Thing is wont this just mean people don't bother to make money and rely on loot?

This is something that is very common in PW and practically the only thing people do in PE. Noone will bother grinding for 20mins only to lose it all in 1 random. They will just stand around waiting for someone with a musket to die instead.

I have never liked high drop ammounts. Losing all your equipment and health is more than enough IMO. It just penalises those that invest in their character and DOES nothing to those who walk around naked with no money.

Those naked-no-money guys also often tend to be trolls and **** players.

Need to be very careful with this one IMO. I know you already pointed out the risks but the main thing is WHO it effects. Why will the naked guy who just spawned with a sword care about death?

Maybe look at losing fighting classes or spawn locations. Commoners should have to walk quite far to get somewhere when they die IMO.

PS wage idea sounds great. Chests are good too but they are very hard to manage.

Me and Uhtred have been playing around with a simple concept: fear. How can we make players fear death? We've looked at the following possible ways we can make players fear death:

• Increasing money drop to a very high percentage; 90-100%
• Making it difficult to make money in the first place; emphasises the above point
• Adding risk factors to the banks; we'll go into more detail concerning this later

This is difficult because we don't want to make the mod too difficult or too much of a grind, but we do want a significant disadvantage to dying, but not too significant because we still want combat. We want a middleground. So, does anyone have any suggestions concerning this issue?

Another feature I'm working on is a wage system; when you are in a faction, your lord can choose to give wages to the members of the faction; all of the payments come directly from the faction lord's pockets, bank account & any chests the lord controls. We're aiming to have it completely adjustable, so the frequency of payments can be adjust as can the size of payments through a basic GUI / Menu (accessed through the faction administration menu). We may, depending on the complexticity, also give the faction lord the ability to adjust the payments for individual classes / troop types in the faction.

Does anyone have any suggestions for features like this?

Oh, and on another note our steam group is now publically open to join (so anyone can join it now) for anyone interested. We'll start posting announcements through it when major progress updates are posted and when the first set of alpha tests comes up.

Egytian infantry bad? how come?
They are fast moving with nice weapons, and chariots. I am not sure if we will be able to put them in, I do hope so though!

Hey I found the problem, when I saved that game it was from the old version on warband, now there is a new version and I guess it's not compatible with it.
