Im tired and will keep this nice and short...AO needs
1.) A money sink at high levels.
The economy is bad enough as it is and is getting worse with every mob looted and item sold. People at the high levels need something to spend their money on weither it be a personal apparentme
nt which you can expand or even get benefits from being in (say +50 tradeskills if you'd set your apparetment up to be a workshop), or a casino (casinos take in more money then they give out), ANYTHING PLEASE. The only thing a person does at high levels with money is to let it pool until they seem something rareish and decide they want to blow 100mil+ for it.
The longer you wait the worse it gets. There should be no reason for people's banks to be 999,999,999 legitimatly (i know a few). Think about it, what does a lvl 150+ person spend their money on(ignoring 100mil+ rare things that 95% of the people never see)? Stims, kits, ,insurance terminals and maybe tips for the occasional buff.
2.) Better places to PvP.
PvP between2 of the biggest guilds from both sides of the conflict over Tarasque in that stupid square room at the bottom of the stairs every 18hours doesn't cut it. Neither does bunker sitting in 2h0.
We need a place equally acessable to both sides. A place thats not near a zone, or a 75-100% place where people coward off to, or a place where people can abuse the 15second PvP rule by zoning multiple times. These new places (notice the PLURAL use of the words there.. need more then one) should also be worth taking over. A nice castle or fancy outpost, not some dinky square of land with a hut or two on it.
To make it short.. leveling in a mission is not fun, there is nothing worth exploring on RK (i know... i've flown over it all), and just sitting around talking to someone is something you can do for free with MSN/ICQ/EMAIL/AIM/ETC. The only thing really fun to do at high levels is PvP. After countless days sitting in 2h0 waiting for someone to get lag so you can pick them off between bunkers, it gets boring to the point where people jsut don't ant to bother playing and quit.
Yes I know there are captuable bases planned later but that doesn't help people now. Its not like I am asking for something huge.. just something different. Besides.. knowing how long things stay on the envisioned list doesn't help. We don't need these changed in 6 months when the top playerbase has moved on to other things, we need it now BEFORE that happens.
4holes if about the best place to PvP without the bunker/zone tactics screwing things up but that puts clan at a disadvantage since omni can just whompa in (gridding in is a death sentance for the team who doesn't hold it).
A nice fair place that people would be interested in taking over and holding from the enemy would be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO worth funcoms effort towards keeping the people happy.
Whats a game about conflict without a place to fight?
3) Stuffed leets, Cloudeh T-shirts and Nerf bats for all
