annoy a lot of people once they realize it.

I don’t know, it’s the same with outfits and people still use different outfits on the same character.

I know some people will change the dyes each time, but I also know others will settle for a dye scheme that looks ok on all their outfits. They could do the same with gliders.

I think it’d actually be less of a problem with gliders because not all of them can be dyed. I have 8 gliders, only 3 of them are dyable and 1 of those is the basic glider which only shows the first dye channel and the 2nd is the ugly wool glider which looks ugly no matter what you do. (The 3rd is the raven spirit, which I tend to pick vivid colours for, which may exacerbate the problem of the ugly glider…but it is supposed to be ugly, so that’s ok.)

Not a good comparison imo. A big difference is that you don’t switch outfits every few minutes or every few seconds like it’s possible to do with random gliders. Even outfit wearers want to look nice and I suspect most wear an outfit for a period of time with the dyes specifically selected.

Not that I care if ANet puts this in or not as I probably wouldn’t use it since I have gliders themed to my chars. What I was saying is that it’s bound to provoke a lot of complaints and I think it won’t have much use after trying it out, unless the player is the type to not care about a theme or a color selection. Considering how many complaints there are for non dyable backpacks it’s probably more than one might think.
