Ok, so I think warfare achievements won. I'll be working with Ross and bcfcespley to get those finished, I thought we were closer to being ready with them than we actually are so may take a little longer than planned. Keep an eye on bcfcespley's thread in the main forums if you want to have your say on how they will work!

Ok, so here is a fun experiment. I'm going to list the major projects I currently have on my "To Do List" baring in mind my list is like 30+ items long of varying scale. This list is in the order I intended to do them, post in comments which you most want to see. Whichever gets the most votes I will drop everything, work on right now, and get finished before any of the others.

o New Abilities for Avatars (2 weeks)
o AJAX based Combat System (4 weeks)
o Moving Guards (Kind of requires the combat system though) (4 weeks)
o Level 80 - 90 NPCs and Tier 2 Avatar items (1 week)
o Warfare Achievements (2 weeks)

These are the 5 major things on my list, the current plan is to do them in that order. The time in weeks is how long I think they would take, baring in mind my estimates are normally way off but it gives some idea for comparison.

The new legendary Vivi bundle now has a special set bonus, equipping all 5 of the Vivi items will result in your characters body and eyes changing to match the character. If you do not wish to use this look you will need to remove part of it like the gloves or boots.

This is a trial of the concept but it seems to work well, future legendary bundles may come with bonus effects that only appear when the entire bundle is worn at once. Enjoy!

Making games is tricky, lots of choices, so many opinions... some louder than others. I've had quite a few requests for new boosts, like decrease time re-entering the wasteland boosts and such. There is a line a lot of games try not to cross and it seems we already crossed it anyway when we added + ability boosts.

The question is where do we draw the new line, do we say Abilities and Trades are ok but we're not letting you buy any advantage elsewhere? Or do we say warfare / abilities are ok but you can't buy any advantages in jobs or XP? Obviously some games do not care about this line and they generally end in disaster, selling XP boosts, in-game items, everything basically makes anyone who is not rich not want to play.

It's an important question and I think it needs to be decided right now before anything else is added to the platinum store. What is off limits when it comes to buying with platinum? XP, Jobs, Warfare, Stats, Items?

I'm posting this as a blog because then you get only 1 comment each, think it through before posting please.
