New Suggestion Thread

I will say for now, I will be leaving class specific suggestions off the list due to the fact in a near future expansion all of them are getting an overhaul as most have seen. And most of the suggestions they are already having some tweak similar to it or exactly what you are looking for. I will however add any that as a community we still feel are lacking after such an update occurs. This doesn't mean they will be approved or submitted for implementation though.

I doubt you'll change colossal dragon fly back to 3.2 base speed though. It's not worth 25 USD if it isn't.

Allow more than 8 toons per account per server. I like to dabble with the sage and demon versions of most classes and the account stash is a cash (and life) saver. There are many classes that I haven't really experienced thanks to the limitation of 8 toons per account.

I'd suggest this, but only as a botique item per character added (No less than 25 USD per character.)

Also i will persist, allow .ini editing.

I saw a squad bulletin idea thing, that would be nice, wouldn't have to waste 50 teles to make a 90+ fc squad on my psy.

These 2.


And let me explain the type of INI editing we are looking for on this thread: http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1064101

We're only wanting facial changed

Very simple, hair changes, eye changes, and color. No full body INI's like sticks and fat balls.

Arena's, Monthly race, Many of the Genie skills and descriptions, (not since beta, but no effort has been put into fixing it), The memory issues/leaks with the client, lack of multi-processor support, the TT quest for the earthquake drum fragment, the water/fire quest in Glee, and numerous other quests that have invalid descriptions or pointers. They supposedly finally fixed the Cleric skill Aegis Spirit, but it's still hit or miss as to whether it gets overwritten properly or not. Usually their response to "fixing" broken skills is to change the description to match the failure in it.

Many of these things we've been complaining about for the past 4 years, and a lot of it in the previous suggestion thread. Unfortunately they either go unanswered, or incorrectly fixed. (Like when we complained that the free TB wings were too small, so the Dev's "fixed" it by doubling the size on every TB wing except the ones we were complaining about.)

There are also many issues with Venomancer pets that have come up since the Genesis update because of changes to the pet system with the summons. Unfortunately, they have not fixed them either. (It's pretty stupid when my pet is on manual and then decides to go off and aggro 20 mobs all on his own with no input from me. (Yes, I opened a ticket on it, basically the answer was "we have no idea. maybe someday it'll get fixed, or maybe not".))

Lets not forget the wedding quest/ceremony...still fails for no good reason, and we pay for this one so in my opinion, it is unacceptable.b:shutupb:cry

Add more things to

Event gold rewards
Token rewards
DQ point rewards.

the free stuff that pwi doesnt like to update >>

I just saw this thread & oh,my! already so many posts! I haven't
read them all, so a warning--some of these may have already been
suggested. I'll make it concise as possible.

My suggestions tend to be piddly in the grand scheme of things, but
still, they are things which I think would improve the game.

1) make fashion preview window bigger, much bigger. Too much
detail of fash cannot be seen.

2) simplify the Quest Tracker overlay window--it's too cluttered
with non-essential info. Put the bare basics there--name of
quest w/clickable name of mobs/items needed. If players want
more info, they can open the full Quest window.

3) I did read just enough posts to know I'm not the first to say
this: don't allow ini. edits. The chars I've seen with the
eg eyes tend to look ridiculous. Why not let my cleric have
a veno tail? or my wiz those serrated tb ears? Why stop with
the eyes? No, just let every class keep their own special
look.

4) Back to fashion: offer layer-able fash. Sell shirts, etc.,
then sell jackets, vests, capes, etc. that can be worn
over them. Players could individualize their char like
crazy. Also offer accessories: jewelry, belts, scarves, etc.

5) Makeover scrolls: allow a window of time (like Modify when
you first create a char), to change your char. Doesn't have
to be the 3 days or whatever it is, just an hour or so.

6) Buff/debuff icons under char's avatars: make it easier to
tell at a glance if it's a "good" buff or a "bad" buff.
I know the outline colors are different, but it's hard to
tell sometimes. Plus they sometimes appear willy-nilly in
the middle of all the other buffs. During runs, with buffs
and debuffs flying like crazy, it's very difficult for me
as a cleric to see which players need buffing/purifying.

7) Let my squad list stay where I put it once & for all. When
I have any kind of pet out, the squad list falls right on
top of it, I have to move it everytime. (Hey, I said these
were piddly things, lol)

8) Make all aoe attacks NOT require a target. If you target,
then the aoe will affect mobs around the target; but if
you don't target, then aoe will still work on all mobs
within a radius from caster.

I'm sure there are others, but I'll leave off here for now.

Hello,

I've decided with approval from the staff to start an Official Suggestion thread. The reason is after years of flooded requests in the suggestion box, it has pretty much become ignored.

Please list some suggestions you would like to see for the game. I will compile a list of ones that seem reasonable and submit them to Frankie every week and he will review and submit any he agrees with.

If you have any questions feel free to PM me.


~Jen

Edit for a side note.

This thread will be moved to its correct location in the Suggestion Box next Monday 10/1/12. I have it started here so people are aware of this thread and get the ball rolling so to speak.

Edit 9/25/12

List compiled onto Google Docs for a cleaner and more effective method of sharing this data with staff and other mods. I may provide updates in the future on suggestions that have been passed to be submitted to be approved.

NECROMANCER pleassse I want undead minions, not just 1 pet like veno or mystic.

All monsters tameable, even bosses (but harder) by Veno, that would put lots of fun into collecting and variety into the game.

PLAYER HOUSING, please from the P2P china version that would be fun

FINISH THE GUILD BASES, you promised guild wars but didn't come through on that. please finish it.

Release the hidden content on the game, all of it please. There are still stuff not here.

Druid class, where you can transform, veno and barb are fun but what about a class with more forms?

Put back DQ prices to how they were when game was launched.

expand slots on the account for characters so we can have one of each class.

Server wars would be fun where all can participate.

make all items account stashable.

re-distribute the CDs.

More GM in-game events, like in 2008.

More custom events, like the two snowmen quests, valentines flower

FIX broken events.

Make things like nein beast event perm.

Make it easier for a new player to afford things, i'm always too poor for anything at all.

Make a Star trek/champions online sign up plan where you buy forever and are able to recieve free monthly zen.

NON-game related:
Re-release heroes of three kingdoms/ legend of martial arts

release swordsman online and TL MMO

release CD's for your other games.

comb through the suggestion box. there are still good suggestions there that i can't remember.

I'll start with 1:

Changing the rules on INI editing. b:cute

http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1064101

Would be nice if venos had the opportunity to tame a larger variety of animals. There are some in the newer areas of the game such as tellus area that are not tameable. * Please change the items available in the event boutique...my suggestions: make mounts and flyers upgradeable, possibly add upgrade items to boutique like the wind wigets etc
...also, the fashion items need to be updated, there has not been a change since at least 2010, if ever, and more help with refines in event boutique...mirages, maybe even all the way up to orbs...start small if you want and only put in the one star?**...Since the prices are so high, and we need to earn the dq to get the event gold, it will help keep people playing and spending, and it should not affect the real cash spenders in game, as there will still be a ton of items that are not available in event gold. I also, am a fan of making the Lunar cape a tradable item, maybe also the 79 TM cape as well, if it is not already. My last suggestion has to do with the items that were, but are no longer able to account stashed, and the durations on most items that have them. Two horrible ideas, that you can consider tested and failed. Adding a duration to the anniversary fashion for example, makes it nothing more than a UNIFORM!! If males get one style, and females get one style, and we all have to wear them right away because of the duration...they are nothing more, sad. And I am not the only one who was upset to one day find all the hypers they had stashed on one toon, were no longer account stashable!! Now that toon is going to have to make use of what could possible be way too many hypers, while the other toons they wanted to use them on have none. Also on that note...we need one type of socket stone or let them both stack please?!!! No reason I should have 2 spots taken for one item, especially when there are items stuck in my inventory or bank that I cannot use and they are not able to trade, discard, sell, account stash...nothing. I know this looks like a lot but I play every day and love this game...I do not want to see any regulars go, help keep pwi alive!!! TY!!!b:victoryb:kissb:pleaseb:chuckle

Having the veno's nix actually fly over hills instead of it getting stuck each and every time on every single bump on the map.

Bring back fairy boxes in single mode.

I would like to see being able to stack things unlimited, ie TT items, MP/HP pots, and pretty much everything to at least 5000. With all that is available in the game now, even with full inventory and bank and account stash, it is hard to have room for things. Make account stash bigger like bank length.

Stop the unable to put in account stash or unable to trade on items that we pay for or earn, if we buy it or earn it, it is ours to do with what we want to do. I find it really annoying when I get things from either earning or buying them and then can not trade to another account of mine, or give to a friend to use or sell an item that I have made, gotten, or bought. We spend the time and money on things, should be able to do what we want with them. (R8, R9, use our points we earn in the boutique to buy things and sell for money to make us some coins, etc. ) We are the ones who spend the coin, time, and energy to keep things going and shouldn't be penalized by not being able to make coin for things we want.

Make some type of way other than getting lucky with packs to get LOVE UP AND DOWN TOME. I really really want to have one of these, have spent literally many thousands of dollars on tokens and lots of other things in this game and have yet to get that tome. I don't have the coin it costs to get one and can't afford to cash shop anymore at this time. Please find a way to make it easier for people to get this tome. Didn't we used to be able to make this tome at the forges like the other ones???

Thank you for your time. NakedGirl LVL 102 Cleric Heaven's Tear

Oh yea i agree for the socket stones it's annoying to have two piles of them, put back at one thing.

I personally don't like to FF. And I do TT runs sometimes but I have stuck fairy chests in my bank. How about making the chests openable without a key but u only get half of the amount of mirages than with a key or just remove the necessity or a key completely, because i want to be able to remove fairy boxes from my bank its just a waste of space.

Second. I notice when I first started the game it was full of noobs so lively in noob areas now its completely deserted.

Everyone does p lvl runs which is fine I'm sure because they invest money in PWI and lvl fast

You should really consider paying more attention to the little guy. I know a few kids in this game some from poor locations who love this game but also hate it because this "perfect world" is a miniature version of this economy where the rich are the most powerful while the poor tremble before them.

The idea or the way I saw this game long ago was an escape from our current reality of money and greed to a world where people of all kinds can get along and interact with eachother, but not anymore.

A good suggestion would be when a player likes perfect world off facebook they can get a blessing as well as 50 or 100 zen. To a wealthy person thats not a lot but to someone who doesn't make a lot it might be different

Also I think the time for expansion of lvling should begin. Since many players are lvling so fast from all the p lvl runs they do more and more people are reaching max lvl in no time. I believe you should raise the level and perhaps provide new armour other than 99 TT armor that makes a player 5.0

Also if you can change the pwi teacher blessing to something more useful to players. That would be great. Might I suggest a perfect token of best luck for a perfect day of attendance?

Also I notice that sometimes buffs don't stack like my archer blazing arrow buff I have to wait for it to go away for me to rebuff I think you should fix that.

Also fix weapons so they don't with class buffs. I used to like Dark Death Thorn because it increased my phy defence but took away my magic def buff I got from cleric. Same goes for a weapon I believe that brambles you.

Also you should provide more things for event gold. Alot of people work their butts off getting dq points for demon/sage card and I think the award should wow them. The only thing I use event gold for is charms refinement or fireworks when im bored.

Might I suggest newer fashion? (which you guys should make more of perhaps things more modern in todays society?) or wing widgets to upgrade flyers because no one really bothers buying that anymore.

I don't think this is a possibility but could u possibly make it so catshops do not have to be online to sell items in their shop perhaps a timed catshop 72 hours before they have to renew it

I also think their should be homes for players in case they have parties. I used to play ********* and people built houses with portals or monsters or dungeons their own little world of crazy adventures to call their own.


Please provide me a response if possible if any of these suggestions are any good to your eyes or not.

Thank you

(Sorry if this has been mentioned and I missed it.) What about putting a "Perfect Silver Hammer" in the DQ Rewards or Tolken shop, that just opens the level 50 and 80 supply stash boxes? I've heard more than a few players say that they'd rather get rid of their supply stash, than to buy a Perfect Golden Hammer for 5 zen, when they could buy more useful items for the same price. Especially if the items have a time limit, as was mentioned to me. Just a thought.

i think they should put a hammer for opening supply stash in event gold or just make it free if its timed

Mingkeey - Lost City wrote: »

remove fairy box keys

remove perfect hammers

150 raps/ 300 cannys for Summerwind token.

Remove bounty hunter

Lol ...

Yeah it used to be the items you got from your LVL 50 box was permanent. Now they are timed. No use in spending that kind of money for the box. Also for the last box you get to open at lvl 80 is a Christmas tome which is only 1 percent crit tome. The hammers cost way more than what the box is worth. Why not if you gonna have the hammers, allow you to pick your own tome and let it be at least a lvl 2 tome if not higher for that kind of coin/cash for the hammer. And the level 50 wep from the box, don't make it timed, or take the hammers out of the equation. Thanks.

-More ways to gain noticeable exp 100-105. Frost gets old, meditation is laughable, AEU is too little for investment of resources and time, and PV you can only do once a day if you're not cashing in Morai points.

You can get a friend to open if for you, or pay someone else to open it. You can only open it yourself once a day though.

IIRC, you can do PV more than once a day. You just have to get someone else to open it for you, as you can only open it once a day. From what I hear it's actually good exp.

Maelael - Heavens Tear wrote: »

I'm gonna be a hater, but don't allow .ini editing. Some .ini edits look absolutely ridiculous and dumb. Just add the EG eyes and etc stuff that people want on their toons to the selections with the makeover scrolls. The uber BESM anime style meets hammer-smashed-face skinny as a toothpick toons were getting absurd.

Then just turn off the customization or zoom out when you're in squad with a toon you find ugly. The ini editing petition already address the fact that body size edits should not be permitted for obvious reasons.

Crystyl - Dreamweaver wrote: »

I'd like to see the DQ rewards change occasionally or at least offer more choices.

I'd like to see more choices but don't really wanna see anything removed. I'd also like it if they would add like 5-10 points to the level 1-30 drops to make up for the price nerf. It's a bit difficult to buy skills and armor when you need them. And having to wait to buy it when you outlevel it so quickly is supremely disappointing. New players shouldn't need to merchant for the basics yet.

The thing is, it was always intended to be something you can edit. Which is why the files don't require you to use any hacking software to view the files. And why they are stored clientside. IN fact, currently the only people who are not allowed to modify them because of external rules are the people in the East and West coast of the USA. It's not even a client issue anymore, since you are currently allowed to modify the files all you want. YOu just can't use themo n the East/West coast servers. Only on the EU ones. It just seems ridiculous to me that the people on the East and West Coast USA servers are the only ones not allowed to take advantage of a game mechanic.

Besides, you can just turn the customization off when you're in squad with one? How often do you zoom in on another person's eyes anyway? I mean PWCN allows it, and they are the ones that designed the game. There are other folders in that folder for references pictures and a whole reference picture functionality, indicating that we are supposed to be able to use that folder to interact with the game's character customiation feature. And the only reason we aren't allowed to do it is probably because the guys in charge when this first opened didn't like other people's styles, to the point they refuse to even sell advanced makeover scrolls. Despite the fact that much of the customization options available from inis is allowed there.

When the game even allows you to turn off the customizations so that you do not have to allow someone else's design aethestic ruin your gameplay, to me it seems pretty terrible that you they still refuse to allow people to design their character how they would like to, purely because even the idea of that design being around is ugly to someone else.

Not to mention it is a collosal waste of GM resources. When the GMs are spending hours banning people for a simple eye swap when it hurts nobody and has no affect on the in-game economy (unlike exploiting glitches, account sharing, etc) instead of taking care of more important things, it hurts everyone.

Agreed, so much. It's a bit ridiculous we have to change servers or create a new a account just because we want to try them all out.
