I NEED YOUR GUYS' IDEAS FOR THE GAME

WizGamerWizGamer Member UncommonPosts: 403
in Guild Wars

Hi, I am helping a little with the production of the game (very little). If you guys have any ideas please tell me so I can contact the company and let them know.

Ideas such as:

Races- has to be unique because elves, orcs, and dwarves are booorrrriing

A Unique Storyline- it has to immerse the player

Fighting System- I would like real-time fighting but just post any suggestions for fighting

Game Appearance/ Gameplay- Unique Gameplaying that other games don't have. Beautifully detailed landscape, etc.

Server- low lag, etc,etc.

I WILL SUBMIT ALL YOUR IDEAS TO THE COMPANY VIA E-MAIL,

 

THANKS

    I refer you to this page on the official Guild wars website.

    Specifically the following quoted excerpt from that page:

    I have an idea for a commercial venture (play, movie, action figure, etc) involving the Guild Wars world. Shall I send it to you?

    Unfortunately, ArenaNet cannot accept unsolicited ideas or submissions. As a result, we will not be able to review or authorize any submissions of this sort. We will not view e-mailed submissions and must return mailed submissions unopened.

    Well Ghostraptor, the quote said no ideas for movies, and plays, and all that stuff. Not ideas directly for the game. And if these ideas are submitted by somebody within the company, I am sure they will be heard.

  • GnarledGnarled Member Posts: 566
    Indeed. Yet having read the initial post I am quite certain that the poster was external to the company. Knob.

    Yeah, the quote is in reference to non-game material.. However I'm pretty sure it also applies to ideas for the game. The reasons are legal in nature (intellectual copyright etc), I believe.

    As for whether or not the person is ArenaNet staff... They'd have no need to submit via email if they were. They'd do it during office meetings. Heck, I'm an alpha tester and even I don't have to use email to give feedback.

    Eh, and I have no suggestions, this game looks pretty awesome...

    But strangly its looking alot like WoW in a few ways, and if I remember correcltly the devolpers are from Blizzard. This game looks really decent and the fact that its going to be free (other than the expansions) I think this game will do quite well.

    Thanks for wanting to help, WizGamer. Suggestions are always welcome, so post those here and we'll be sure to read them and give them careful consideration!

    Oh, and thank you for your kind words, Anarcho. I agree that the Art Team is doing some amazing work! It's really a pleasure to see the evolution of the game, and to look at the new characters, and monsters, and quest regions as they are created.

    One of the best parts of my job is helping with our screenshot selections -- it's sort of like having first choice of a 2-pound box of Godiva!  image

    A cool race would be something like the Tauren in WoW or the Wookiees in SWG.  I like to be big and tough!

    If you want to be different, don't make humans the middle of the run average like in every single rpg game. I don't know if this is possible because you need a starting point to build everything else, but it would be something different.

    Lol well that quote in the 2nd post obvisouly said enough. But if it didn't apply I wouldn't know what they should add because none of us has played it and imformation itself isn't as good as the actual game.

    Hail sir(s),

         How about adding the ability to be able to dye your armor/weapons.  I think it would add an intricate stand out for everybody to be unique in their own way.  Not to mention for archers, being able to dye a bow would be great.  I play AC1 and love the dyeing ability to your armor, but you can't do that for weapons.  I also beta tested AC2 and am currently beta testing CoH (city of heroes).  i am trying to beta test this game but do not know how to go about doing it.  After a day or so of beta testing then the suggestions for stuff to add should skyrocket.  Thanks again.  Lurpyd

    How to say this gently...

    The ability to dye armour and weapons has been implemented in the game for ... at least a year now I believe. Dyes were discussed in articles on Guild Wars from the 2003 E3 (held in May).

  • LurpydLurpyd Member Posts: 11
    I thank you sir for giving that to me gently hehe.  I just herd about guild wars only 3-4 weeks ago and have not gotten a chance to read up on all of it.  I do plan to though.  Thank you for your response.
