Sick of Type 1 when rdy?

I think there should be a checkbox beside every players name in the party window. This way they can check it to make the leader aware when they are ready to start the mission, quest, HA, GvG or etc...Instead of asking everyone if they are ready, I see this as a much easier way to tell when everyone has there skills, attributes, set.

agreed, soo many times ive pugged and then ppl go "ive not set my skills" or "opps i forgot rez"

agreed
and kind of funny i was thinking about a similar idea before i saw this.

or don't start until you get a reply back? You've now solved the problem of everyone really being 1 for whatever you are doing, and no additional code needed! And it's already in the game!!

I'd rather the devs work on ways to improve our storage space frankly.

The 'Ready' problem is the last thing mentioned in the first post and there are 2 solution given. Yes, i would love to see everything in the first post in the game.

Thats amazing.. Although I'd rather have a check box then the green bars.

now that's a winner, big bright and noticable

The bars are a little too bright, but it works.

/signed for all that guys ideas on guildhall.net


Why is it so hard to implement them when a guy on a forum just did it better then Anet probably ever will?

Motion very definitely seconded. I like both options for the "ready" problem.

I'm so sick of coming back from a quick bathroom break to find us in a mission, when I didn't even know we finished looking for more party members...and oh, look, now we have 3 healers and only two damage-dealers... >< Or groups who don't listen to "hold on a sec while I change from channeling to restoration." Yeah, people should listen...but even groups that listen make silly mistakes, so it's useful, and easy to implement. Strong thumbs up.

I imagine they're busy fixing bugs or some such. That kind of thing isn't as easy as it might seem...hell, "even" Microsoft has a hell of a time at it... I'd give them the benefit of the doubt that they're trying hard to fix things up. I'd like some more (or perhaps, "better") communication on things they're considering implementing or working on implementing though...

Have you guys thought that people will automatically press 1, suddenly go afk to answer the door and then not come back for 20 minutes???

/notsigned. Manual procedures give you the assurance that everyone is available at the time that you ask them.

then they should click the 'Not Ready' button, or uncheck the box (whichever idea i like them both)

Holy
Crap

Seconded to the max.

OMFG! GREAT! /signed 1001 times

That guy's work's bang on, he should get a job at ANet.

Definitely /Signed

This is a super fabu idea! I hate having to wait for the preps and having to count numbers to make sure everyone is ready, but not to play devil's advocate, you'll still get people who will complain they weren't ready and forgot to uncheck the box.

/Signed, I was thinking of something like this too a while ago.

EDIT: I read the ideas in the topic directed to in the post above and those ideas are absolutely amazing! Just amazing!

/Signed for all of them!

/SIGNED!!!!


Now I have to round up my friends and neighbors to sign.

This has already been considered: one of the suggestions was to have the "Ready" option only after the group leader selects "Enter Mission."

There are only 5ish posts above yours...please read them before responding.
