New world.

[myth-simba]

Isn't it time we expanded the playing fields? I mean once you git 5.9 speed you can pretty see it all in about 20 minutes.

Why not create 1 level which is completely ocean from the outskirts of the server and then another level past it with more ocean and maybe a big island... islets.. or some with none..

Only way to new islands is to get your own ship as no ferrys go there.

its just dumb the way the layout is... Every level has an island on it...its dumb.. you pretty much kill the fun of sailing and exploration. Levels should be more random, (new ones) with some levels with islands and some without. Experiment and make new terrain such as a volcanically active island with lava tiles home to the red heavils and other bad things.

Some islands with villages like main island and island roaming monsters and quests. A new hangout for the more experienced players as more experienced monsters and lords appear. I'm just really bored of the same levels and monsters. And you wonder why everyone has gone to WoW lol.

Because there sure isn't any room on the current islands to add new stuff.

Kingdoms needs development improvement, correct. The magic update was a huge update, which was nice, besides the overpowering of the magic, which was fixed, but it was nice to have nice effects for the magic spells, I guess it made the world a bit more real for what is paid.

Other than that, I agree, as I said, Kingdoms needs development improvement. Though, I don't know what else can be put on the current islands and overworld. Getting town to town on the main island overworld isn't hard, it doesn't take much time to get to those places. It's not like I have to travel through a forest with a lot of paths to get there, which would be cool. That's a solution though. As people said, Kingdoms needs new maps. Maps that are both close and far from the main island overworld and islands for kingdoms. Perhaps islands which take some time to get to from boat, then other places can be reached travelling with groups of people, whether friends or kingdom members. That's what's needed, well, I think so. I think that what should be focused upon. If a suggestion wants to be made, I think it's better to tell Bjoern, Sam, or Stefan in private, through forum private message or GraalOnline Support Center, for one reason, it'll be something added to the game as an update, a surprise, rather than waiting for people to expect it. I mean, serious, think Kingdom leaders need Debug to develop their own Kingdom? To some extent, right, but other than that, I don't think current Kingdoms need to develop more, but go back to the aspect of being active within their own kingdom, to keep kingdoms going.

I for one know that Stefan has some plans for Kingdoms, which will be a huge improvement to the world which is paid for, though I do see where people are coming from, because I know small improvements throughout the week is better than a big improvement throughout months.

Of course, I'm wondering, on a serious note. I've requested Stefan to add support to the terrian GMAPs (which I won't mention what options, but it'll be nice) to alter Kingdoms a bit, alternations that will add new maps to Kingdoms, such as beaches, caves, forests, etc. (won't name other special maps because it'll ruin effects and surprises), but what would like to be seen on these new maps? Like, I understand new items will be nice to have, but what else? I think other things should be added, perhaps things that will encourage ROLEPLAYING! Whatever though, but if someone has ideas on what can be added, new quests, or whatever it could be, just state it here or in private, it'll be nice to hear opinions on what is wanted. I know it's been mentioned in other threads, but this seems like a serious discussion, so it should be taken somewhere.

That's why he suggested adding new ones =/

Some staff were thinking of building GK into a 3x3 gmap grid.

Each island is effectively a "gmap"

NPC Code:

---

------------

|   |Z  |F  |

| D| M | S |

|   | CP|   |

So theoretically, something like this, though I'm not sure what would be in the other squares.

Chris, you're famous for your ideas, some are pretty damn amazing, but i'd just like to see some like this done o.o
