Siege mechanics need some serious work for one thing. Laying siege to a city is impossibly time and labor intensive.
The belief slider is still in the game. That thing needs to go.
Activities currently are incredibly beneficial to botters versus players actively playing the game. This creates a bot arms race and really sucks for a lot of us.
Combat is pretty silly. Not only is actually getting a kill nearly impossible, fighting someone who actually wants to fight with you involves who has more buckets of water and playing musical chairs. Whether or not that works for you, that's simply poor implementation.
Hunger needs to be reworked so that it doesn't encourage you to dig holes to raise charisma.
Curiosities are sweet but it's time to move on from them as we've learned what we can from them.
It'd be nice if barter stands worked! Just saying.
We need some way to add value to currency beyond their intrinsic metal value or no one but RPers will ever use them.
Animals are dangerous for the first 20 minutes of every world. Their AI needs reworking and they need to be rebalanced. Also more of them.
Resources and the world are way too static right now. The world needs a means of reabsorbing man-made locations that have gone inactive and regrowing itself over time.
etc. etc. etc.

(Personally I'd love it if we could play the game without walls but I don't know if this is viable)

Don't forget there only being three ways to cross a river, we need a fourth!

Things and stuff


You forgot crossroads. Also something that could (and hopefully will) be reworked.

The point was that there are lots of things to fix, improve, remove, and add in Haven. I'm sure everyone has their own laundry list of changes they're waiting/hoping for. Top of the list for a lot of people is probably just regular updates again. =)
It's disingenuous to ask what's broken.

The musical chairs thing, too many memories. Chair combat was a real thing. It needs to be a real thing in all future incarnations of haven. No other game could create such epic meta game content. Life or death fights were won over chairs, lol, gg.

Wait what? You are saying that curiosisites should be replaced??? With what then if we don't want old system and new system?

We're not having that discussion here. The last thing any thread needs is a nightmare clusterfuck. It's a good system but far from perfect for Haven, so it eventually needs a successor is all.

Oh- I thought there was something game breaking. Not something we've had for years... I'd consider those features.
