[IDEA] Own house and farm
« on: April 16, 2011, 11:13:00 AM »
The Mount and Blade is focused mainly on combat. Actually there is no way how to earn money than a fight (except trading). Secondly, the player has no possibility of owning a house (except occupation of the city). It would be interesting to add the ability to live in the countryside?  --> buy a house in the countryside?

My suggestions:

- The player has the option to buy a house in the countryside ->

-> relaxation free in own house
-> free rest
-> chest
-> medicine cabinet
-> personal training ground
-> wife/husband feasts
-> horse storage and de-lameing
-> place for your family
-> garden (vegetable)
-> field! - ability to farm field (sowing, harvest)
-> graze livestock...

Yes. Some features are already there. For example: you can build manor on the village, but you can't visit it (or use). Fields and livestock are in villages, but you can't visit the field or seed the corn personally.  -- It is only about clicking on the buttons. Would be interesting to visit these scenes and do these jobs personally....

This part of medieval life is ignored in MaB. I thing that it is a pity. Actually you can't live peacefuly.



I can not create scenes or model items. So I asking if it is good idea? Could you implement something like that?

I suppose you imagine this feature a scenic one, not simple nicely illustrated game menus ?

No, wait, I like this idea. :) Needs to be developed tho.

I'd suggest adding chances of having your estate raided, just as villages being raided, so you loose crops, items, money and etc.

And I would do the scene with pleasure. :)

Well, Petic537 doesn't answer my question, I guess he doesn't care. Why would I ? I rather expand the exploration/quests part, I like it better.

Just give him some time, he may have not visited the forum since.

And you shouldn't speak about ignoring people, Cromcrom. :lol:

I'd love to see this, whether it was just a menu or an actual place in-game.

It is a good idea. But it is more of a long term goal for Crom =)

Indeed. I have many many other things to add "before" Or I could just build on the outpost and fort things, and make them much more personal...

Yet another thing I've been working on in my scrap book, what if 'family' homes were availiable.. icons in positions depending on what 'faction' you choose. also with this each location would lead you to the same 'scene' (unless its a snow scene maybe?)...then we could work from there. .. or a thought I just had, depending on your fathers status determines 'where' and what it is  ie if u have a home or not and if so, status/upbringing determines where it is. ... just a thought  :)

this is a great idea i've been waiting for this kindof thing i think it be cool to add heroes and adopt them into your family and have them live in your house if you want to adventure alone and they can stay and do upkeep your place.
