Training

(NEWBIE) Lenzar: Wow. Train steals 2k for nothing.

(NEWBIE) Lenzar: What a rip.

(NEWBIE) Lenzar: Can an imm delete my account please?

So of course I started to lightly make fun of this person but in all seriousness why is there even stat training other than to fuck up newbies on gains? I’ve leveled a ton of characters and always work around this and don’t even have a problem with it personally because I’m so used to it but there seems to be absolutely no reason we need to start with 50k credits and 3 less than racial trained max in stats. The 50k has covered the training maybe once ever, and anyone who doesn’t know about the training ends up with a borked character the first time around.

It’s one of those awful outdated mechanics that has been bred out completely by the modern MMORPG that we really need to get rid of if we plan to survive the coming decade.

That’s fair.

Anything else been bred out by MMOs while we’re talking about it?

Text. MMOs use way less text. We need to go graphical.

Runescape-LOTJ.

With Battlestar Galactica Online space battles.

OOC channel is an outdated mechanic that should be replaced by modern MMORPG channels such as General, Trade, and LFG. Let us go one step further and say space travel should be instant like TOR.

You’re saying make the hyperspace wait be loadtime?

Nah. Just the landing, launching, entering the ship, and leaving the ship. 😛
