Would be nice if the Guild Wars interface had something that shows the local time so we can keep track if we need to do something (like go to work). Usually have to switch to windows to see time.

good idea, and it has to have an option to change timezones so i can actually see when events are happening instead of guessing

I'd love to play in full view mode but dont for that very reason. Not a major issue but if they ever add that feature i wouldn't complain

Not to mention missions are timed and shatter illusions and other skills like that require timing and you can't really do that easily as it is in PVE. I like that idea and I will support it.

I'd hate having a clock in-game, that's a horrible idea in my view.

Press the Windows key or ALT TAB if ya really need to see the time that badly. Or look at a real clock.

Why not just (if implemented) go to the interface menu, and turn it off?

I have an alarm clock next to my computer, mostly because i'm in full-screen 90% of the time i'm on it so I can't see the computers clock.

Alt-tabbing is annoying when all they have to do is add one small interface improvement.

I'd love the little thing!
It should be very small, displayed alongside the -perf output
It would be a must addition if this idea of mine would get implemented.

and for people like Navaros make it possible to just turn the clock off so it won't get displayed.

just buy an alarm clock, not too hard.

This has been suggested before, read the stickies...

Perhaps just a /time command, that would be fairly easy to implement (just don't go asking for features like alarms and whatnot...).

Better yet a switch -showtime

same as -pref for the FPS display.

then if you want it, its there, if not, no biggy... I personally keep a little digitalclock by my monitor, but it is nice when using a laptop or somethign to be able to see the time real quick without Alt-Tabing out, or looking around for my watch someplace. lol

interesting idea... thanks for suggesting it... ahem again.. lol

I'd much rather they have an in-game clock feature than the annoying "You've been playing for XXX hours. Please take a break." messages.

/not signed - just use the window size and use microsoft clock. However having a timer during Canthan missions would be nice (for masters reward).

Although my current laptop has a clock on the front </jammygit>, having an on-screen clock would be better than making ill-timed glances at the nearest clock. It doesn't take long for things to go horribly wrong when you're not looking in GW, you know.

It wouldnt even take them long to make. A clock is such a simple thing to impliment.

if not a clock, at least perhaps a command that tells how long we've played. i always see the "you've been playing for X hours, please take a break" thing come up but i am always wondering how long i've been on. if we had this, it could help you keep track of the time as well.

I have a watch, a Hi-Fi, a mobile phone and an alarm clock all in plain few, I would not use a clock on the interface, but as long as it could be turned off...

My god, I cant believe someone can actually not want something like this... You dont want it, so you think it shouldnt be implemented? HUD Customisation is possible, so stop whining. You might not use/activate it, but dont come around saying its the worse idea ever or tell people to go buy a clock....
