Feedback talk:User/Brown Fang Thump/Player Visibility Filtering in UI

If GW2 keeps a similar party search feature as that of GW1, I don't see the need for a graphical search filter. A text-based search can provide much more information (professions, race, level, how many people are in the current party, short description of needs) than a graphical search. Adding your suggestion definitely will not make gameplay worse, but it might impact CPU performance.

I do like the idea of highlighting guild members. Instead of affecting the character models of everyone else, maybe just add a green glow around all guild members. In addition, add a blue glow around all party members and a red glow around all enemies (PvP only). Maybe even, in Structured PvP, party members and enemies show their highlights through terrain (as long as they are within compass range of course). This would be similar to the effects in Left 4 Dead. Of course, this effect is selectable in Options. --Arngrim 06:17, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
