I haven't been playing much in the past month or so but I been reading forums every so often regarding new things, but I never see any thing new, just complaints about the shard. With so many threads being purely complaints and/or flames maybe we should change a few things like on a trial basis? Maybe 1 or 2 weeks with the changes just to see how things go and if people like it. We could vote on the changes to be made or something.
I really think PVP should be easier to get into, I mean this game is old and people are getting tired of the repetition, maybe make the PVP skills pretty easy to get [it is going to happen anyway, whats the difference if you GM Swords in 6 hours rather then 16 or so?]. Maybe a bit easier to get gold and resources, etc.
I don't really know *what* needs to be changed but something definately needs to be changed from the drop in playerbase, morale, interest, etc.

I agree with you about everything you said in that post. I do also believe that too hard skillgain could cause players to "give up" before even trying out the fun stuff. An easier skillgain for some PvP skills would probably help out a lot. :]
Galens Wrote:dont bother, they aren't listening
What are you talking about Galens. When have we ever NOT listened? We listen very much and we care A LOT about your opinions as players. It is after all you who will be playing at our shard. Don't confuse
"not listening" with
"not being able to do anything about it", like for example the PvP that we can not change in drastic ways without breaking the merge agreement.
As you could see I just listened and agree'd with Slaquer on everything he said in that post, now how is that "not listening" ? I also spent more than six hours last night LISTENING to your suggestions to change the PvP, and explaining to you why it would not be possible to do at IN-X, now how is THAT not listening?
Regards,
Hate

It might be because of the following.
Poison still does not work. Loot templates are still horrible. Elvens are still hardcore.
I feel the some of the above topics need to be fixed to make players happy because they are looking for something new or something to work. To fix elvens is to simply fix the damage. Fixing loot templates isn't difficult either, just time consuming. Poison, could be easy, could be a pain, I don't know. But I think it's simply the point that these things haven't been fixed yet, even though they might take anywhere from 5 minutes to max 2 hours.

Poison doesn't do much in IN/XUO pvp, don't think it will anytime soon, I am talking about things like the Elven bow, the loot etc, but I think we all know the issues and everyone's opinions etc, I was making the post to recomend that we do a trial period with some mutually agreed on changes as players and see how it goes for a week or so, what do the staff and Taran think about this in particular?

Well I was just saying that some things that piss off players aside from the PvP is the small things. I understand that poison might not be of any use in UOX pvp, BUT it is extremely useful for PvM. Why should only focus on PvP?
