Downstate View

When someone goes full down, they're able to see the battle field for up to 5 minutes. When we use 3rd party comms, this allows a scout to become a downstate scout. It would be great if full down narrowed your FOV to the immediate (120 units?) around your corpse, masking the rest of the field.

We wouldn't want to completely black out the full down view as it may be necessary to see how many flame rams were thrown on you, or how many enemies decided to /sit on your face.

No. Alts go unchecked tag watching at spawn with no risk all the time, if someone wants to sacrifice themselves to corpse intel gather, then they shouldnt be restricted to what they can see on top of the 5 mins they are already restricted to gather intel.

IMO, dead should be an insta-port in WvW. The maps are already small so getting back to the fight after dead is a minor death penalty.

Yep, map should auto open on screen and wp...

Or just send the player back to spawn immediately on death.

No I think you should be able to pick up and carry the dead, so you can put them somewhere else if they dont respawn. And if you put 5 dead corpses on top of each other, they turn into a corpse throne you can sit on.

This isnt a joke, its a serious suggestion.

The problem with any type of fogging is that someone will likely make a legit mod to hide it anyhow. If not just a simple setting turned off in f11 game options. Like you can already turn off drunks effects.

Allow us to stack them next to eachother. I want to make a Charr carpet at spawn.

Forced respawn the moment you're doubled.Dead men should tell no tales.

But then mesmers will automatically respawn as soon as they dodge :/

I say we try it for a week and see how forced dead ports play. My guess for hardcore players, it will be an enjoyable week.

I am mixed about this, because I've caught many people hacking when I monitor while dead.

A fairly pointless endeavourAnd a poor reason to allow the zerg to reconstitute itself instantly after every engagement.

Now THIS is a reason I can support about quicker forced respawn. Not the 'but but they are giving intel!!!'

If THAT is what turns a fight, then the group that is hit is kinda bad.
