New Ideas

this is the worse thing i could possibly do .. use the forum as my personal notepad. I want to put items on deserted characters back in play. solution: items can have the land mark on them and return to a central dispatch place when their owner goes missing in action for more than x days. some items could be for temporary use directly issue: some items are role or character specific or of great personal value to the owner. Some dinosaurs paid a lot for some items or won them as rewards, and they might not be always active but when they return once a year , it would be a tragedy to find their beloved item on someone else. Trading temporary use items would be a…

I did a quick search and was a little surprised that I couldn't find it...maybe I'm just bad at searching X.x So, it'd be really nice if there was something in the MDShop to rename creatures. Sure it can be done through trading, but I'd rather pay a dollar than lose some age on one of my babies (maybe that should go in "You know you've been playing too much when"...or maybe I'm just lazy and don't want to level them up again X.x). So yeah.

One thing that occurs to me and has been frustrating me is this: Honour. At the moment if you are balanced almost everyone seems to give you a minus honour value. Right now Eon gives me minus 185 honour if I attack him and win. As such the system seems to regard Eon as a weaker player than I am. The truth however, is that Eon is by far the stronger player in combat. I should really be getting an honour bonus if I manage to defeat him (probably a free car or something too ). I think that it should be changed to reflect the total number of fights or stats or something like that. Another option might even be to compare the number of wins of the attacker and defender. C…

Due to once again increasing problems, i, again, want to propose an idea to stop alts from bashing on newbies. Since GGG ceased, there are only minor problems with monstrous stats left, and people now take their massively aged, tokened and traded creatures and transfer them to mp3 to create new god accounts. So now, instead of banning certain creatures from certain mps, i'd like to implement MP-level as an upgrade requirement for creatures in general. The most important to me appear to be angiens, which should get requirement mp4 for level 3+ and mp5 for level 6+, drachorns, with mp4 for level 3+ and specially the rusts and reins, and probably other crit-boosters, wi…

As it seems crits are becoming more and more individualized (names, tokens) maybe it would be a good idea to add a crit history for every crit: when did it belong to whom, when was it tokened. If it makes sense also MD item in extra features 'clean crit history' EDIT: also crit exp transfer also make them more individual

I see a more reasonable change to be able to create att/def rituals [b]without[/b] the need to have available targets within sight, but I want to hear the [b]cons [/b]for that. Sorry Fyrd, if you think this is spam I will remove it.

I'd like an option that allows us to turn the chat beep louder or quieter. As LHO, i need to hear that thing even when i'm listening to music or watching a movie, but at other times i'd like to turn it down to concentrate on other things. Would be an awesome feature

This is just an idea I have been fiddling with. The basic idea is that a king will announce monthly, or bi weekly, or whatever, that a King's Court will be announced. People can go to the King with ideas of how to make the land better, with new quest or contest ideas, ask for sponsorship and or make a public complaint against someone. Now, this does not have to be for land citizens only. Say for instance, person from land x wanted sponsorship for quest y, and goes to land z's king regarding it. This would help them to get an immediate response regarding the sponsorship, and would help to kind of chew out the ideas a little bit in the process. King's court can …

I believe strongly that the game needs and will benefit from having more nonplayer games characters (NPCs) to fight in game. Also, adding VE regeneration for all Monsters, even if it's very low, In my opinion, will help sped game play.

Not sure If it has been suggested before, but i really don't have time to check. I suggest the ability of renaming rituals. I have a lot that I confuse all the times, so this can be very useful.

Would be cool to be able to leave a "stamp" -- some sort of minor illustration -- on the scenes for any eyes to see. Perhaps these would be little colored butterflies, flowers, mushrooms, skulls, footprints, fingerprints, cigarette butts, bloodstains, torn hem of cloth, etc. Would be massively useful in leaving trails for clues for mystery quests. They would obviously have to expire in a specified time-frame. There is probably going to be concern about screening the allowed stamps - so I guess there would have to be an approved list or pallet that grows over time.

[quote]You can edit items in general but this item already has its assigned owner. Only Muratus del Mur (ID:1028) can edit this item.[/quote] Currently, the first person to "use" a usable item becomes the sole owner and editor of an item. This causes issues when, for example here, someone previously has also got the item editing ability, and "bound" it to them. Then, when you aquire the item, and wish to code on it, you cannot because they "own" the scripting rights. But, on the other hand, you dont want to give the item as a quest, and give them the ability to see all the code. Here i suggest being able to "lock" an item script. This would mean that no one could ed…

As you might remember, i'm a big fan of balance. And a big opponent of being off balance to maximize personal gain on the back of newbies. So, there i sit around, pondering what all big fighters have in common, and it strikes: VE and Combo! All the big, evil fighting guys have a lot of VE and a lot of Combo, which they need for a multitude of things these days. Few of them value balance, because balance means that you can't hit on the weak targets. Therefore, i a new attempt to make balance attractive, i propose that combo boost gets directly connected to the balance of the user. I'd imagine that connection as rather simple function that decreases the size of the co…

I'd like to propose a new button that re-synchronizes the regeneration timer without refreshing the whole page. I think to remember that Mur once said that refreshing the whole page puts quite a strain on the server, and i bet there are quite a few people who do that regularly just because they want their timer to be correct for various activities.

As trading for credits seems to be legal (http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/9281-stopping-buying-things-with-credits) non-paying players are handicapped - also paying members with massive balance accumulated by high regular contributions. I suggest implementing new feature - balance transfer to send specified number of credits between players' accounts. To prevent massive alt abuses it would be activated deep in extra features section and all regular alt checks for transactions would apply. Please comment

It would be nice to be able to rearrange existing defense rituals, say by a click-and-drag function or move arrows or such. This way you could move your favorite defense ritual to the front without having to erase all the others out there. Present a batch of trees in the park, then a hard defense when you venture forth, then easily go back to trees when training... You could define a block of 20 ritual A and a block of 20 ritual B then rearrange them to alternate A-B-A-B- instead of having to define 40 rituals one at a time... I suppose you should be able to do this whenever you can access your rituals -- which I'd like to be able to do when alone, but that's anoth…

The following text obviously is not towards apophys, but most likely towards Mur and the MP6 crew. What if the power to MAX those creatures is taken from the players and given to their protectors? The active ones can easily gather and set requirements, which each one worshiper should fulfill. The protectors can be given the freedom to determine how many of the worshiper's creatures could be upgraded, depending on how the player managed to handle the requirements. I would love to read your thoughts on this.

So I am lost in the new eastern lands map and while looking at the map I realized... it doesn't help because I still have no clue where I am lol I think a "You are here" indicator would be really great to have if something like that would even be possible.

I've been scanning through the avatar shop recently, and I've been noticing the diversity of the avatars that have been uploaded. I see a couple of old ones, usually, mixed with a lot of terribly made avatars, and then a few new uploads that are of decent quality. Perhaps there should be a medal awarded for people who upload high quality avatars? My thinking here is that it may possibly encourage the productivity and quality of avatar uploads in the future. Just a thought, an achievement or something would work for the idea too. (Now, this is just going by the thought that you can track who uploaded what avatar.)

The mood panel is a great way of sending player's own personal or non personal announcement to the MD world but how about getting it more interactive? Time: It would be nice if the postings can show the time it was posted. Maybe time posted shows when the cursor is hovering over the intended posting? Message: It would also be nice if when clicking on the player's name in mood panel allows for messaging, like having friend list. The suggestions comes to mind coz sometimes events are posted there that says "Come now I am giving away GG Drachs at MDP" and I rush there to see that the event has finished 6 hours earlier. Or seeing something interesting in Mood Panel bu…

One of the main things I notice amongst newer players is that they have trouble finding the [Restrictions] and [Free credits] links at the top of the page. Both of these are important links, the first to help prevent unnecessary conflict and frustration, and the second to help support MD. My suggestion is to make the [Restrictions] link behave like the [View Announcements] link, highlighting Red if it hasn't been viewed or if the page has been updated, and returning to grey/brown once viewed; and the [Free credits] link to be permanently green. It won't guarantee that they will find them, read them, or use them, but I think it will improve the odds.

[font="Comic Sans MS"][color="#483D8B"]I'm not sure if it's just me or maybe I have some type of internal setting set up the wrong way...but I think background music while you're in the game and playing would be wonderful to have. I think it definitely help and aide to set the mood etc.[/color][/font]

Well, the topic sums it up: Implementing an option that enables or disables the loading of token art during fights, in ritual creation and on the creatures page. Pro's: Would make it easier on us with lousy connections/ PCs Con's: Time to code it...

http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/9290-vp-function/ Since he didnt even provide a a decent 3 point scale (always use odd points, gives people neutral ground) i have gone and made a topic to discuss it. And its rather poor form to allow people just to vote, than let others suggest a better way vp could be used and such. Vp for me is only really used when i need to get out of a VP hole when training, and it doesnt usually last long because of the large amount of value points you can attain all at once. Adding a vp limit for some, merely means that you are limiting certain things to grinders who have worked on their VP massively, or someone who gets a burst and g…

There are lots of spells and items that change chatting. Spells Silvertounge Frog Silence Items Bottle of Liquid Dutch Bottle of Liquid French (and one or two other of those...)
