Guild Wars 2

I think Arenanet should add at some point down the road a commander panel or tab. Something that has an icon/name with health on it sort of like the icons of party members. And also a number next to them indicating how much supply they are currently carrying.

Using the command /squadinfo is a little annoying for me haha and it bugs me that I can’t see who is in my squad at a click of a button. It would certainly make it easier to see how everything is going, especially in a fight or to make sure everyone gets supply coz it is annoying when people forget haha

What do you guys think? I think it would be a good addition to the game.

Entire C&S system needs a major update. They have said they are going to upgrade it, but no time line and no idea exactly “how” they plan to upgrade it.

Upgrading the commander system and UI is on our goal list. It’s a complicated task, requiring lots of resources however, which means it isn’t going to happen overnight. Believe me though, I find our commander system almost entirely lacking in useful functionality.

I hope they really make changes that players want….. some kind of private commander system for guild events is a big one for me.

If you are a commander.. the map should zoom out and you have a birds eye view of everything.. ALA star craft 2… what would be lol..

then you can give commands that way.

Be nice to have a Zone commander leading, and sub-commander / guild commanders that he can issue orders too. This way guilds can flag private and form squads the way they want and the zone commander can see where they are, how many people in each squad and issue orders.

Lots of stuff they could do.. but first they need to allow private commander forces for guilds.

Seriously, no need to do everything at the time and push it all together in the same update if you are working on commander tag.

Just a tiny bit of change every update would be appreciated.

For example color! Don’t want to make a UI to change color? Make it random… Every time you put up your tag the game chose a random color for it. This can literally be done in 5 minutes with a few lines of code…

There is no excuse!

All this stuff, including private squads and colored commander tags for guild squads were suggested and asked for back in the beta weekend events.

ANYTHING would be an improvement at this time.
