You know... I thought of a solution that would keep both of us happy: Add bios with Stats.

You see, When you add stats, you need to add a way of seeing those stats on a character. This means making a thing to hover or click on like in AQ or DF. Then you add the bios to a section in that . BAM! We get Stats AND Bios.[;)]




DidYouKnowThat -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 5:47:28)

@MegaKyle: Yeah dude, I agree. Bios are awesome! And if done correctly, very nice to read.

I also wonder if Character Bio's can help us guess/predict future storylines, etc. . . . such as Skexis, when they supposedly ''finally introduced themselves.''
Where have they been hiding? Perhaps it could lead us to some hidden spot, dungeon, where we'll find some epic things. ...

You know, it can help us find some secret places, etc. Strategy! Puzzles! Mystery! Hah! That'd be fun. . . which adds to the idea of my ''Wishing Well'' idea I put in the ''What would you like to see'' topic. . Mystery, etc.

And yeah, it does open up new possibilities.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Speaking of Pokémon....because of Oversoul, I've been watching sooooo many Pokémon Wifi-battles recently. .. and even attempted to go back playing with my old games. :P

@Megakyle: Aren't stats planned?! :O

I'm looking forward to the speed stat, finally solves who goes first, fairly, instead of dictating it upon the person who accepts/sends challenge.

Stats + Resistance + Artifacts (Hold-Items) :D




megakyle777 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 5:53:03)

Stats are a planned thing far as I know. What I'm saying is this: you need to create a space to see stats, both your own and your foes. Add bios for each char to that space when it comes out. Problem solved. They do not need to be too long, something akin to how AQ classic handles it would work.

And agreeed. This is the sort of thing I'm on about. It could lead to hidden secrets, plot discussions ETC. THIS IS WHY IT IS IMPORTANT. This stuff fuels games like this, and OS needs that.




Mondez -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 5:57:22)

I'm actually hoping for multiple characters in battle to be released first so they can get a foundation on the elemental resistances later on besides I like training multiple characters over a single mass grind of one.




DidYouKnowThat -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:00:25)

OR......OR!!! . . .. .

We can do this.....

Character Bios will be a giant book. It will be OUR Book of Lore. :)

Only the Character Bios of characters we have encountered/possessed will be available to us. The ones we have not seen, the character will only have its silhouette visible, and it will be blacked out with
a bunch of question marks.

You see, if we battle it and LOSE the battle, we only get the ''Forms'' added. So we know how it looked but nothing else. We get the stats/cards info once we beat it in battle, and description when we
possess it maybe? Not sure.

Yeah. . .Pokedex. . ...xD but changed a bit.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@Mondez -> You mean 2 vs. 1 or 1 vs. 3 or something? or 2v2?

Or do you mean being able to switch characters?




megakyle777 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:03:01)

Except that there are rare characters unlike pokemon. So a few pages on that Soul Book would be forever blank and shadowy. You could put them in a special Rares page, but even then it would be annoying for some.




DidYouKnowThat -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:04:27)

@MegaKyle: Oh that is true now isn't it?

So maybe to get the full stats, you don't have to Possess it, just encounter, battle, and beat it?

PvP you know! :D

(edit) oh but then again, you can't encounter the rare ones who evolved .. which is like almost 100% . . . ok nevermind terrible idea.

Lol, my whole idea is terrible. XD

But either way, Bios will be very interesting. Although who will compose them? The community? But then if it is done by the community, I doubt it'll make my dream come true about how
it'll hold secrets of hidden dungeons/ puzzles/ hints/ etc. . . .

Unless he edits a bit of course when he feels like it. . . and then we'll have the responsibility of always checking them to make sure if clues have appeared or not. xD




megakyle777 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:16:42)

It is a lot of work. Since there are so many chars right now, I recommend holding a contest for us to write ones for the current in game chars, with staff writing future ones.




DidYouKnowThat -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:19:50)

Mmhmm! Mmhmm. . .. I'm liking that idea. Contest! :D

You should post that in ''What Would You Like To See?'' topic. .. I'm assuming Nulgath and co. check there. . .right? o.o




The Death Angel -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:21:57)

Problem would be that Nulgath has probaly already envisioned a storyline/bios for some characters.




DidYouKnowThat -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:24:12)

So maybe he could do this ->

Available Storyline/Bios -> Character List:

1.
2.
3.
4.
etc.

Basically give us a list of the character that still need bios. . . .




megakyle777 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:29:16)

Exactly. Contest chars and chars with bios already would be off limits.




The Jop -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:35:13)

There's already this.




bartirix -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 6:36:34)

@Jop, thanks, thats really nice.. Might post something there Owo




Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 7:24:36)

I guess Bios thread need to get more active, I shall give some stories on some characters on I am free.




DarkLore -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 7:31:04)

I actually made a character bio once on the archlich. He was a necromancer that was killed by Artix and became an archlich.




Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 7:35:43)

But Artix didn't appear in OS.




DarkLore -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 7:39:33)

Yeah, but the archlich was in AQW's world before going through the oblivion gate. It sounds sketchy , but he got there before Nulgath did. He was powerful enough to open it only very briefly.




Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 7:47:47)

Interesting, there is some connection between OS and AQW and I would love to see one of the OS storyline focusing on the connection between OS and AQW with that oblivion gateway. There is a big mystery about the Oblivion gateway that we don't seem to know that much. We only know it lead to OS realm but who developed it and what is his purpose is unknown. So many mysteries relating to Nulgath, Notlim, Suinotlim, the "Old One" and even the Oblivion Gateway.




BJEBLE -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 11:08:00)

@Darklore My Arch Lich is level 19 now.[8D][:)]Anyways, I can't wait for the release! DFR is here, I hope it's element is a wise choice.




Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 11:18:38)

@BJEBLE
If you check its properties, you can see its element is shadow. Shadow character or not, I hope DFR will be very fun and strong to use. :)

I got to leave now. I will see you guys tomorrow. See you all!




bei4 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 11:22:10)

Yeaah dragon fiend rider coming i also hope for something extra but wi‘ll see .




DarkLore -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 12:00:19)

I'll be having fried dragonknight if he ends up being right about his joke of me not getting DFR because it will be sg's.
LOL!




The Death Angel -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 12:06:39)

From a business point of view, making it SG would make sense. It's not very ethic though, but then again, Nulgath makes the character for us on HIS birthday, I would not even moan about it if it was SG.
Admittedly, I do expect a lot of whining if it happens to be SG, though it's been in most traditions that birthday items cost AC in AQW. Might be different seeing how we obtained Revontheus last year.




The Jop -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 139 - READ THE FIRST POST (1/16/2014 12:11:25)

Yeah, right, a lot of whining. Most free players abandoned Oversoul after X-Boosts came out. The majority of paying players that make up the community probably aren't going to complain much since they can buy it.
