Do you want new Character Selection Screen?

[Infusion.7149]

Depending on dev hours I'd like to see the bottom of the screen show more characters than what it does currently , maybe with a filter by profession, age, level, etc. If a new selection screen is required so be it.

[Astralporing.1957]

Yes, definitely. In fact, i wanted it since they replaced the HoT background with the PoF one. The lighting is just so bad in the current version i cringe every time i see it.

[Fenella.2634]

I'd like an option setting where we can select one of the screens + music.

^ This. But that wasn't the question, was it?

It was,

"do you want something?",

not;

"do you want something at the expense of something else?"

[XYLO.7031]

This has been asked many times before, and I even gave suggestions that I knew they would not do. Path of Fire is done so it doesn't make sense to keep that background when you change the launcher to Iceberg Saga. For a bare minimum low-effort change, they can use the old white background, and it would match.

I wonder if selling character select screens would convince Anet to get on it.

[JTGuevara.9018]

(Votes yes multiple times) YES, GIVE ME THE FIRST ONE! THE CORE ONE!

It's sad that I'd almost consider paying for a proper UI update to the character select screen...

[Kaizer.8261]

I voted "Yes", but tbh, why not let players decide between their favorite Character Select Screen?

 

Like, idk if it's hard to implement such feature, but since the Devs changed it over the years, why not let the players choose which one they liked the most then?

[Tyson.5160]

Definitely yes, and they can throw in the music from the Shadows in the Ice to the character selection as well.

[SoulGuardian.6203]

^^

...or let us pick our own image?

Jpeg or even animated gif?

Don't know if it's possible.

[Gryphon.2875]

I'd love the Bjora Marches loading screen as Character Select.

I'd only accept such an option if we got as detailed login screens as GW1 had later on with that slowly scrolling, epic vista such as [this one](

).

The Eye of the North screen comes to mind. It was stunning.

And would be perfect for the current story, too.

> Yes, because it's been a long time looking at the same background and something new would be nice. Though I'd much rather they added some new sorting options instead of having just the "last played" sorting we've been using forever. Mainly for those of us with tons of characters, but still potentially useful to all.

Pretty much this. Idc how it looks really so gun to my head I would say no, but if they were talking about actual improvements to the character select screen rather than just a cosmetic change, I'd be all for it . . .

 

[Fenom.9457]

It’s not a huge deal to me, but it shouldn’t be that much work for them either so it kinda evens out. They don’t even have to make a specific new track, just take something already newly made for the Icebrood Saga and make a snowy backdrop

[Arkantos.7460]

doesnt improve anything , so no

[Eloc Freidon.5692]

Considering that the character select screen and music really sets a tone for current content, I would want that. I don't feel like we're just entering Elona for the first time anymore.

[maddoctor.2738]

Something chilly and snowy would be appropriate, after all they changed the launcher to reflect the new season so the next step is to also change the select screen.

[Syrus.2174]

Definitely would be happy to be rid of the PoF starting screen. I never really liked it, lookswise but mostly the lighting is a bit weird at times.

An option to switch between the previous ones and a new, frosty one would be the best though, I miss the previous ones.

 

Overall I understand the question differently at first, whether there should be more functionality to the character selection screen, like being able to sort your characters.

To that I would also put forward a massive "YES, PLEASE".

[jediwolf.8724]

I voted yes. I would be nice to have one for each festival.

Even some rotation of different ones.

HR would file this as a soft no then.

[Drizzt.1796]

Meh. I dont really care. If so, ok, if not, who really cares?

[GummyBearSummoner.7941]

i Voted yes but also I would like the option to be able to put your characters in a certain order. I don’t like how they all mix and match all over the place lol
