Guild Wars 2

The idea here is not to debate about clipping or standard view in PvP.

It’s to propose a new outfit that is all custom with our choices of skins.

Example : I got a guardian but I want it to wear a “robe” when in town. With this, I just activate the outfit when I want.

It’s not the same. Because you will choose one type of armor for all the pieces.

Anet said they would not allow a reverse of the classification types of armor. Because the pieces will not match between them (clip).

Hello,

I open this thread to do a suggestion about an idea I have had a time ago.

It concerns outfits. It’s a great value for the game and it’s nice to have some outfits you can put while fighting. And now, with the pvp system for the standard view of class (heavy, light and medium), all players can see what type they are fighting.

I understand that it’s not possible to transmut a skin from a certain type onto another type, like a skin from a robe onto a heavy armor. But, it would be great if we could have an item that can make our avatar wear another skin of armor from a type he can’t actually wear.

My idea is as follow :
- Put an item on the gemstore named Custom outfit (or something like that)
- When this item is consumed, it adds a special outfit in the outfit list
=> See attached file #1 or http://i.imgur.com/DmrQriP.jpg
- This outfit adds a button (like “Custom outfit”) and when someone click on this button it opens a new window
- On this new window, we can choose what type of armor we want between light, medium and heavy
=> See attached file #2 or http://i.imgur.com/KmVo5J3.jpg
- Then, this choice open the wardrobe (with the skins the account have) for the type selected. And we can select the skins we want.
=> See attached file #3 or http://i.imgur.com/eSXho0Y.jpg
- When we hit Apply, it consumes transmutation charges for any changes we make. Then, the Custom outfit becomes an outfit like any others outfits
- For Dyes, it should be on the hero panel and have 4 choices, like other outfits. But it should behave like a preview. The first dye match the first slot on the piece, and so on.
=> See attached file #4 or http://i.imgur.com/wP8qh5B.jpg

When someone wants to change his outfit, he can custom it again by changing the type and/or the skins.
We should have the choice to let head, hands and shoulders blank if we want, but it should always consume one charge for each slot changed.

I would gladly buy an outfit like this at 800 or even 1000 gems even if I should pay for transmutation charges after each change.

I hope you will find this idea great and support it.

Have a nice day

So, yesterday, I tried to RP with someone. Not in one of my guild nor in my friendlist.

We discussed for an hour and the afkkick did its job (without warning, as usual). I relogged, and I … couln’t see the one I was talking with.
I was on other shard of megaserver …

Add friend … party … join megaserver …

Great. Still not working.

Since megaserver :
- more goldsellers spamming
- more annoying chat in /m or /s (rage, frustration, …)
- more taxi
- more lag
- less fps (jump from constant 60fps with good quality to 20-30 with mid quality)
- less fun doing WB events

Thank you Anet.

I agree. There is much more trolls since the megaserver. It’s really annoying to see some people jumping around or using skills when you try to immerse in the roleplay …

And since there megaserver, there are places that we ignore completly just because there is much more trolls there. :/

There is still some issues with the megaserver.

A few days ago, I went into the map Wayfarer Foothill for a RP event.
At the Horncall Waypoint, I saw a lot of people. From my point of view, it was a guild event (no RP event). I guess they were maybe 40+ people. I pass trough that and went to the rendez-vous point.

Here, I saw a character that I knew to be a roleplayer (but not in one of my guild and not in my friendlist). I sent a PM to one of my contact (friendlist). We grouped together and I joined his “world” where all people were.

Same thing happened two days later on the same map.

So, why I was in the same “instance” of a guild that was not in my contacts (40+ people !!) and was not put in the same “instance” of one of my contact ?

It’s really crappy to need to group … We can’t interact with random people and with contacts we are not sure to be on the same “instance” …

At first time, I was worried about the megaserver thing. But I tried to see how it will work and how I will find all the people I meet everyday. And, guess what, I was unable to find them. Even if they are in my friend list or in one of my guild, I didn’t find them. I’m really sad about this days …

I’m a french roleplayer on the non-official RP server : Jade Sea.
When GW2 launched, I was roleplaying on another game.
My friends told me to come. And I came a couple of months after release.
And since this time, it was great. I had tons of RP. I met some new people. On lots of map (not just DR so), I met people, just random people, who I got to RP to and who was not in my friend list or in a guild we share.

But, since Tuesday release, it’s impossible to me to meet new random people. Even the guild up thing is not working. On Thursday, we got a cultural norn event on Hoelbrak (yeah, event to drink beer :p). We have to group with other people we knew they was coming to bring them in the same map. I hope this is kind of broke and will be repair soon. At least, we will be on the same map as our friends or ours guildies. But for all the random RP people who were on Hoelbrak to see this event, I guess they were lost. How can you put this people who want to RP with if they are not in your friend list or guild ? I guess the only way to do that is to put people that from your home server (and with guesting). RP people who knew that when they choose Jade Sea, it was to roleplay.

As I read this thread (yes, I read all this dozen of pages), I saw some people don’t understand how RP works and say we need to group/guild. But, RP is not like that. RP is something that can connect you with people you don’t even know. It’s like in real life. For example, you can ask a random guy for your way. And this one can tell you the right direction or the bad. He can follow you, try to buglar you, etc. It’s the surprise thing that is important in RP (with other RP people !). If we stay on group/guild, we will not create enough game content to amuse us. We need to interact to a large of people. So, it was good to know that on our home server, we will find this people. Actually, we don’t know where we are. We don’t recognize people we are used to meet. And, on EU servers, there is more people who is not talking your native language. And there is a lot more trolls …

So, at least, please, bring us a RP tag and mix us with people from our native language.

I guess I don’t recognize this game anymore. I’m glad I will be away from the game for some weeks, so I will see on my return if changes were made in the good way.
