invasions

[cwazierussian]

being bored and reading threads i thought of an idea and im sorry if this has been discussed before but i would like to see random monster invasions maybe a rat invasion from the sewers or a......rogue raid from the forest something like that to keep the game interesting and not as repetative and if the lower players cant handle it they can run and hide behind bigger ones but ps being set in a dangerous location i dont think its very realistic to have such perfectly safe places especially since some of your life story stuff talks about an invasion

That is really funny actually... that this ends up in the wishlist... not ironic but humorful... because of one Mr. Drey... this idea has been spread and thought of... but of course we would not use his instance of it... but yes i would like to see this... and i was going to post something about it in his Dectruction thread but it was too old and i didnt want to get yelled at for reviving old threads... anywho i think the link is in his sig...

i thought something similar. though mostly because i have a bit of an evil streak in me.

but i would prefer a rat invasion. perhaps of those vigorous one-eyed rats that i heard of so long ago. anything more than that and the beginners would rendered to spam.

Dynamic spawn and a AI-like for monsters is not a new idea...
One thread about, just following the five stars threads.

If someone want to make a summary of related ideas, do it. It will really help. (He could then submit it to me   )

Ha.  I see it now -- The \"Defend Harniquist\" quest.

that would be a pretty good idea.. except maybe an escort the queen or protect the king etc.

[Karyuu]

Eh... there is no queen or king :P And it will be a while before any story involving the Octarchs and their government will be feasible...

[cwazierussian]

i dont think it should be much of a quest as much as a random thing. something like walking around and you just see 20 rats running out of the sewers followed by a dozen gobbles and 5 or so tefusangs and see how everyone reacts and if anything just jump on a roof and hope they dont find you =]

[darkw00t]

i know there isn\'t a king or queen those were just examples

and just wait until bows are implemented... then we could set up ambushes to the oncoming rampages of monsters.

EDITATIONINGNESS!!! I have found the thread that i was talking about... the simple clicking of dreys sig helps a lot but anywho...

read it all it is funny

I think ever week their should be some kind of invasion just to keep people playing (the boredom is to much to take)

[Karyuu]

Boredom..? No idea what you\'re talking about ;) But a weekly invasion will kind of lose its most important elements, don\'t you think? Surprise and anticipation? People keep playing whether there are invasions or not - there are plenty of other things to do, plenty of adventures to experience, as is. They just take some organization (even if they are to be spontaneous) and will.

[yayoo]

Ok what if there could be a invasion at any time imagine all of a sudden the consumers come down and attack people that would be fun right?

[Karyuu]

No arguments there. But such things can\'t be too common, or they will lose their novelty.

Finally we agreed on something besides how cool my island is in DR by the way I also found a offering room :]
