And us take theirs?

Seems they are shying away from out-of-outpost tricks lately, after all the stick figure rage.

I'm kind of geeked that April Fool's Day is on a Friday. It makes me wonder what that could mean for that weekend, especially since this year, ANet's typical birthday weekend coincides with the Christian Easter holiday when they usually do the chocolate eggs and such.

Kind of has me wondering just what sort of coolness they have in store for us next month!

Random fake messages during combat: Your weapon broke during the fight. Unfortunately it cannot be repaired and is lost permanently. The weapon then becomes invisible for 5 seconds. In reality nothing happens, you still have the weapon equipped and undamaged, and can keep using it and just ignore the message.
Im sure it will make people freak out when their VS or tormented or other valuable wep disappears, but then you will quickly realise that you didnt loose it.

If people map out of an explorable/mission while a combat is still going on, insert the following message into their chat log before they arrive at their new location: "[enemy] drops a [very desirable drop], which your party reserves for [player name]."

Get some people to freak out and tear at their hair.

They could make a list of all suggestions or things that should be done and put it in a "joke 1st april" update to be honest.....
I'm not sure if it was last year or 2 years ago , but the fake patch note they did would have been actually awesome and at least better than whole updates we get until now.....

Knowing their lazyness , they will probably make everyone look like a random character ( maybe heroes from WiK...)

everyone will look like a hero instead of your self (like the costume brawl) but as a twist you will also look the opposite gender ....so female mesmer--nogru! (we do have a small issue since all the eles heroes are male---so you get to look like vekk or zhed instead).....

Good I'd rather have them working on WoC or anything that is not 1 day content.

Due to present difficulties balancing the Dervish class, all players will be turned into Dervishes to ensure a balanced game until the class can be balanced to an acceptable level in an update we plan on releasing later this year.

Everytime you try to log on, ANet gives you this error:



and then when ANet finally lets you in and you think the joke is over every 5-10 minutes you get this:


If I was ANet my roflcopter would be at full throttle with all the QQ a lot of GW players do. It would be the best April Fool's Day ever for them!

Have Dhuum ban-scythe random players for a few seconds.
Unless, its bugged and the ban stays, then not good.

I do like the look like a (random) hero one also.

Or, but not sure they will really do it, make all armor invisable (not show on the player), so that evryone walks around in there undies.

Or, look like a random pet, or your pet.

Dhuum pops out of the ground and deletes every character that has GWAMM. When you create a new character in that slot, it has all your old titles.

I'd like everybody to be named White Wasabi, that way there would have be no bans issued for 1 day.

I don't want to see the skill updates. I hate their arrogance. They know people are aggravated with the balance of the game and the only time they address it is when they taunt the community with the April 1st page. Also who wants to bet they release some kind of "mini-me" tonic or stick man tonic in the cash-shop?

Wasn't Wasabi banned?

Also I would love to see Dhuum just go on a killing spree against random people. But no bans, you can't trust anet with things like a fake ban.
