OK so my idea is to have a emote that doesnt do with fame, but with the XP you have earned throughout different players on you account. i mean i have 3 fame woohoo but more than 4mill xp on one char, and thats not even a farmer! it should also be able to say "You have ___ experience between 1...4 characters, and ___/300 some skills." In white like the other emotes. tell me what you think!

no thanks

Kool Pajamas · Apr 13, 2006, 01:09 AM // 01:09

no. XP means nothing. If we have emotes for pve it should be based on skill not time spent in game. Dont know how to figure pve skill but xp shouldnt be it.

Trylo · Apr 13, 2006, 01:12 AM // 01:12

i see ur point...and yes i guess this would be to my own disadvantage as i dont play much myself... o well

Perhaps a PvE emote could be triggered by how many elites one has? I know there are some elites more easily gained than others(...) but if there was an emote for having something like 80% of all elites it might work. And, it wouldn't be problematic with the PvP people "unlocking" elites, not actually capturing them(maybe?)

I dunno what kind of programming reconstruction would have to happen in order for this to happen, but the only other way I see PvE gaining its own emote would be 15k armors or FoW, which isn't really fair because there are certain types of people who would just purchase such things on ebay or some other site.

I think I mayhap gots me a new idee 'r(got it a bit after originally posting, and I don't like having lots of my posts close together, looks creepy -_-)

What if the game based the emote on completed quests? Including missions, and Titan quests. I've seen other posts where people want a type of checklist for the quests that they may or may not have completed, and this could perhaps be a way to combine two ideas into one destructive(in a good way, just like "bad" means "good" with them hip hop youngerster these days) update?

That means Griffon Farmers and 55's get the best emotes. That's not a good PvE player IMO.

deaths/(kills * average level of enimies killed)

It gives you some strange number that could mean something.

Trylo · Apr 13, 2006, 01:59 AM // 01:59

im not good with deaths as i PVP a lot with my roleplayer (like most people) and deaths might have NOTHING to do with your playing skill, just the other ppl who like to leave your party or sac themselves bcuz theyre idiots

i lik ethe elites though, that might work, but i dont think the rank emotes arent very just on your skill as many are just IWAY builds...

QFT

I think a nice addition would be a ctrl + click command that would say "I'm wielding xxxxxxx exp". It adds no rank heierarchy, but gives people a way to demonstrate the amount of time they put into the game

I think that skill points would be a more effective way to show an emote than experience. Much like rank shows an emote, not fame. However, I agree that many builds that are considered "cheap" would have a higher skill point count, much like IWAY in rank. If you wanted to go even farther, you could make an emote for having earned so much faction. Another possible one would be for having all skills unlocked.

But really, all in all, there are unlimited things you could make an emote for. I don't necessarily think these should all be put into action though, because it would become chaotic. Even one more emote may cause at least some confusion.

I finnally broken down printed out an emote and taped it to my screen to ravish myself that yes, finnally, PVE has an emote.

QuixotesGhost · Apr 13, 2006, 06:31 AM // 06:31

It'll make everything wrong with PvE even worse.

Gonzo · Apr 13, 2006, 07:34 AM // 07:34

Please no! I already hate seeing a /rank emote in pve when somebody is trying to get into a team, now with a pve specific emote even more spam!

"Oeh, look at the pretty deer, wonder what he's doing here."

/signet

Signet!

And here is a suggestion for the method of doing it:

Fame emotes = yellow-orange (the color they are now)
Faction emotes = same emotes but green
Experience emotes = same emotes but purple

This way the same emotes may used in 3 different manners. Additionaly, if Fame should be more important, the Faction and Experience emotes would be smaller in size. So, another suggestion:

Fame emotes = bigest size and yellow-orange
Faction emotes = same emotes but medium size and green
Experience emotes = same emotes but smallest size and purple

Still, another suggestion:

Fame emotes = yellow-orange
Faction = a different emote with several sizes and green
Experience = a different emote with several sizes and purple

Note: the size of the emote would depend on the amount of factions/experience.

A combination of these ideas:

Fame emotes = yellow-orange
Faction = the first 3 fame emotes with several sizes and green
Experience = the first 3 fame emotes with several sizes and purple

The 3 different emotes would depend on the reached level the differences in size would depend on a reached level within an emote level. Another idea within this, is that size could be a gradually progressive feature, so that size increases gradually instead of on reaching a certain level.

nerf all emotes

Blaster The Warrior · Apr 13, 2006, 05:15 PM // 17:15

i think an emote with an armor is a good idea, pvp has an emote so why not pve now you just have a fow armor it should have an emote with it. that would cool.

Sai of Winter · Apr 13, 2006, 06:42 PM // 18:42

I would like a gorilla chest pound emote

Gucio · Apr 13, 2006, 06:50 PM // 18:50

I think its a good idea, who said that IWAY rank 12 players are so good? IMO IWAY is the easiest way to get tons of fame, so I can make tons of XP on farming and I would like to get an emote on my char

Jiao Yang · Apr 13, 2006, 06:55 PM // 18:55

OK.. since this issue is raised a lot, i may have a suggestion.
A new type of points that you can collect by completing certain parts of the game. For example, by completing a mission you will get 1 point, for the bonus another point- but if you complete it quickly or clear all the enemies you get more points. You could also get points for clearing the whole of the FoW or UW etc.. and more points for doing them quickly too.
The amount of these points could be emoted..

Francis Demeules · Apr 13, 2006, 06:57 PM // 18:57

Why not finished ALL the missions and Titan quests to get an Emote to prove it.

There already many threads about Emote and stuff.
