Please don't "cutify" DDO...

[Momsboys]

Lastly, after doing more research, it SEEMS as if the bug in which if someone has bad lag, the entire group has bad lag is back. I have gathered multiple accounts of people claiming to suddenly be lag free when person X disconnected, or always having lag when person Y was in the group, with both X and Y being known for disconnects/poor connections.

I don't have the posts pointing out to the previous fix/previous time this was fixed, but this issue DID exist at one point, and it's entirely possible it's back in some form or another.

I now understand why when my friend logs out i stop lagging! Grr this NEEDS to be fixed asap

Other people will get pets that can look cute if they're low level from a certain angle, so I'm quitting forever.

This is officially the single most ridiculous thread I have read on the DDO forums. Think about the magnitude of that statement.

Can I get a button that turns off all the other players not in my party? they don't add anything to my game except lag.

Something I've wanted since I started playing.

[MrkGrismer]

Guilty...

And sadly true. I would buy a Beholder or Kobold plushie.

Excuse me Maj, can I get a Hello Kitty Pet, with matching armor kit and cosmetic hat, just to annoy the daylights out of the people that hate cute?

I want a beholder, not a bluholder.

Get some fabric dyes...

Ask and you shall receive, a bee-holder.

I was wondering how many posts it would take before a bad pun was coming. Only 2.

Cheesy puns are my forte sir. Bluholder? Come on, it deserved it tbh. And you're very welcome.

Oh, I know it did. I'm not about to argue that.

[ViolentEnd]

In addition to the other emotes already suggested, like /show pets off, etc.
I would suggest two others
/kick pet
and
/getoffmylawn

thank you for the consideration

Pets are armor kits for empty space. You see armor kits, and you can bet you will see the pets. It would be nice if they had levels/char sheet like artificer dogs so you can have them age/change as you go up in level and/or turn this metamorphosis off and keep them at a certain stage. Stage of growth would be on a slider and you could not exceed that which you have not achieved yet (this would not apply to TR's who could access the full bar, and maybe get more options for appearance based on how many times they have TR'd).

I'm concerned about lag and the appearance that the game is empty due to instance population being halved. I already have this feeling as I'm walking through an empty marketplace that the population of Thelanis is low and it's hard to shake that off even though I know there may be 10 instances of the marketplace.

[MrkGrismer]

It just occurred to me that having some 'swarms' as pets would be awesomesauce.

Locust, beetle, spider, squirrel...

Should I be worried that, when I showed the pic to my wife, she asked if thy made one with vibrating eyestalks?

[Wickednisse]

Ok, so maybe I'll have to endure some neg rep but please...

When I saw the picts for the new pets I was really disturbed and I have to echo the concerns other people have voiced, I mean look at this:

I see this:


Maybe we can even get our pets voiced by John Travolta or Miley Cyrus!

I don't care if it generates revenue, it ruins the D&D atmosphere. What's next? Pink pig tails and mini skirts? When I hear people clamor for baby unicorns I get really distressed... Really? This is what you want? Maybe DDO isn't my game anymore... *sigh*

Oh...my...goodness... I am SO getting one! And to the people that I run with it will be no surprise, I enjoy as much of the game as possible to include all of the cosmetic goodness THAT puppy is abso-freaking-lutely adorable!

[Ungood]

While the Dog, Cat and Spider are cute, I still want my D20 Pet.



I'm simple and easy, and this is what I want as a pet if I am going to Play Dungeons and Dragons

[Gratch]

I'm okay with this pet thing as long as they added the best sidekick ever:

Thank you. I've been trying to figure out a way to comment on this thread without violating every policy Turbine has in place.

I will say that since I don't listen to rancid death metal and wear Slayer shirts while playing DDO, I will be emotionally unaffected by the cutifying of pets. The appearance change will not contradict the whole image I am trying to portray.
