Hello,
I am a 20 year vet returning to E/A Shards from (removed by moderator). I have some great idea's I think would be hits with the players and the creators could make some bank on!!! I know Im sure they're set in their ways but....
1) Stat gump [my stat
On (removed by moderator) players could enter the command [my stat and a gump would appear displaying all the players stats. I get you can see things like ssi, di, luck, resist on the stat bar, But you don't see things like coordinators, stat regen, karma, fame, bandy speed, murder counts, swing delay, stat increase, reflect damage, stables, game time, tithing point, stat increases. This would help players immensely with toon builds as well as char info.
2) Shrink Potions
A HUGE seller on (removed by moderator) was shrink potions.. (I know the concept sounds weird) BUT..
Imagine if you will the ability to summon your pet at any time from your bag.. No more walking with a 5 slot pet. Ride your ethy to your destination bag it and pop out your pet. It was a little blessed vile that had unlimited charges. Soon as you tame a pet, you could shrink it. Was heavy (Stones) but worth it. Once pets were shrunk.. The did suffer a small penalty to stats...
3) PM system
It's 1 thing to have to use external messaging to contact guild members or other players but a very useful tool was a private mail system [pm (Users name) and it would open a message box that the receiver of the message gets an gump indicating they have mail. Makes communication that much better and reliable between players esp doing business trades etc.
4) Bank Stones (Portable & Non-portable)
Bank stones you can place in your house that give you and any visiting players to your house the ability to access their bank accounts anywhere in straight line of sight in a house. Comes in deed form and auto secures upon placement. Portable one stays in players bag and allows bank access only in the players own home. (not accessible by other players)
5)PVP based events / DUAL system
There's a ton of PVM events, what about PVP? Like , single, duo and team tournaments with ranking/ratings. People will know who the best of the best is with the ratings to back it up. Capture the flag, last man standing, WAR on the water (2 ships in the ocean, last team alive) Players could click a stone at the bank w/ a partner or team or other players to enter a que to start the games. Also the command, I challenge thee would bring a toggle, select a person you wanted to dual 1 on 1. Upon accepting, both players would teleport to an arena and fight.. (spectators can enter gate where challenge was made/accepted and watch) No loss of insurance/karma/fame only pride and rating loss.
6) The vendor confusion problem
So many vendors are dead.. (No buy-able items) please make these vendors gray in color so people know not to waste their time sorting thru them cause after 20 boxes/bags.. there's nothing.
7) Dex > Mag shouldn't it be Dex = Mag
This is totally my opinion, but dex seem to be seriously over powered.. Could balance things out by giving pure mages (No weapon) a better fc/fcr to make up for the unbalance. like 4/8.. Just a suggestion..
8) Make game time achievable IN GAME some how..
(Let players volunteer to help noobs or let people IRL advertise for UO game time. Get a free month for every 200 times a UO link is shared on social media or something.. Just a suggestion look at FORTNITE.. Free to play no restrictions, their accessories made them rich.. Get creative with donation items.. dig deep and make people want spend on accessories.. Let them play for free.. It'll bring many people back and donations is where you'd make your bread $$$$. I pay for my account(S)
Thanks for listening to me run my mouth.. Happy hunting and for God sake people.. Stop being afraid of going to FEL. Everything is BETTER IN FEL!!!!!!! Destroy Tram!! <span>
