Curse

Pardon if these have been addressed and I missed them. I'm just not feeling well enough to search through them all tonight

However, I digress.

~First and foremost of the things I'd like added, the ability to have an in-game clock on the UI someplace. Can't tell you how many times in the past couple of days I looked up at the clock and realized it was now 3am and I have to get up for work in 3 hours

~Sound effects for at least some of the emotes (I know this has been mentioned before, but...). Things like /boo, /cheer, /clap and /roar (just to name a few) just feel hollow without some sort of sound. This can also come in extremely handy with something like /help, because let's face it, how closely are you looking at your text bar while in heavy combat?

~Alpha (transparacy) Values for UI items. I'd love to be able to just fade my party menu and my compass halfway so that I can get a better view on the battle, without missing important info.

~Disable the Windows Key. At least for when it's out of Windows mode. In many of the games I play it has been disabled, so my voice chat programs are bound to that key. I hate putting it on a letter as it has a tendacy to cause me to broadcast my typing when it's to others or whispers. Not to mention how many times I, as well as others, have gotten caught "tabbed out" from hitting that key.

Beyond that, a few minor things here and there which appears to be getting taken care of anyway. Great game, far and away one of the best, and most complete releases I've seen (not that I've seen all that many, but certainly my share of them).

Hmmm, I have to say, I like all of the ideas. I was saying to my GF the other night, that a transparency option for the interface would be nice. That party manifest is awfully in the way of my view.

I was always missing the sounds... /clap and I hear nothing? Wait - that sucks!

Transparency sounds nice, too.

I don't mind the Windows key so far but it could be an option

I like the clock idea.

Thanks for the in-put

i have a lot of ideas, but i cant remember them right now, I'll post 'em when i remember them... xD

A seperate tab for whispers where only whispers go into that tab of the chat box.

When I go into missions I minimize the chat and don't pay much attention to it until I'm done the mission. By the time I'm done I have to look back through all the system spam to find out if there were any whispers from friends recently.

Elythor · May 04, 2005, 07:56 PM // 19:56

I dont think having a sound for emote is a good idea. Considering how many people spam emotes in town...then all you are going to hear are people /dance and so on. Would get super annoying. Of course, if the filter emote ability also filters the sound...then shouldn't be as bad.

I'd just settle for being able to do map travel with a party without disbanding and ending up on different districts.

Also, I'd love it if the name box in the whisper interface could actually remember the names of the people you've been talking to. I saw two names there once, the rest I just see the latest whisper. It can be quite anoying when trying to talk to multiple people. Like when you get disbanded after map travel

Digitalblast · May 04, 2005, 09:42 PM // 21:42

A toggle on or off in you inventory screen to show/hide guild cape. I wanna see my female chars ass once in a while. I have to wait for a big gust of wind to catch a glimpse of it now. hehe jk. But yeah, on off toggle would be nice.

Please don't close all my windows when I zone.

Good ideas!
