I mean sure, having a mini zoo and unlockable pets for pvp will be cool and i'm sure the update won't disappoint on thursday, however I would much rather they went back and fixed alot of the clipping issues with many armour sets, including shields, hair etc. clipping with it, especially things like hair.

As a side note I'd also like it if they did this fo common armour, the gloves affecting more of the arm (except chaos), and make it so that bandanna's show hair, i'm sorry but at the moment my ele looks like a cancer patient...

Thoughts?

Because they have to hire artists to do that, and then the changes have to be tested.

To be honest, I'd love to see a small texture fix for the female nec obsidian, which I could do myself, but they won't let me do it for them, and I don't expect them to pay an artist to fix it any time soon.

clipping is near the bottom of the priority list of potential updates

They are too busy with the skill update for April to work on clipping issues for armor.

I think they should fix the extremely obvious ones but otherwise I could currently care less.

I know it would require resources and such, but in basically every other game graphics issues are fixed upon knowing them...things like no hair for the bandanna and hair clipping throguh stuff pisses me off so much I don't use the armour. it just seems like a standard thing to fix, just like exploits.

would much rather that time and effort be put to something more important such as skill balancing and nerfing something like perma shadow form. bring skill back to gw maybe?

In all truthfulness, Guild Wars has had graphical clipping since forever. When Nightfall was brand-new, I created a necromancer PvP character within a week after I got it. I noticed right away that some armor would clip right into her hair.

I mean, how many armor options do you get with default PvP characters, and Nightfall has the fewest hairstyle choices, but I was easily able to create a character with blatantly obvious clipping.

The point is, they are never going to fix stuff like this. Even if they did, people would then complain that they wasted their time and they should have fixed (x) problem instead.

Agreed. If a.net updated this, then people would QQ about something else a.net should have been working on instead.

A-net has no time for your real problems when there is Bobblehead Gwen costumes, french animal gardens,and the final destruction of zaishen keys value to be made.

You should train to be a ninja, and sneak your idea onto the dart board they have monkeys throw darts at for new ideas.

Honestly I dont expect much so I am never let down, this game has improved vastly over the years but never as much as anyone would like. I think this ideal is based on pay to play mmo's where they give you some new item or zone every 2 months as a last ditch effort to keep you paying. Anet don't care if you come or go they got your money.

Mike O'Brien doesn't need your 13.99 a month the Ferrari is paid for thank you, but the color is a bit last year... Development crew make me storage panes!

I wish they would (my Asuran shields clip everything), but it'll never happen.

They don't give a rat's ass. So.....yea.

Yeah, I made a Necro last night and I equipped one of the bonus items from the collector's edition (Insightful Soul Shrieker) and it clips right through my guild cape. :| Although I'm not too worried about that kind of clipping, stuff such as Glasses and such that costs a bit of money is a different story.

Because almost every game has clipping issues.

If you can find a way to completely get rid of this problem, you'd be a millionaire.

yes but armor shouldn't have cliping issues. i am still waiting for the fix to my eotn armor sets that removes the little red bloches on it.
