Jake the Sage Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 As for the stats on your character, we'll use the ones Dante mentioned (Strength, Agility, Constitution (Fortitude only applies to the mind) and Mind), except I think being out of 10 is better. Each stat will start off at being 3 except with one of them starting at two and then you have 12 stats to allocate, with a starting maximum of 8 in any stat. Afterwards, at certain points you'll get stat points to freely allocate. The stats are more for adjusting your build than actual comparison between you and someone else and actual differences should be minimal. Actually Aix I had been giving that some thought. If everyone starts out as three then it's the same as making everyone's stat a 10. You don't get in difference and so it just becomes a normal role play where the battle either goes on until someone quites/gives up or can't think of a way to win without God Modding and/or Meta Gaming. If you make the total "Stat Points Available" 32 then everybody who's interested in playing can "customize" their character to how they see fit. This will make it impossible for anyone to have a completely rounded character with 5 points to each stat and instead make it different for everyone. That way if someone has stronger Strength stats than you, you cannot argue that they are stronger and won't be able to pull something like, "I block your punch" because it would not be possible with your stats.

The Warden Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I suppose the beta thing is fine. We can use it to allow people to get used to what is happening and then when we feel content, we'll open the world up. But if 8 Elemental Cities are too much, then we can most certainly go with just 4. I'd like the Steampunk Earth town, the Underwater Water town and the Musical Wind town to be there. The last town can be volcanic deserty and represent Fire. The other elements can be reprsented by areas near them, like a mountain that suffers from an eternal storm and such. I'm iffy on the resurrected heroes deal, as I feel it squashes creativity a bit. We will screen new apps after all, so we can suggest addendums or flat out deny the more stupid stuff people would try to get away with. I know power abuse quite well, so I can easily see through what some people will try to pull off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I think we'll go with the alien thing cuz there's more room to play around. Pain filters - I think we'll have them be optional, where if you turn them down, you get a stat boost and an experience gaining boost, however, it is a handicap however and you would have to wince or get staggered by pain.

Then there can be smaller cities for other elements. They'll be independent city states. I think I might just start the beta up today when I get back, because it's easier to see what's wrong when we're there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bury the year Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Aiyaaah, at least message me before you start steamrolling everything out, Aix. I had some ideas to this. o-o;; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Aiyaaah, at least message me before you start steamrolling everything out, Aix. I had some ideas to this. o-o;; Yay, Phos. I was actually too lazy and didn't even get started on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted March 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Alright, so who is willing to become a Gamemaster (the term I will be using for those managing the forum-wide)? The Valrune MMO forums are currently hidden now. I have the organization set up, but none of the Database is filled in and stuff like that. Feel free to post in there to discuss ideas once I add you to the Valrune Gamemaster group which lets you see the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
