April Fools!

I don't see a lot of people discussing possible ideas for what might happen in GW on the 1st of April next Thursday.

Are a lot of people not interested, or did I just wake some people up in the knowledge April Fools Day comes in less than a week?

For refreshing memories:

2007: Gender Confusion: Males became Females and vice-versa.
2008: Stick Man Army: All characters became black-lined stick figures.
2009: Gwen-Chan-o-Rama: All characters became the Gwen-Chan Doll and a false update was made with all sorts of bizarre changes.

So what do you think might happen this year?

GW2 close beta invites.

I actually think it would be kind of trippy if they just suck the color out of GW. Imagine logging on and everything is in black and white.

I'm a fan of black and white movies, so I guess it'd be more of a kicker for me, but I'm sure it'd freak a couple people out.

Or maybe being turned into random enemies of your profession while in town? I wouldn't mind being a wind rider for a while.

I'm very curious as to what they'll whip out for April Fools. Looking forward to it.

Edit:

Maybe make the player characters black and white on a colored game, or vice versa? Might be interesting to see colored enemies/players on a completely desaturated landscape.

GW2 release. I predict that one will repeat for the next 3 years. After which it'll be replaced by the GW Greybeard, where all toons turn into doddering old pensioners, tottering about and nattering on about "The good old days" and complaining about poor support and broken GW2 promises... :P

Oo I kinda forgot about April Fools, ty for the reminder! I have no idea what the special design will involve.

I like your idea about the black and white Hyperventilate, that would be cool

White mantle? Shining Blade?

#dismantle

all characters will use the assassin class model.

Players will log in to find their PvE mesmers, dervish, and paragons missing.

Players will not have an option to make PvE characters of such professions.

You win Cuilan. I bow to your logic, sir.

Would lack the "shock" factor, because honestly, who would really be surprised?

you forgot to mention ursan being allowed in pvp

i never really logged on on april fools in the last few years, do the effects of it last for the whole day?

with a para and a mesmer as my most used chars, id be pissed

Heh, not a bad idea. Either that or just push "Invert Colors" on the entire game for a day. Oh man, seizure reports left and right...

Well... they usually include a fake skill update, as you all know. I think it would be pretty funny if they made the changes absolutely outrageous, and actually implemented the new changes, just for a day.

I will reiterate my request for a "kick me" sign on our capes

costume day---like when doing the brawl...your female ele becomes cynn, male argo etc.

I like the stuff they have done in the last 3 years, the funny updates from last year were great.....hope they keep it up!

All armor/weapon sets will be changed to the appearances of starter armor/weapons. Epeen ftl

I lol'd at moriz.

The entire gameworld is vaporized by the Great Dragons, except Rata Sum and the Raptor Cave.

The description to Shadow Form will read as it did before the recent nerf.....

Making all sin users wet themselves... then turn emo when they find out the skill operates in its current form.
