#381800 duel same weapon option

Posted by Gp on 22 November 2020 - 01:34 PM

Its a shame this happened but the same way you forgot to equip a dds you could also forget to check this option when going into a duel. Its just on the individuals to ensure they're ready for the duel! Remember to record all stakes and gambles! No support.




#380131 Add Blood Runes to normal ::shops like normie/classic mode.

Posted by Real cream on 09 November 2020 - 11:31 AM

No support, lets break this down so you can understand better...

1) 'Add Blood/Soul/death runes to magic shop'

​There are various ways to obtain death/Blood/Soul runes. Recent Implement was the runes to the PKP shop at reasonable prices. Other methods include; Priff mage store, stock of 1k limits, runecrafting and most importantly PVM. I understand that 'PVM' is vague, so therefore i broke it down for you down below shown in the spoiler. (not just PVM, other methods too)

Spoiler



2) 'Add Seeds/Herbs/secondaries to ;;shops'

Farming contracts/Master farmer, PVM, clues will give you bulk seeds from low to high level. I don't see a problem in adding the low requirement herbs for starting out. That being Guam, Marrentill and Tarromin.

I don't think we personally need to add the secondaries, if you see it as a negative, turn it into a positive, farm the seeds and secondaries and sell for profit. Some examples down below.

Spoiler


3) 'Add pots and low level food, lobster/sharks to ::shops like they have in norm/classic'

We've already got lobsters and combat potions. Since you've never looked at the general shop before, i've posted down below for you.

To conclude:

​I do understand you've had an issue with obtaining supplies in the past, perhaps try playing the gamemode rather than merching the community. You've got to realize its a big suggestion which needs thought, I don't believe you've put any thought into this, the suggestion seems rushed to me.

​I personally want the gamemode to be unique, the community is growing and everyone seems to be happy from what I've seen so far. There has been great implementation in regards to updates, so I'm thankful for that.

Thanks for reading,
Real cream




#380094 Add Blood Runes to normal ::shops like normie/classic mode.

Posted by Joey on 09 November 2020 - 03:32 AM

No support, this is what sets realism mode apart from game modes like classic and normal.

This is the most essential part of our game mode apart from the x2 experience. 

 

Most of us who choose this game mode missed those parts but were not into the various ironmen modes, this suggestion would wreck our game mode. 

Potions and food are also a big part of our economy, they are expensive for a reason. 

 

Then there are already lobsters in ;;shops so that statement is false

I also do not enjoy known bugs being fixed, but wont be implemented until we have a big update to roll out, rather than end of the week server reset with bug fixes pushed.




#377435 Feedback October 2020

Posted by Cultured on 19 October 2020 - 02:04 PM

Everyone was waiting for a post like this and I thank you for making it. Gets a lot off the servers chest, phenomenal post. On a side note.

11/10 Post & took a lot of what I've been wanting to say but am honestly afraid to because I know my ranks will fly if I do so.

With the 'troubles' coming to Alora soon, delaying updates & releasing a donator rank, which will fuck custom prices much more, seems to be a few steps in the wrong direction.

Loc dev blog updates?

It's a damn shame that posts like these won't change a thing, only $ talks on Alora.

No one should ever feel threatened about wanting input and to be able to speak their voice especially someone who has been around for a long time and is very respected. This comment alone shows we as a server and community are not going in the right direction.

Posted by Kq head on 19 October 2020 - 01:21 PM

“The main piece of content CoX has been left in this atrocious state for over a month, so we are adding a new donator rank??!”
 
Eternal Donator Rank
 
Anyone else notice this new Eternal Donator rank? As far as myself, and many others in the community that I've talked with are aware, this rank was never proposed, polled, or even mentioned to anyone. Everyone I’ve talked with seems to agree that this is a clear cash grab, and honestly, a slap in the face to most of us. Moving on.. What perks could this new donator rank possibly even offer? Any perks that could possibly be offered to match the cost of the rank would be incredibly overpowered and game breaking. The opinion the community holds on donator ranks is already that the highest rank that is worth the cost is uber, so why would anyone in their right mind pay for a potential $20,000 (potentially higher) rank?
 
For an example, look at the drop rate differences from donator ranks… (While this is a very black and white example, it gets the point across that the rank truly doesn’t provide a benefit worth its price) The Corporeal Beast drops the Elysian Sigil at a 1/2697 rate for non-donors. For uber-donators, that is reduced to 1/2552, and for immortal-donators a 1/2370 chance. Estimating that efficient players can get 30 kills per hour, it would save an immortal-donator 10.9 hours when compared to a non-donator. A $10,000 donator rank is theoretically only saving the player approximately 11 hours, more than $900 per hour saved. Think about what master and immortal donators did to the CoX prices.. How much further can we buff drop rates before it gets to be too much?
 
What’s more realistic is that players (if any even tried) would try and buy the rank with in game gold, buying custom transfers. Considering the on-going rate for $100 custom donations is 3b gold, at a 1:4 rate it would cost a single player 150b gold to obtain the rank from scratch. The benefits that this new rank would have to provide the player to be worth the price would have to be so incredibly overpowered that it would break the game in no time at all. Not to mention… how many players could even afford to buy that, maybe 2? Even so, they would likely have to dump their entire banks to afford it. 
 
Something myself and a few others in the community have discussed as a better alternative would be paying for rank transfers. We understand that there is a cost of running the server, and the players are willing to do that, but a new donator rank isn’t the best way to go about it. Players being able to pay to transfer their donor ranks from account to account is a service that is much higher in demand than a higher tier donor rank. Not only does this accomplish bringing in more income to keep the server going, it also fills a huge need that the community has been asking for. How many players have left Alora because they wanted to play a new account and didn’t have the option to transfer their rank to a new account? Countless players have offered $100 and more to transfer their ranks, and those same players might come back if this was an option. 
 
Lack of communication
 
Take a look at Oldschool Runescape’s method for development and why the current version of OSRS is a much bigger success than its prior Runescape 2 (pre-eoc). They run 30 question content polls at least once a month, and develop content around the results. If something doesn’t pass their threshold of being approved by the community (75%), they don’t bother implementing it unless they further reach out to the community, ask what changes would need to be made to see the content implemented, and then make said changes. While on Alora, the last major content (content that exceeds the “weekly update” time frame) poll took place in September of 2017. It has been over 3 years since one of these polls were posted. Here is the post for those looking… 
 
 
A development focused on what the players would like to see, rather than what content the developers would like to see. This is the style of development that Alora needs to implement. The players keep Alora alive, and players won’t stay when their thoughts and ideas aren’t being listened to. While Omi can, and should, make decisions for the server that he feels are ultimately the best, he should also take into account the ideas that the community has a strong passion for (ex: reworking Olm and ToB, adding nightmare instances and an overall combat system rework). Releasing content like Castle Wars and LMS are not what the players are asking for, yet they get implemented above all else and before fixing what the players are clearly asking for. 
 
Instead of leaving the players, in the dark when it comes to “major” content releases, create development blogs more often. There were 2 back in July and August for the Chambers of Xeric rework, and it was very exciting to see an update like that just around the corner. Knowing what updates are coming and thinking about preparing for those updates always brings back my passion to play because it sets me on a direct path for a cool new piece of content. 
 
Maybe development blogs are something that take up too much of Omi’s time, but there are a ton of dedicated players on the staff team that I am sure would be thrilled to help with the process of testing content and putting together a development blog for the community. 
 
 
Side note. What happened to crack the clue?
ugKaxyC.png
 
 
Stupid update delays
 
This is one of the things that I will never understand the logic behind... Let's look at the most recent, and probably best example of this. The Chambers of Xeric rework is probably one of the best content updates Alora has seen in a long time; not only is it a good advertisement point, but it is also the cause of many old players returning. While I don’t agree with people saying “cOx iS iMpoSsible” I must admit I don’t see any logic behind delaying crucial bug-fixes, like the scaling of the top floor or the chests randomly disappearing for an entire month. 
 
Another good example of this would be a very long time ago, when the skilling interfaces were updated to match OSRS. This update brought a crafting bug, that made the skill impossible to level early on, pretty much rendering the skill unusable for an entire week. Whether the reason is that a server restart would “annoy” players, or rather it was better to simply delay it a week so that the update would look bigger and better. It makes absolutely no logical sense. 
 
As a player, all of this makes me feel so unappreciated on the server. To know that cash grabs and flashy update threads are clearly more important than the player’s experience, it truly saddens me. 
 
 
I anticipate all of the discussions this may start, and I look forward to feedback from everyone within the community.

#371594 On the topic of slurs...

Posted by GIM Goldi on 06 September 2020 - 06:15 PM

While the game is on the topic of getting rid of racial slurs, can we also add the slur for people with mental handicaps to the filtered list? 

 

Its fucking embarrassing that I even have to type this.

 

I see the same 10 year olds who use the n-word also throwing around the r-word. 

 

I'm not a fucking liberal snowflake, this is a RSPS and just seeing that toxic shit in chat is so embarrassing.
