Ideas for Bomy Island.

[gravator]

Since myself, and probably many others are sad that this server is still being worked on, i thought i might try to offer an idea or two for it.



First idea: Make the graphics, bodies, and most of the items into the style of graal kingdoms, just make the very same map layout as it used to be only in 3D.


Second idea: Ask stefan if he would have time for it someday, maybe stefan will read this himself, and get help from him to complete the server a little sooner than expected, maybe even get that high quality feeling added to it if he does help. (oh man i'm a big dreamer aren't i?)


Ok, that's all i thought about since last night, donning my flameproof suit now.

I don't believe that this would work out too well. The bodies that are on Kingdoms and Zone are too different in style from what Graal2001 has ever had, and I don't know about anyone else but personally I feel the classic-styled bodies are much more visually appealing as well. The current bodies on the server are an advanced version of the classic bodies, split into various different parts for added customization, which is a large part of what Graal2001 was always about. Here's an example that was posted a while ago.

I spoke to Stefan quite a while ago about helping out with the server, but apparently he's too busy with his projects such as Zone and the iPhone games to dedicate the amount of time we need to get this done. It is a shame though.

I appreciate people posting ideas as I don't like being the only one who is coming up with things. This way is a lot better than people just sitting and whining

1- make different kind of butterflys to go with the Net you made(i like butterflys<3)

2-make a mini game system like classic but more in the "game boy pocket" style

idk if there events made , but ill make somes if you need !

the bodies that have been developed for the new server are, in my opinion, like the classic bodies but way more complex. and way more fit for the server than graal2k2 bodies.

A few more ideas came to me today, not sure if they CAN be added if people like the idea or not, or if they would even help the server at all or fit in with any current plans.



I don't know what the economy will be like such as the types of jobs there will be, what each job will pay and how many there will be planned, but perhaps something for the clothing changes, since we know the bodies will be very customizable for everyone, maybe a fee of 100 gralats for changing the look of one part? Like 100G to get a coat changed from red to blue, and another 100G to change it again to green, same with belt/shoes/gloves/sleeves? It was just an idea to keep the economy in check to a small degree and keep people from getting so rich that the poor players cry for a reset, because i doubt people will change their looks 50+ times every day and if they want to they better make a good decision about what look they want.





I was looking through the hats folder and figured a similar plan with certain hats, during the holidays like saint patricks day or christmas, you can make special theme hats available for that day/week/month (whatever you like) for 100 gralats and allow only one per account, and when the holidays is over the hats are gone till next year. (removed from account, deleted from inventory type deal)




Playerhouses, not sure if anything like that will be brought back or not, but if they are, limit how much gralat can be stored in the chests. (another small mesure to keep the economy from going to heck)



And my last idea that someone mentioned a long time ago (2002 long ago) is some form of tax system! A weekly/monthly tax on people with more that X ammount of gralats with them so they don't just stockpile money (economy check idea yet again) so the more money you do have, the harder taxes will hit you at the end of the week/month.



I read also that bomys, not having hats have wanted something for looks also, so why not little wagons they can pull behind them? Little red wagons, mini trailers, and all sorts of ideas can be thought up i'm sure, and if the bomy finds themselves in the water, a little inflatable raft appears under the wagon thus saving it from water damage!



That's all i thought about while i was browsing the older posts in the forum, feel free to talk about the ideas posted here whenever you like, for now i will go to wear my fireproof suit.
