Pure Heart.1456 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Dear Anet, Please fix the issue of backpieces disappearing when an emote is used. Please also fix the issue of backpieces disappearing when sitting in a chair - for example, perhaps add an option in the menus; "enable backpiece display on chair use". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge shot Grif.6450 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 You know what the worst part is? All of the old emotes would let you toggle your backpiece off then on again and you could see it during the emote but the newer ones apparently resist that and won't show it even then. The fact that we can brute force our backs to show during the vast majority of the emotes makes it seem like this is a very possible fix. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebulous.2934 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 for the majority of lengthy emotes, you can go into the hero menu and toggle the hide/show back item off then on again. After you do that the back piece will be visible for the rest of the emote's runtime. I haven't heard of new emotes disabling this work around. I don't know of any workarounds for chairs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I am posting. It's been 12 years and the emotes suck. I guess no-one uses them--probably because they suck. I would like to use them, but... you get the idea. Edit: Forgot to mention, actually, in the hero menu and toggling the backpiece show/hide on and off "trick" no longer works.

Liewec.2896 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 yep it bugs me too, i did have a method to display them but Anet nerfed it a few months back for no reason. backpieces aren't really counted as part of your character so they have a few silly quirks, like when you use something to change the colour of our character (like a hylek potion for example) your backpack is uneffected. so if you have a character like mine who is an angel and you want to use yellow hylek potion to glow celestial yellow, the wings will remain white >_< 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was kinda fun getting different shades of a color to make the wings look right. For those two wings the dye channels can affect each other.

Eloc Freidon.5692 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 The emotes we get is nice, but no one has a clue why the emote game is so poor compared to GW1's. From function to variety. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Calaway.9718 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 No just emotes, there are parts in the story that do the same for no reason, like in S4 when you are walking towards a supposedly dead character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
