You know how in some colleges or some places in towns (in real life-) they have like a live webcam? Heres my idea (tho it will never happen)

Provide a link on the guildwars.com site to the LIVE FEED or something... basically a camera will sit in a town (such as LA or even marhan grotto) and you can basically 'watch' whats happening in the town just from going to the GW official site. They could even mix it up a little, have it switch towns every so often. No UI boxes, no chat logging- all you see is the toons running around and dancing or whatever.

OK so its a pretty useless idea, but hey you never know.

The idea is nice... but the creation of such a function I would think would add a lot of bandwidth to a game that's designed to be as light on the bandwidth as possible... never mind the lag that it would create.

Not for public at least, way too much nudity (yes I'm refering to you ya fatbumed wammos)

Horseman Of War · Oct 08, 2006, 01:50 PM // 13:50

Hmmm bandwidth, yes.

20 minute delay like obs mode?

And hey its not nudity if they are wearing underwear... having no chat logs is also important tho

yeah- damn wammos and their pelvic thrusts... gotta ruin it for everyone

Why is it that live-feeds is synonymous with porn'

I was considering this idea... but there's really no need. Care to provide a situation where it would be useful?

you can observe hoh. gvg etc matches. thats all we need. we dont need people running around trying to sell stuff.

Nice thought to start with, but think about it seriously. I couldn't imagine the boredom level I would have to reach to want to sit and watch a town when I'm not playing. I don't really care much to watch them when I am playing. Maybe if there was nudity it might be worth while

Why not just place a really high tower in every outpost, so you can climb to the top and look down, at everyone else?- It would serve the exact same purpose.

Commander Ryker · Oct 09, 2006, 05:11 PM // 17:11

It would be cool only if they did it when Gaile was somewhere. That way those of us who can't get in because of full district would still be able to watch.

You can already do that by changing your view.

It could be a nice way of attracting new players, perhaps if they like how the game looks from seeing the community they will want to join. Just make sure you edit out all those WTS. :]

I don't see the usefullness.

Put it in towns when Gaile Gray is there! Then we can read what she says when she pops in. Might be informative to people that dont visit sites like this often.
