I find it amusing actually. I would be a bit disappointed if it were suddenly gone.

Well it's not like it bothers me when it's a /resign. Why would it? She's a fake character in a game. Besides, some of the death screams are great.

It is kind of funny though.

"Let's go back our heroes have no weapons."

"Fine, all die then."

It doesn't make a lot of sense.

It's so dang hard to get people to resign I think, in part, because they don't want to see their characters "die."

When you resign, you abandon whatever you are doing.

Does it really matter? Death animation or not, you're still resigning. Resigning doesn't count as a death, so it doesn't really matter.

Why? For the lulz. I like seeing the party drop dead.

it kind of ruins the feeling of failure that anet was probably trying to achieve.

(anyways, does this count towards survivor?)

I like how the Minions will go after the Spirits after that. Kinda funny, but for the longest time, I thought it added to /deaths

negative.


and also, i could care less about this. i say keep the death scene. you are RESIGNING. so, in technical terms, you failed to do whatever it is you were doing (according to the game). as other people stated above me, the deaths shouts are rather funny to hear.

my personal fav is hearing a male warrior type voice go "UUUHHHG".

Eh... I could go either way but I guess /notsigned because I find the spontaneous mass suicide of a party kinda funny...

signed, this mass suicie is just senseless, and when you've seen it a 1000+ times, its absoutely not funny anymore, it is just extreme annoying...

when all /resign, the game should just automatically instantly warp all to the last outpost the group started from, without that anyone has to click a god damn button first to prevent dumb problems with AFK Group Leaders

I'm sorry but I believe their are other, more important, matters that the programmers need to work on.

Not everyone takes the game as seriously as you, believe it or not.

I personally couldn't care either way, but I think it would be cool to see like, the whole team raise their hands up surrender-style and maybe a white flag appears at your location instead of just... dying. I think they were just too lazy and didn't want to code any new animations.

That is the funniest thing I've read on this forum. How good would that be? I'll vote for that one.

I'm also guessing that ANet would have to change a few mechanics to get the return party to outpost menu to show without your characters being dead. Just like in FoW or UW, when an eternal/reaper dies, the whole party dies (but does not count as a death) so the return party to outpost menu shows up.

I'd replace it with a 'teleport away' animation like the Vizier Khilbrom uses, but it's not really important.

I don't really mind the death animation. What I do mind is when I'm getting my ass whooped, and I resign, and my character falls down, and I have no way of telling whether I died by being killed, or died through resignation.

If there was a recognizable way of knowing when your party has resigned instead of dying, I would sign this.

it doesn't count for deaths anyway, and if you quit you should have to watch your character keel over in agony.

It doesnt really matter. So for gw1 notsigned, but would be cool in gw2 if theres such opinion as resigning.

I have heard a rumor that when you resign you do not die. I don't believe this rumor and my Survivor will not use it. I will keep mapping as long as the system makes people keep dying.
