[MERGED] The Guild Wars 2 Ideas Thread

[DELTAg]

I've tried playing Lord of the Rings Online, and it's kind of fun, it's not really different from other Mmorpg's (GW1 is alot better ofc), though it has BEAUTIFULL graphics.

When playing the game, I found out you can play instruments.
Like, you equip an instrument, type /music and you use your hotkeys (1-8 (you can use shift and ctrl to play higher or lower notes)) to play on the instrument. Altough it's slightly buggy with the timing (sometimes the note comes a bit later than you press the button (might be lagg though)), it's REALLY fun, I've learned to play Ode to Joy and the Imperial March on it! You could even form a band!

But I'm not here to talk about Lotro, I'm here to ask Arenanet to put this feature in GW2.

Here are some great examples:

Not awesome? Imagine a charr playing Titanic on a harp. There you go!

OMG this is so awesome! Yes, totally /signed for actually playing instruments.

Bonus if it takes all 10 skill slots.

Also, lol at "still alive". I want to marry GladOS

This idea gets the bunny seal of approval.

Only thing would be to only play music if the person playing is targetted. If the person is in a team then so long as one of them is targetted then you'd hear each team member's part.

I wouldn't require fancy settings like being able to ignore etc. But one way to do it is if the signal goes via chat, you could put a bad player on /ignore. Or more intuitively, just walk away.

[DELTAg]

But I doubt that idea will reach Anet though :(

[Alaris]

They probably already know about that feature in LoTRo by playing it.

[Bilbo Baggins]

I would use it, but I could see where precautions would have to be taken to prevent "sound griefing" like those lovely Abominable tonics.

I really wonder if this feature would be added, I'm really enjoying playin instruments on lotro (I think that's even the onely reason I play the game now). Its fun to have people gathered around dancing why a few play some songs.

Also: How about being able to carry the person who is in "downed" mode out of the combat zone?

How about being able to use him as an environmental weapon instead?
