Haleydawn.3764 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Been said a hundred gazillion times I know. Low on the priority list, blah blah. But new emotes would be awesome, as well as an update to /dance (I am tired of seeing the Haka, Party Rock, and Carltons dance on my female norns no less). If something is going to be based on popculture, they need updating more frequently than never! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a flesh wound.3589 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 What I would love to see is the return of Guild Wars 1 dances. Maybe what they could do is sell a dance book that holds all the gw1 dances. When you select one your char is transformed to a standard gw1 char and starts that profession’s dance. Example: if you choose the male Necro dance you are changed to a gw1 male Necro wearing starter armor. This would allow all chars to use the dance as they don’t have to take race into consideration when adding this to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerfangs.5018 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 New emotes would be great we really have a lack of them, I just wish they'd make it so my back items/wings wouldn't disappear when I emote though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However it would mean redesigning each dance to fit this game’s races. Which would mean up to 90 redesigns, (9 gw1 professions x 5 gw2 races x 2 sexes) as we don’t know if the dances could even work with humans in this game without a redesign. This would make it too expensive. Having only one race (human) would bring down the cost to a reasonable level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want a *new* /dance per race in gw2 (Still means 2x5, but A LOT less than your suggestion ;) ). That would be enough for me. Not even as a replacement, maybe under a new command such as /dancespecial or what have you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I critiqued the method. I created this post to update /dance. Whether Anet uses old gw1 dances or not, I'm not bothered. Aslong as it's new, funky and awesome, using the emote command.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I'd love the Guild Wars (One) dances to be enabled in GW2, as well. However it might be accomplished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I did. And I suggested gw1 dances as it’s a frequent request. I was only trying to say that the only way they could be brought over is by a book and a transform. But never mind. You continue with your request. /shrug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mewcifer.5198 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I have always been a little disappointed in the lack of emotes in GW2. The emotes they have are really nicely done (the one's for asura are *adorable*) but there is just so few of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lokh.2695 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I saw a dance vid of gw1 and it was awesome. So man different dances and emotes. Would really apreciate(ANet pls read this as: "I'd pay gems if I can't have it for free") if there were more emotes in the game. There's an item on the gemshop that adds 3 or 4 new dance emotes that you can even share with ppl who don't own the item. The item has been in game for years now and the fact that they never released Vol.2 makes me think that it didn't sell well enough to justify spending more resources on emotes. Anyway, since we have races with different skeletons now(asura and charr mostly, norn to a smaller and maybe ignorable degree) and the community is asking for even more new races with non-human skeletons I doubt we will see the diversity of emotes gw1 had ever.

Jaunty.6018 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Yeah, the GW1 dances were far better. Many were recognizable. Necros aren't the same without the ability to headbang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardid.7203 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I'm all for Anet making Emotes obtainable through gemstore. That would be an amazing way to spend my gems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalli.4506 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Yes for more emotes! More dances, more variations of /sit, /sleep and /laugh. Emotes that interact with other players would be really cool like kiss, hug and flirt. There is so many emotes and poses that could be done! They could be released in packages in gemstore and some could be unlocked by achievements. I would rather spend gems on emotes instead of outfits. Imo emotes are much more fun and more usefull than outfits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeadlyBanana.3841 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I want more insulting emotes such as /spit /punch /kick. Also emotes that would interact with other players (option that could be turned on/off) in settings. Also voiced ones like /joke and /taunt.
