    Do you think we can have the sync emote command like in GW2?

    When making videos, even with a countdown timer, I found it rather hard fro me and my friends to sync macros. I wonder if we might ever get something similar to Guild Wars 2 where emotes are synced pretty much perfectly with one another.

    Do you think it might be possible, especially with the regional servers being available? Though I kinda doubt it

    But my ls members and I noticed a bit of a difference depending on location; like for some, 1 dance would be perfectly synced up, while that same dance wouldn't be synced for someone else.

    There is a command that if everyone does roughly within same time (has like a 5 second delay) it syncs all those who did it.

    So if I did command, then you did command 2 second later, then another guy 4 second later, at the 5 second mark we will all dance at the exact same time in sync. Because its just done by a delayed server clock.

    edit sorry its 10 seconds:

    Typing /dance *, as with other commands, will delay the action to the next round 10 seconds, which lets multiple characters synchronize their dancing.
    Be nice for SE to add this to make syncing work better.

    I think that this would be nice. The more tools that are put into players' hands to play with the more creativity can be spawned which means fan-made media such as sharing screencaps, stories, and videos on YouTube. It makes it immersible for players who like to roleplay or just have fun and it is a free engine of creativity and marketing for SE outside even of contests. A little programming up front can go a long way! The proposed "vanity slots" (skins essentially) could really help those who want to mechanically show off their accomplishments as well as for roleplayers who may want/need a look or mechanical benefit to something that looks different. Think about your favorite Minecraft videos (such as the YogsCast) for example. The more that is put in the players' hands, the more fun and sharing can come from it.

    Be pretty neat. Doesn't seem terribly hard to implement.
