Re: Up to 5 SIMPLE things you would like to see implemented.

[Raa]

1. Normal clothes.
2. Not so ridiculously unique and decorated armor for each race and gender. All armor should be mostly the same, if they're buying from the same person. No more random necklaces and bracelets and jewelry on freakin' armor. It looks girly. Make something generic.
3. I don't want to see females' normal skins looking so slutty. Nor do I want to see Ynnwn/Klyros man-whores. They look like horny barbarians for goodness sake.
4. Ynnwns are supposed to be one of the most beautiful races, right? Well, they're downright ugly. The women look angry all the time, and the men look like old buffed-up geezers. Old geezers, even if buff, do not look attractive in a loincloth. Also, what's with the mole on female Dermorians...? And why do all of them have blonde hair if that should be a rare trait? Oh, and why are Ylian males just so... unattractive (why do they all have beards, too)? That's like dissing your own humanity. Do the developers have an ugly fetish or something?
5. Implement the ability to report people who cheat roleplay (calling their whole guild via GuildChat to fight a single robber, for example).

Some of those can't really be called implements... But they're worth looking at, in my opinion.

I'm sure this has been said a bajillion times before but I'm sleepy and bored.

-clothing! Apparently there is only armor, no clothing to buy and wear.
-change mining platinum -> mining copper or something.
-PvP disabled for 20 minutes after a duel to prevent griefing and ooc calling in friends to ruin good rp
-allow players to set themselves as roleplayers and have the ability to turn off non-roleplayer chat... This way roleplayers can roleplay without being interrupted by "how i mine fish lol"
-talents, flaws, traits...at character creation have players select talents which raise ability in one area and lower it in others...or flaws that lower stats for more CP, or something

hi
i just started to play on PS from 7 or 8 days before the famous event who disappointed all the community ... but my little trip in PS inspire me this :
- the clothes : if we can choose colour it would be great

and for thes moves :
- a dream : can the wings of the klyros be functional   
- ride some animals for travel faster
- in relation with the power : jump highter, or a levitation spell
- when we are underwater ... let the character swiming

[Caarrie]

please keep http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=29604.msg339295#msg339295 in mind when making your posts here most of the recent suggestions are not "simple"

[Gayke]

yes i realise that my sugestions are except the subject.

i just started to play on PS and i already love it  , so i want too much too fast.

but for the clothes : if we can choose a colour at the moment of the purchase (all colour possible, or random colour at the moment of the purchase), it can personalize the character better.

Well ! i am going to immersive more myself before ask for simple things ... i think i have more to learn from this immersive environement after only 7 days of playing (i like the post who talk about no data lost, and i extrapolate for the year's players's mental health)

and ... greating for the planshift team from a new player

(sorry for my poor english)

1. server status on the front page. this is a must, i truly dont want to go look on the forums.
2. the phrase "well it's not my fault/wasn't my idea" or "theres nothing i can do about it" needs to be used less. if you cant do anything about it, DONT POST. dont declare yourself an almighty mod and then point fingers. a much better response would be "i'll do everything i can to get you an answer"
3. if the game/registration server is down, maybe put a redirect link in registration to a different page, or remove it altogether.
that is all.

3. if the game/registration server is down, maybe put a redirect link in registration to a different page, or remove it altogether.
that is all.

NOT possible the registration and server on the same machine with the database for the game. this top 5 list is for things ingame not things for the forum or websites.

[Scuzzle]

1. An npc that could hold an item for another player to pick up later (not to sell the item or to store the item) maybe a charge if you are selling the item to another player. the npc sells the item to the other player for the amount you specify or free and when the other player picks up the item you can go back and get your money. This would be helpful if I'm in Hydlaa and have to leave the game and can't wait on player x to get there from oja or bd, etc...or they are offline themself.

2. bigger/harder death realm

[neko kyouran]

not simple!

[Bakin_Fundinson]

Okay, these suggestions are simple to propose, but maybe not so simple implement, but here they are anyway:

1. Go to the tanner and dye your armor or clothing or whatever in 5-10 basic colurs
    (I would aim at mideveal plant-colors, no blue here, but dev's choice)
    This is not clothes per se I'm talking about, but the possibility to change color on what we've got
    There should be one tanner per town.
2. Make the game stable / playable.
    By this I mean no crash of client, server or such.
    A persistent MMO should be just that -- I want a stable, reliable game that we can trust to be up. For now it's: Toss a coin; can we play?
    (not easy, but simple) 
3. A few "wandering" monsters on the roads, just to make things a little more interesting when travelling the wild 

[neko kyouran]

Okay, these suggestions are simple to propose, but maybe not so simple implement, but here they are anyway:

So my question here is : Can you list up to 5 SIMPLE things you would like to see implemented

FAIL.

People have one last chance to do this right before I go through and delete everything that fails in this thread.

[Mythryndel]

OK... let me give it a try...

1. More critters of varying strengths that are mildly to moderately aggressive in the areas between towns. I assume this is a matter of adding them, not a matter of having to change code or get new graphics of any kind.

2. I know this is addressed somewhere else too, but have a NPC or two in towns that can give basic directions to anyone else in that town. Optionally what town other NPCs are from if not in the town you are currently in.

3. Make a gateway in the winch to each of the major towns. I believe you basically have to "teleport" between different maps at the boundaries, so this shouldn't be too difficult, and you could make it one way if you think it would be too much of a shortcut. This would definitely make me happy, and reduce the use of the DR to travel between remote areas of the map.

4. Reduce cost to train magic. It is much less powerful than weapons, at least at the levels I am at, but costs tons more to train.

5. Make all of the blacksmith characters (3 that I know of) able to train up to lvl 5 or 10 in basic weapons crafting. That way new characters who start out don't have to travel the entire map just to get basics.

5 b. Also, I haven't tried this in-game, but maybe I need to. It would be nice, if when you finish training with someone (past where they can train you), if you could ask them if they know of someone who can train you higher. This is realistic, even IC, because you can't really train someone in something you haven't really been trained in...  so they had to get their training from somewhere...

2: Bar

3: Why would there be a portal in the Winch? The devs won't just slap down portals everywhere because it's handier for some

The rest are mostly Settings related or balancing and may or may not be done.

[Enaudni]

1.) Provide a 1 or 2 tria cost training weapon for each weapon class. Give it incredibly low damage and make it out of wood. These are easy to model and texture, would take no time.  This will fix the weird imbalance that super weak weapon drops can actually be worth tons of money if its exceptionally weak due to people wanting them for training.

2.) Move more configuration options out of pssetup and into psclient. AA and Resolution come to mind.

3.) Add follow function.

4.) Make DR exit respawns random so that one cannot utilize it as a shortcut.

5.) Convert genmesh in BD region to terrainmesh for improved performance. This can be done straight with some tools in CS iirc, and won't even require changing the source files.

[Mythryndel]

Sorry, I was trying for easy to implement, not necssarily easy to code.

As for winch... I figured that it is reduced access, so would be a good place to place this to see how it would work out. Also, there are several spots there that seem to implicate a connection to other areas. The large platform at BD fortress matches the large platforms at the edges of the Winch area. I think this would be a really nice feature of the game.

[EDIT] Also, a "portal like this would be incredibly powerful and need lots of power/magic to maintain. It makes sense to put it there for this reason as well. Also, especially considering a portal to BD Fortress, it makes sense for two other reasons... one-way to get reinforcements there in a hurry but not allow it in reverse. But the large structure is already there (large platform with circle of power etched into it... maybe i've just read too many fantasy novels). It makes more sense that such an important place would have a portal connection, as opposed to just random small places.

Also right now, with out having a mount or anything you can ride to speed up travel it takes a minimum of 30 minutes of REAL time to go from Akkaio to BD Fortess. And several quests make you go back and forth once, if not twice. That is not to mention that the trainers for almost all higher stats are out there in BD. Everyone gripes about DR shortcuts, and how RP is dead... well... maybe, like me, everyone is just too busy running around. This time is the minimum possible time as I don't have to stop and regen my stamina anymore.

I really like the suggestion about adding a "follow" function. This is already available for pets, so shouldn't be too difficult to add for players.

I don't understand "2. Bar"...
