Just some things to consider down the road. Maybe way, way, way down the road. :D
#1 - It would be nice, especially if/when the map is expanded, to be able to click on a portion of the map and say "go there," rather than just using the compass right now. For instance, traveling from Silent Hill to Yellow Lake takes two clicks - it would be great to be able to say "Just do the whole journey."
Some wisecracker will come along (as they inevitably do on these forums) and say "Are you really so lazy that you can't click the mouse twice?" Aside from the fact that I go AFK while I'm travelling, consider that it might not seem a big deal now, but if the map gets to be even 50% larger than it is now, it will be a real hassle.
#2 - Currently at the hunter's guild, you can buy a hunting license to shorten your wait time between hunts (for a brief period). Why not do this for travel as well? Create a Travel Service, or something, and make the cost and benefits relative to the hunting license.
For instance, you can rent a horse for 7 days and it will reduce your travel time by 20%. A griffin, by %40. A wizard teleporter, by %60.
#3 - This one is purely cosmetic. During travel sequences, when you are just staring at the map for 120+ seconds, it would be cool to have an animation that was relative to the terrain you were passing through. Even a simple, looping animation (not unlike the animations on the creature screens) would add something to it. |
| i like your ideas=D |
#1=Still okay
#2=Had been suggested MANY TIME.
#3=I like this 1. |
#1. There is already a way to do this. A couple of .ru people made us some scripts. One being that you can travel anywhere map with one button click.
#2. Travelling is part of the game, it stops people trafficking resources between facilties to fast.
#3. There already is red dot that moves ^_^ |
| i agree with everything ^^ although the 3rd idea might just cause more lag |
| for #3 sugestion: you can open google earth and imagine you are traveling that way at lordswm.com until they implement it :P |
| for #1, there are soem firefox scripts that do that...:P |
| @6 not a bad idea :D hehe |
| i like this very much |
| Not bad I've got to say really got idea. I like it. |
guys , always have lag on your mind be4 posting new ideas
back to topic :
those 3 would be rly nice , tho i rly dunno how much lag it will bring ( if it brings at all , im no expert ) |
| Lag is why I recommended the animation be simple. :) Perhaps the player could also have the choice to turn off animations. |
