Guild Wars 2

I don’t understand why Anet just don’t want give us capes, for people that don’t know , capes was already in the game way back in early beta, some NPC Charrs use to have capes and they work perfectly, it had no cliping issues what so ever, no idea why Anet removed it.

In due time man……….. in due time.

I assume with the recent jump in MMO graphics over the last few years, capes are kitten the computers when it comes to large scale PvP like in WvW.
Notice many other newer MMOs also leave out capes now. Took Rift a whole expansion to add them to the game.

an expansion you say….

What? You want MORE back items to cause you grief, like the Hobosacks do for we Engineers?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Trust me. You don’t want any of the way Anet handles back items.

Capes worked perfect in gw1. I think if wow and Runescape can handle capes it’s a joke if anet really can’t issue due to clipping issues. Capes just make any armor look so much better in games I think. Actually feels like it really completes a set of armor

Pointless thread

This will answer your question.
btw , I think cape looks stupid.

Yeah, we already have an equipment slot for them Anet……[backpiece]

Like I said the capes worked perfctly fine for charrs during early Beta, There are no clipping issues,.

areana net needs to fix all the clipping issues first b4 they add capes… sadly it will take them a long time to fix them

There are NO clipping issues to begin with, capes exist way back in the Beta and they work perfectly fine for even Charr.

Capes did NOT work perfectly in GW1. They floated a scaled six inches off of my shoulders, they were hideous and short (like their skirts, short not hideous, which I do actually want back) and had very little motion. Where capes DID work was City of Heroes, may it rest in peace. But even then I usually went without on most characters and there was still clipping issues but were easily ignored most of the time.

Saying that, I did look at my warrior recently on the loading screen and think she really needed a cape to complete her look but she’s the only one out of 13 characters I feel like it would look any good on. It’s a low priority for me, especially since back pieces aren’t dye-able.

Edit: Link video of capes in Beta working perfectly, or it didn’t happen.

Colin said Anet as been working on giving us capes….. but it is surprisingly complicated with the game’s current engine.

If they give me capes, I’ll want a batman flying thing that they’re adding to the masteries.

If they add capes, well i wont ever use them, as i play charr pretty much only and they already have to many problems with the current armors.
