Greetings

I would like to write some of my Ideas for the the upcoming Warband expension
as a computer game's designer and graphic artist I have my own ideas that I would like
to share with who ever is willing to hear them ofcourse =]

I love this game and I would like to see it grow better in the future =]

[SUGGESTIONS]

Spears: a feature to plan spears/pikes/javalin into the ground ,which will make a "lance damage" to any horse that will crash into it from a certain angle ofcourse...
            this could add more realism and add more defence for the weaker spear units that can't fight againts cavalery at all.

Arrows/Bolts: In real wars archers could carry more then 30 arrows/bolts to wars, and could change the tip of there arrows to damage low or heavy armored targets
                    - range, damage and speed can be modified by changing the looks of the arrow a nice feature of tweaking can add much more playability to the game

Special features: letting the players draw/change there own armors apearance, add colors draw symbols or writings or anything they like on the armors/cloths
                        clans will be able to change all there colors to match there clan's apearance for example.

Tweaks: as I mentioned before in the Arrows/Bolts section - it would be awsome to see features that let the player tweak the weapons stats change its apearance upgrade it
            repair it, sharpen it, clean it, add jewlery and etc... like in real life people took care of there weapons which make them respect it even more =]
            a user which doesnt take care of his equipment will walk with a rusty old dull weapon that can barly kill anyone...

poison: people could put poison into there weapons and a succsesfull piercing hit can poison the player and lower his stregth and health during his spawn

fire: putting people on fire using flaming arrows or oil pots and fireing arrows at them could be a great way to defend a castle and make the whole game more intresting

attack dogs: good use of attack dogs or any other attacking animal in the game could be realy intresting.

castles: letting people construct there own villieges and castles and having others trying to take them other could be an intresting idea perhaps not for this expension
            but for any future expension, leting the player choose the basic defencive units and equipment that will be given to the teams... this idea can be added to
            server admins.

chat rooms: adding interective chat rooms in a pub, sitting over a cold beer and talking and waiting for a game to start =]]

horses: while on horse the player can have another empty slot to put equipment in it, in real life people carried there equipment on there horses and made there life alot easier
            another feature that can be put is letting the horse attack using its horseshoes =]

throwing weapons: players can throw any of there weapons at someone for a small damage or to be able to be lighter and run away in case of close to death.

trees: let light weight units be able to climb on trees and fire arrows at enemys =] this could be great for surprise attacks or special tricks in battles.

death: decapitation and lose of limbs could be a cool thing to see in the game and I'm sure other's already mentioned that.

special kills: give knifes the abillity to inflict much greater damage when u stab someone from the back making small arms still effective
                  what I didn't like was that when u play the single player a normal sword would hit faster then a small dagger which made no sense for me
                  I played only once with a dagger and I could see a great potential for it if it would be faster and changing to it in a middle of a fight could
                  aid the player to hit his enemy faster or as a backup when his sword is broken or fell or anything else...

in game chat: like in counter strike, be able to speak using the mic



okay those are some of the ideas I was thinking about latly, the major thing I would like to see is customable equipment, because when u buy one realy good weapon then that's it
you don't have to buy anything else any more which get's me bored because all I can do now is just raise my level and find the last unit of my enemy's faction and destroy it...
if anyone have anything to add or say about my ideas right have you are welcomed to write ur opinion =]

and I want to play warband already!!! so finish it dudes!!! =D
 
Some nice ideas in there) I totally support throwing weapons and trees climbing.

Btw did anyone here discuss a posibility to pick up enemy arrows\bolts from the ground or from shields and use them?

You already can pick up enemy arrows and bolts from the ground. I don't think anyone would try to yank an arrow out of a shield. It would take time and the arrow is likely to break.

Whenever I pick up a quiver, it only gives me one arrow. Do you know if that's a bug or WAD?
 
great ideas or ext but warband is like half way or lower higher til finsh.. and take while to make the anmtions and ect but rly nice

Indeed, hovever I mean individual bolts and arrows. Say you're defending the castle on a wall and have 10 arrows left.An enemy archer is trying to hit you but his arrow hits the wall. You pick this arrow  upand it is added to 10 arrows you previously had. Surely most of such arrows are likely to be broken, it would suffise if player could pick every third or fourth arrow. It could also depend on a place the arrow hit. If it is a shield or a stone wall, most arrows would be unpickable. If it is ground or tree or body, most arrows could be ok for using them once again.
 
what do you guys think about the spear featue? I think its a very good idea which is easy implimented into the game and can make a huge diffrence on the game play
usualy spearman are totaly weak againts cavalery in the game... even when in realife they had devestating attacks vs horses...

it could give nords for exmple much more balance vs cavalery


and how about custom equipment?
 
One idea I really liked was the attack animals!Imagine leading a pack of hounds while you are on a horse!Or escaping a frenzied elephant!That would be awesome!

If you can't kill a horse while using a spear your doing it wrong. Whats the point in this if anyone is playing against kherigits, everyone will just start putting their spears into the ground and then khanate will make you wait till master of the field (if not in battle they will just wait I guess).
 
It'll work once, but those crossbows and arrows can make quick work of shields if they're given enough time.
 
well some of the features you mentioned are exist in other mod
as custom settlement
why they only took features from native expansion but left the braced spear wich was kicking the horses ass
and what about combat engine from Expanded Gameplay
the trees idea is really not worth the effort
attack dogs? very nice
i'm supprised that none of the mod makers didn't created elephants to be used as horses

I have quite a few things to say about these.

#1  Spears in the ground would make it much too easy to kill cavalry as it already is easy to kill cavalry even without the use of spears
#2  30 arrows in multi player is plenty but in seige fights it would be nice to have plentiful arrows, and im pretty sure they couldnt change the tip of thier arrows while they are in a battle as they would have to string them on, customizing arrows would be pretty neat however.
#3  This would be a very nice feature but I fear it might be a little tough to add colors and designs to every set of M&B armor so I will assume that if you want customized armor enough that you will learn how to mod it in.
#4  I completally agree with this, it would be very very cool if the more skill you have in engineering the better you could customize your weapons at level 1 you could maybe be able to change the leather for the hilt to make it a little better fitting for your hand so that you could increase the damage by like +1 or +2, then at maybe 10 engineering or say add a new skill called black smithing they could completally change the sword to make it fit thier needs just how they see fit, me I am a nord berserker so i would want a 2 handed axe with nice designs on it to make it look cool and be very very heavy to break medium shields in one hit.  It would make this game much more customizable.
#5  No, just no lol
#6  Yes, on both but defenders need something to help them too, give them a working tower, a seige ram and more than 1 freaking ladder to climb
#7  No.
#8  Yes, this would be very neat feature to have an active multi player world map without AI parties or at least fewer and make it a customizable map where you could have many players join a faction that a person has made or create their own (which would cost alot of money) and I don't know if any of you have played shadow bane before but the same map principles like they had where you could create a city where it advances over time and the more money the guild coffer has which you could donate denars into if your guild thiths are low and there could only be a set ammount of citys on the world map where you could destroy other players but would give them 1 week notice before it allows you to attack thier city so you don't just log off then log in the next day and your city is gone.
#9  That would be pretty cool if you are waiting to join a tournement if they added the above (live world map) grab a beer in life and in game while waiting for it to start  :smile:
#10 Yes to the horse baggage no to the horse attacking
#11 would be nice =)
#12 perhaps but how would infantry get up to kill them, you have to make the game balanced you know
#13 yes
#14 yes
#15 yes

P.S. I would have put more feed back into it but I am lazy tonight
:neutral:
 
Thanks for ur replys guys

oh about the elaphant mode I must agree how come no one made it so far O_O perhaps I should try and make one who knows
thought I rather ride a dragon or a tiger @_@ with awsome LOTR shields on it lolz

about changing armor colors its not that hard... the developers must make another layer that will be showen on the armor parts itself its not
that hard to make after all and it will add alot to the game

I like the idea of making live towens... with guilds in it and players could fight among them selfs in the towns or go out side to other towns... and let rich players be able to buy certain places out side or inside towns and control them... earning more cash weapons items and giving them away to there own soldiers... then trying to take over other places and etc...
I'm sure that admins can make that work and can create many fields for players to run in and kill each other... I would like to be able to have my own grass field which I will raise my own cattle and villiges and in the end will be able to build my own defences while trading with other players and fighting to get money =] that would be so cool...

I could make a blacksmith and create weapons from meterials =]

wow this game could be so awsome =D

Thats the main thing I hope it doesnt change into  :neutral: but customizing armors and having a live style map that you could team up with players to defeat castles would be pretty cool just dont make it into a mmorpg
