Title: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Deval on 04/16/03 at 07:46:38 Alot of complaining happens these days due to the game being 'too crowded'. Folk complain about how, at peak times, there are we too many people online for streamlined, and/or fun play. Whilst the map is constantly being added to, I believe that when a new city is released, there should be something more to draw people there, other than the boss areas. Perhaps hoisting exp? Gold? Something, anything. Alot of map expansion is happening yes, but 85% of that are boss areas, and the other 15% only end up being convienient whilst the boss is there. Old Nightmist there was always a nice spread of crits all over the map, and thats because there were different benefits to different cities, of course, this excludes the elven village, that was only good for dropping newbs off at, who could never ever ever ever get out unless they were willing to die. But yeah, give us something more than just bosses to draw us to new cities, to spread the population. Just my two cents, converted from Australian to U.S = 1c |

Post by wonderful_nightmare on 04/16/03 at 14:26:58 lol i agree with deval once more :D there should be a benefit to exploring new areas except just a new boss :d i know i enver go exploring cuz it's a waste of training time :D if i want to go kill a boss in a new area i jsut ask someone to take me there :D i could use a little push in the right direction to go explore some more :D |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Tender_Foot on 04/16/03 at 16:46:48 yeah, i was looking at the new city, whatever its called south of black thorn, it seemed to me, the only point to go there was to kill the hedge monster |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Stotic on 04/16/03 at 22:55:39 I know what you mean. I have it all planned out in my head. To be fair to the community...I'm currently outlining in my head to perhaps recreate Great Northern Plains, Temple of Giants, and possibly Pern Valley. All are ideas I'm toying with and some I would need help from elder players who remember descriptions. :P |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Tzunami on 04/17/03 at 00:25:50 yea, true, I usually am REALLY excited about exploring but since the new areas came out, I've stopped, maybe the new cities should be closer to the more populated cities like NM or arilin with small to medium sized areas seperating them to encourage more ppl to go and check out the new places. |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Autek on 04/17/03 at 18:10:45 Whenever a person goes to train in a far off town, for example Sarka, they have to come back to the populated areas to level up. Perhaps if people could level in less populated towns (add guilds), the population would be spread out. Also, arenas and shops could be put in to attract visitors. However I think the population remains around Nightmist and Arilin because of the population of newbies who cannot survive the road to far off towns. So without something attracting the stronger players, they won't stay in the distant towns, thus having a distant town pretty much deserted. |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Norinth on 04/17/03 at 20:09:35 That's why I love druids, no matter what's yer level (5-30) you can just camo and four minutes after you are in any part of the world of Nightmist. Safe and simple, one click and you are ready. |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Currupted on 04/17/03 at 20:24:22 I actually have to agree with Norinth here, since I started using my two druids more the camo spell has helped me get from point A to point B un-touched. |

that's why bringing pern back is a good idea. many of you won't now it but it's the perfect town to pk :D. maybe even make it so that ppl have to go there to buy some special armor or put some special guild there :D |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Tender_Foot on 04/18/03 at 07:23:14 the only flaw in that plan is...that was pre-reset. the game is different now. just putting in pern-vally, doesnt mean its going to become the bloodly place it use to be. |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Android 20 on 04/18/03 at 07:25:24 My guess is you didn't play pre-reset or you would want this in. |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by DragonZero on 04/18/03 at 15:20:56 when exactly did this reset thing happen? i wasn't around |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Norinth on 04/18/03 at 19:14:29 Hmm a few years ago. The world and classes changed completely. Kinda like Noah and the big flood... A few days after the world was back, but changed a lot. I started right after the reset ;D |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Bean on 04/19/03 at 09:28:35 Yeah, Pern valley was fun to hang out at... Kinda good for levels, Horrible for pking *only cause i was the victim all the time*. And the tavern always had colorful characters in it... *ebony, Necrinomicron, Deval, Android, Ikaros, Baros, Cinder, Pandilex, JLH, I coudl go on for like three more names :P) |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Norinth on 04/19/03 at 13:35:03 I think a new boss would be better.... Sorta: "Sslix (or whatever the name is) died out of boredom but his son Mini-Teeny-Weeny-Sslix is there to kill you with his Mini-Teeny-Weeny-Razor Claws." |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Deval on 04/22/03 at 23:43:13 I have in the past vouched for having Razor Claws back, but you gotta be careful putting something like Razor Claws in, specially Pern Valley. With Blade of Time becoming more common, and the Emerald Dagger or whatever its called, lurking somewhere waiting to be exploited, one must try to make sure the current weaponry 'balance' is not thrown out of whack. |

Title: Re: Wrong Path of Expansion? Post by Blast on 04/28/03 at 09:43:01 its stiupid idea but it would add little more to explore a are for, like if u ll be doing any ancient ruins or something like that make a square with some ancient statue or so and there u would be able to hear all yells in the game ??? ::) ;D |
