Guild Wars 2

Le me be clear: “Player Experience” is being ruined in the JP. The experience is great, very positive, when this issue doesn’t interfere with my progress.

Before some troll says “get good”, I have already done runs of 14… when I was on maps where no one was using a character that blocked out the sun.

It’s not QQ’ing to point out the simple fact that one cannot do a JP if they cannot see their own character. It’s basic common sense.

There are 2 solutions, one of which is definitely easy to implement:

1) Easy: Fix the existing toggle for standard character models so they work at all times, regardless of where you are in the game or what you happen go be doing. The toggle we have works in Divinity’s Reach but it’s not working in the JP for some reason.

2) Maybe? : Put all norn and char in their own instances so that no one else has to deal with having their view blocked.

We have been trying to get something done about this for three years. Enough is enough. Fix the standard model option so it works in the JP already.

Or I’ll just have to grab my own norn and ruin someone else’s experience just so that I’ll finally be able to see myself.

No, I don’t want to become part of the problem… but if Anet doesn’t fix the toggle so that standard models are used in the JP just the same way they work in DR then my only choices are to let my experience be ruined or ruin someone else’s.

I hope it doesn’t come to that.

They fixed it for clocktower, heaven only knows why they didn’t do it for wonderland.

Pretty much a case of “they overlooked it and nobody was in the office by the time it became an issue”.

Same reason why the megaserver fails to properly close JP maps too.

This can be good news… if they only overlooked it and know how to fix it then I wonder if we can get a new build with the known fix implemented within only a few hours.

How about it Anet? Can I look forward to logging in and adding one more reply to this thread to say “Thank You!” before the end of the day?

Pretty Please?

Too late, I would be surprised if they did anything this year, and they will have forgot all about this by next year.

I’m assuming they were out the door the day before Christmas Eve and won’t be back until after New Years, which is right before the weekend so everyone will probably be nursing hangovers the entire time. I can’t see a hotfix earlier than next Tuesday, honestly.
