Sileeent.5861 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think I can speak for a lot of players who are upset about infusion effects.I want to make it clear that I don't want it removed from the game!However, I want an enhanced options menu that allow me to control which effects are visible to me and how many stacks of them I can see per character.It's time for such a quality-of-life feature, please do something!

Obfuscate.6430 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I agree with this.I also wonder if loading the particle effects from people's infusions has an affect on performance for lower end machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zzik.5873 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Yes please yes lets us hide effect of player that are not in our party/group. Not just infusion skill effect too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLOTH.5231 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Yep infusions don’t even look cool in my opinion everybody running around looking like they got the plague or something lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coso.9173 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 effects in general are out of control.why there isn't an option to turn off all other players' effects in 2020 is just crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephire.8049 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Definitely. I'd rather miss out on the occasional cool usage of an infusion if it meant reducing visual clutter and improving performance. Especially when some people's aesthetic is whatever will annoy others rather than be a coherent look or colour scheme.Honestly, there probably wouldn't be nearly as many complaints about particle effects if there was a way to reduce and/or turn them off completely.

SoftFootpaws.9134 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Just remove the stacking instead. One regular infusion and one enrichment infusion per character.But yes, visual noise is over the top lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One regular infusion and one enrichment infusion per character.That is still stacking aura's. I think there should only be one infusion aura shown, I have a feeling that when we get the legendary amory that there will also be an infusion panel template, because I think there has to be for it to work, hopefully it restricts aura's to one.

Lamont.5973 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I, also, would like to turn off the infusions of other players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JekthAvid.1408 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think infusions are cool when used in moderation. Having 6 different infusions just hurts xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kharmin.7683 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think that Anet wants people to see these effects so that they can say "Oooo that's cool" and then work to obtain the item(s) that grant the desired effect. That keeps people playing longer and/or spending money to convert gems -> gold to purchase needed things from the BLTC to craft the item(s). Sure, a setting could be made where a player can just see their own effect, but without seeing other player's effects how would they know that such items exist?Personally, I would like the ability to turn off these effects. I just don't see it in Anet's best interest to do so. /shrug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterman.1530 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 You can turn these off in competitive modes - there's an option to show only Standard Enemy Models. Very good in WvW, let me tell you. You can also do the same for Standard Friendly Models. As kharmin wrote, Anet probably doesn't want to do this in PvE.
