If the problem is the occasional clipping with large shoulder pieces (WoW aesthetic…), then just rework it slightly and make them stretch the arms to the sides or forward. That would look badkitten actually.

EDIT: Somehow it filters the entire word to “kitten”. I modified it, it’s now atleast “badkitten”, so you can probably guess what I meant. But yes, it’s a positive word, not a swear word.

soo an animation interferes with a small aspect of the game, in a very small snippet of content, for a small number of people, and a huge proportion of the playerbase is impacted?

Why not, just, yno… address that specific issue? If idle animations interfere with cutscenes (and i can see how they might, most races have a ‘bored’ idle) – stop idles within cutscenes.

Seeing as everything clips on a Charr, the removal of animations shouldn’t be reason because a few skins clip. Otherwise, you’d have to remove the swimming animation too where shoulders clip into the face.

A few more “idle” animations wouldn’t be bad, for all the races/genders. After a while the swaying of the arms back and forth seems a bit weird

The release of the expansion would have been the perfect time to bring these back. Throw that switch finally.

“Yes guys, its still in the queue and we’ll get to it eventually. We’re sorry but we’re doing the best we can with the HoT release and all the bug fixes’’

‘’At this time it’s not something we’re considering any more, because there are many other things we need to focus on.’’

‘’NEVER! we don’t care so stop pestering us!’’

Any of the above examples would satisfy me at this point. At least having an update on the issue to know if it’s still in the works. Or then at least give us some closure so we can nerdrage and eventually move on.

At this point I agree with you, the ’’dramatic’’ cutscenes represent below 0.1% of our gameplay. They legitimately purposely removed them because some vocal minority were crying about that 0.1% of their gameplay, not even a FIX but a straight out removal.

Well, I cannot sort the bug thread by replies or views, but apart from the threads collecting lots of threads into one topic this one is among the top if not the top thread in the bug area … maybe you should seriously consider taking back your hack of a fix and reintroduce these anims no matter whether or not you actually develop an almost non required fix for dramatic cutscenes. And just to put this into perspective – yes, I may not quit over this( else I would have done so) – but it counts towards the negatives that accumulate and it has some weight. And I did take breaks from this and other games, sometimes even for very long times when their aggregate disappointment added up enough.
This is a great game with a lot of facets that allows a lot of people to find stuff they like, but it certainly seems like a collaboration of experimental code snippets with no consistency and quite a few unneccessarily ill decisions more often than I’d expect.
Then again maybe I am just getting too old and intolerant after freelancing 30+ years in IT and all the other 400+ replies and 35k+ views are just as worthless.
Kind regards.

Wow, what a joke. Can we get someone, anyone – at this point i really don’t care if it’s Martha down at accounting – from Anet to give us an update on this? Have you scrapped this or what? I don’t see why it’s so hard to just let us know “we’re working on it” or “we’re preoccupied with other stuff.”

It’s the not knowing and none of you over there talking to us that’s more annoying than the kitten bug by now. As John pointed out, you had the resources to fix this over a year ago and we haven’t heard jack since. It’s not fair to your players!

Unbelievable.

I have contacted Support. A couple of Game Masters replied to me that this issue has not been ignored. I’m leaning to believe them but it has been over a year and this issue, when compared to many others, it’s not something really hard to work on. If they manage to remove with such ease, why can’t they put it back? Some NPCs still have it and now the Human Females have a new bug related to their left arm which switches position everytime an animation ends.

I never got to see this idle in-game and it’s really sweet.

So from the Guild Chat, a streamer complained about inventory buttons being too close together, and Anet is going to change it, but yet after almost 2 years and several posts about this, Anet does nothing? And on top of it all, now the female humans left arm bugs out when stopped from an animation, such as running. Just wow…..

Thing is, nobody would mind new gemstore stuff if we wouldn’t have such a “bug” for such a long time go unfixed. Not only was it not fixed but there is zero communication about it. (What was there months ago is also very confusing.)

I bet that the developer who made the tools is not working at the company anymore and nobody else understands how to rig animations. Now we are waiting until Anet’s HR dept. hires an intern who can do it.

I understand that an idle character animation issue is not as important a bug-fix as, say, an event bugging up, a bug preventing story progress or this new bug where you’re reset to where you enter the map but… well it’s been well over a year now I want my chronomancer to be able to stretch her arms like she used to!

I guess with esports, the few glider wing colors that we are still missing and the pile of bugs out there, this is not likely to see the light of day, but it makes me sad.

I just rewatched the old Commando profession video and a few of these animations reminded me of this thread. Glad to see people still care. Too bad Anet doesn’t seem to.

It seems crazy but I’d pay gem to re-enable them on my account.

Anet can just tell us if they want to put it back or not, no need for us to suffer continuously really =/

Just be honest and tell us if you want to bring it back or working on it or not going to put it again, being honest is not a bad thing after all.

Thank you.

Edit:

As a former gw2 player who used to play regularly and spent hundreds of $ on this game every year, it’s things like this that made me quit the game. This particular issue might not be the number one reason why i’m not enjoying the game anymore, but it’s definitely played a role in my loss of interest so i just want to emphasize how disheartening this thread has been as a whole and how it ended up impacting my commitment to this game.

Just to quickly recap, this issue has been reported almost two years ago, and as this thread gained traction and got merged with other threads asking for the animations to be fixed or put back in, Gaile Gray eventually jumped in and announced that the issue was actively being looked at and that it would probably take some time since they need to assign a dev to reconfigure the animation parcels.

Well that was over a year ago, and since then, there hasn’t been any news or update despite many players asking for exactly that. So what we’re left with here is an issue that has been known for over two years, an issue that was aknowledged as needing fixing, and a big whole lot of nothing since then.

I know this isn’t the end of the world or even such a big issue at all, but the way it was handled left a pretty sour taste in my mouth, just like many things that have / haven’t been done since HoT’s release. I’m left with the impression that ANet just doesn’t care, or even have enough respect for it’s paying customers to provide them with an update, because who cares right?. Well I don’t… not anymore.

That’s it for me, it’s the little things that used to make this game great, and like a lot of other little things, this one is gone, and so is my wallet.

This is ridiculous!

I’ve played this game for a while, then stopped and came back recently. Now I’ve learned that they have removed animations from the game, considered the removal a ‘bug’ and then left the community in the dark? Who does this?

Seriously.. does ArenaNet even care? Can’t anyone just update this issue…? Many people liked these idles. Seeing female characters brushing their helms isn’t something I like to watch endlessly.
