[For Migration - Experience and leveling system]

IF YOU LOOK AT THE THREAD VOTE IN THE POLL!

Ok, there are a couple ways we could do this.

Number 1: You have an overall combat level not effected by your skills.
Your skills are preset for each class you choose, no other class has your skills,your combat level has its own experience.
Each time you gain a combat level you gain 1 skill point and (lets say 5) attribute points
You put your skill point into your choosen class specific skill, and your atrribute points into the base stat (Every character has the same attributes but different skills).

Or

Number 2: The basic system. All skills are the same for each person. Experience is gained by kill or by activity done. (Runescapes System)

Or

Sythes Experience System

 

For the least trouble, which, at the making and releasing of a new game, the runescape system is the way to go.

For Number one, it has a good idea about it, giving more variety and choice. It would though, be hard to mantain all the classess, they would have to be equal in overall skill (how much exp and such they give), and when updates happen, they'll have to be seperate for every class, and every skill they posesses. Where as with the runescape system, its easier, everything is applied to everyone.

The sythe idea is very, very interesting I have to say. I definitley agree with the last part, saying than monsters drop items and stuff, be it occassionaly or not, as that'll give a good incencitive to get their ass on and do it.
The xp system could work, it is decently thought out and with a little more thought and checking, it could do well with problems avoided. However, I would have to feel quite sorry for the coder, or coders it would have to be.

 

Jesus, you put alot of thought into that I must say you have a good idea for all of them and what would happen if we chose them...

 

sythe's one, you should be able to play like a playstation game, but mmo style.

 

I dont know what you mean by a playstation game but sythes idea is very interesting

 

Ah, you confused me. >.> I picked system 2 accidentally. Can you put 'system 3' in parenthesis next to Sythe's Experience system?

 

i would say system 2 ( runescape ) Ther is not enough games like runescape that are good. they all follow lineage and WoW.

 

I'd say a system like sythe's, but a bit easier. We still want smaller kids playing this.
PS. Mike I live a hour away from you wooooo

 

Sorry that i have not been on latelly but i would dfinentlly like more people to look into this guide becuase it has ideas which are very interesting and can be used for a game and the ideas are very worthy too... especially for sythes idea which is a perfect system for a new game...
