Do you know what S T A R T L E V E L S are? It something you put players in while you test your NPCs. You know why you make NPCs offline, such as custom enemies? To impress PW people, show them what you will have when online. To hard to understand? Then oyu have already failed on your PW...

startlevels were good at first thought, but bad when looking further. I said before, new pw's get the most players when it goes up first, which is when they should have cool stuff up to draw players, but if all they have is start level to contain them, no one will come, they'll say for a sec and leave. but if the staff have had a while to work on something to release, then they will keep some\most of the players that come to check the new world out.

Make all your scripts offline! Impress the PW Testers, show them what you will have...online, just rebuild the scripts. Don't want players to see? Put up start levels! Put in a title screen! So many other options, the one you people are thinking up are narrow minded...
As for what Lycia said, don't mkae me laugh...

lazyness? EXACTLY! many of the current testing worlds get lazy because of lack of intrest. and cant go down because they are a full pw and follow standard rules.. they lose intrest because of no players coming, they feel no one cares, and probably no ones does.
to fix this, stefan should offer PRIVATE testing worlds where only staff of the p2p world can go and play on. no.. im not talking about things like 2k2 is right now, where you can go on as ghost mode, im talking about how 2k2 was before, on a private server, where no one could see it but people working on it.
my suggestion, is setting up private servers, and makign it so the p2p level required is higher than normal p2p acc's, and then the only people that could be allowed on the worlds are ones with staff accounts, since staff accoutns are allowed on the world they are made for.
but since they are testing worlds, they should be reviewed for progress, so they dont stay up and slack like frolic and andor do. and can be removed if they dont do the right work, this will prevent slacking. |
