What should be developed next?

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,780 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 I have just spent the last hour or so tidying up my big sprawling 'notes and ideas' document (currently 56 pages long). I'm not promising to follow exactly what the results of this poll are, but I'm interested in hearing opinions on what should be prioritised next. There's a mix of big items and smaller items in here.... There's also other stuff I want to do later which has not yet made it onto this list (e.g. cycles, trailers). One item I have definitely decided to work on ASAP is that of 'alternative wilderness combats', which are scheduled in the events diary to maximise participation: (1) Where everyone controls NPCs: "just for fun" (2) Where Somerset is attacked and you can sign up to help the defenders or the attackers; each player car added removes say two NPC cars; there would need to be big $ prizes and lots of fame or skill bonuses for winners. (3) You would be hired to defend NPC traders (or pirates) and then be automatically involved in a combat (with your own cars and vehicles) on their side, the next time they had a fight and you were in the lobby. A good pvp mechanism. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Apr 6, 2008, 11:59 pm

Parduz BroadRausters Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 523 Joined: Feb 5, 2008 I was near to click on the "paintball" option (which should be a lot of fun) while i was finishing to read the description of the "alternative wilderness combats". I can't really loose the chance to push the "just for fun" option (thoug the others seems very good also). Sam, with this post you've raised my expectations a lot ......................... vet wv Posted Apr 7, 2008, 1:06 am

Shark Feeding Frenzy Autodueller Renegade Group: Members Posts: 476 Joined: May 5, 2007 Holy crap Giant Insects brilliant! This NEEDS to be in the game ASAP. Think about it giant insects. Please sir, I implore you this idea is brilliant. But seriously some sort of giant insect "large group raid" would be awesome something that would require like 5-10 good people to have a chance against like a giant colony of ants or something. ......................... vet wv Posted Apr 7, 2008, 1:12 am Last edited Apr 7, 2008, 1:17 am by Shark

Just have to find them....... One that comes to mind is "Bad news on the Rise" in the BL roleplaying forum. ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Apr 7, 2008, 1:14 am Last edited Apr 7, 2008, 1:16 am by JD_Basher

Seiler Pestilence Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Storytellers Posts: 946 Joined: Apr 29, 2007 I gotta admit it was a tough choice, kinda like which Christmas gift to open early. I clicked Alternative Wilderness Encounters, but Camp changes, Paintball games, Insects, are all right up there with it. Basically, stuff that will flesh out the feel of the world of Evan (not PB games, but hey that's just too much fun) and add to the depth of the play. ......................... vet deathrceL1 wv Posted Apr 7, 2008, 1:15 am

*JD_Basher* Gearjammers Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Storytellers Posts: 2,728 Joined: Feb 11, 2007 Yeah, I voted for the wilderness alternative too. Insects next I hope. ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Apr 7, 2008, 1:19 am

madmax MainForcePatrol Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 560 Joined: Dec 6, 2007 I voted for Per-town and per-NPC-gang reputations and fames. I also beleive this should include some advantadges for the good guys. (which would equal about 3-4 people AFAIK) ......................... vet wv Posted Apr 7, 2008, 2:25 am

Marrkos 88 MPH Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 3,711 Joined: Mar 28, 2006 Ahhhh, the voice of dissent.... If you've already decided to work on the Alternative Wilderness stuff then it should be replaced in the poll with something that is still optional. I'd go with camp changes, but mostly because I think they are still not quite right. ......................... vet wv community Posted Apr 7, 2008, 4:18 am

Victor New Cal Rangers Racer Renegade Group: Members Posts: 151 Joined: Jan 10, 2008 I voted for the giant insects. Alternate wilderness encounters would probably be my second choice, mainly because I'm not interested in the implied PvP aspects, myself. Most of the other additions listed would actually remove/decrease incentive for players to join public squads. There's little enough as it is, IMO. ......................... vet wv Posted Apr 7, 2008, 4:52 am Last edited Apr 7, 2008, 4:54 am by Victor

Dwarger River Bandits Sunday Driver Renegade Group: Members Posts: 76 Joined: Jan 12, 2008 Bug hunts could be fun. Maybe once a game year go with a big raid near each town and success or failure can influence the chance for bug wilderness encounters for that town? Maybe time them every two weeks, have one town do their raid so people can move from town to town and participate in the raids. Could be a good addition. Maybe ped squads to go in some holes??? ......................... vet wv Posted Apr 7, 2008, 5:17 am

Monty Black Rock Racer Renegade Group: Members Posts: 215 Joined: Jan 6, 2008 I might be strange but for me it was between Ped combat arena and rep and fame per groups... I dont need camp, Bugs are fun but can wait for me even longer. Alternatives are nice but can wait imo too... But I am eager to see everything from this poll implemented ......................... vet northernsummer wv Posted Apr 7, 2008, 6:16 am

Jansan Vigilante Knights Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 1,070 Joined: May 7, 2007 The camp balancing stuff is important, but most camp changes hardly affect me at all, or the majority of players, which is why I'd put them lower on my list. The additional wilderness stuff, ped arena events, psionics, and bug/radioactive monster stuff is more important I think. ......................... vet Posted Apr 7, 2008, 7:28 am

Alocalypse Advanced Race Labs Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 2,236 Joined: May 6, 2007 I voted camp combats, but 'alternative' combats which is a nice way to avoid saying 'PvP' combats are high on my wishlist too. And of course the camp manufacturing changes. ......................... vet deathrce1 raceL1 race1 combat1 northernsummer gateautumn elmsautumn deathrceL1 semiprocombat wv cont Posted Apr 7, 2008, 9:24 am

*Zothen* Knights Templar Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals Posts: 841 Joined: Jun 11, 2007 Sam, youre a devil! So much choices, so much stuff worth to wait for. What should I choose? I nibbled my fingers, walked up and down in my flat for hours, meditated in a bhuddist temple for days, used dangerous designer drugs that where supposed to bring enlightment and walked through my hometown naked, burning olibanum in a teapot-warmer swung on a string. So solution. Today I woke up and got the idea: A timeshift two years into the future! Two years and all of this great stuff would be implemented! Only two years! But I guess its hard to code such a timeshift, eh? ......................... vet marshal wv Posted Apr 8, 2008, 6:37 pm Last edited Apr 8, 2008, 6:37 pm by Zothen
