Ok, well good to see more posts, and more ideas! I did infact see your guys' other posts on the second and first blog entries, and again there was alot to cover from what most of you have posted. I have read them, and there are some great ideas there, however like i had mentioned some things just come hand in hand with what exactly it is were creating here, what i really meant when i said we dont need a novel written to get the points across, was basically summed up from what everyones ideas were. There are basically alot of things that just arent key points. I'm not criticizing anyones ideas here, but rather pointing out that alot of the ideas stated were more story driven, or visually driven ideas. We need our meat, too many side dishes, catch my drift lol!

Again everyones ideas were great, but there again most of the details i read come hand in hand with exactly what were looking at here. The idea is, is that i havent gone into much graphic detail just for the main reason that its implimented as the standard game mechanics are laid out. For example, so far we have, catagory uno...

 1. (Nature) Fantasy/Sci-fi Hybrid, with Horror/Survivalistic features. ( This simply put, gives you the entire generalized idea of what it would look like. Ofcourse its 3D, its gotta look realistic to be scary looking! Ofcourse there are mass amounts of real looking blood, blood + gore= fear factor etc.)

Catagory numero dose...

 2. As many races as what the basic storyline could subside with= infinity. ( Another strong point i myself stated was this -->  (*As many things are covered for this specific Catagory, it is still under discussion for now*

     - with that said, there could be much much controversy over many issues, and conflicts between the races. So not to get to far in detail with this subject matter it would infact be set as an RvR type of game. So mainly if anything is to be discussed it would be based upon the battlement type, not so much lore etc. ) Also here it was clear from what everyones basic idea of the races were, was that there should infact be an Evolved human race, whether it was a couple of different ones, whethere they were civilized yet or not, so on, so on. Also that they had crash landed on what is now their new home, which in turn is skirmished with thousands of other alienated habitants. Maybe thats a bit more clear for now.

Trust me ive read all of everyones comments! Without judgement on what i thought was good or bad, its all still been well adjusted to what we have so far. So im sorry if i havent directly quoted or credited anyones ideas, but thats not the point here. The point is again- If your going to eat a meal, you first lay out the dishes (plates, forks, cups, etc.) you then dish out your meat and potatoes, then all the sides, and at this point the crock just got done cooking the stew, and our sides are getting cold hahah!

Catagory numero trace...

 3. Lets face it, a good MMORPG has to have massive scale warfare, especially if its taken place in the future. I sat down for a good 2-3hrs going, you have to have this, you have to have that ( i put to many spices in the stew, and started over several times) LOL. What i renditioned was basically RvR, RvR encorporates all aspects of the games functions, PvE is involved, PvP is even more directly involved, and actual Siege battles are the hunk of Beef Brisket!

 Now ive gotten more input on this soley than any of the other catagories, but thats good, because thats where all of our standing issues lye within every other game we play! RIght? So lets take another look at RvR, many of you state to have MMO"RPG", you have to have RP, and i couldnt agree any more than what you already have! Funny thing is, i think RP shouldnt just be between player and environment or player and player, i think RP in the game should play a key part in RvR. This was introduced in Vangaurd as the first MMORPG to have actual Diplomacy involved in the game, with Diplomacy you can have your cake and eat it! RP is the funnest part in the game, so why shouldnt it be a key part in the games machincs, why shouldnt it have an ecinomical effect on society as a whole, if you have the power in persuasion i think it can be a powerful ally, or the end of society no matter how you look at it, and holy crap i just thought the best i-freaking-dea ive ever thought of..... Imagine a high ranking Diplomat in the game, infact so high, he had the actual power by a voting petition to change actual features in the game?!?!?! Such as, lets say the standards are set,  depending on the economy in the game, maybe the people arent satisfied with what they are dealing with as far as penalties in death, or prices, etc. Maybe with enough votes, this powerful Diplomat has the direct power by petition and enough votes to change the rules a little bit..... Wow i think that would be fantastic, this way things can literally be changed at will, I mean if its not working out, VOTE FOR A NEW STANDARD!!?!? Mainly this is controlled by the gamers point of view anyhow, many complain to the testers, the testers get the go ahead to test some new features etc. then the games patched. I say put it all in there, set a server on default, then away they go, a few moments later you have a bound group of High ranked diplomats that have the ability to change the games standards at will. TALK ABOUT FREAKING RP PEOPLE!!!!

Well so we have it, were not going to get by with out writing a novel LOL, so sorry if ive not finley detailed everyones input into each catagories, but again what im trying to do is sum up each catagory based on everyones opinion, so sorry if its been a lil short. Really i say again though what i mean behind not writing a novel is, if your going to have to write this much to get a point across, do so. But if its your take on the 'story' really thats just getting off topic a bit. But from all of that i would like to hear more opinions on the last catagory, see what other good ideas can give the games economy a sort of 'steering wheel' if you will...
