I didn't realize they removed the old system entirely thats incredibly gay and unnecessary, I assumed they would be not retarded and just have fashion plates be additional things you could turn on or off and wear over the glamour your equipment was already set to.

Image agrees with me. It's an ethnic slur, but it's not racism. Racism is systematic mistreatment of people based on their race. e.g. if I didn't hire you for a job because you're black, that's racism. No one takes you seriously because you consistently apply terms you don't understand to everything that hurts your feelings.

Either way whoever designed and okayed it needs to be fired. They had like a year to cook while delivering half-baked expansions and this is the result. Whatever they're doing now clearly isn't working out.

I don't know why they wouldn't test this shit with regular armor and on accounts with limited transmutation charges so they can see if something is also costing charges when it shouldn't, the community realized this would happen just by watching the livestream

They don't need to reverse it entirely, they just need to put the old Wardrobe and Dye options back into the Equipment panel. It wouldn't matter that the actual fashion templates suck shit if they hadn't completely removed the old options.

I can only see two possible reasons for them destroying the old functions; narcissism or anti consumer practice

or
>Management demands more monetisation, how do we force people to buy this new gemstore product? Introduce as much friction and pain as possible and sell them the product to ease the friction (fashion template tabs)

I think the more likely third reason is just incompetence, mainly on the part of whichever project manager did the scheduling and work assignments. The entire patch is full of obvious shit where things got overlooked, like nobody even bothered to see what happens when you try to join a Convergence, and they put in the marketing materials that all Quickplay strikes are available even without owning the expansions but then they didn't bother to test whether that actually works, etc.
Removing the options from the Equipment menu was probably someone going
>We shouldn't have two separate menus where you can transmog gear, that's confusing!
But then nobody bothered to actually try using it, just like nobody bothered to try changing dyes on gear without full Legendary.
This isn't even "bad QA" like it usually is with ANet. This is all the kind of shit that usually gets caught before it even goes to QA because all you have to do is spend five minutes actually using it before it's obvious.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>556254072
That's not the part that bricks your looks. If you don't save your current looks and start fucking around with it your dyes and shit are gonna get defaulted and if you have fashion saved in build templates they're all gonna get overwritten to what you saved in the new fashion template. The games aggressive as fuck about applying a blanket look based on a fashion template so say you changed armors and decided you wanted to change a weapon skin? If you're not paying attention and keeping a template blank for that you'll overwrite everything to whatever was stored in the fashion template wasting charges and fucking up a whole armor set you had. Some people can't even take off their outfits right now. It's half-baked broken garbage. You should avoid it as much as possible and just change equips from the inventory.

i ain't readin' no 30 pages of drama in the gw2 forums--so i'm not. however, i'd be happy to read a dev post expressing deep apologies to the vets and give us 4k free gems for not knowing how to navigate the new fucky system.
>>

>>556258606
They destroyed the old wardrobe and dye panels and replaced them with a more convoluted one
I'm seeing this "uhh actually you can still do the same stuff as before" autism constantly, completely missing the point, to get the same results now you have to work around the shitty UI to get the same results as before, they introduced lots of pain and friction to do the same shit whereas before there was none. The new fashion templates should've been a simple feature to save a transmog set, keeping the perfectly fine systems before intact, we had the best transmog and dye system in the market and they fucked it up for no reason.
Especially considering the feature is half baked as it is, over engineered to be worse than before, it honestly smells of vibe coding to me
>t. developer who understands how vibe coding works since I use LLMs in my work
>>
>>
>>556258606
>>556262636
My bad I just re-read what you posted, that's hilarious, so there's nothing actually stopping them from re-enabling the old system, and if they don't it really is just narcissism or aggressive anti consumer shit
>>
>>556262739
>im a dev, dude trust me
you're brown
I've been developing since before AI even existed, you recoiling just tells me you're nocode burger flipping or something, there's a difference between using llm tools and vibe coding, and this fashion update smells like vibe coding
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>556236776
considering both mucuck and trannity were given previews of the fashion templates and neither commented on the obviously shit UI and bugs everywhere, I'm starting to believe what roze said about ANet threatening legal action on all partners who don't fall in line
heck, smegma gaming made a video last week about how the tutorials could be better and, before he even made his point, he'd said four or five times that he loves the game and that shouldn't be taken as criticism, plus another couple of times more throughout the video

I think they really thought fashion templates would be popular. I don't doubt some people have bought them already, but the overall reaction is negative because of how much a blatant cash grab this is
>>
>>556282171
>then someone pointed out that some new skins/outfit are the same on any weight
It's not a lie, those same looking skins are in fact three different models/textures due to incompatibility between light/heavy and medium armor. It's obvious when you compare the pants of armor with butt capes like Extremis, it's attached to the chest piece on medium, but pants on light/heavy. Armor sets that don't have that difference either don't have butt capes or overwrite other slots.
If you've played at launch you'd also know that mixing doesn't work, you were able to preview different weights together and it'd completely break your character model.
>>
>>
>>556284053
the skeleton of the model may be different but the model and the texture is the same
pick one armor piece that is the same on all 3 the weights ex. the metal legion shirt, it looks exactly the same, what it means?
they made the new model and texture then linked it to its weight skeleton (or whatever they did)
they can do it with all the amors but they wont because it require time

Kek, nah that's not a transformer, just an aging woman dressing like a schoolgirl to desperately cling to the last vestiges of her youth, you just know she'd ride you like a stallion, maybe shed a little post orgasm tear after desperately trying to please you to prove that she's still wild and fun and you should definitely put a baby in her near expiration date ovaries, and that's hot

You should experience what playing support is like in spvp when you're holding a point perfectly and keeping everyone alive then suddenly they all decide to abandon it to run in 4 different directions and get picked off one by one for no reason at all

It's one of my preferred support specs, it has a lot of utility because of the tomes and great access to stability (the best boon). Compared to WoW and FF14 it is more lax since you don't have as much of a button bloat problem. I personally like it for group instanced content like fractals and raids/strikes

Surprise surprise better especs are here now and firebrand is shit

Guardian is a joke of a vlass sith shitty traiylines made 10 years ago and never changed but mouthbreathers will insist that guardian is anets golden child because it gets a boon that blocks one attack and its most functional elite spec beat them in wvw one time

They'd be burning so much more player goodwill if their playerbase wasnt too stupid to remember their promises/hold them accountable.
Everything bad in this update is partially on the players

Most MMO players are a half-step above gacha players as far as mindless consooming goes. They'll forget this in 2 weeks and go back to swiping for the next shiny glowing particle slop black lion skin they shit out.
Voting with your wallet doesn't work in a game like this when there's a bunch of whales that treat it like their virtual 2nd life rather than a product with quality expectations.

Not a real thing, just pissy "I want revenge on them" wishful thinking, like all the chuds trying to boycott bud light.
The reality is the studio treats you like cattle because you are cattle and you agree to be cattle every time you click the Play button.

Not that anon but aktually by logging in and not swiping my card, I'm actively a drain on their bandwidth and server space, even if it just costs them pennies.
However more notably, I also often engage in anti-community behaviors which actively discourages other players, and over time can cause a few card-swiping people to leave the game. For example, getting carried through raids after lying about my experience, taking things out of guild banks that I just joined, never reviving other players, and more.

I think you are 90% correct. Most MMO players are shit eaters and piss drinkers, but there will always be some percentage that have had enough, and the more fuckups occur, the larger that percentage will be. You are right that it won't immediately hurt the bottom line of the studio, for a while at least, but if the attrition rate is higher than the rate of new players, it will eventually have an effect.

Actually no you're not, you're boosting the presence of the game just by existing in it. The worst thing that can happen to a game is not having players logged in, by logging in you're being the best cattle you can be.
>>
>>
>>556334716
If a game has 1 million players logged in but none of them ever do anything or buy anything, that's called a fake botted player count and the game will collapse. It's happened with Battlefield and many other games before.
And that's not even counting all the actively negative actions I take in game, which you conveniently skipped over.
What a dimwitted take lmfao
>>
>>
>>556335269
That's because the player count is *not* artificially inflated right now, my 90 IQ illiterate friend. And nobody mentioned anything about bud light.
Tell me, how would you feel if you had not eaten breakfast this morning?

>all this impotent chud rage because he's cattle and always will be cattle
I like how you can't even argue in defense of your listless cattle mentality, you can only escape to le breakfast memes. You do realize this just advertises you're an incompetent child who's lost the plot when you try to use it on a real person, right?
