Mekenshi Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 I was walking home today, and I was thinking about a song called Wings of Dispair by Kamelot. In the weird way my mind works that went to real people flying, to runescape characters flying(An idea for my next post? Lol.), to floating cities. I just thought it would be cool if there were cities in the sky, and you could look to the ground. There could be bridges and a flying race of people. Just a thought. Any idea's/comments? Updates This post is getting alot of positive feed back, so I decided to put a bunch of the idea's in the first post, like a summary. The city would have city stuff, like a bank, general store, maybe some special shops, an alter, ect. The NPCs would fly. Could be angelic, dragonic, demonic beings, transforming creatures or all of them. Transport to the city could include teleporting, a giant halk(or some other bird) or an advance gnome glider. There could be a quest to get to the city, and a couple of quests in the city. Other than that I don't know. The idea just popped in my head so I posted it. I'll be glad to add any other good ideas.

Athyron Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 omg lifemage do you just go around flaming everybody's suggestion lol? This idea might be cool but would be hard to program so i dunno The rune merching business is dead. R.I.P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekenshi Posted August 24, 2006 Author Share Posted August 24, 2006 I wouldn't think that it would be hard to program. Just a short cutscene when you chose the option look off side. They already have flying mosters, so just change the graphic, and put talk to, bank, trade, ect. options. Otherwise, just use the same layout they use for water, only have a picture of ground and ocean in it's place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imhomer Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 I think it sounds cool as long as you the player don't get to fly yourself. Maybe a new transport option like a giant hawk or something could take you there like a boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mekenshi Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share Posted August 25, 2006 I was thinking angelic like beings, but dragonic people world be cool. And maybe people like on Fire Emblem: POR with people who could transform in to animals. Use the same principle as werewolves maybe... Lot's of things could be done, and there doesn't necessarily have to be 1 race. Maybe a couple of the air peoples could be at war and it could be a quest. That would be assuming there were more than one city. A way to get there could be a device built by dwarven engineers and gnome sappers. A mechanical glider. Just an idea....

Dalcyte Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 cool do we get dragoon spirts too? i call wind! are u serious? Runescape isn't gonna take a theme from a anime show or cartoon or watever and implement it... :wall: please...think b4 posting. Anyway, they won't implement flying either i bet...its just way to much to consider and to program...Anyway we got teleports and all other stuff so why do we need it? Flying city ain't out of reach...great idea. I'd try to go into specifics about what you're going to do.

No i wasn't serious, and i hate wanna be mods. Read my second post it sad i was only joking. I'm not a idiot i know jagex woulden't do that. Ponies!

mario_sunny Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I really like this idea and how its coming along, although I'm sure they did not have hovercities back then... Oh wait- an idea just popped into my head! A new quest following the gnome series about using gnomic magick to make a city come up from the ground and float! Man that would be awesome, it would give ALOT more room for jagex to put stuff on the map. Love the idea :mrgreen: By popular demand, this signature is back- however I currently do not have a blog up at the moment and if I did I wouldn't update it. Sorry, the sig links to nowhere :( .

bobbe1987 Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 On topic: I like it. It would be like geting to Zanaris, you have to do a special quest to gain access to the place. Once you have access to the city you would get there via means of there local transportation (i.e. a representative from there city will take you). Off topic: I came up with this idea in a previous post about flying. And to imagine i came up with this in a matter of minutes Eventually you will be a mindless Runescape addict like the best of us.
