I have been following the debates over a way to fix KAW's current economic problems and I have come up with a couple base ideas that are by no means perfect in any way, but I feel like they would provide at least some alleviation to the problem. PLAYER HOUSES / CASTLE CUSTOMIZATION This would provide something for players to buy that would get rid of money, while also being completely aesthetic. Players could purchase furniture and decorations for the insides of their houses. They could also display their favorite achievements as banners in the main hall. These houses would provide another way for players to get rid of money. Eventually, players could invite each other to these homes where that could get their own closed chat room and could admire the riches of their friends. You may think that this idea is completely taboo to the current nature of the game, but I believe player houses would provide a new dynamic that would not only alleviate some of the current economic distresses of the game, but they would also be really enjoyable to build up. AVATARS My second idea is the inclusion of player avatars that players could take to their friends' new houses. These avatars could be customized with either the equipment that can currently be earned in the game, or they could wear outfits and equipment that could be purchased from the marketplace. Once again, the avatars will be completely aesthetic and will provide no bonus besides awesomeness. Neither of my ideas are perfect solutions for the problem at hand, and I think that there is no perfect solution. All I know is that players spend gold on two predominant things: allies and buildings. By providing these new features, players would have more to work towards besides just building up power (endlessly). I understand that these would be no small projects and would take much time to accomplish, but as I said, they are not perfect solutions. Another thing is that they would bring a lot more to the game and would provide a more immersive social experience. There are so many other options that could branch off from my ideas, and I just want to help solve the problem. These are both just really base ideas that have so many possibilities and options that the devs could turn into something really amazing. Thank you for reading my ideas and I really hope that I have contributed to the solving of this problem. Ultimately, it is the devs' who decide how to solve the problem, but I think that these ideas are definitely viable options.
Don't just say no support, that doesn't help the thread or anything, he put his time into this thread to write all this, you typing two words is almost an insult to him. If you say no support say why and critique or add on to his ideas
because he didn't give credit to spankenstein or i, after just grabbing ideas from our threads and adding a dash of the sims? also...his idea is to turn kaw into the sims.
In other words, according to you, I was using your own ideas, yet you do not support them? I was inspired by your thread, but you only mentioned external castle customization and colors for other things. In my idea, I talked mainly about internal improvements and customizations. You also never said anything about avatars that could visit castles or homes. Also, at what point did I ever say anything about the sims? That is a comparison to my idea because of the house customization, but i do not envision anything nearly that advanced. Last time I checked, the sims is not fantasy-themed, an online mmo, or nearly as awesome as KAW. Also, you can take all of the credit for MY ideas if you want, but I'm going to tell you something. I don't care who gets credit or anything. I just want to see these ideas implemented within the game. I want the game to improve. I like it, I really do, but it needs some changes like these. So, wordWASTER, I think that we have both wasted enough words. I just want to see these ideas, regardless of whoever wants credit for them, implemented.
here's the thing. my idea was minor cosmetic stuff. relatively simple in terms of implementation. you are talking about a whole new castle builder sim added onto kaw. its too much. and i never said you said sims. i said sims. because...its the sims. i used to like the sims, btw. i'm not knocking the sims.
oh btw, i was assuming you would get the "humor" of me saying "no support" to an idea that was obviously inspired by my thread. you didn't. so...lolz. love how chippy you got though. :lol:
What I envision is not nearly as advanced as the sims. You just get to arrange some furniture and decorations in your castle. It would take some work from the devs, but what I envision is not nearly as advanced as you might think it is.
Support I believe these ideas are plausible and would like to see something along these lines implemented.
