I’ve ran low-level events at the wrong time or while I was stuck in overflow and been the only one there. Perhaps they could scale the spawns and boss level based on the number of people within the orange DE circle?

Suggestion Forum: Sub-categories

robinsiebler.3801

Please, please, please! Can we have sub-categories? Threads get buried to quickly, people are to lazy to search and consequently you can have 10+ threads saying or opposing the exact same thing.

I should have also added that because of the rapid churn, a good idea may be posted and never brought to light simply because the people reading it at the time did not agree or were haters. Sub-categories would help with this issue as well.

Possible sub-categories:

I write my own lyrics and ?sing? the songs in the game. It would be awesome if I or someone else could compose music to accompany me with . This would add a whole new layer to RP in this game.

I would, however, recommend an additional setting in the sound options so that people who do not wish to hear this type of music, or someone who doesn’t like a particular song, can avoid being annoyed. Plus a bindable hot-key for this option.

I exit to the selection screen when I am afk. Why waste server resources when are not going to be there to use them? If you are in a dungeon, that is a different case, but you are talking about idly idling just for the sake of idling, you idle-pawed kitten!

In-game calendar for guilds

robinsiebler.3801

I would love this! I am in several guilds and some websites have calendars that do not work correctly forcing me to search for some well-hidden post to find the event. Also, I hate time math and the in-game calendar could display events using my TZ to show when the event will happen.

I have to disagree. The screen is already too cluttered as it is during a big battle and your suggestion will simply get lost in the mix. If they are in your party, you can already monitor their health on the side of the screen. If they are not in your party, why care? Fight the fight and revive them if you survive.

Maintenance/Status Info needs Improvement

robinsiebler.3801

ArenaNet is -way- ahead of the curve compared to say, Turbine. But I do not use twitless and I would like to see as much info in the launcher as possible, including advanced notice of upcoming maintenance. If I am about to play and I see that a 2 hour maintenance will occur in 2 hours, I will probably spend my in-game time differently than I would if there wasn’t going to be maintenance.

Lock dungeon waypoints, during boss fights:

And what happens when it is a wipe? Would you make everyone start the dungeon over? Or reset the boss? Either option would make things difficult. A better solution might be to have a timer where you can only use a way point once every X minutes.

The whole contact page needs to be re-designed. I can only give a single string to a contact even though they can have 5+ chars for that account. ArenaNet frequently deletes this string.

I want groups, and I want a page for each char bound to an account for notes.

I also want a way to send a message to all or a select group of my friends.

Personal chat logs

in Suggestions

Posted by: robinsiebler.3801

robinsiebler.3801

I am used to RPing in MUDs, where I can log everything that transpires around me. I would like this feature available to me in GW2. Note that I am not asking for anything that does not already exist; there is no doubt that ArenaNet has to log everything that occurs within the game. They simply need to implement a mechanism for me to log everything in the chat window. I could even perform this odious task manually, if I were a glutton for pain.

I will give you 2 examples of why I want this:

1) I role play a lot. If anything noteworthy occurs, I turn it into a song or a story. While I allow myself a certain amount of leeway for a song, I try to be as accurate as possible for a story. This can be difficult if the story takes place over a couple of hours and many people are involved.

2) I get into a confrontation with someone in my guild (for example). The issue is escalated to a leader. Now, I have to rely on my recollections of the event, the recollection and veracity of the other party and the recollection of any witnesses, all of which may be deemed unreliable. If there is a log, there is no ambiguity.

I don’t really see how you think this is unacceptable for the “average” player. The average player should have no problem completing this on a daily basis, I do it all the time with no problems.

Define ‘average’. I work 50+ hours a week, and have other things to do on a daily basis besides playing a game. A 1-2 hour completion time makes the daily achievement a no-go for me unless there is a serious reward attacked to it.

I wasn’t actually putting your opinion down, I was trying to be humorous. ‘kitten-hater’ should have been a clue.

And you are absolutely wrong about them paying less attention. The way it is now, it is all or nothing, so if they are in fact in other guilds, they would be paying no attention to you.

+10! I spent 2 hours last night completing my ‘daily’ achievement because I couldn’t find enough kittens to gather. I can’t be wasting 2 hours every day killing and gathering kittens. Besides all that blood makes for a big cleaning bill.
