Yes, the limit should be level 1 so everyone gets bored and quit the game.

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

well your very imaginative lol

but seriously why would u want people to quit faldon cause if u hate it soo much then u wouldn't be posting on the forrum unless u were a very sad human beeing.

Which is a possability

sweeet

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

Have you noticed that 99% of the posts on General Discussion and The Trash Heap are NOT related to Faldon?

I guess not.

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

u hate this game soo much so why support it by using the forrum ?

sweeet

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

Well I only have 1 person on this forum on my MSN list.

And I don't really think I'm supporting the game by talking shit on a forum... I think I'd be giving it a bad name, if anything.

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

u should get more people's msn's or maybe you only have 1 players msn cause no one else on the faldon wants to talk to u ?

sweeet

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

Oh no! Some people on FALDON don't want to talk to me?

Not quite a big loss in my opinion.

I was NOT complaining. It was just one of my reasons to why I use these forums.

soo if u dont care about talking to ppl then which is it r u just very lonely or is actually ppl on here that u would like to talk to but they dun wanna talk to u ?

It's neither. I come on here to diss n00bs, speak to the most intelligible beings on the forums and sometimes use the forum as a filler of time.

u have nothing better to do with your time then come back to a game u dont play and talk or diss ppl u dont even know

use the forum as a filler of time.

Well then that means you have nothing better to do than write pathetic and useless suggestions that will never be implemented into a dead-end game as well as blatantly showing off your lack of intellect for the rest of the forum.

use the forum as a filler of time.



HA HA HA HA

I don't see the humour in that. I might be downloading a file and if it takes a minute or so I'll just quickly go onto this site and do a few quick replies before it finishes.

True that suggestions will probably never be applied but faldon beeing a dead-end game not soo true its only crap 1/2 the time the rest of the time it is ok

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

Personally I do not much fancy the idea of a level cap. It's too artificial and restrictive. I'd rather make the xp formula, and monster spawns such that getting beyond a certain level is very hard... so that for example if you would translate amount of time spent leveling and level reached this client.

currently = new system

lvl 100 = lvl 110
lvl 200 = lvl 160
lvl 300 = lvl 190
lvl 400 = lvl 210
lvl 500 = lvl 220


Something like that, so it keeps getting harder and harder to lvl on. It is still possible to get a small edge over others with hard work, but it wont be as rediculously linear as right now. As a small counter to this effect, damage would be changed so that 3-hit rule is no longer applicable when similar levels are dueling, and as such the 'first person to hit wins' principle that seems to govern some warrior dueling atm (though its not quite to the same degree as it was before) would exist no longer.

Ah well, lots of ideas for balancing, but such big changes are unlikely to ever happen without a wipe first so it wont happen soon.

Man, I sure do have a distasteful habit for dredging up old topics...

I like exp how it is now.

Modern cyberspace is a deadly festering swamp, teeming with dangerous programs such as''licensed Microsoft software'' that can take over your computer and render it useless.

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

Yea somthing like the old client xp system.

Dont look down here, my message is up there.

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

I like crovax's idea, it would mean that it would be very hard to create a ridiculously powerful character, there would be less of an inbalance between players.
Skillful tatics would be awarded in duels rather than ridiculous amounts of time spent on the game leveling. More of a equal playing feild for those players who have busy lives and can't dedicate their entire life to faldon.  wink

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

Yea, but lvl cap would achieve something like that as well. The idea is, that it is still possible to gain an advantage over other players. But just like in real life, it does not increase anywhere close to linearly.

A sportsman who trains 60 hours a week is not gonna run the 100 meter sprint in 2/3 of the time of someone who trains 40 a week. Moreover, the 2nd athlete might actually win if he has more of a 'talent' (read: PKing skill/tactics) than the hard training one. Well, something like that was my idea. The only way it will really work though, is in conjunction with spawns that limit levels achievable reasonably. Last client hardly anyone was over lvl 200 for a long time... then new wyrms came, were massively used and lvl 300 became the new unwritten lvl cap (sorta) (though prolly if last client had been allowed to run its course as long as this one has, ppl wouldve gone way beyond that eventually)

Also dueling would hopefully be more interesting with lower damage. Imagine spending like more than 5 seconds fighting another warrior before dying, lol...  that allows for a lot more long-stretched tactics and make food more important too, whereas now all that really matters is having enough dmg to apply 3-hit rule, something to stop critical hits, decent ar weapon and stepping-skill. smile

Ah well, as I said before... better not get too far ahead of ourselves.

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

Crov and I have had discussions of this nature many many times.

Basically, i'm in favor of a system with a harder levelling curve, and revamping almost all combat/stats.  A level cap wouldn't serve a whole lot of purpose, though.

Re: should there be a limit to the lvl u can reach ?

Wouldnt it be just as simple to let people lvl higher but make the gains less~

I mean if someone is lvl 200 and the top lvl in game is 200 then they are effectively the strongest....if someone is 500 and the top is 500 then same deal.

It all needs balancing anyways.

I dont think the problem is with lvling anyways...i think it is more to do with the game only rewarding lvling and not much else.

I'm opening up a shop that sells 13" rulers just so Fireborn stops complaining.
