There have been so many ideas for improving the game floating around lately, some great and possibly achievable, some just wth A lot of these ideas have been centred around the need for more balanced gameplay, instead of just parties, putting a focus on war and PvP. I agree, it's unfair that PIMD has become a 'pay-to-play' game, with those who don't cough up the cash falling behind. On the other hand, you'd have to be pretty naive to expect ATA to stop wanting to make profit. Sooo, to address the war and PvP situation, this is my idea There should be an item, like a Golden Ticket, or Gladiator Pass (or something less corny :lol: ), which unlocks a premium Campus War. The item can be purchased for a reasonable amount, like 10-20ec, or can be won as a rare drop from parties AND PvP battles. Once activated, it will last 12 hours (enough time to do both campus wars on weekends). The premium war it unlocks should pay double plunder, and drop exclusive items for all participants, like the dart guns, but with a higher stat boost, say 10/10 instead of 1/1. Maybe even a 10% higher bonus payout for the winning team, or even a chance to score another war pass.. This idea is kinda underdeveloped, but I think you get the idea.. ATA would still make profit from sales of the item, but having it drop from PvP battles would add spice to the game. Plus having premium wars with double plunder and other benefits would make things more balanced game-wise.. Thoughts/problems/criticism?
Go Ahli! Actually, if you give me time to get home, I'll pm you some more ideas ? I'm at work right now.
Thanks Jo! I'm thinking that having item drops from PvP might not be achievable, as they haven't done it yet, but I'd still kinda like to see it.. Buying the items, and having a war pay double shouldn't be too difficult, though it would depend on levels of interest vs time/costs to get it going
I agree, Gordo, I don't know why there aren't more wars And this idea came out of nowhere while writing the other thread, Sadistic
? I have the same issue chubby. Sundays are not beneficial to me in the slightest! But neither are Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays ?
It's a bad idea because for me, the sunday and monday wars don't exist, I've never seen them. That mean these war are on around 1am to 5-6am, I sleep :|
war timings should be for people around world! I was unable to join more than 1 weekend war! because 1st war starts at 1am my time and 2nd war at 5am my time and that time im in deep sleep lol
I agree with you both, Kaname and Manny, there should be more diversity in the war timing.. For this idea to work, they'd need to either adjust the times for wars, or add more..
I can't see why not either, Julie! The only reason stopping them would be numbers, maybe there aren't enough people to warrant daily wars. But I think with a bit more incentive, that could easily change. War is crazy fun, but I think those who haven't warred think they'll be missing out on other things, so don't go.. What if it were the other way around, and not warring was missing out?
Also the war audience seems to have grown with the fc & gaw players joining us. Maybe the numbers weren't there when wars began to have more than 2…but now I bet we're getting closer
I like the idea. It's interesting. Offers variety. Personally I'm not a fan of making a person pay for a more rewarding war, I believe that if ATA did what people wanted they would WANT to spend money and not feel like they HAVE to. But that's just me. Along with the idea of better war times, in the past ATA has commented on availability given their location however there are certain games that offer events like this throughout a 24 hour period. I'm curious about why this hasn't been implemented.
