Graphics Bug: Camera and transparency

when i move the camera below me (basically “into” the ground) much of the world becomes see-through. also sometimes occurs while rotating the camera behind me. doesn’t occur in cities like Hoebruk (sp?) and Divinity, but does occur in the starting areas.

this doesn’t happen on my wife’s machine and makes it hard to move around and play/fight.

would love a fix for this issue. thanks!

egads, many pages. =) generally i’m pro mount. i’d like to be able to move faster, and enjoy the scenery the art team painstakingly constructed.

RIFT has a good balance of mounts and teleporters at key junctions, and no flying mounts.

as for PvP, i dunno, if done right, mounted combat could be very cool. if the devs were intentional about pioneering such a thing, i trust they could do a great job. but it’d have to be a system.

Auto Looting

yeah, i mean, i mostly grew up MMO-wise in City of Heroes. that’s a good, what, 7 or 8 years? and that game is completely auto-loot. Rewards (“enhancements”) just went right into your enhancement inventory. that didn’t destroy that game. in fact, it was one of its big selling points and great QoL features.

but i’ll leave it to the devs, as long as they’re aware that this is something people are interested in.

It would just make it easier to bot…and high level engineers in low level zones wouldn’t even have to. LOL.

Something needs to be done about WvW loot, though. I’m not really sure what. Maybe just increase the loot distance significantly. Right now it’s too easy to not even notice you helped get a kill.

I also wish that looting didn’t use the same button as…everything else. ; )

i don’t think the answer to botting is to not implement QoL advancements. surely there are better ways?

Auto-Block Accounts we Report / Add Block feature to Mail

A lot of accounts have been hacked. I have received 20+ spam messages and 90% of them were from regular accounts.

fair enough.

then if not auto-block, auto-delete would be most appreciated. =)

along with a true auto-loot feature, i’d also appreciate an area loot feature as seen in SWTOR and RIFT. these little quality of life features would make my life and play experience all the more enjoyable.

thanks!

awesome, would love this. RIFT has something similar going into their game, and it looks like a sweet feature. i’d love to see it grow and be expanded.

i’d love to tend my own herb garden in my very own home, which i can then use for cooking. =)

Auto-block is a potentially bad idea and this has been discussed elsewhere…

Someone’s account gets hacked. They goldsell. You autoblock them. The issue is resolved, they have control of their account. Now you have someone blocked for no reason. Eventually, your block list will be huge and what if that person suddenly has a legitimate reason to talk to you?

eh, that seems a bit far-fetched to me, but ok. normally i see gold sellers with ridiculous spam names.

at the very least, after i report the spam it should auto delete the email. i also don’t like wasting time with this.

Story Skipped or Changed? [merged]

um, a part of my story was skipped, but i was only Level 1.

Character Name: Foldegaard
Race: Norn

I was in the Norn starting area, heading upstairs to join the Great Hunt. It seemed like an area event had started involving fighting the giant worm thing. But I was still on the stairs and not near the battle.

The beast was killed and it immediately skipped me to the concluding animation, saying I completed the quest and the battle was hard fought.

So I missed the whole opening boss thing I think.

Shame, too, I would have enjoyed that.
