castlemanic.3198 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Figured this might be a fun topic, what kinds of things that would probably cost more development time and money than they're worth would you want in the game?My personal thing is having a boat with a canon/some sort of long ranged attack and climbing walls/cliff faces (i know we have the springer and skyscale that already invalidates this, i did say it's unnecessary)What would you add?

Danikat.8537 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Probably the ability to decorate home instances like we can with guild halls and/or new private instances we can buy or claim and then decorate. It would be easy to monetise but I'm still not sure it would be worth the time required and it wouldn't really add anything to the overall game. I'm not even sure if I want it because Elder Scrolls Online has that system and I still have mixed feelings about the amount of time (and gold) I've spent decorating my homes in that game.Also the ability to name mounts like you can with ranger pets.

Ototo.3214 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Decorating home instance and/or being able to move around where the home instance nodes are.Can my kill proofs for raids just be bringing people to my home instance where I have a bunch of prisoners speared to the walls with a ton of junk stacked in the middle?Oh, almost forgot, on the topic of home instance things I've also always wanted them to add some sort of library type thing somewhere, where you can store all those books you get from various places. I always feel bad deleting them but I also dont want them eating inventory space. Was thinking it could kinda function like how you can put the books back in the Astralarium in Istan.

Donari.5237 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Couples dancing, eg vintage waltz or polka. Something that actually links two consenting characters together while whirling about. Bonus points if the dancers can hear appropriate music while dancing and if they can initiate special moves like a twirl out-and-in. (Side benefit: Would possibly use the same tech needed for passengers on mounts).I think that matches the OP's parameters for suggestions :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naqam a.6521 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 1)Remove the ''Collide with everything'' option for new accounts ....Show the fluency of the engine...2)Offer them a portal between the starting area and the Silverwaste for 3 days , if they choose to use the Boost . (in order to avoid messages -''how to get out'')3)Sent them an in game mail when they use the boost , where they can choose 3 portals : a) Play the era of harmony (Vanilia) , b) era of actions (PoF) , c) better avoid the era of Torture (HoT) .4) Allow people to unlock the episodes of PoF for free (one every 4 days) , but they sign a contract , where get reduced (60%) gold/loot for 4 months (exept from Raids or any other event you want to funnel them , or in the HoT area) . Starting June-Semptember of 2021 .If Steam get released on November , they will need 4-5 months to learn the ''ropes''and around that time they will try to maximize their goldc) Create a sidequest , telling them : ''On the 6th day we will pay a visit in the PvP + WvWvW area , but if you wish we can do it in 24 hours!''

Jagblade.4627 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 The ability to dismount and fall in mid air without the use of bond of faith. Going further though, manually initiated idle animations added to our emotes as well as the removal of the mechanic that automatically puts your weapons away after a few seconds when you manually brandish them.

Yggranya.5201 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Well, i have always been an advocate for: if the game is about fighting and killing, there should be copious amonts of blood and gore. Even something small like in an old game i played years ago called, Requiem: memento mori, i think it was called would be better than that the enemies simply keel over and vanish into a better place. Truly funny when you dismember an enemy, they fall and start twitching before they take their last breat. Hilarious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
