House

toby132006

1. Make your own house in this...with your own land.

I think this will be a good idea because I'll like to get away in the game sometimes and relax in the house i made in the game...or invite few friends over and have a party, game room, races, chiken in a pool or stream u made, ect...

By the way thier is no limit of the amount of people that can come to your house.

It will be cool if you can have monsters their too and have your own leveling area maybe...

To tell you the truth I saw you can make a house on google, but when I went on PWI I didn't see anything about that...so yeah i think it will be a good idea to make that...

2. Being able to make Male vemo and Female barbarian.

Male venos totally contradicte Chinese myth, as werefoxes are basicly an all female race. And s for female barbarians, they are just unheard of in the myth. I doubt they will ever change it.

Added House Idea to Suggestion Compilation thread

Love the house idea

Don't have a problem with barb/veno as they are though.

toby132006

Thank you for your support =].

I just wanna add 1 more idea to the house idea, the house wont have ot be a cs iteam and the 1st house you get for each character can be free and if u want tp expand land u can either earn in-game money for it, or buy an expansion of your house or terroritry through cs. Also each iteam will have a decent price so you can buy it with in-game money. For example, a chair can be 500-2k. Also you can get more then one house but the 2nd house or 3rd, 4th, ect... you'll need to pay for that one.

I hope you will like this part of the house idea =]. If not...I'll just delet this post then...

there was a housing option but PWE took it away (too lazy to see if this was said)

toby132006

By the way, this is the area where I saw the housing system...

Salex - Heavens Tear

yes definately

Zehethos - Heavens Tear

I think the housing idea would be a great addition to the game. The only problem is a few things:

1. Were do we build our houses? Can we build on Cliffs?
2. How do you add features? Will there be a person who sells basic House stuff or you have to buy on item mall (Hope not)
3. Can any level build a house? (I hope so)

Other than that, I like the suggestion! I'm gonna give it a 9/10.

Dannlyn - Lost City

>D love the house idea though your suggestions seem a little excessive (the own leveling area bit) LOL would be really cute to have your own garden and backyard where your pet can run around in ^_^

would it seem better and more realistic if the house is not protected from aggros? or will the house be surrounded by a safe zone?

1. You get to pick the scenry, and if a cliff is an option then yes

2. You buy it at your house option menu, or NPC, or auction house, and yeah ,aybe item mall.

3. Yes.

You get to make whats the safe zone and whats not a safe zone, or maybe their might not be agros...

Just to let you guys know I'm not a moderator and I dont know what they are thinking, this is just what I'm suggesting to put, but they may put it differently.

Also if you have any sugeestions about the house idea or anything you wanna change, feel free to post =].

Houses to Own

Actually it would be very simple to have housing. Such housing exists in some MMORPGs.
The way it is done, is simple.

There would be a tavern with doors, each door having an address for a mail-box and separate, House-Instance.

That's right, houses are instanced.

Not only could there be a tavern in the main cities, but there could be houses spread throughout the world; once again, these houses would be an instance.

These country houses would have a limit to how many players for each House-Instance owned. A maximum of 10 players to own the same House-Instance; which means, ten separate owners of the same House-Instance. If there is not an opening at a house, then you will have to find a house that has an opening. If a player leaves a house, then that opening becomes available.

Perfect World could use Zen as a way for players to purchase houses. Use Zen to Upgrade houses, buy furniture for houses, etc.

This way, Perfect World developers win, and the players win. It's a win/win situation.

We get our houses, and Perfect World get's us to purchase Zen.

There could also be Guild Forts. Maybe even have PvP Guild Fort vs. Guild Fort. Once again this would all be instanced.

On a side note, I really think that Perfect World looks absolutely beautiful.

The End.

Just a minor addition to all of this, just for kicks, what if players could choose a door where their houses exit? I mean, a large fee of coins rather than Zen as well as a 24 hour wait period to do so (to avoid free teleports), but here's the kicker. Have a possible house exit... be the guild forts the players belong to! Therefore everyone in the guild has access to the fort from their own house.

Also, I think a good way to enter someone's house would be to give either a one-time or a lifetime slip to someone so they can access the house from a drop-down menu of houses they can enter. In any case, this is a great idea and, if I get into this game more, I might be willing to buy Zen for something like this.

kisaraven

I like ideas of back doors.

The developers of Perfect World need a way to make an income too. If we want houses, then they need to benefit too.

The ONE Feature I forgot to post: House Owner Control.

House Owner Control

Open House [option]
Friends Only [option]
Private [option]

Be kind of awkward if you enter someones home and the girl you like or the girl character your character likes, is kissing some guy. :eek: Or for you guys that like girl kissing girls :P

So players control the door.

Also.

This feature could be implemented. To convert your House into a Shop.

We already see characters as cute Cat Shop Signs, but for those characters to actually have a shop, would be fun. And it would free up the clutter of characters standing around as a Cat Sign. I would rather go to a shop owned by a player then to just stand next to this Cat Sign. Once again, a Zen thing. Trust me, the developers want you to buy Zen, to keep the game "Free" - I am guessing that if people don't buy Zen, then eventually there probably will be a small server fee. I myself recently purchased Zen. It's all about perks and upgrades. Right.

The End.

The only way i see this happening is if they introduce a residential zone, you would literally enter the zone and warp directly to your house, this means your house or anyone else house would not be visible from the outside, but only from the inside if and when you invite people in. This method is actually used in the game Final Fantasy Online and works really well.

But all i can say is "I WANT A HOUSE TOO!"

toby132006

Lol well thank you for you suggestions =]. I support those 100%.

Darcangel - Heavens Tear

The housing thing is what got me to start this game and to find out that it isnt gonna happen makes me said but i like the idea about it though and i think that they should really consider doing it ........and i like the warping thing better then having a bunch of houses around the land i think it would be better if the was a place in a city where there was a warp Zone for going to your house and when u entered it you would only go to you house ....but i think a good option to be able to go to other peoples house would be like a friends list but for people that were aload in your house Zone .....soo for example if someone invited me to be able to go to there house when i entered the warp Zone for house i would get a drop dwn menu and would pick to enter my own house or the other players that invited me to be able to come to there house.....another option that would be nice if u could have the option to only let people in your house only if your in the house or only when ur on line and even have the option to let people that u trust in your home whenever they wanted weither your r online or not ......these r my own suggestions but i would like to see the housing system com alive i would more then likely pay Zen to get a house....i would suggest paying only for your house Zone in Zen and then paying for things and items for house by in game cash or even being able to do quests to get items or up-grading anything.........

I support housing being put back in.

So daekara, they actually found a way to let you visit other people's houses in FF? Last I heard it was mostly just something to to pass the time, and that decorating your house was for nobody's enjoyment but your own. Everybody goes in the same door, but it's their house and not somebody elses. How does the summoning thing work in FF?

Anyway I agree with those that said the area with houses should be instanced. If you were allowed to make a house anywhere, with so many people playing, all you'd see is houses. Reminds me of Trickster, but those are packup-and-go kind of things, and also despawn when the player logs off the game. If it's instanced, then a nice way to be able to visit other people's houses is either make it be like rows upon rows of houses in infinite directions (Server space issues and getting from house to house would be a problem), or just have a system like the following.

Your house is only loaded into server memory if somebody is visiting it. This means that the data for the houses would not need to be loaded all the time (Everything is saved as text somewhere, same with player info and whatever), and there's no server space issues. Houses would be set to public or private as mentioned, most likely an NPC, and visiting somebody's house (Your own being an automatic option for each character) would just be a matter of entering their character name, even easier if it's your friend (Houses should be allowed to be limited to friends of course) where the houses of friends would be loaded into a quick menu for you to not have to enter a name each time. Heck, a list of houses previously visited would also be a great idea, so you don't have to enter a name each an every time if you know you're gonna visit the house a lot.

Of course it would be Zen based an all, since Coin for housing means the company has to set aside server space and progam all this stuff and get no income from it. And when I say the company, I mean PWE, because the publishers don't really do any major coding. Not usually anyyway.

Zen will NOT be used thank you very much

So how do you expect the company to make money from this undertaking? You have to think, at the end, it comes down to money. We play the game to enjoy it, but the company puts it out there to make money. Sure, they listen to the players because players are their income, but that's actually the only reason they listen. There's a loss of money if they don't.

Hence, where's the money if they put in this grand system of housing for ingame money? There's server space/memory to pay for running the instanced houses, and code to write for it.

At the end of the day, the company is thinking, how can we make money from adding houses? If they can't, they will not be inclined to make them. Sad but true.

Darcangel - Heavens Tear

i think useing Zen to get a house is fine with me and i think alot of people would agree with me ....and of course the company would make enough money to be able to support it and still have the game f2p ....all in all i think if alot of people agree to paying Zen for a house there would be a better chance of them adding it then just paying in game money ......with paying Zen they would benifit and we would benifit with being able to have a house

Darcangel - Heavens Tear

If anything i would just like a reply or even a maybe they will add the house feature ......just give me somethin since all the forums i read are all different about this and most of the time there are like hidden messeges saying they might add it idk im confused

I like this idea Very much.

A female barbarian would be *gasp* an Amazon... or that would be the best word used to describe Shampoo from Ranma 1/2. This is about as silly as someone saying "There was no such thing as female samurai in Japan."

I've played games where players have had houses, and I've not been fond of them.

In the granddaddy of MMORPGs, Ultima Online, vast tracts of land were cluttered with PC houses, so much so, that it made it difficult to move around in. And in the PvP environment, visiting houses was a dangerous pastime as some people would sit and wait for passers by, and then kill them.

Some people may have played a game called Runescape, where they had player houses too, but had them stores in "folded space." Does Perfect World have the capabilities to render houses in 3D? Will it have servers space for these?

Overall, a house is nothing more than just something to show off. It's really not needed. And in mythology, most heroes were too busy gallivanting across the countryside to worry about living in a single place. If in the game you are classical Chinese heroes, then there's no need for a house.

Though, I would suggest making an out-of-game house. If people want to show stuff off, why not give them a little place to show off on a web page, where the technology won't have to load multiple textures and render things in a 3D environment?

Pixiewink - Heavens Tear

they did have a house thing when it first came out in the chinese version but they removed it when they made the game free to download and play.

Agree they should bring it back.

not so sure about the battling part though. but i I like this idea, i support this idea.
