Release a Dungeon SDK
Problem
Recent patches have left alot of people wondering when if ever will new dungeons be added in regular patches. I assume that your builders are working on shadowlands and that they simply cant put forth the time to build such dungeons to quality expectations.
Solution?
Release a SDK that would allow AO players to design thier own dungeons and submit them to Funcom. Dungeons that meet quality standards would be implimented in the game world. Players would have the pride of contributing something solid to the game world and funcom could even possibly hold competitions and award free play time for people who get thier dungeon added to the game. This option gives players yet another thing to do, especially those hitting the 200 mark, and also free play time for a month for a person is probably cheeper than paying a worldbuilder or however many to design something.
The Impact!
There are volumes of areas sutible for dungeons large and small in the world of Rubi-Ka, the Medusa city, Cyborg baracks in Avalon, possibly a Dust Brigade dungeon in PW, the Temple in Gtir, varios nano freak cities, the list goes on and on. Giving players a chance to contribute like this both puts AO ahead of any other MMORPG out or comming out (none of them offer player designed dungeons) and can drasticly improve the number of low, mid, and high level dungeons throughout the world of Rubi-Ka. The only thing Funcom would have to do is proof the dungeons and issue a little free play time to winners.
