Title: What players really want
Post by: Spook Island on August 17, 2012, 06:03:55 pm
This is what players really want.


1. New gear to wear.  Outfits, armor, funny looking crap, different colors of items we already have like churburg, etc...  People want to look unique and occasionally get their clown on while having fun and lightening the mood for everyone else.

2. New weapons and items to play with. (specifically melee oriented) Knives, chinese killing forks, nunchaku, whatever etc...  Everybody loves new toys to play with, especially when they are well balanced and add something new and exciting to what we already know.

These are the two things players want most.  Both of which will keep players retiring, stimulating the economy with cheap loom points, etc.. and otherwise interested in the mod; with the least overall complaints possible.

I don't see "Adding new weapons, outfits, and armor" on that list.   Which is what everybody wants.

It's not in the poll so it's something the devs won't provide.  :P

They probably just forgot to put it in there. 

Either that or they were hoping people wouldn't mention it.    Shouldn't be too difficult to change the color of some items like churburg armors, hoods, etc.. though.  Here's hoping at least.

When I saw this thread I was hoping it was a link to a Spice Girls video. Now I am disappointed.  :(

Yes the ADD generation always wants more pixel crack.

I'd prefer if the devs spent their time on things that were actually useful to improving the mod.

Some heraldic european stuff and the Highlander OSP would be bad... :)
(I`d prefer combat mechanic improvements and the ability to crouch/duck though).

Is , what players really want the same what players/the game really need ? I do have my doubts there  :wink:

Put it on the list and see how she fairs.  I can guarantee you it will be in the top 3 at least easily if people go back and look at the new option.

Everybody LOVES new toys.

It's a material world.

Plenty of people want colorful things.  That's why they make rainbow banners, etc...  I've seen plenty of people go around punching people with heavy gauntlets in lieu of weapons, and use rocks at level 30.  I just want people to have more options rather than being forced to make their own banner then be confined two a few types of heraldic armor. 

New toys are always a great thing, even when they aren't serious contenders with weapons already in the game.  Usually its better that way for devs because people don't complain as much about some new weapon being overpowered.

You use a dagger on your belt to look "smexy," maybe other people want different stuff to wear that they consider "smexy" but don't have many options to do so.  These are just additional options to let players be more individualistic rather than looking homogenized.  Their look isn't harming you.  Let them be peacocks if they want.  Birds gotta fly after all.

So you`d be okay with Fantasy bullshit and stuff just cuz of diversity? NO. And please no pink punky
bullshit and stuff, after all we should keep a bit of seriousness in here.

Nobody said that.  You can't make a reasonable argument for yourself by putting words into the mouth of someone else. 

You could do a poll on having different colors for particular items (wouldn't necessarily be pink, give me a break) and having more color options would win every single poll.

I'd like a 2 slot one-hander that can't be used with a shield, just for swashbuckling.

Not sure if I'd like that, I enjoy being able to multitask with my swashbuckler.

I like where this is going. 

Not enough pirate outfits or weapons in this game.  I think we can all agree on that.

I agree with this so many good weapons 1H shield and awesome new polearms ready to be added that haven't made it yet. The set the current glaive model is from has a longer different looking polearm warhammer (bec) that hasn't been added yet.

Joke items are a must-have, bring back the lightheartedness and the silly items.

Actually you raise a good point.  Something like Equipment Points, higher scale such as 10 or 20 points to work with.  Devs would have to work out items on an individual basis, but it would be worth the effort I think.

I see whining about devs having to add more items in a post that doesnt show any models :P

Devs dont make models, devs dont change colours in models, you post models, community might like it and devs might then maybe add some.
So if all players want more model instead of improving gameplay, go search the forums and find new equipment to suggest :P
