Post subject:  What is the Most Important to you?

Staff want to know what you want to be the highest priority, in an effort to more closely guide the intentions of staff with the priorities of those who play the game.
First, we will divide this into two sections:

1st section we want you rate these features by how much you want to see them developed. You have 100 points, so just assign them as you see fit.

The sections are:

New Features - Completely New Features, might be new uses for skills, maybe new races or new towns/creations, completely new item types. Etc. Basically completely new features that don't currently exist.

Upgrades to Skills - Such as adding new craftable items to crafting skills, maybe new fish, or new weapons for warriors. Basically upgrading existing skills without adding anything new to the scope their use, just more options.

Upgrades to the World - Maybe new npcs and new towns, or opening up closed sections of the map. New quests and world wide events, or maybe even personal quests that every character can go through.

Bug Fixes - Fixing bugs that currently exist.

Player Interactions - in-game events by staff, such as dungeon runs, trivia, pvp events, and more

Just give each section a number of points. They all need to add up to 100, if they don't, the ratios of points assigned will be used. This is merely to figure out how best to divide the time and energy of the staff currently available. If players think in-game events is more important, you'll see more staff around, if they think new features is more important, you may see less in-game staff for events and things, but bigger future patches.


The second section I want a priority on bug fixes. As everyone knows there are numerous bugs in obsidian, and 95%+ are well documented by obsidian staff. However not all of these bugs are serious, and some bugs that may be serious to some staff may not be to most players. So as a compromise, we want you to list, in your opinion, the most important bugs to YOU as a player that need to be fixed. If you have more than one, list them from highest to lowest priority.

Do NOT post a description of how it is done, or even more about it than you think you have to for staff to know what you are talking about. Assume we know of the bug in great detail, so just a basic description like "poison invulnerability bug" or "runestone trap bug" will do.

Summary for the too long/don't read crowd:
Rate which is most important out of New Features, Skill Upgrades, World Upgrades, Player Interaction, and Bug Fixes, assigning point values that add up to 100 to the different categories.

Then list in order from highest priority to lowest the bugs you personally want to see fixed. Example: for crafters, you might want a mining bug as highest, while pvp bugs don't bother you.

Things NOT TO DO:
Do NOT Respond to posts by other people
Do NOT criticize others or their priorities/ratings
Do NOT drag the post off topic, or post more than once.

This is taken just to get a general feel of what all the players feel like would be best and try to work that in line with current staff goals as much as possible. Staff may make the shard, but players make it Obsidian.

_______________________________

In terms of 'upgrade to skills' I am shooting for the 'new weapons' --> make some weapons that either hit or do damage.

You'll also need to 'upgrade' the healing skill by removing the shortened delay for Xhealing (just make it the same speed as you would heal yourself - maybe 1 second faster)

bold is just what i added to oldmans.

Is there anything happening with this?

Sufficient time has been given for feedback - what will be put into play?

Or is this thread already past its use-by date?
