What would your server be like?

Mine would have no AE at all, and quadrouple the recipe drop rate in zone pvp, all zones beyond maybe the 1st 2 lowbie ones open for some kind of pvp. with caps to enter the zones.

Mine would be as far away as possible from yours.


...and women would have nipples.

Mine wouldn't be popular. But that's ok.

No awakens. No hospitals. No Medical bays. No rez powers. No jails on maps. No ding-rez.

Are you being serious or is this just a pad thread?

If you're serious I'll state my ideas. If not I'll just go about my way.

What makes you think he's not being serious? And what difference does it make?

This thread is obviously not serious.

Well, if by "serious", you mean expecting to get any of the ideas implemented, I agree with you. But if you mean seriously looking for people's fantasy rulesets, then I see no evidence to support that.

Because, I have serious ideas and thoughts about mmos. If this is just a thread to be a thread then I won't put my thoughts into words. If it is a discussion meant to provoke thoughts and ideas about a server ruleset for what could be then yes I'll contribute my thoughts.

To me, it appears to be just a fun thread. "What would you like to see", but no expectations of any of the ideas actually being used, given that the devs have been pretty clear about no special ruleset servers. I wouldn't call that a "pad" thread, though.

Don't be insulting. I'm sick of responses like these on these forums.

I was just going to ask if you weren't objecting to the kind of responses on the forums that you have been making in this thread.

Given the pretty snarky response you started with in this thread, you can hardly be surprised that you get pretty much the same in return. If you wanna post a ruleset idea, post it. If all you wanna do is make a show of sticking your nose in the air and telling people how your ideas are too good to put in this kind of thread, go take a long walk off a short pier. I assure you, you're not as brilliant and awesome as you clearly think you are.

I wasn't being snarky. I asked if it was intended as a legit conversation and judging by some of the replies it didn't appear to be so, whatever.

As far as your little insults, I expected better of you considering the types of posts you typically make.

I really don't know where you're getting that it's not a "legit conversation". What I do know is that you're coming across as an egotistical snob.

Take your opinion to pms if you wanna be like this. All these forums have been lately is beratement and nothingness and I'm surprised at this even coming from you.

Again, with the arrogant reply you made, how can you possibly be surprised to be getting this kind of response? You were fine until the post that basically said "My ideas are too good for a thread like this".

But, hey, grats on trolling what could've been a fun thread into the ground. Pat yourself on the back and welcome to my ignore list.

::ignores the needless arguments::

Few would like my server either:

1/2 gravity
No PvP
Random zone invasions on the hour
Random GMs all over the place
No teleportation powers
Every. power. does. KB.
No debt.
No SG rent.

Just to contribute to the OP:

My server would have no team-size requirements for TFs/SFs. I can never get a team together long enough/at the right time/etc. to run TFs. Consequently, after 3 1/2 years here, I have run exactly ONE TF. It was Manticore's, and I couldn't tell you what it's actually about because the team just blazed through it and I didn't get to read ANY of the story, look around, etc. I hate, hate, HATE being locked out of content because I don't play the game 8 hours a day.

My server would have (NPC) Villains running wild all through Paragon, committing crimes, attacking people, trying to push into 'safe areas' (BM, AE, around the trainers, etc). The Heroes would partly be forced to put up a resistance to push them back, having to actively actually fight the NPCs on the street to maintain order.

Based on how much order is maintained in each zone, various new tasks would be opened, as well as the possibility of extra rewards/benefits. The strength (size/difficulty) of the enemies would be proportionate to the server activity, so that what was actually not a push over on Freedom wouldn't be an unstoppable hoard on the smaller servers.

There should of course be a good bit of infighting between the factions, as well as the factions occasionally making truces to combine efforts to fight the other factions (and eventually the truce will break apart and the two sides will split, etc). There should also be a sizable Longbow/PPD presence to assist the players.

The RI would be basically the same situation, with Longbow, Arachnos, Wyvern, and Legacy Chain doing more thematically appropriate things (like the hero groups always being allies, though not always working together). Arachnos would of course always be laying the smack down where every they could against basically everyone.


Think Siren's Call hotspot system, but far more.

1 hour a week would be Madness Hour! With every event that had ever been engineered for CoX blended together and happening at the same time.

Ritki Invasion, Zombie Apocolypse, 5th fighting Council, those critters from the Shadow Shard, presents and snow beasts, frozen lakes, trick or treat, giant monsters, every zone event triggered (fires, raves, etc), and double XP.
