yeah, I know about GW1 synchronized emotes. What I meant was, animations that are meant to be done by 2 players involving physical contact, like handshakes, that lock both players in position to perform the emote.

maybe push it up a notch, and make a whole synchronized dance animation where the 2 players are actually holding each other by the hands and waist dancing waltz or tango or something :P

What about a command like /emote * playername? The two players who want to syncronise type the name of the other player, and the game automatically brings them together (so long as they were standing close to begin with) to perform the emote? If more than one person types the name of a single player, the emote fails.

/cry would be nice.

I take this back. I just saw /cry in a demo video. :)

[Aethgar]

A walk/run toggle key instead of one you have to hold down?

Collapse (e.g. fall to knees one hand on floor and the other on throat)

With the "hand on throat" it sounds more like choking. Which would be a nice emote on it's own. "Collapse" should be just falling to one's knees.

A wide variety of emotes is one thing that EverQuest 2 does have. Although, admittedly, many of the animations for them are pretty silly. I'll just copy a list here, feel free to pick and chose which ones you'd like in GW2.

RP Emote Requests:

Essential RP Emotes

• "/me" self-narration emote

*snip*

There already is a /me "emote". I found out when I was trying some emotes.
/emote blahblahblah = [Character Name] blahblahblah
So, a better example = /emote ate the cookie. --> Someone ate the cookie. (If "Someone" would be your name.)

[whrr]

The ability for classes to wield weapons they are normally unable to with visual non combat skills.

[Stormz]

May already have been posted but what happen to /scare, /moan, /sigh like in GW1?Those where fun

[Konig Des Todes]

@above: /scare and /taunt seemed to have gotten replaced by /threaten

Since this got bumped anyways... I noticed a lot of GW1 emotes have no response - not even one of those "not a command" error messages. Would like to see them back. Oh, and /stand because there's no way to smoothly stand up atm. >.>

[Nancha del urun]

I'd be happy if they just added /guitar, /violin, /drums
Or add the 'classic' dances. I want my headbanging Necro and Breakdancing Ranger!

[iNHALE]

Sorry if any of these have been voiced already, havent read all the posts very thoroughly. I'll list some emotes that I personally would find very usefull for roleplaying.

/sleep (character lies down and falls alseep)
/eat /drink (character begins to eat/drink)
/dead (character falls to the ground as if dead or knocked out)
/tinker (character takes out a weapon and begins to clean/sharpen/mend it)
/lean_left (character leans with his shoulder against something to his left)
/lean_right (same as above but to the right)
/lean_back (character leans with his back against something)
/sit (character sits down)
/sit_edge (character sits down with his feet hanging down, performed while standing on the edge of for example a cliff or a big rock)
/lounge (character partially lies down, but not flat on the ground as when sleeping, maybe supported by an elbow or similar)
/laugh (character laughs)
/dance (character begins to dance)
/hug (character hugs the target)
/shakehand (character shakes hand with the target)
/bow (character bows)
/kneel (character kneels)
/salute (character salutes)
/wave (character waves)
/rage (character performs an animation as if yelling, being angry, stomping his foot in the ground)
/taunt (character taunts the target as if to say "come at me bro" or "you want a piece of me?")
/rude (character makes a rude gesture)
/flirt (character flirts with the target)

Probably have some more but can't think of the atm.
