for PvP maybe,

but for PvE when you play with H/H remember you still control the other 7, so its kind of not very good to have that effect.

This would be a fun thing to use in relax PvE areas, but in the harder ones or in PvP where you have to concentrate it is a very bad idea, because thats not the point from GW PvP(don't ask me what IS the point xD).

How bout we have an option to install a tiny machine in your computer, designed just for this. You get blind, it sprays you with pepperspray. You get cracked armor and it rips your clothes off (O.o) or if you get dazed it gives you a mild concussion...

I wonder if anyone would buy?

Stuff like this is cool in an immersive game like an FPS.. Not a point and click ORPG

I don't think screen effects are needed in this, just more dramatic graphics, but nothing like this will ever happen in GW. I mean how many people would love to see some blood and decapitation?

And when you die in the game, you suffer from an execution style electric shock in your chair.

This is very true. Stuff like this is good for stuff like COD4, Far Cry, Crysis, and others in the same mold. For a casual MMORPG, this just wouldn't work.

27 minutes. But why bother ressing the thread and calling even more attention to it? Should have just let it die and gather dust.

Guess I'm just having a hard time understanding your motives.

current conditions:

* Bleeding, -3 Health degeneration

* Cracked Armor, -20 armor, minimum 60 armor
* Crippled, 50% slower movement
* Dazed, twice as long to cast spells, spells are easily interrupted
* Deep Wound, 20% less maximum health, 20% less healing on this
* Disease, -4 Health degeneration, contagious to all adjacent of the same
* Poison, -4 Health degeneration
* Weakness, 66% less damage dealt in combat, -1 to all attributes

most of these wont be able to show a screen effect.

But. ones like Daze,Blind,Poisen,Burning u would.

Daze: could make ur screen like the heavy drunk.
Blind: could make ur screen uber messed not totally blinded but make it very poor visiblility.
Poisen: the outer edges of ur screen are green like you care poisened.
Burning: the out edges of ur screens are Red or burning effect.
Desease: could make you screen go rly wobbly around the edge and more as it last longer. or jsut the same as Poisen.
Bleeding: can have a red effects around you screen.

Cripple/Cracked Armour/Weakness and Deepwound i dont know but its just an idea i think it would be cool

im gonna get some photoshop and have a look at what i can do to the ffects to make it look like what i had in mind.

why? thats what i need to know...

let anet worry about something else...like an instant map travel system...


P.S. i can imange... ur in HA...playing monk and WTF i cant see my skills, or party members health! stupid blind bot ><

P.P.S. cracked armor= sides or your screen have crakcs on them :P

P.P.P.S. ./sign for map travel system :P

novelty at first, annoying eventually. even if we had the option to turn it off, [almost] everyone would go that route anyways, thus making an update pointless.

I had this idea recently and posted today (I searched but didn't see your forum, sorry).

I think it would be really cool and immerse you in the game more

Although, i'll admit i would turn it off after awhile...

I like the idea it, I think it would be pretty sweet in pve but in pvp there would be alot of complaints and it just wouldn't work. it would wake u up after a couple of hours of doa and keep u on ur toes also it would absorb u into the game more.

Also deep wound could be a big gash down the middle of the screen cracked armor could look like a broken mirror and everything reflects wiredly, weakness the screen squishes slowly, and ... cripple no idea


but stacking conditions would have an interesting effect so you would have to have a priority thing as in poision would overcome bleeding and disease overcomes poision. Deep wound owns all. kind of like when ur healthbar turns pink from bleeding and then green from poision even though u stilla re bleeding

i'm not necessarily for this idea but why, for the love of the god that you humans seem to believe in, do people keep bringing up the negative effects it would have in pvp?
when you go into pvp, disable the effects. if you don't, you're gimping yourself and you deserve to be griefed by the lol-blind-everybody teams - assuming that people continue forming these teams when they realize everyone and their mother disables the effects in pvp.
at least come up with valid reasons for why this is a bad suggestion - like that you'd rather have anet work on something useful than a maybe-cool but definitely-annoying feature that people would disable when playing competitively anyway?

edit: btw, posting on chrome. i love the ability to resize text fields (among other things but i just used that feature). can't wait til google releases 1.0
