Following the recent move of the party room from Seers village, and especially after the changes to the party room, it has become near impossible to use this feature for 'private' parties.

 

 

 

I don't know about you, but I don't like sharing my items with complete strangers, most of which are noobs and beggars. But I'd also like to be able to use the neat balloon system to host drop parties. So... why not give player owned houses an update that can make this possible?

 

 

 

Now, onto the idea.

 

 

 

The Party Room

 

This room will require a construction level of 80 to build, and will cost 500,000 coins. This may seem a little high, but for such a cool feature, it should really require a high construction level to build.

 

 

 

Here's a general idea of what the room would look like:

 

 

 

 

The Chest

 

Unlike the official party room's chest, the one in this room has a very finite number of items it can hold, based on the materials it is made out of, although it will be a similar interface.

 

 

 

Like the party room's chest, you will NOT be able to withdraw items once you put them in; you have to pull the lever and let them drop in balloons. This will make it a bit inconvenient for anyone who would try to use the chest as extra bankspace; and also, you can't put nontradables in the chest.

 

 

 

Chest types:

 

Normal wood chest

 

Holds up to 3 types of items

 

Level 80 Construction to build

 

Reqires 5 normal planks, 5 nails, 4 steel bars, and a clockwork mechanism

 

 

 

Oak Chest

 

Holds up to 5 types of items

 

Level 84 Construction to build

 

Requires 5 oak planks, 6 steel bars, and a clockwork mechanism

 

 

 

Teak Chest

 

Holds up to 8 types of items

 

Level 88 Construction to build

 

Requires 5 teak planks, 6 steel bars, and a clockwork mechanism

 

 

 

Mahogany Chest

 

Holds up to 10 types of items

 

Level 92 Construction to build

 

Requires 5 mahogany planks, 2 steel bars, 1 gold leaf, and a clockwork mechanism

 

 

 

Magic Chest

 

Holds up to 15 types of items

 

Level 96 Construction to build

 

Requires 2 Magic stones

 

 

 

If you're wondering why a clockwork mechanism is required on most of the chests; it's because there needs to be some kind of mechanism to drop the items. Of course the magic chest dosen't need one, because the mechanism would be entirely "magical" :wink:

 

 

 

The Lever

 

 

 

It's just like the lever in the party room. You pull it, and the items come out of the chest. The only difference here is that only the owner of the house is allowed to pull it. It also requires 1000 coins to pull. Why? Well balloons cost something, don't they :P

 

 

 

Lever types don't really matter as better levers just look prettier, but here they are anyway:

 

 

 

Lever Types:

 

Oak Lever

 

80 Construction to build

 

Requires 5 Oak planks

 

 

 

Teak Lever

 

85 Construction to build

 

Requires 5 Teak planks

 

 

 

Mahogany Lever

 

90 Construction to build

 

Requires 5 Mahogany planks and 1 gold leaf

 

 

 

Other items

 

 

 

The rug and decorative items are pretty much the same items and construction levels required as in other rooms.

I like the idea, but the lever types would be unnecessary, as they don't add to the idea, really. Unless, you could say, maybe the fancier the lever, the lower the cost to drop the balloons?

it sounds good, but u can just do it yourself,

 

i'd get it if it was available, balloons own!

Yes, I know they are unnecessary. But there are a lot of unnecessary items like this in the POH, like thrones, the different levers in the throne room, decorations, rugs, beds, and the list goes on there...

I like the idea, but I'm concerned that it would be abused by Real World Traders. I know they wouldn't have the construction level, but their friends might. Jagex went to a lot of bother updating the public party room, and I think it's a subject that should be left alone for a while.

very nice idea, I support this. I'm fine with the new update but wouldnt call myself HAPPY

That's actually part of the reason why I set it to such a high con level.

 

 

 

Would some RWTers abuse this? Yes.

 

 

 

But really, Jagex is going to too much trouble to stop RWTers. If I had a choice between:

 

 

 

1. More fun features with a few more RWTers

 

OR

 

2. Fewer RWTers but less fun features

 

 

 

I choose 1 lol.

Well you didn't use it before. Now your complaining about it?

 

 

 

If you really want a drop party use:

 

Right click -> Drop

This is a suggestion, not a rant. That was an introduction, not a whine.

 

 

 

Dropping items is all fine and good, but IMO the balloons thing makes it a bit more fair, since the items contained in the balloons are random. Is it necessary? No. Would it be an improvement? I think so.

Suppose, I don't do many drop parties so i wouldn't know, but it's a good idea.

Ill bet ANYTHING you never used the old one when it was en route to the bank but now its out of the way you want something more thats p2p only that would probably get never used.

 

And the new one is OUT OF THE WAY just use it for once and if your that desperate for private right click and drop this is far from an improvement just a whine about not having the party house (that you never used) in f2p.

Wrong, I actually did use it a few times when it was p2p only, when I was cleaning out my bank of hard to sell items (good thing for GE, don't have to do that anymore :thumbsup:). That's beside the point, anyway...

 

 

 

The only reason why hardly anybody used it in p2p anyway was because most clans and others throwing private drop parties wanted to avoid noobs, so before PoH's they used very secluded areas, and after PoHs a lot of people started using that. So yeah, if a lot of people already use their PoHs for drop parties, why not add this feature?

 

 

 

Yeah, you can still use right click -> drop, DUH... I can live without this feature just like I can live without an organized bank feature, but both ideas would improve the game, thus why they were thought up and posted.

Yeah this is nice, especially when you want to have a 99 party and drop stuff in balloons (before it was somewhat not possible, now it's impossible) to your friends. I fully support and hope this gets into the game.

Because everything you say is a great idea...

Never said my idea was all that great. I basically just said that I thought the concept would be an improvement; doubtful that if Jagex ever considered this they'd implement it as I have it.

 

 

 

But I know you're going to continue being negative, picking apart my statements and flaming them, that's just who you are. Hence I think it would be worthless to waste any more time on you...

A nice idea, in my opinion. I like it.
