- create a static wooden idol that would allow you to customize your own quests for the noobs. Your profit: attracting more people into your community center/area/kingdom, the noobs will get a stable income place.
my comments: the idols could have the certain area covered. For instance, an idol will give you 1 q 200 axe for cutting 50 trees and piling them up in that area on a special claim. Or bringing a chest of whateverplants to the claim around the idol.

In fact, the barter stand is described. What is the difference from the same CF (bring a pearl and buy an axe)?

You cannot get your area cleaned or terraformed by the use of a barter stand though.

How do you propose to formalize such quests with less than adding a complete server-side scripting language?

Why do you hate LUA, Loftar?

Not sure how you guys build your quests now though... for example look at email filter builders.
Plus, if you finally officially expose coordinates - it will also be possible to create targeted quests, he he he he.

I remember the old Wow quests form yers ago.. they looked like that:

blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah

Kill 10 spiders in Zone1


P.S. there is a lot of polemics on russian forum.. lots of proposals which are already surfaced in the history of Hafen. The lame part of it is that nobody knows you vision on the game world and for example why this or that idea didn't work out or was rejected.
How do you think - another youtube video may be? ))) Question answering session or something?

Is it different here? O_o

[mdsanta]

Not really Though here guys usually know english a bit better and potentially (lol) read them before posting ( lol x2)


btw, I agree with you on barter stands. Similar. Just had a rough idea to try to make questing customizable also by players.

though amount of complications I came up with is a bit.. not small

Not really

Only if you believe in it (most often people see what they want to see)

Well, for example, you can compare the statistics of forums (number of people, messages, activity, etc.)

That's the problem. Otherwise like idols and local gods and such.
