heyas folks, grave here again for some late night/early morning rambling. Had an interesting thought. They have been trying to come up with an alternative idea for a FRS right? One that allows content for jedi, controls TeF's, and has a true basis inside the game, and also one that is challenging and invigorating to participate in, right? Well, i may be completely off my rocker on this, but i have what i think is an interesting solution. But first off, let see if i understand the problems with the old one first:
a: it was highly exploitable
b: there was little to no content to it
c: the TeF's and everything were all screwy
d: didn't fit with the way the galaxy should have been based roleplay and movie theme wise?
Ok, i wasn't around when the FRS was up and running, or at least i should say i wasn't a jedi at the time, nor was i active in the GCW, so i could be off base a little on those, please feel free to set me straight as id truly like to know. but anyways, without further redo, here is my idea.
The jedi at this time in the game are either A: wiped out, B: in hiding, or C: have turned to the dark side. So, everyone is always screaming about expansions that do very little to affect the actual game play of the universe, so how about this. Create a jedi specific expansion. One that handles both the light and dark side of the force, have a large uncharted area for those who wish to turn to the darkside to wander around in, quests to turn themselves frther and further to the darkside and aquire items that will enhance thier abilities thusly, i.e. cloaks of varying degrees that give greater offense powers and force usage. An end part that is more player based than npc based, where the true users of the dark side can gather, enclave wise, since this is the dark side, thier leader is chosen thru combat. he who can keep the throne rules it. For the light side, have a city, where jedi can run missions as well, with similar yet different cloaks and items won only with defensive abilities. Make it a place for honing skills, where u can stage mock battles and earn rank thru combat yet do it with honor. players who pass thru the gambit amass a community from which the player base elects thier masters, and those elect the one who will over see them all. the TeF would come when you leave the planet, since no planet can survive without trade, and of course this new planet would still have resources and wild life to be harvested by non jedi, the TeF would still be in affect tho perma overt would only be for those who are constanntly using thier skills. a skilled jedi could avoid detection if very careful abou thier powers. BH with a master tag would be allowed access to the planet through thier underworld connections, theyd be able to sneak thier ways in and tho some areas would be off limits and instanced camping could still be done. All around the place could meet the needs of not only the crafters, the jedi, the non jedi population, and the bounty hunters as well. It would allow jedi to gain rank within thier specifications, would pull alot of the constant jedi sightings away, and it would also fit in alot better with the movie plots than what is available now inside the game.
That my idea folks, let me know what you think. if im completely nuts let me know, if you like it show a lil support and who knows, we all know something needs to be done, since they havent been able to come up with an answer maybe we, the player base can, and besides, even soe wins with this one, they get to charge us another 30 bucks for an expansion
