Schnuschnu.9857 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Greetings, as the title suggests I wonder if there would be the possibility to include an option to choose your background music. My problem with this is I own both expansions and it only plays the background music of the latest owned expansion but I liked the BG music of HoT (loved the trumpets) much more. So despite me owning both expansions I don't get to choose which Music I want to hear in the character selection screen. An option for all Character Selection Screen music pieces (wintersday, halloween, dragon bash just to name a few) the account should have access to (tracking of this could be done by achivements unlocked) would be the most optimum imo (and maybe the most challenging - do even all the pieces of past BG music still exist?). I really miss the dragon bash BG music and it's sad that it's kind of lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jura.2170 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I would love to see this too. Can you please let us choose our character selection background screen and music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArenaNet Staff Gaile Gray.6029 Posted November 27, 2018 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted November 27, 2018 I'm going to answer with a... well, let's call it a historical perspective. We have seen the question about customizing one's loading screen over the years, and what I learned when I asked about it was that each generation of the loading screen has certain technological improvements. Therefore, releasing older screens would require some work on the back-end / code / software to make them fully functional with the current state of the programming. This predicated the decision to look more at making forward-looking improvements, rather than revamping older content. And that meant that an option for swapping loading screen visuals was not in the cards. The above was all, of course, from a visual or functional perspective, not from the viewpoint of music options. I'll leave answers about the musical side of the equation to the Audio Team. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaralyna.3104 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 It could be nice to have a selectable button in char select screen where you can choose the music to be played on said char select screen (gw2 core / hot / pof), visuals and all could remain as is as I think most just have a preference on the audio played (1 likes pof more than other and vice versa).

Jura.2170 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Would it just take a really long time to change, or is it really impossible? We don't mind waiting. The WvW commander tag took more than a year to change from a blue button to lots of choices for how it looked and worked, and everyone was happy with it. And we've been waiting for Super Adventure Box World 3 for years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
