QQ to follow:
Either remove fireworks from outposts or give us an option to not see or hear them.
I swear, they're going on constantly 24/7 now. Do people buy fireworks and make their purpose in life to constantly use them over and over so a town is always annoying as humanly possible?
It's worse than yeti sounds. At least with yeti sounds you could mute your sounds. Now, not only is there a constant sound to deal with, but fireworks all over your screen without relent... Talk about annoying. The fireworks crap is the #1 thing I hated about beating the latter of the games, I made a point of leaving the reward areas as fast as humanly possible because of it. And now... Now I have to see it everywhere I go, constantly! The only place I'm safe from it is in an explorable...
And yes, this is a QQ if I've ever posted one. I'm whining and complaining.
Enough with the fireworks already!

Did you even read the first sentence?
And, obviously some of us don't like them. It's very alienating, personally. They just keep adding more and more and more annoying stuff. Enough's enough already...
The least they could do is give those of us that don't want to see this crap an option in our Options menu to disable this crap. So then, everyone that likes all the annoying crap in towns can happily spam the hell out of it, and those of us that it drives badshit crazy can be blissfully unaware it's going on.
Oh yes, I get paid commission for each complaint thread I make! /sarcasm
It ever occur to you that maybe I'm genuinely not happy with certain things and would like them to change?

Have you yet to play other mmos? Because I assure you, in other mmos, there's WAY more toys to piss off other players for the lulz.
No need to QQ about something so small in GW. That is, unless you hate bees
Of course, I'm positive anet would keep it out of pure laziness and lulz.

They don't have to implement an option like that for for the small amount of people that don't like it.

I like the tonics and the fireworks as they make the outposts more lively. I don't expect a busy town to look like a library.
Empress Amarox
Yeah, and I don't expect it to look like the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve in Madison Square Garden either.

The land of Tyria is at some hard times. The citizens do what they can to keep morale up.

At first, they were fun. Then, they got a little annoying. Now that a fireworks display in any given outpost is the norm, I hardly notice 'em.

I am really going to have to agree with the OP. Yeti sounds and fireworks can be very annoying. I really feel that they ruined towns and outposts with the stupid tonics and the annoying noises. I guess it's not too bad but the fireworks can be especially annoying. I guess in time the fascination will fade and things will be normal again.

peoples need to gain 7 party points off a fireworks show wont fade

fire works? What fireworks?

I can see how they might be annoying, but jeeze. Whats wrong with people having a little fun? If you don't like the sounds, mute them. If you don't like the colors and entertaining sparklies, why are you hanging around in the major towns in the first place? I'd suggest checking your gamma setting, or something, to see if they are abnormally bright for you compared to others. When I'm not being entertained by them, they're pretty easy for me to tune out.

I don't hate the fireworks, but I do agree they have lost their charm now that they're so common.
lewis91
Theyre starting to annoy me too. I just spend less time in the outposts.
Edge Igneas
Did it ever occur to you that the fireworks might be there specifically to get you out of the outposts? I mean, as if we didn't have enough people dancing at outposts half naked, just standing there not playing the actual game itself.
So either join the half-nekkid festivities or just leave the outpost
*GOSH*
Or perhaps your eyes burn, if thats the case then I suggest you go to your local Ocularist

I notice them for about 2 seconds when I first enter the outpost then barely notice they going off.
If you don't like them...leave....go to different district...go to a PVP town

Wow, so because you guys dont have a problem with it, the solution is to get over it?
I don't care either, but if it obviously impacts on someones enjoyment of the game then yeah, you shouldn't be subjected to it.

I have an idea, fireworks shoot out of the NPC's heads right? Why not just shoot them out of the players head for 5 minutes and not the NPC's. That way the player is happy and people who don't want to see the blasted things can just avoid the player entirely. It's a win for everyone!

I have to say I agree with Empress, I remember when owning a town and setting of fireworks was cool, or when they would go off at the end of an event. But fireworks are so common now it's just annoying. I'm not saying it's a big deal, but it's plain obnoxious.

If it really is as common as pretty much every time you pop into an outpost, then definately /signed. Fireworks are supposed to mean something.

Personally, I haven't talked to anyone in-game as of yet that actually enjoys the constant fireworks (of course, that isn't exactly all encompassing). Fireworks are fine when it's like Wintersday or Canthan New Year, but every single day constantly is just messed up and we shouldn't have to just "deal with it."
