Guild Wars 2

1) performance: would rather a small performance drop than headaches

2) art suffers/fisheye effect: BS having seen triple moniter set ups it look more amazing than ever, as for fisheye that only happens at high FOV (<100)

3) gameplay suffers because positional awareness becomes less necessary in a game where combat is greatly designed around positioning.: Ah the good ole pvp reason. why is this all you have? Once again by using a workaround via the windowed mode (reducing the vert size) you increase the fov or by using eyeinfinity (or the thing that shall not be named)

ALLOWING people to play the game comfortably ie without nausea or headaches should be way more important than these ‘reasons’.

While I haven’t had issues with GW2 I have had it in other games, I would get very bad headaches and feel nauseous in the worst cases. I have always had this problem, most of the time it is first-person games but there are a few 3rd-person ones as well most notably KOA:R which I was going to buy day1 but after playing the demo for 5-mins I felt very ill, so I didn’t buy the game until 2 things happened a 3rd party fix and a sale.

the FAQ is out

There is no reason for this change to the town clothes, it unnecessarily restricts the use of both outfits and the clothes that will become tonics. You won’t have the option to mix & match, I have Devil horns, the pirate outfit and the witches broom equipped on my main I will no longer be able to do that.

Just make them all skins with no armor restrictions since the current town clothes can be used by everyone and are largely gem store only.

JonPeters.5630:

FOV in GW2 is 75, which is the same as the default in Half Life

At least you can change HL FOV.

I would love to do that (I prefer the town clothes panel idea over the tonics)

I also want it removed. It is bad for both WvW players and PvE ones.

Also no other maps in the Mists are needed.

Agreed. At the moment I am running the game with out Post Processing because I hate how much bloom there is.

while not automatic, there is now a keybind to toggle town clothes (scroll down to the bottom of keybindings to bind it)

Couple of things, 1) test whether or not you can hit there, build an AC in the same place in Bay when you own it. The AC unlike other siege (and most AoE) doesn’t need to have Line of Sight. 2) Camera Tool exploit this has been discussed before 3) regarding exploits: posting exploits on the forum is not permitted as the forum moderation team does not investigate those issues. That’s why exploits have to be sent to the following address: exploits@arena.net or to our Customer Support Team as explained above. Reports of exploits sent by either of these two methods reach the correct people who can then investigate.. Include screenshots from you test and the incident.

Just a few things.

1: Dyes – Please make them account bound:
this was a change late in beta info when it happened there was indeed a large thread with anet responses. info on reddit the blog detailing the account wide stuff is cached here

2: Combat UI improvements

The response was illogical, the suggestion was for the features of the mod to be incorporated in to the game.

3: According to this post

“The large number of suggestions in different sub-forums is impacting discussion in those different sub-forums. As such, we’ve decided to open up the Suggestions sub-forum.

Please note that you should not expect a personalized, individual response to your suggestions, due to the massive volume of posts that the Suggestions sub-forum will generate.

Please also note that the Suggestions sub-forum will not be open permanently. This is a temporary solution until we roll out a better, more organized way to provide suggestions to the development team than using the forums.
Thank you for your understanding."

but after 7 months you would think they would create a more organised system (see here)

and could you please edit you post to include the links

Only a WvW player will stay up past midnight to help alleviate the coverage gap
Only a WvW player will have to pve/farm just to break even
Only a WvW player cares about WvW (or so it seems)

Xar.6185:

Excellent suggestion OP.

I can say for sure that I know of at least a dozen people that would buy way more skins from the cash shop if:
1) They had a separate place to store them.
2) They were account bound.
3) Multiple characters could wear the skin without removing it, placing it in the bank, swapping characters, getting item from the bank etc.

P.S.
These same dozen people would also buy more dyes if the packs weren’t grab bag style and were usable for the whole account as well. As it stands now it’s just too exspensive to really go for it in the cosmetic department for people who have more than 1 or 2 alts.

You can count me as well on both skins/town clothes and dye packs.

I agree completely. Posting both here and on the reddit post since this is one of the few times it has be brought up there.
