Showing multiple (2 or 3) titles at the same time (example pic)

My idea is quickly entering better teams in PvP (even with higher rank than mine) by showing another titles.

Plus, this could be interesting for PvE titles too, I bet everyone have more than one good title to show.

I think a maximum of 2 or 3 titles is enough, for easy read and not make your nick too big.

Always wanted to put my sweets title with another one... Only problem is like say in GOLEM quest/mission you are in asura territory so asura title affects, while you fight against destroyers, so if you put up your delver and asura title... yeah, small difference, but still kinda overpowered.

This could be easily avoided by allowing only one title effect to be active at once. Other question is if ANet would allocate resources to do such thing.

Same.

More rank discrimination, more newer players not getting a chance, you just want a bigger e-peen in the online community.

I never had problems with my titles. I always wear the titles i like. And I just tell people my rank. If they don't believe me, I just show the other title. I don't think it's alot of work.

It's better then having 2 titles under your name, wich looks SUPER lame.

And I would like to them to fix the more serious things first.

I wouldn't mind seeing something like this, but really, if someone wants to see what other ranks you have in XYZ, just switch titles for them. Very low on the to-do list.

Agreed. E-peen is a stupid reason to ask for a mechanic.

Even worse than the e-peen idea, this would clutter up the screen. If it was shown like you did in the example pic (which is the only way I can forsee it being done) and you were scanning a GROUP of people in a city, the names would fill the screen even faster than they do now, and I often see so many people in cities I want to click the storage box that I have to run next to it before I can target it due to all the names in the way. Would be a headache as well as an e-peen contest.

This is the most useless suggestion I've seen in a while.

The only reason for this is e-peen.

This would cause unnecessary annoyances by crowding the screen.

Two is a weird number for something like this.

Switching titles is too simple and fast for anyone to consider it an actual inconvenience.

This could cause abuse in some areas.

Anet could prevent that abuse, but it isn't worth their time or effort.

I don't like clutter. Rather than multiple titles displayed under your character, I'd prefer alternating the titles at a fixed interval, say 2-3 seconds. Allow the user to select the titles to alternate, and it essentially automates the manual display that is possible now.

People who want to see your titles can ask you to display them, so I don't see this as a high priority.

Irritating enough as it is that your title's effect's don't auto-apply, this is just screen clutter, epeen waggle and a touch of laziness.

if they did anything id want to do this. 2~3 more titles for EA person jsut seems a bad idea.

I can see the logic in this particular perspective. Especially given that you find destroyers in more EoTN areas than just Deldrimor. Dunno if that alone is worth making the changes for, but it'd certainly remove that one particular bit of title juggling..Perhaps it'd be viable if the epeen factor were removed by default to title-1 in towns and outposts, as you can't see them in explorables anyway.

I'd probably sign for that.

There are plenty clear reasons of signing this, just showing more tittles.

The not signing "reasons" make no sense at all. They are just repeating exactly the same complains about the titles existence; it's just anti-title people invading my thread. I suggest you (not signing people) to make your own suggestion thread about removing the titles completely; so I can go and not sign without explain a thing.

Yes anet obviously needs to make pve easier by letting 2 titles such as asuran/delver be active at the same time and give you both affects. Im sure pve isnt already easy enough without environmental bonus'es too? Isnt that why DoA has environmental hinders? To make an already simple Pve actually somewhat of a challenge?

Well, if you carefully read my post, you can easily spot there are no suggestion about added bonus or whatever thing you are saying, that's just added speculation, so more people can make more no sense not signs.

If you carefully read other peoples posts you would realise that you could display numerous titles at once and get all their bonuses. They aren't making them up just so they can /notsign your thread.

Anyway, /notsigned, because:

Seriously dude..You seem as annoying as Easy was..DoA area effects are not extra difficulty, they're extra annoyance. Likewise, popping up a title menu and swapping before a mob isn't difficult, just annoying..Though I suppose you're right, expecting GW free of annoying things is a bit silly isn't it?

That's only one reason.

Quote:

Allow me to explain...

"The only reason for this is e-peen"
This means that this suggestion has no practical use and would only exist to make showing off twice as efficient.

"This would cause unnecessary annoyances by crowding the screen"
This means that I don't want to be forced to sift through even bigger walls of text everytime I try to find the storage chest in Kamadan.

"Two is a weird number for something like this"
It just is. Seriously, two titles? Why TWO titles? It's an awkward number. One title makes sense. And, if you're going to have more than one, you might as well just go for three instead of half-assing it. But three would be even worse than two, so let's just keep it at one.

"Switching titles is too simple and fast for anyone to consider it an actual inconvenience"
It takes about three seconds, two presses of the H key and a click. If you're unlucky, you might have to drag that little bar on the side.

"This could cause abuse in some areas"
Whoever brought this up explained it already. In case you forgot, his or her example was something about fighting Destroyers in Asuran areas.

"Anet could prevent that abuse, but it isn't worth their time or effort"
They're short on manpower already. And implementing something unnecessary isn't really worth it, especially when it creates another problem, has disadvantages, and doesn't really have any benefits.

Quote:

Only the first reason could be misinterpreted like that. And most people aren't complaining about titles, they're saying that the title system is fine as it is.

See above. Also, unless you restrict yourselves to only two areas and you never show any titles without effects, you would still have to do this.

Yeah see. Even with my twist, it's still of negligible enough use or benefit to bother with, I can see that yeah, the asura title benefit and destroyer-hatin' deldrimor titles stacking is just a bit too much overkill, verging on exploit..

pointless even tho some titles do matter to an extent in some formats of the game

showing off even though your still bad in the end will get you no where, from pvp perspective

Those "titles" are part of the reason PvP is dying a slow painful death.
