If I Were a Dev

 

Holding sponsored in-game events: Who, What, When, How?

JOE:

Who: Using both staff (GMs) and volunteers (MODS)

What: Dungeon / Raid events with in-game dynamic changes, such as “chase the villain through the dungeon” where the villain is a GM or MOD with specific timing and goals, RP events in player housing, Puzzle contests in the forums. Boss spawns in the wilderness, along with in-game RP, and of course, HOLIDAYS

How: on the forums via some puzzle solving, RP, etc. for forum badges and in-game for a variety of awards for achievements, RP, etc.

When: Monthly for the forums and in-game events, and coinciding with key holidays, including international holidays.

DREW:

Anything that makes players get together and kill each other. (some ideas: dev makes themselves a powerful bounty target, rare relic shows up and players have to hold it for 10 minutes without dying, etc)

Scheduled events that rotate through every day, so players always know when their favorite is going to come up next in the rotation, allows for players doing the content they want to do for the rewards they need.

Holiday events are fun, but no direct tie-in to real-life holidays except for the timeframe. No pink hearts in February, no Christmas trees, but the ideas of love and family could be present, for example.

If I Were a Dev

 

How would you do cutscenes/story content? Fully-voiced, etc.? What voice actors would you really like to get?

DREW: In a PvP game, only source of story will probably be major cutscenes, but wouldn’t mind fully voiced personal story as well.

Because of pure versatility, would really like to get Bertie Carvel (Male Agent, SWTOR), Jo Wyatt (Female agent, SWTOR), Tara Strong (pretty much everything, but Risha in SWTOR), and Brandon Keener (Garrus in ME).

JOE: SWTOR’s new method: small side quests have Wildstar-sized, Twitter-sized quest descriptions. No spacebar required for “kill 10 rats” quests. Zone, overarching plots, and so forth would be fully voiced.

Tara Strong, Courtenay Taylor (Jack in ME), John de Lancie, Andrea Libman, Keith David (Joe mispoke and called him David Keith).

  2. WildStar’s instanced housing
  3. TSW’s ability wheel (just smaller)
  4. WoW’s roll-free group finder loot.
  5. WoW/TSW realm malleability

DREW:

  1. LOTRO’s mounted combat
  2. Naval combat from Assassin’s Creed IV
  3. Skill trees from SWTOR/WoW (I love hybrids)
  4. Banks from SWTOR
  5. Trial system in Archeage

CARLA:

  1. Fighting abilities from Ultima Online (drink potions while shooting bow, throwing explosion potions blowing up other explosion potions)
  2. LOTRO housing taxes payments a year in advance (and housing escrow which holds your stuff until you come back)
  3. Crafting from SWG (intricacy, detailed, go out and find iron in ground, take core samples, mine it, empty mining drill etc)
  4. SWG and UO NPC shop vendors that you set up to sell your stuff
  5. UO’s transportation system (recall runes, mark it in a book). Could mark it wherever you want.

https://xamxamsays.wordpress.com/mercenarycommando-pvp-healing-guide/

 

If I Were a Dev

How would you name/design health and resources?

DREW: Power to power your gadgets (charge abilities, focus items, etc.) – same across the board. DCUO combo of weapons and powers with change-up abilities separate from skills. Passive increase based on progression. Minimal gear differential between gear at max level – better skills cost more power, determined more by level than gear (10-20% at most). “Health” Displayed graphically as an armor image. “Power” as battery. Modding important.

JOE: SWTOR Style customization, Guild Wars 2 style look. One stat for health and power, 20% variance in classes / gear level. Designed for multiple gear sets (burst vs sustained, etc.). Modding important.
