Yay More Ideas!
#1 More storage is always good, but you will or you will not, we have been beating you over the head with it for over a year, maybe thats why you have been slow implementing more, cause now your slow in the head :P. But, one more type of storage I would like to see is storage for special items like- Bonus items, holiday items, mini-pets, and armor. Seriously, I have 3 pumpkin heads and 5 dragon masks, beside 1 horns of grenth and 1 santa hat, and quite a few pets, I NEED SPACE!
#2 Need to make the special event hats un-customized, so I can sell 2 of those pumpkin heads and 4 of those dragon masks, and buy or trade for a tengu mask.
#3 I payed over 20 bucks to get the factions pre-pack fast shipped to me, but I got screwed, and anyway, missed the event. Please dont pull anymore BS like that again. I mean it, I was so mad over that, I was seriously thinking about just going into town and killing people randomly, I was that angry. At least make it so that if someone misses an event, because, say, that are with family at christmas and new years, that they arent screwed. Also, this business of only letting certain regions get things, like different stuff in different bonus packs, that is also BS. Like that cokeplay thing in asia. I have an idea though. Those who bought the factions collector's edition got the soundtrack included with it, so yes, they technically "bought" it, but it was included, and the extra goodie they got out of it was they were able to downloaded the bonus music, the ones that didnt come with the soundtrack, for free. Those who didnt get the CE though, could still get all of the music by buying it. I think the same thing should be available for the stuff people either miss or had no way of getting, like the cokeplay items, or the european bonus pack items. I hear they were different than our american bonus items. Some way or another, if you really want one of the in-game skins, you can get it.
#4 Now for the new ideas, the good stuff.
NAVAL COMBAT!
This would also be a way to introduce a more WoW design into GW. Basically, all of the Seas connecting Tyria to Cantha to Elona would be 1 big battleground, where anyone can attack anyone else.
Basically, guilds and alliances could build ships, lets say with in-game materials (YAY, a way to get wood expensive, so wood farmers can make money :P), and even be able to dye their ships with dye (watch black dye rise to 20k ROFL :P). Then, the question would be to make it 1 person controls a ship, the design being like Sid Meier's Pirates, so as long as someone is in a guild, they can play the seafaring aspect of the game.
The other way to do it would make it so that ships are manned by 8 - 12 guildies, for 8 man crew, 6 ballista operators, 1 helmsman, and 1 sail operator. for 12, 4 ballista, 1 helmsman, 1 sailman, and rest ?. And then there would be the ? of making it so there could be boarding actions or not. If there could be, then 8 man crews would make sense, so it could become like guild battles. But if boarding actions werent allowed, and it was basically sink or be sinked combat, then this would be a new way for guilds to fight, but those who have never been very good at mastering team builds and winning guild battles could finally have a fun way to fight as a guild group, and not even have to worry about their build, just hop on board and fight.
So, there is the whole ocean, filled with npc ships and with players ships. Think about it. Lets say anet went with the 8 man crew, so thats up to 12 ships from a single guild. Now lets say that they allow alliances to get fight together, that would be 12 x 10, or 120 ships! THINK OF THE SEA BATTLES THAT COULD HAPPEN! And Anet has said that they are thinking of adding things like cooking and crap like that to the game, WHY NOT SHIPBUILDING! This would also be a way to keep kurzick/luxon faction applicable in later chapters, or something like that. One could also reintroduce the white mantle, but now they have a naval fleet! And the Canthan Empire has a fleet as we have seen out in Kaineng Center's Harbor. There could be continent vs continent naval warfare! Also, sail along the coast of each continent and attack corsairs and pirates. OR EVEN ATTACK IMPERIAL SHIPS! Muahahahahaha.
#5 One of the things I liked about factions was that it made it seem more lived in. Like, walk outside into Bukdek Byway, and there are many many npc civilians just ambling around, heck, in Wajjun Bazzar, I have seen a guard chase after a thief, and a male npc talk to a female guard, trying to get her to take some time off. Good Stuff. Makes the game seem alive. I don't know where I am going with this one.... Ah, have repeatable quests allowing invasions of places, like cantha sending a fleet over, full of npcs and players, setting up a beachhead in kryta, and invading that country. More good stuff like that. I WANT TO SATISFY MY BLOODLUST, MUAHAHAHAHAHA.
#6 More fighting and finishing animations. More animations is always good.
#7 Add into the game the ability to see blood. This would of course be a setting, so us older people could use it while kiddies wouldn't be allowed. But it would be fun to hack a human npc and the animation be I cut of his head, and blood squirts out. I suppose thats just wishful thinking.
I'll probably edit this with more ideas later. Post what you think.
