Feedback and Suggestions / Faction home/Clan Docks
« on: October 12, 2013, 02:18:17 am »
So I was just watching the recent dev speak upload and a suggestion came to my mind when they were mentioning a bit of an RP factor with the faction overworlds, such as docks and taverns. Now, being a hardcore and veteran RPer myself, the first thing I usually do in any game is acquire some form of residence for my character, such as in World of Warcraft where there are tons of empty buildings and caves one can use on the RP server. This is what came to mind for my suggestion of Faction Housing and Clan Docks:

This is the scenario: You have done outstanding achievements for, lets say, the Yeshan Empire. You have escorted cargo ships, fought off pirates, protected diplomats and helped with assaults against Anglean Raiders. You have earned awards, titles, a new ship design and even a unifrom to show your faction pride. However, you continue to do outstanding achievements. What could you earn next? You are given honorary citizenship within the Emperial  Capital and are given a place of residence. This place would serve as:

-A log in point where your character would start off when you enter the game.
-A meeting place for friends and crew members.
-A nice RP zone for those dedicated to the art.

And one thing many people would like:

-A place to show off your trophies, medals, and awards.

Look at it like this: You just finished a weapon where you sunk a sky pirate captain's galleon. His fleet fled the field and you were able to loot a piece the ship, maybe the steering wheel or part of his propellor, or even better, his flag. Now you would be able to place this trophy on your wall as proof that you beat this field boss and gained this achievement.

Now for the mentioning of Clan Docks. We already have clan teams in competition play and with the release of co-op and adventure mode, there will begin to spawn a larger variety of clans. A clan dock would serve as a meeting zone for your clan only:

-A meeting place to plan crews for tournaments/COGS.
-A meeting place to plan raids and missions.
-A generally good hang out and a spot to AFK.
-A place to put trophies earned while raiding as a full clan.

This is merely a work in progress suggestion and I would appreciate any criticism and suggestions.

The Gallery / Up and coming airship builders (lego art)!
« on: August 08, 2013, 02:48:52 pm »
Evening  everyone, master (more or less) engineer McMorgan here bringing to the GoI art scene something a little different, and it includes the creations of something hopeful little artists.

To explain, I am a counselor at an art camp, working with around as few as three and as many as thirteen 5-6 year olds. My class is a lego class. That's right, we build Legos for 9 hours(morning class and afternoon vary.) Each day, we do a different theme for what we build, and today I just happened to have my steampunk goggles, and because Thursday are teamwork building day, I had an awesome plan.

"Alright my apprentices, today you four teams are charged with creating a new fleet for her majesty's air armada. You must work together to build your own unique airship or suffer banishment from the kingdom!"

This is what we got!
