Random event stuff from Diango?

[Fiery_Gyr]

I made a topic about the f2p banks. They are too small.

 

 

 

This came as a solution:

 

 

 

If you drop or lose a random event item, you should be able to get a new one from Diango. Just like the holiday-items.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ppl could save lots of bank slots, because they dont have to keep all that "once-you-lose-it-you-will-never-get-it-back-stuff".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know that some ppl dont care about those items, but I'm a "collecteresse" (or whatever the female form may be >.<) and I would like to keep my random-eventstuff.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone else who loves this idea? :)

ahem...so people can collect an unlimited # of shade robes and camo armour and get very rich-tough luck,I almost like this idea.

They fixed camo a long time ago, like about a week after it was released. As for shade, naturally since that is tradeable you wouldnt get it back. He means clothes like Prince's Outfit, Frog Masks, Leiderhosen, Mime, and Camo. And quite frankly, I agree with him.

[Unrealist]

Agreed, but since it's outfits, shouldn't it be varrock clothes shop?

SHE! o.O

 

 

 

But you're right. I meant the untradable clothes. I dont mind where I could get them back (either Diango or clotheshop), I'm happy if I could get them back.

[kudos6969]

yeah good idea people would wear more if they knew theyd get them back if they died

[stove44]

yeah i agree with this feature, cus i got pk'ed and lost my camo legs.... was unhappy for a few days :(

[Raichase]

I agree as well. Much better than begging for more F2P bank space, advantages both F2P and P2P equally, and I don't know why it only happens for some items and not others, which is a bit silly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spam Jagex with this suggestion, it's a good one.

[Fiery_Gyr]

I send mail to Jagex. Any members who wanna do that too? Cuz Jagex reads those mails. (that might help :P)

[stevepole]

i say bad idea. f2p have to get over the fact that then need new features when there playing a free version of the game. You get what you pay for.

This also benefits p2p since they can also cut down on bank space, no?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So don't start the whole "f2p-gets-what-they-pay-for-which-equals-nothing" controversy. :P

Give him a slow clap people.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Show him he's clever.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Really, this advantages P2P as much as, if not more than a F2P person, and it's not really something you can push members with "not only do you get more bank space, but you can get your random event junk back if you die!!!".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not a big selling point. If I was happy with everything F2P, including bank size (which I am on my F2P only acc.), then this option would hardly make me want to be a member.

[Sp00nLord]

Yeah very good idea imo, not that useful for frog outfits as you seem to get them every other day, but with mime (Had 3 in 1 1/2+ years of playing) and camo and leiderhosen (never had either) which are alot rarer, for free players to keep even 1 full set is a huge waste of bank space, which could be used for more practical gear such as rune or d hide.

[harper128]

Since I thought this idea was a good one, and since I like it, I'm going to bump it back up to the front page. Also, with the new Zombie outfits, I thought it fitting to be brought back up before people start begging for more f2p bank space again.

 

 

 

Finally, I want to see if I can expand upon this idea. Mostly because there is a plethoria of frog tokens out there, I have several sitting in the bank myself.

 

 

 

As we all know, well most of us anyway, there are randoms which give you articles of clothing as a reward. These items are non-tradeable (this only has bearing on the non-tradeable items). Arguments can be made for and against the value of these items, as far as I can tell, they are for fun. Nothing else. But, with the rarity of some of the randoms, people are reluctant to part with some of the clothing types. Mime, Lederhosen(sp?), and Camo being high on that list.

 

 

 

To combat this reluctance to lose the items, reduce bank space used, and allow more of the items into the game, a player will recieve the respective item from the random and be able to take it to the Varrock clothing shop and give it to the seamstress.

 

 

 

She will then be able to reproduce the clothing for you (and only you) for a small fee (money sink). However, if you bring her a repetitive item, such as bringing her a frog token when you already have gotten the prince/princess outfit and the frog mask, she will allow you to choose a piece of another outfit, such as choosing a mime mask, perhaps having a heirachy for the items for the order in which you must get "other" items(i.e. frog first, zombie next, mime next, forester, then camo, or whatever). You can also "cash" in the token/item for, 100-500 coins maybe? (leo gives out 500 if you've already got the outfit and the emotes).

 

 

 

As to why I would like people to be able to get the outfits easier...well, maybe I am...sorry, no maybe there, I am silly, but I think it would be humorous to be able to go into wildy in full mime and just annoy people until they kill me. Honestly, who would pass up the chance to trounce a mime climbing a rope (the only mime emote I have so far. :D )

 

Also, just imagine if you will, clans using the outfits to distinguish themselves instead of the capes. Full clan war of Zombies vs Mimes, Foresters vs Frogs. You could also play out Night of the Living Dead or any other classic zombie movie up in wildy. It would be FUN.

 

 

 

Personally, I would also allow the F2P players to gain random clothing items that were P2P only this way, although they would not be able to have access to them unless they became P2P. That way, when they did become P2P, they could get the clothing instead of having to work through a bunch more randoms (Are there random clothing items that are only P2P?).

 

 

 

Anyway, I know it's not perfect, would anyone else care to help flesh it out a bit more?

[evil_me999]

this is a good idea and i like it but somehow i dont like it in a way but oh well that doesnt matter

[aaron5140]

Perhaps implemented in the same way as the "ectophile" or "cooking/smithing/mage gauntlets" if you loose them you can get the back by seeing the person who gave them to you. Also Diango already holds items from the last xmas special, saving you space.

 

 

 

But I like the idea of the Varrock Clothes Store, but you can only get what you lost not what you never had. Alternatively they could have locations all over RS where you can go to the Happy Forrester or the Mime Theatre even to pick up replacements.
