As you know you can right click and do whatever with knights, trade add as friend, etc. Why not implement this with snipes? OwO We can right click them and choose pet, play with em, feed, or even talk with them. The reaction would be they chirp when petted, Fly around you when you play with them, do some thing when fed, not sure what, and when you talk to them they chirp happily in response. Its a bit cosmetic, and prolly will take a bit of programming, but it think it be a cute and lovely thing to happen.
Interact with snipes! =3
Eeeeehn, this'd probably be considered in the same line as pets. I mean, it's basically the same thing, aside from being able to take them down to the Clockworks with you like a lot of people would want. It's not only that, though; if you meant to right click on the AH or a friend and some stupid bird is the way, it could be a little annoying.
I agree with both Guarder and Cyankitsune; that being said, you could have a 'snipe petting area' for messing around with the birds without causing a major obstruction to other players.
That being said, the sheer processing power needed to render these as well make it extremely tough to implement unless you want to have a new map devoted to snipe petting; and in this case I would highly recommend a restriction on the number of players in the map, just like the ATH.
Cool idea! I would love to mess around with snipes!
