Button to pick up nearest item that has been dropped
Erace
I hate having to look around to find what is dropped then having to click on it, i think there should be a button that just makes ur character run and pick up the nearest item.
KaPe
Yes, botting for dummies.
Aniewiel
Just use alt. Then the item lights up and makes it easier to find. But, sarcastically said though it was, Kape is right: that would make bot heaven.

Bots are clearly being given the programming to overcome this anyways. I mean, they've been programmed to automatically open chests in random locations so I'd assume that they can pick up loot anyways.
Therefore, the only thing that not having a "pickup all loot" button does is hinder the player.

true, they used to have such a button if I am not mistaken.

Aaaaagh
Right after this gets implemented, I want a button that I can push and a beer is delivered. Then, GW would officially be called 'the laziest game ever.'

Well then, Mesmers should have key to automatically select enemies casting spell, so they can disrupt them. Any half decent monk should be able to know who needs healing

I'd be happy if stacked loot would prioritize the item that I can pick up. I hate getting 'that item is reserved for another player' over and over again because there's a grey item on 'top' of my white, forcing me to aim carefully and pick the right one from the pack. That is the main issue that is slowing down my loot pickup right now, don't think a button to pick things up is needed.
Perhaps in similar nature, I'd love to see corpse selection return. The current 'nearest corpse' autoselect for corpse exploiting skills is too restrictive, makes Putrid Explosion more difficult to target and makes Necrotic Traversal even less useful than it already was.

Same here with the corpse selection. Although if you are facing an enemy and you let of putrid explosion, it takes out the nearest corpse to that enemy which is quite nice.

The 'pick up loot' button has been implemented in Dungeon Siege. It's very useful in my opinion.

If your bot can kill/open whatever produced the item in the first place then picking it up would be LEAST of its worries dont you think?
Although, the drops in teams are like 1 per encounter, so i wouldnt exactly need such a feature in GW [sadly]. But with hench/solo it is a different story.

I want them to add a button for "kill all visible enemies immediately"....then Guild Wars will officially be the easiest game ever designed.
womble
Pets should have a 'fetch' function... :-)
Sir Skullcrasher
button to pick up nearest item, i rather have a button to attack the nearest enemies, cuz im tired of standing there after killing one monster and have to click on the next one (sometime, you have to move your character and click on the monster in order to attack it)
as for item pick-up, its cool, i just pick up eveything that i see with my name on it but that idea seems cool

Storm Singer
Use the tab or c key to select the next or nearest (respectively) target, then press space to attack

I agree...it is annoying to "try" and pick something up at times. Mainly when there is more then one drop. I keep lighting up the "other one" for the other player. Or, I have to hurry because someone didn't wait and there is another fight going on and I have to get over there to help.
Also I get real tired of getting STUCK in between players or thier minons. I hit TAB or Slash/Space then realize I am still standing there. Could use a STUCK bubble or some command to UNSTICK you so you can move again.

Oh dear.. this thread has been hijacked by silly people!
Um.. EQ2 honestly has a /pizza switch = calls in online order to local pizzahut by zipcode.
Sad, or genius?

I think stumpy has hit the nail on the head - it's not a laziness feature - I want to play without the mouse sometimes!
GW has one of the least customisable control setups of any recent game I've seen - I mean, you cant even remap the mouse wheel in the game!
It'd be nice to be able to remap anything to anything (think of a game like Freespace 2 or some FPS's) - I could play GW with a PS2 control pad :P

Wait until the direct neural interfaces are integrated with the GW architecture. Then you can have your limbs removed and really relax.
Sekkira
I'd rather keep my limbs
I'd like to get some cybernetic enhancements though. GitS anyone?

Dungeon Siege also has a spell to create a little dude to get get treasure for you.
Hmm... that could be ... interesting...

Now for a new Button in the game. I need one to make my Lovely Wife smile and bring me refreshing beverages. A Guild Wars Stepford Wife. With a snazzy cool remote control.
Alas...This will not happen in my lifetime. I will still get the wonderful sound: "...YOU Still playing that Damn GAME...??!!"

"/pizza - now sends you to the preorder EQ2 Collectors Edition webpage" . Was it just too sad maybe? Maybe if they add a /beer command...

I just wish the henchmen and/or minions would make themselves useful and pick up gold, since the whole party splits it anyway. Yeah, boo hoo, bots will take advantage - but what is there that bots WON'T take advantage of?
