right, i understand what your saying. i only said hotspot because of the sheer size of them! but this is certainly evolving into a minigame in its own right, eh?

multiple bases per clan is rather a stupid idea, as the best PVP clans will end up with all of them all the time.

True, but you can simply banlance that out with simple maths. The more bases owned by a clan; the random events will be more powerful and more common; creatures will go after those bases more; people could be shown which clans own the most bases; and there could be rewards for destroying bases. Destroying a base of a clan who owns loads gives you a better reward. This would bring down thier base numbers.

 

 

 

As for being a Mini-Game, how about the mini-game covers the whole of the map, then they could be a option to view the base stats via an option which you can only access in PvP worlds. It would be real involving this way. If it was a mini-game it would have to have some NCP Bases or something, I'll work on this... ;)

minibump! :-w

Interesting.

 

 

 

I think this would go better with a mini-game as opposed to PvP as it could cause serious rape issues.

 

 

 

For example if a clan was to setup camp around each teleport location as well as the only escape routes (take canfis for example).

 

It would lead to whole places becoming no go zones or instant kill zones.

 

 

 

I I'd like the idea that if you had high enough firemaking you could set the place alight killing or seriously damaging/effecting the occupier. As it would give people a reason to train firemaking.

 

 

 

PS this reminds me of the towers of LoTR.

How exactly will these fortresses be able to fit in a flatpack? You're talking about something that is a couple stories tall, braced with wood, and made of metals like mithril and rune.

How exactly will two billion gp fit in your backpack? Or 28 rune ores? 10000000 arrows?

 

 

 

I think the base idea is quite good and will make certain useless skills like firemaking more useful. But maybe the base's size should be reduced by a bit as it might cause lag if there were like 5+ bases around.

 

 

 

I have a suggestion: maybe there would be certain "fixed" areas to build fortresses, that are not too near to chokepoints so people can't instant ko people walking out of the town/whatever (btw after teleport there would be a temporary invulnerability shield). Then there would be more competition for the better spots so it will result in more clan combat.

Granted, there is a stretch to what you can fit in your inventory. But this is not something like arrows, which (in smaller amounts) are reasonably expected to fit in a backpack. When you start moving into being able to assemble entire buildings in a short period of time, that crosses the boundary of acceptable realism for me.

Suspension of disbelief, Granzi, my friend.

 

 

 

Plus we can already stuff a huge table made of blocks of marble and gold leaves into a small piece of wood, it's not many steps above it.

 

 

 

Although perhaps there should be just pieces, like the Northern Wall or something. And remember it's not a huge towering fort, it's a small one.

precisely. the forts in the OP are nothing more than four walls. you could carry the wooden ones on your back without much trouble, IMO.

Just had an idea, make it like the Shade burning minigame (the temple repair/building section).

Ok-if carrying a fortress on your back is impossible, then how come you can lug like 10,000,000,000 coins around? If a coin weighs 50g, this would be 500,000 tonnes heavy, and I bet you, this will weigh more than a fortress that size.
