Hmmm ok I know I\'m a n00b and using this thread is very dangerous for my first post but I\'ve cruised a bit around the forum before and I ESPECIALLY read through this thread before posting, so I hope it won\'t get deleted/flamed/ignored...
Haven\'t had the chance of playing MB (downloaded it but when I wanted to play it the server was gone).
Other than this, Project: Entropia is my only MMORPG experience so far, so I was wondering about a few interesting things:
1) Player interaction. Given that combat will be a \"click once, then see it happen\" experience, I wonder if there are other player interactions between players possible, like, for instance, waving, doing a thumbs-up, throwing a kiss, stuff like that?
2) I know this is a fantasy MMORPG but, given the fact that it is different from anything previous, is the dev team considering also a \"modern\" range of weapons? I mean, axes, swords and bows are pretty common to a lot of (MMO)RPGs but would you consider developing modern weaponry (something like lightsabers and laser blasters)- or such weapons but with a phantasy-twist to them? Also, besides armor (which won\'t be implemented too soon from what I gather), will there also be shields for protection? And if yes, will in \"party vs mob\" or even \"guild war\" type combat formationing be possible as to make use of combined shielding for better protection, like the \"Turtle formation\"?
3) (forgot to add this one, so it\'s edited) Will there be a mentorship system implemented? Like in Project: Entropia, for helping out newcomers there is a mentorship system, where for helping out a n00b (which becomes a disciple of said mentor), the mentor is rewarded?
