Re-release DAOC having this.

1. A Mail System (mailbox) similar to the one in today's MMOs. To be able to mail items and plat to your ALT characters would save alot of time and pain. Relying on other players to make a trade is too risky. Someone new to the game doesn't really want to take that risk. No need for an Auction House though. The Housing System and Merchants work great.

2. A UI that's more user friendly like the one's we see in today's MMOs, but not an exact clone. Seperating the buffs from the debuffs for starters. A Looting System that caters to the class to prevents ninjas. A Party/WarBand Grouping System to save hours of time looking for groups/warbands to join. A Layout Editor allows you to move, multiply or hide any object on your screen. An advanced chat system. Right click on names for menu options, join party, whisper, ect. BOB's UI is great and it's the best Usermade UI I've ever used, but its time for an overhual.

3. Ofcourse above all else I think having your characters move more limber and smooth is the most needed upgrade. The characters movement mechanics compared to today's MMO is like playing the original Vitual Fighter. Very robotic compared to today's MMO. Fixing this would make RvR a hundred times more fun and inviting for new subs.

4. How bout a port system to towers which you control so you can get back in the fight almost instantly. This running down to the dock, taking the boat, then trying to make it across miles of NF to get back to the fight is just stupid. For one, if you're a vizzy 9 times out of 10 you're toast. Plus the travel speed in NF is twice as slow as in PVE areas. So that makes it even harder.

5. Make normal travel speed in NF what sprint speed in NF is now. Or at the very least make the travel speed in NF as fast as it is in PVE areas. On top of that, they need to get rid of the movement reduction speed while in combat. Your speed in and out of combat should remain the same. (unless poisoned, snared, rooted or mezzed)

6. Upgrade the crafting window. If anything needs done to crafting it's this and nothing else.

With the above link, you have the option to craft multiple items with 1 click instead of 1 click per item created.
In other words, if you have enough for 100 items, then when you hit create all, it will create all 100 with that one single click.
Incase you are confused, this means you get 100 or more items created with one click insted of 1 item created per click.
Another way of putting it is, click once, go take a piss, come back and all your mats will be used up and your items in its place.

These are just 6 of my ideas that I believe would make the game much better.
In no way am I trying to insult anyone's intelligence. Thank you.



your posts always insult everyones intelligence that has to read them...

the movement in the game is fine, it doesnt need more porting, if anything it needs LESS porting...

and the craft ting is just rediculous, the crafting needs more interaction then 1 button go, it needs the 1 button to move around at random so people cant use macro programs to craft... people should be there crafting, not afk while 100 items make themselves...
