idea!...

Here are a few ideas that randomly popped into my head....

1. Randomly spawning uber dragons!
- spawns rarely(twice a day?) near cities full of noobs so they can run for their lives
- eliminates groups camping in one place to kill an uber monster
- cities can have something with hitpoints in them... like obelisks
- if dragon destroys obellisks major economic problems(ie. double prices in shops for a set period of time... like... a few hours?) simulating what happens when... a dragon ruins a town!
- dragon disappears in an hour if not killed
- person who deals certain amount of damage to dragon gets some sort of reward for defending city!
- could force people to quickly form armies...maybe...

2. FEAR OF DYING!
- browsing the forums i picked one of the most terrible rpg fun killers that form... KILLING FOR EXP/or money. in real life you fight to survive, but in most rpgs dying isn\'t that bad, so people will just go out not caring if they die. so if their was a higher penalty for dying it could make people form parties not for faster xp, but to survive.
- higher penalty for dying (you automatically log out and can\'t log back in for an hour? or something) could simulate the NO RETURN aspect of dying in real life... to a lesser extent. Like if you\'re friend dies and is out for an hour you\'ll be like \"FRICK!\" but if your friend comes back in ten minutes you\'re just like \"frick\"
- makes people afraid of dying

1. There won\'t be any dragons in PS, they\'re too over used :P

2. Death has already been thought out. When you die you\'ll go to the Death Realm, where you\'ll have to find your way out.

[Zellrath]

no dragons!? aw well guess they are overused....

[FlippySeal]

Dragons are cool... but i think it\'s good they aren\'t in PS. Besides there will be other uber beasts of death lurking out there!!

death realm sound cool, but i hope its not gonna be something thats really hard to get out of? are there gonna be mobs in the death realm? if so would i get XP for killing them? what if they killed me? would there be a sub death realm?

The details are still being ironed out- it looks like in CB we\'ll just have to sitting look at our corpse for a while, but I think the eventual plan is that you\'ll have to do puzzles to get out of the death realm. If you don\'t prove yourself worthy to live again, suck as dying 4 times in 5 minutes, the devs will mark you as permantly dead.

Hmm, you wont be permamently dead... That would just be retarded.

[Syzerian]

the death realm will most likely be a randomly generated maze. Once you get out, you get your stuff back.
Although a maze would be too easy if you use the left/right hand rule

[Icefalcon]

Yeah...mazes are easy. I have no idea what they are going to do with that...trivia maybe?
