I am 100% certain you are aware of these (because a bunch of posts were made about these) but I feel that maybe a reminder would be handy. I have highlighted the MOST important parts for easy reading so you can spend the time fixing the bug instead of reading, for your leisure.
The bloody prince shirt on female asura (at the very least) does have a hole in it that you can see through your character with. It is a fairly large hole and since we paid for the outfit with gems, maybe you could fix that? It kind of is the thing that shouldn’t be in an AAA game. I mean, if you tested the item on each race and simply panned your character in a circle with each one, you would catch this bug in development for a simple 10 minute session of testing.
Also, the grenth hood doesn’t work properly with the legendary weapon, The Juggernaut.
Considering the amount of gems the hood cost and the amount of time/resources required to grind the legendaries in this game, it would be nice if we could fix this issue that was reported many many months ago.
6 months!
If this bug was a child, it could crawl and would begin to make attempts at walking.
If this bug was a progeny, it could bloody well open the dev tools and fix itself.
The issue is, I am sure everyone remembers: The Juggernaut effect does not apply to the hood, so you either have to choose between your legendary or something you paid for in the gem shop. No, dying the hood doesn’t work because the effect is never the same in each zone and frankly it should have been fixed upon release of the item.
The shiny effect applies to every other piece, except the cloth part of the hood. If it was the shiny part it wouldn’t be as bad! However, the cloth part not matching makes it look tacky.
These are just two of the issues with stuff we paid for in the gem store which have been reported but never fixed.
I am sure many people would appreciate a fix as it -really- wouldn’t take very long, I know this because I have done 3d modeling often and know plenty of people who do it regularly as their job.
I know it has been a long time since halloween, and the cash grab for the grenth hood and bloody prince jacket is already there, so why fix it since people won’t be buying more? Because customers did purchase them and had faith they would be fixed in time. It has been 5-6 months. Please fix these, we would appreciate it.
On an unrelated note, the halo/horns cannot be used in dungeons and really I think they should be allowed in dungeons considering the (surprise) time gated, epic grind for obtaining them, a cosmetic item. I do not think they give us an unfair advantage (some consumables that actually do damage are still allowed in dungeons), I do not think the particles are an issue (we can use them in wvw and pve)… a maximum of 5 possible players could possibly have either a halo and/or a horn in a dungeon. Is it because it would take too long to throw the (probably solitary) item flag in the code that allows it to be used in dungeons or what? We can play our instruments and costume brawl in the dungeon because they are cosmetic. The halo/horns are likewise cosmetic.
Plants, As far as I know are still, still bending toward
the light! And if we dance, until the heart explodes,
It’ll make this place ignite!
