Weighted Clothing, Shards and stuff

[eramthgin]

Weighted clothing is pretty useless on the game, I think it needs a tune up. Why not use it to improve Shadow Sparring? More exp, more tp gains. Not with any other training method because you can just AFK does. Players should be rewarded for erm...actually playing. Also it could increase the EXP gain FROM kills, players and npcs. At the same time everything good should do something bad. It should lower your speed by 4(?), skill%(25 less) and your current stats by a certain amount. The increase from killing should be worth the penalties as it would be harder to accomplish and increases your chances of death.

Shards...specifically the stat based ones should be taken out. We already have enough boosts in the game and transes to worry about. Its use brings the same result if both players have them on, the outcome will be the same. Maybe have them as a permanent tiny boost, as a dropped item or something.

Shards...again, but EXP and TP ones. This can be used one after the other if you have them, which is kinda stupid. Why not limit it to 1 of each and just raise the boost?

Events...we should have them. Kinda like tournies but with NPCs and hard to do, aka timed invasions or an Original NPC that is hard to defeat? You can test for lag but the server if efficient as it is.

World tournament price and loser price. WT price for TPs is beyond laughable, its 10k Points. WT is every 2 hours. The price should be around the 200k range. The losers should get atleast 150, and there should be a runner up price of maybe 250 levels.

Baba Tournament losers should get a higher boost, 500.

Killing spree system, The more you kill the lower your exp reward will be. But when killed, the higher your death will bring also. This should work by killing npcs also. You add up your current kills and when killed or if you relog they go back to 0. Suicide shoudnt give you anything and killing yourself with an alt shoudnt be allowed.

Alt killing yourself check, on death check, check if mobs have same IP and all that info. If so, announce it to the world. And punish.

The weighted clothes exp and tp increaser for "actually playing" part is a good idea. Will be working on that asap. I also believe it should as well decrease your speed by that amount and skills as well. I can't tell if I should decrease the stats... are you saying by cutting the transed form's multipliers or the base itself?

Shards aren't permanent, so you shouldn't worry about it. Plus, I can make it limited to one use until one of these shards wears off after the cool down period.

As for WT, I'm not going to change on TP gains - a gain from a tp is bearable enough, so I'm leaving it as is.

I believe you're correct about losers part: It's seemingly unfair as the winner get 500 boost and losers get 50 boost. I'll be bringing it up to 150. As well as for baba tournament, which I'll be bringing it to 500.

I'll be working on these asap I have time.

You know cutting the transed multipliers is actually a good idea. By half or more.


About WT tp gains well 10k is berable you say. But its not much of a reward. Its like the rest of the prices. Its nice to see the options but not good enough to use it. It will 99% be used on levels. Maybe 200k is too much for most. But its really 2 hours of SS training.

[Razor]

For a side note: WT only gives out 1k tps, which I agree was really low. I've just increased it to 10k tps as prize option.

But, I can go as far as 50k, if you believe it is ideal.

[eramthgin]

I thought it was 10k cause i tested today and i think thats what I got but ok.

As a measure, I test alot so SS for 2 hours non stop high speed no life determination is alil over 200k gains. DT for an hour is like 20k-30k gains, no shards used. But its true, thinking more about it 200k is quite alot just for winning. 50k sounds good i guess. Your pick, but 10k is way too low =D


Another idea. What about a Junior(?) World Tournament, for players level 9999 and below. Winner gains are as the usual WT and it comes up every 90 mins. That way players get to experience most of the game, faster. The price tho, would be only levels. You dont want campers <.<

[Razor]

Actually, the idea of having lv9999 or lower to join Junior world tournament is pretty sick idea. And it'll occur every hour, which will make it even more fun and active.

As for levels winner and loser rewards, I'm thinking along 250(as it occurs every hour) for winners and 125(half of 250, ideal eh?) for losers.

I'm also considering increasing speed of rounds in WT, similar to that of BT.

Looks good to me.

alright, your ideas sound great, but in all honesty there not really needed, i mean the games easy as is :/ maybe if they made the game harder i may consider playing DDR more often

[eramthgin]

The game is easy to level if you have access 24/7 and AFK train and only show up for some tournies. But for the players that actually play, they can stand out a bit more or reach those that really dont play and just DT forever. The game isnt hard, its time consuming, even more if you just AFK all the time.

The current improvements make the game easier for players to enjoy and get to see what the game has to offer. Other things that could be done are, improving the Game Guide and making it very OBVIOUS that there IS one, too many players dont check and those are the ones who ask too many simple questions and dont know were to start.

And in the end, its not about difficulty or ease. Its about making the game fun. Improving whats there and adding a bit more to it. As it is, its still the best DBZ fan game out there.
