I think there should be more stuff in the game besides fighting. Fighting should be one of the main things in the game but there should be other skills. Everyone likes fighting but you need a break every once in a while. If you have any suggestions then please post them. Like maby some of the ones from runescape.

I'd suggest more dancing animations.

There should be more options and competitions to choose from. Like mount racing, trade and market, use your imagination :)

Even though I posted no I like fighting for an answer, I do think that for as many different mounts that there are, a racing challenge would be nice, upgrades for your mount, your mount having its own stats, things like that.
Maybe having a race track built, similar to the way a KQ is. Although this might require a new game engine itself, its a good idea but would require alot of programming.
Another thing would be having mini games, similar to an arcade, and Again if there was a town soly devoted to this, similar to the way Gold Saucer was in FF7, thatd just be one more way for players to make copper and silver and possibly Gold.
Maybe having a lottery system for players, but preventing the spammers from having access to this by making the limit for it at lvl 25, maybe having to do a long quest for a lottery tickit and having the tickets binded to the character, so that you couldn't leave them in storage, and you couldn't trade them or drop them, maybe like a timed item. So that lets say you have a ticket, it goes in your inventory and lasts 7 days, then when the numbers are announced and you win, your ticket magically turns into copper/silver/ or even gold.
But on the same thought, if there were minigames, they would have to require tokens to play, and again the tokens could be bought from NPCs but not traded, sold, put in storage, or dropped without being destroyed. Just to keep it away from the gold and bot spammers.
It would be an interesting idea, but I dont see it happening until this game reaches final release, if even that.
A good idea would be that if maybe a year from now, if this game is still going well, possibly having an expansion for Isya and making it possible to explore totally different lands.
The last idea is probably the best, since you cant go wrong with an expansion, but again with this, I would limit the expansion to being able to get it through the cash shop. Just to keep away, the botters and spammers again that way they can't get to the new maps.
But before they start talking about adding any new features like this, I think they should focus on the main lag problem from spammers, and bots.

So what does that have to do with fighting? I gave a suggestion beyond fighting. Not good enough for you? :P

Please, tell the GMs about this. This guy here is a genius :D. Maybe Fiesta can bring down the monopoly of Maplestory :P

Cash shop would be a horrible unfair way if its still in beta, although, look at uruga, NO bots.. cause theres pricey scrolls or gotta be extremely high lvl, so the best way would be to have even higher priced scrolls, and even harder to get to. =D

For most production skills they require fighting. I like fighting but I need a break once in a while.
If some fiesta/outspark staff reads this please tell the people who make this game to read this
p.s. everyone keep the posts/suggestions coming

I love the dancing animations! and Maybe one for swimming. There was a MMORPG in 2000 that had YMCA, but no swimming animation while in the water. that alwasy bugged me.
MORE Dancing MORE Swimming! MORE PvP! More Fried Chicken and Cool Aid!

Mining, Foraging, Merchanting, Shroomin' up. (okay, not the last one, but the others are not fighting.)
I agree there could be more - and maybe will be eventually. Some good ideas in this thread, although I don't want anymore lottery type systems. The enhancing 'game' has already beat me up with chances. x.x
Some mini-games might be interesting though. Would take a lot of work on OutSparks part though.
As for now though, I am not to concerned. There are... bigger fish to fry. (bots/spammers) But we can hope to see some new stuff eventually.

Yes! MINIGAMES! The rewards must be tokens and if you get more and more, you will be able to choose between rare stuff like little dragon minihouse or chicken sword and osther cool stuff! :DDD
And yes...LOTTERY! Thats a good idea! Players can buy lottery tickets for 5copper, 10 copper, 50c, 100c...etc. and there will be a draw on all weeks! Perhaps you will win 100S (the star prize XD).
Sorry for my bad English :)))

Now, I may just be a stupid newbie, but when I get tired of killing stuff, I just log off or set up shop and step away from the computer for a while. Then, when I want to kill more stuff, I come back and have an extra 14s. :D
I guess I understand what you're saying, but What more do you want?? :confused:

Oh I dunno, something fun? :p
Grinding isn't much fun to me... which is why I'll end up staying level 47 forever. I just need something else to do... Guild Wars and mining in Golden Cave are about the best things left. And talking to my guildies of course. ^^
