Bawf's Game Ideas/Suggestions
« on: August 02, 2019, 05:54:13 pm »
My Ideas
Ideas that I have that I don't recall have been brought up or brought up enough.


Ideas added: 02/08/2019

Doubling chat character limit
Basically giving people more room to type so they have more space to work with for different reasons listed in the pros.

Pros:
•   More space to work with when posting advertisements.
•   More space to work with if Moderators need to use godspeak (red text).
•   More space to work with when explaining to/helping users in-game.
•   It will be less restricting in general.
•   This isn't really a lot to ask for.

Cons:
•   More room for spammers, but that's what moderators are for I s'pose.


Map dots for group members
Just like we have map dots for buddies/friends online, why not do it for group members too?

Pros:
•   Easier to locate your group members in maps.

Cons:
•   None to list.


Doubled/tripled group and character bio character limit

Pros:
•   Group organisations and/or role-plays could use more space in their group bios for providing more information for their group.

Cons:
•   None to list.


Scars that aren't markings
Having different scar variations that can be added on top of markings would be pretty sweet instead of having to rely on markings to do this.

Pros:
•   Variation.

Cons:
•   None to list.


Selecting more than one marking on body parts
As well as being able to alter the colour of each marking. I love variation and I can see some pretty interesting looking characters coming out of this.

Pros:
•   Variation.
•   Unique characters.
•   Generally fun.

Cons:
•   May need a whole re-vamp of the character creation.



Ideas added: 04/08/2019

Fur texture options
Fur texture options within the character creator. (Idea submitted by a user who wants to remain anonymous).

Pros:
•   People can see what other user characters are really supposed to look like in terms of fur texture detail. For example, a domestic cat's fur isn't really the same as a big cat's fur.
•   Again, gives people variation.

Cons:
•   Tracking inactive users down who have made popular fur textures, asking if they wanted or are okay with having their textures submitting to the game etc. Not impossible but tricky.


In-game item 'glitch'
Possibly to end the 'glitch' people have with items (i.e. users seeing different items on users that aren't their equipped items without needing the same item pack). Or, just generally improving the items side of the game in general if that can't be something that can be fixed. I understand this was more of an issue before the legendary packs but we might as well eliminate the problem.

Pros:
•   The issue will be gone and people will generally be happy.
•   Users who look majestic will no longer see applejack hats in their friend's screenshots.

Cons:
•   None to list.


Better syncing
I'm talking about when a character moves, or even spins. Have it better synced like IT did. Maybe even fix this issue:



Sorry not sorry Ringo LOL

Pros:
•   Better experience.
•   Less awkward.

Cons:
•   None to list.




Other Ideas
Other ideas that I strongly agree on and would also like to see implemented.

Honestly, I don't see any real cons. Thanks for bringing up these suggestions! I've also had similar ideas in my head for a while now.
On a side note, thank you for supporting the game improvements I've suggested. It's much appreciated. +floof

I love the scar idea. That'd allow more variation in scars beyond what the regular scar marking has to offer, too, and other games have this feature already, so it's certainly not impossible.

Great list of ideas, I pretty much agree entirely.

Thank you for the suggestions, Buffy!
Gosh, the chat character limit was always something that’s been bugging me more so than the biography or group character limit (can’t remember which one it was). I hope the limit is increased to at least the same amount we have now, I think that would be pretty perfect.
I’d love to have map dots for group members in possibly the same green color as the group chat. It’s definitely something I’d find useful. The only con to this would maybe be a mess that would happen if a group has a lot of members online plus if you have a lot of friends online at the same time (it could get very cluttered if you’re all at the same place).
I think the idea of having the option to pick scars that aren’t markings is pretty neat, although I myself wouldn’t use it but I’m sure many other users would find that helpful for role playing.
I think one of the IT servers has the option to pick more body markings so that would be really great and fun!

Thank you for the input and thanks for adding links to my and others ideas as well!
I hope to see replies from Staff to some of these suggestions as well~

Thank you for putting this together! I'm totally behind everything that's been said so there's not much to say, here. This must have taken a long time and thinking and it was so kind of you to share all of this with us. I hope the staff will look over our suggestions as well (the entire communities). <3

All fantastic ideas! Especially the increased character limits. It would make roleplaying so much easier. +floof

oooooo, I would love to see multiple markings per body part. And doubling the chat character limit would make it easier for people to get long roleplay posts out, since they won't have to split their text into multiple posts. These are all very good suggestions!

Nice suggestions! The only problem could be how much data/memory is used up by the extra features. I'm not sure how much wiggle room we've got to add some of that stuff, but I'd love to see them added.

Plus map portal markers on the map maybe? Sorry if that was already suggested somewhere and I'm dumb.
