My Christmas List
« on: December 07, 2006, 12:45:48 am »
Before we begin, i have searched the forms on these topics, so no one can say this has already been said

Dear Moderators,

My View Of PlaneShift:

To me, plane shift has a wicked future, this is a gaming dream here, although there could be 3 new addons to make this game the best it can be!

1) Mouse Walk backwards:
I don't know if anyone of you found it, but you can use the mouse to run. the only problem is you can't use it to move backwards or to your side (It would be nice if it's pointed backwards, your character will literally turn around and run that way)

2) Walk to target
This is something you find in most MMOs and is 100% nessecary. when you double click on a target, instead of saying "You are to far away to attack." actually let your guy run up and start attacking (make it so you have to double click so you can't go "Next NPC" then "Start Attk" to find the nearest enemy)

3) Display dammage:
This is mostly optional, but it increases the games look. Instead of using system to see your dammage, also include your dammage above an enemy's head for everyone to see how pro you are.

Remember moderators, this is OPTIONAL, it would be nice but you can completly ignore these requests if you want.

PS. i am sorry some other topics with messed titles discused this. im just trying to help, not to get on the GMs bad side lol

Good job searching :)

This sounds too much like a PvP game feature. Honestly, no one cares how "pro" you are. If you can tackle an Ulbernaut without dying, you're rather good already. If you can hit for 200 instead of 100, it's not a big deal. No one needs to know how hard you smack your opponents - the numbers don't help to immerse you into the world anyway, and there's no way an on-looker would know how badly you're beating your enemy aside visuals.

About the walk-to-target idea: Yes please! :]
Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

1) yup, that should that way, and when we will have animation for proper steps when character is turning around, this will lok better instead of this what we have now.

2) That is something noone ever proposed here i think and it is indeed great feature. I will add only that while double clicing may be set to attack, I say that the requested action should be activated on activating the attack, which is not only by double clicking, but pressing a key, clicking a shortcut or typing a command and executing it.

3) most likely not going to happen.
