Thoughts about a new “battle station”, given some improv realizing FC isn’t likely to do anything dramatic. So all thoughts of FC coding anything heavy goes out the window. However, a few bowl packs later, I realized a perfect instance and a whole new way to PvP.
First, some quick thoughts about pvp, and what some people generally do and do not like.
1. People complain it’s unbalanced.
2. Roots/Zoning/Blinds/”Cant find target”
3. Bor PvP and all its shenanigan’s
4. Titles/Statistics
5. Popularity/skilled
So with this in mind, I propose that the Second floor (Fire Floor, some consider it the first) should be promoted to the new “battle station” in anarchy online. With a few exceptions and rules I think it would really ****e up the AO Community. Let’s face it, we like depth and a challenge. I think both the flames and the nano’s both propose a perfect match. The nanos should stay the same, and the flames should kick in just as they do now but after 5 mins into the duel to propose some kind of “deathmatch”.
I think it should live interface (much like the way LFT works, just added a “pvp” tab) and 3 players or under, or all or any, I really haven’t thought of a good number, but 3 does stand out. I also would suggest the addition to allowing people to log their stats win/loses in the “DB3 Duel room” just the same as other stats do now. We could even ask as far as “PvP org/groups” that they can join and leave from, to present a social stat for people recognize. This would stir the pvp pot quite a bit and give a few professions a chance to shine. I’ll leave it at this, I honestly just wanted to plant the seed.
I hope that FC reads this, and the other comments and might adopt the idea, and if they do, I suggest a “on person” gui that players can freely Q up from, much like LFT.
Please Add! This could plausibly be integrated fairly quickly considering FC wouldn’t really have to “code” anything heavy and it would be a blast! Please discuss and add your ideas!
