Suggestions On How To Keep The Server Interesting

[Veracity]

More than a few of our older players have been saying that there's nothing to do anymore. While we try to improve the server for new players, we don't want to ignore our current player's needs as well. We're looking to the community to come up with suggestions for new things that we can add to keep the server fresh and interesting. Whether it's new events, new quests, or anything else you have in mind, this is the place to post it. Bonus points for coming up with creative and unique solutions to this problem!

Note: any suggestions or improvements concerning new players should go here.

Suggestions so far:

• Add new events (Lv. 1 Novice LMS with no gear, no healing items, no levels)

[supream]

finding bob event plz. make it so you need like 10 people to save him. make the prize interesting.

[Acetrainer]

I suggest level 1 novice LMS. No gear, no levels, no healing items. Just raw blood and gore, with 10% more punching.

Can you be more specific about what you have in mind?

It can be a Novice Gladiator event! GMs can drop a few weapons and players have to fight to get them. Maybe throw in some tigers or other wild beasts too... Joking about those parts, but that sounds like it would be a fun event.

Players should stop killing people randomly, esp if our equipments are less superior than yours!!

[Veggie&Mac]

Theres is a lot of things to thing about, like the main reason why people just Quit

WHY?

"Scammers" the first reason.

Ok, ok, to be fair, there is rules and we keep doing the same shit over and over again, you know people make friends, people trust, people lend items

Is like if you guys says something like "Hey! come here, play in Forsaken ro but dont trust in anyone and have fun", this things make people get greedy, or make

littles groups making hard for the good integration of people ( newbies or just friendly ones ). Try this > go to fcity in a "unknow" name and say hi! randomly, the answer will be WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU????.

The second reason is: if i was scammed i want my items back and the scammer get all the punishment of the law

but the all what we get is something like this

Poof!!!! your item it's gone = Quit.

Other thing is why we still getting more and more Gms if they arent always online?

That means less events like Dice, warps, scrabble, poring balls, and others good and massive games who used to keep the people interested in something.

why you dont enable to get a Price ( a good one ) when you finish the Endless tower, giving people a purpose to make it and dont just to waste time????

So my suggestion is Fix the thing how you guys solve the users problems, bring the old events back, listen the people in game making interactive Survey in fcity or GM center and let people tell you what they want, need, coz as you can see forums are always visited for the same people, same people make suggestions, same people vote ( like 20 users thats dont show you what people think )

If the mountain will not come to forums, Gms must go to the mountain

Concerning the scamming, I understand where you're coming from completely. In an ideal world, we would be able to do this. However, from a practical perspective, we can't return all of the items lost from scam cases. This is for multiple reasons: (a) People try to lie about these cases many times and take advantage of us to get free items (b) if the admins do just @item new items, that means all of the old items are out there somewhere too and we're adding a lot of new items into the economy that weren't paid for or earned. In the long term, this would hurt the economy in game and the funds the server is able to produce. We do return items if we're able to recover them, which is more than many servers will do. © Your items are your responsibility. Yes, you can trust people and lend out your items, but you also have to realize the risks associated with that and the possibility you will not get your items back. From an official standpoint, the staff has to discourage lending out items, since often times if you do, you won't get them back and it's difficult, time consuming, and often impossible for us to track them down.

As for what else you're saying, I think it would be a good idea to make Endless Tower more challenging and rewarding. Do you have any ideas for prizes we could add? The more specific everyone is in their suggestions, the better it is and the quicker the changes will be added. I'm not sure what old events you're referring to, it'd be great if you could elaborate more.

We could get people's opinions in game and I think it would be helpful. Although it's much easier to keep track of what people say on the forums and refer back to it, which is why we do it the way we do now. People who aren't willing to join the forums and make a post have no right to complain about not having a voice. It takes only a few minutes to register and isn't hard so they really have no excuse. As Thomas Jefferson said, "We do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate," and I think that applies in this case. We're allowing everyone to voice their concerns, its up to them whether or not they want to take advantage of that. We can however broadcast in game about this and feel free to tell your friends so they can post here.

I dont remember the name but that one where the Gm call someone randome and roll the dice then you have to roll the dice and guess if you number is + or - than the Gm

> The other one is Mindbreaker

and my suggestion about a new epic game is:

The Rune of the Death

In a custom map ( i hope Awesome one )

will be poring types like Aquaring, Firering, leafring and earthring*

Every poring will have arround 10M hp and give coma 5% chance, there will be arround 50 each of poring type but there is only will drop a X rune ( fire, aqua, wind or earth ) when you click to the npc to entry to the event this will broadcast what Rune you must give to the npc to recieve the next order until you complete the Runes of Death ( the npc will need 1 rune random at time and depending of the user too ), you cant use GTB, the first guy who give the all Runes to the npc win, in this map u cant use any skill!!! you can re participate if you die.

sory in english is really hard to explain this xD

Since we already have installed automated events it won't be hard to add others since you can use the command functions of another script as a tablet to follow. So before on the server I was admining I had an invasion script idea. But im not going to give the whole thingy so heres basically a descrip of how it could work with Forsaken Ro.

Forsaken Invaders

1st Mobs invade forsaken city from all the red dots on the map [exits] Mobs include Wanderers, 
Blood Knights, Gargoyles, Thanatos Odiums. Mobs have 190 attack speed, do 12k damage, and have over 20m hp each. 

2nd - Mobs have been exterminated. Announcement the Elder Overseers of the monsters have broken free of their bonds and
 begun to invade the town. 

Earthen Overseer [Sprite of Gopinich] Damage does 30k Hits, 193 attack speed 400m Health
Fire Overseer [Sprite of Lava Golem] Damage does 70k hits, 185 attack speed 900m Health
Water Overseer [ Sprite of Strouf ] Damage does 20k Hits, 197 attack speed 200m Health
Wind OVerseer [ Sprite of Gryphon ] Damage does 10k Hits, 199 attack speed 300m Health 

Being the mvp of one of these Overseers will reward you with a Savior token which can be turned in for buff scrolls, tokens, 
event tokens, or new items (tired of making new ones all the time so you guys do it) And the mvp will be announced on the map as a 
hero so if people want to buy the tokens they can pm them. 

Script will run twice a day from 12 to 12 so europeans and americans can get their chance at it fairly.

Not Fcity please, It'll lag and kill everyone, and we cant use skill in Fcity, How bout other city? like Prontera,Nifleheim,etc. & Random spot would be better so people wont keep FASing like what they did to Thanas in for_fild01 ( Halloween event ). :\

&&

I was thinking about an Automated Event, the prize will be : A GM for 24h? It's where you need to talk to NPC to get in the map ( like prt_maze03 ), Commands disabled, No fly wing allowed. 1x Cowring will be spawn once every 1 week, Whoever kill it got 1 Point and the most point they got in the end of the event, The winner will be decided after 4 months/3 months ( Its an event for those who wanted to be a Gm but didnt get the job, and since its 3/4 months, it wont be abusable, What can they do? Host events if there's another Gm around, if there isnt any, They can hangout at the Gm's guid hideout and try other stuff? Just some necessary commands tho. :P ). Or change the reward as smth else? Like a cowring hat, drops hat, poporing hat, darkring hat,etc? :P

[Leaz]

Players should stop killing people randomly, esp if our equipments are less superior than yours!!

really? if you have a problem with this, just don't pvp.

anyways, since i read a lot of people complaining that the pvp ladder is monopolized by 'richer' players, maybe a non-donation pvp ladder is a good idea. ( idk if the idea was accepted or not )

it could also attract more people to the pvp rooms.

[nines]

Fcity would be best since its an invasion script and it would force people in the town to actually participate or die lol

[kax]

really? if you have a problem with this, just don't pvp.

Im not surprised with how you responded.

People like you are one of the obvious reasons why new players leave.

Just so you know :)

+1 for trolling effort.

& that's why we have a non-donation pvp room.

NINES I LOVE THESE IDEA !!

[supream]

about the bob event you would have to ask sensation.

[TensaZangetsu]

i agree to nines suggestion, pretty cool.

[Schwalkzvad Beowulve]

1. Add an extended quest for PvP Prizes. another 1-2% reducts for Sacred Wings after the quest, and 3-5% more reflect on RAWs. The quest should be hard. They would require the Sacred Wings/RAW itself, and then other items to buff it up. The items can be later named Forsaken King's Sacred Wings or Forsaken King's Royal Angel Wings.

2. Let's take PvP Ladder Movement Wings and add another extended quest. Creating new sprites (replace the current ones) and give them 50% speed potion equivalent bonus movement speed. And then, they can do an extended quest for that wing itself, so that it can give bonus movement speed equivalent of the speed potion itself. So during WoE, people would be able to change between reductions, reflects, or movement speed.

3. A new PvP Ladder Prize. Attack Wings. It should give something like 10% extra damage on alll enemies. (more or less, 10% is just an example), but the user also takes 5-10% more damage done to them.

4. Extended quest for Forsaken King's Armor, Cloak, and Shoes. Just like Frigg's.

I hope these quest are already being planned and taken into placing. If it is considered. It would be really interesting to see an extended quest for the armors. Not sure whether or not the extended quest will result to an imbalance server. I'm still new so I've still got lots to learn. Don't mind me.

[Veracity]

I love the idea of extended quests, things similar to this are already in progress. It'd be great if we could get more feedback on the new PvP wings you're suggesting (attack and speed).

It would be wonderful if we could get more suggestions about new things we can add specifically for older players. This, along with helping new players, are our two top priorities right now and will be added in the next update (or two). Point being, this is the time to speak up with all of your ideas. We're giving you guys a say in the direction the server is going and a lot of what you suggest will happen so take advantage of this now!

[nines]

Wow and my ladder ideas was op? 10% dmg wings would be beyond op even if u take more dmg.

[Schwalkzvad Beowulve]

So both wings will be a new set of PvP Ladder Prizes. They come in different colors.

The attack wings can give something ilke +10% to all damage done +10% to all damage taken. Not thinking about doing an extended quest for this, Otherwise it'd be too OP.

The speed wings would give 50% equivalent of using speed potion movement speed. The extended quest would enable the wing to give movement speed equivalent to speed potion. It can be used as a replacement for a speed potion.

[xXxJCxXx]

The speed wings would give 50% equivalent of using speed potion movement speed. The extended quest would enable the wing to give movement speed equivalent to speed potion. It can be used as a replacement for a speed potion.

I suggest speed potion/concentrated speed potion should be part of the quest items for the speed wings in the extended quest. Because this will replace speed potion and speed potion economy is not that great anymore. This will also increase the farming of speed potions and will also help newbies a lot. Like maybe 100 speed tickets or 100 concentrated speed tickets or more?

Just my opinion.

[romeobunny]

Maybe an mvp event"maybe like 50 mvps on 1 map' (none of them drops there card) and some of the mvps are hideing secreat drops "such as event tokens, bloody branchs, thana summons, emps /gg" or some other kinda small stuff

[Schwalkzvad Beowulve]

MvP - Kill an MvP, and you'll get, lets say ."Sign of Golden Thief Bug". collect 50 of them and you get something. Different MvPs would give different items. What do you guys think? It's a random thought.
