Add option to turn off our own cape in PVP?
TsunamiZ
How about add an option to turn off our own cape in PVP? So that we can see all of our own character's armor even when playing PVP.
MagmaRed
Because the capes help determin which team someone is on. Notice how the cape changes color?

It's like this for a reason, as MagmaRed pointed out.

The cape is just another way to spot an enemy in pvp..<3

Horray for people with small monitors be even more confused in PvP

Regarding the capes in pvp, none of us as teams are actually using them to identify which side the other player is on so forcing it's display is rather redundant. Plus I don't prefer the super-hero gig messing with my appearance.
Capes are gay. Sorry Anet.

another option instead of cape could be "always show player names in pvp". its another way u can seen what color players are without capes.

It's there for a reason and been like that for 5 years. If you want it out, 10 minutes with texmod and a few more turning the cape graphic into a clear png texture will get you what you want but only you will see it gone.

I've never had trouble figuring someone's team by whether or not their cape was in view. Just the same as I've never had a problem determining profession if they were behind an object and I couldn't see their armour.

There shouldn't be much to program at all really. Pvp unlike explorable areas use only a bit of code which allows all capes to display either red or blue and a switch to keep it on during those matches. If that switch could be done on the same level you turn your own cape's display off it's nothing much for a developer to just take a look at and make an adjustment to. Problem is getting said developer to lift a finger...
MagmaRed
The sad thing is he wants the cape gone because he wants to look at his own characters armor during PvP. I wouldn't want to be on someone's team who spends more time looking at his own character's ass than the enemy/team positions. Truly, there is no need for this. It serves a function for PvP, and even if you don't make use of that function, having the cape there does not hinder your ability to play.

Just use textmod to remove your own cape. That way others still see it but you don't.

There is a reason for costumes, tonics and capes working the way they do when it comes to PvP.
It doesn't mater if you don't understand it, the reason is still there, and they will probably never change.

Id like that coz it looks retarded on some armors (the ones which have a semi cape anywayz), and the others where it clips
