FSC, LD, Prestige missions all of that have become so repetitive and boring even for casual players. How about we add some new content to make SK a better game ?

♦ Castle Siege:
Each Sunday, for 1 Hour a pvp based event take on where guilds compete to take over a castle.
There is a total of 7 castles in the clockwork. The goal is to defend the king statue located in the throne room, the statue have its own HP, If the statue is destroyed the defender get teleported away from the castle to their guild hall. Then the attacker become the defender.
The guild who keep the castle until the time is up get to keep the castle until the next sunday castle siege where castle siege start again. The castle have many advantageous reward for the guilds, suggestions about the reward are to discuss.
This sol idea will engage every guilds into an unforgettable massive multiplayer event that will makes them eager to play the next. and will keep everyone busy getting ready gearing up for the next one.

♦ More weapons ?

5* version of Static Edge, Hot Edge, Beast Basher, Cold Snap, Firecracker and the rest.

♦ More options to reduce game quality even further for slow computers such as laptops. We badly need that.

Other suggestions to come

More content? You trolling or just impatient and need a "content takes time, we've already had LOADS this year" lecture and a prompt slap to the chops?

So just because there are thousands doesn't mean that every lolguild must get one... There are lots of one-man, fun and social guilds... However there are only a few active pvp guilds. If we give each one a castle, wouldn't that ruin the whole concept behind castle siege ? Only the best and most successful ones will be triumphant.
Do you even understand that the same castles get besieged every week ? Also that was just the skeleton of the idea, numbers and details are to discuss. If you got something intelligent to add, then share it instead of giving out insignificant hateful arguments.

@Darkbrady : Speaking of trolling. Your avatar is more trollish than your post itself. There was indeed some content this year, but if you're really an active player, and you log-in everyday or so, You'll start to notice that a lots of veterans are already leaving this game. The only thing that rise the online players counter now a day is the newbies that come try the game. If you ask each of them their answer will mostly be "lack of content". Sure content need time that's absolutely true but ideas need to be heard.

"Hey guys, guilds should be like, castle things, so they can be all castle-y and stuff. There seven castles but they have to be in the Clockworks where us knights are basically invaders but somehow have giant buildings. So anyway, these castle things we have to like, fight each other for, then whoever wins get some guild stuff.

Then, we need, like, more weapons and stuff, so take some stuff we already have but make it better. Then I want lower graphics options because laptops and playing this game on them is like, totally not cool because lag and no one ever gets lag unless they have a laptop."

That was how I read the original post.

"Well, guilds like those Lockdown junkies deserve a happy castle with stuff because nothing is wrong with it and you are stupid and should go away.

Anyone who disagrees with me is a troll and people are leaving this game even though that happens with all games but we also get new players and everyone thinks this game needs more content because I asked them and no one else ever has any ideas on new content because I said so."

And that was how I read your response.

Times like this need some Queen.

My avatar is trolly? Now I'm convinced you're just wasting peoples time by bringing up pointless and unjistified rants. Go play a game that hasn't had any content updates in 9 months and you'll start to appreciate SK more. S'the way it goes in MMOs and if people like you quit because of it, then

/wave :)

New content is the guild hall

No, most weapons usually start at 2* to 5* in Tier 2 to Tier 3. Having the idea from 1* to 5* is a bad idea. It'd be completely useless, AS we have other bombs that have the smallest range possible in 2*. If there is a 1* static capacitor, it'd be as small as a knight

Making weapons that start at

Making weapons that start at one star and end at five is a bad idea more because it would be unfathomably easy to ragecraft those items for UVs. You could craft ten from a single mist tank.

Also, hot edge and static edge at five star are just voltedge and combuster, really. They're three-swing elemental-normal swords with charge attacks that create a line of explosions that deal fire or shock.

*yawn* You guys are so dense :s. If something end at 5* it automatically means it has to follow the chain order 1*>2*>3*>4*>5*. I never said to jump to 5* directly, i just wrote briefly.
@Artistbma : You haven't played much mmo beside minecraft and teamfortress haven't you ?
@Luguiru : You're just a sad, sad person. Go back to your corner and keep collecting cute accessories for your char, and leave this to us the "Lockdown junkies". And what's up with the hate on slow computers D: ?
@Darkbrady : What rant ?
@Chaosengineer : They're like the brandish family in term of element. But static edge and hot edge have a better look and unlike the voledge and combuster they inflict status on the second hit. Also the point is to add more weapon diversity. Speaking of crafting, naturally the price of crafting them will have to be adjusted to 50ce.

There may be some flaws in these ideas, and it could use some work. But why not discuss here and improve it together instead of posting negative comments ?

Rage crafting UVs with 1* items.

"You haven't played much mmo beside minecraft and teamfortress haven't you "

TF2 was never a MMO. Genius faec.

"You're just a sad, sad person. Go back to your corner and keep collecting cute accessories for your char, and leave this to us the "Lockdown junkies"."

Oh really.

Oh really.

Well, excuse me, princess.

So your reason for having them is because we already have something incredibly similar but you want it to be there anyway and change them to be the same thing that we already have.

Are you trying to get us to create new ways to describe stupidity?

"why not discuss here and improve it together instead of posting negative comments"

You started this nonsense. You blame us for the problems and expect us to fix them for you. What are we, your babysitters? Baby need nappy time? I know I do. I like naps. Sometimes I jump in a ditch outside and nap in the dirt. A dirt nap. It beats discussing this thread with you.

@Benightz there used to be a

@Benightz there used to be a 1* to 5*, it even was a status bomb. it was the stun bomb and had the other 3 branches on it(there used to be only 3 branches, stun not being one of them). it had only 2 looks, the small one and then the current 4* look. the reason we do not have 1-5 anymore is because, as lug said, people could make them at practically nothing.

god i miss old status bombs. lasted longer with a bigger range, you could status a bot in the shooting gallery in ATH.

Let's calm down.

We can discuss this like the civilized people we are. No need to resort to sleeping in ditches, insulting people's avatars and throwing poor helpless mewkats out of windows. Now I'm going to put on some tea. If anyone would like some, you are welcome to it.

Ahhh... Much better.

Now regarding the suggestion at hand, I noticed a few things knights would not be happy about.

First off, there is this "Sunday for one hour" thing. Why?

Then there is the fact that this many people at each others throats all the time would cause lag up the walls.

All I see in this is another chance for Scolvers to poke your eyes out with their toothpicks and blast your limbs off with a Polaris.

Now, Moonlight, we just want you to know that this is not a great idea, but all you have given in response are invalid arguments and silly insults. Please, remember, just because you like an idea, does not mean the rest of the world does too.

Rage crafting UVs with 1* items.

How about you Learn2read ?
A ce cost adjustment was suggested...
1* 50ce > 2* 50ce > 3* 200 ce > 4* 400 ce etc ...
And calm down this is just a suggestion, there is no guarantee it'll get implemented. Hens there may be not even be the slimiest chance for any suggestion here on SK Forum to get implemented. The point is to discuss ideas

Oh really.

Well, excuse me, princess.

old meme

It's MMOFPS To be exact.
faec = ???

So your reason for having them is because we already have something incredibly similar but you want it to be there anyway and change them to be the same thing that we already have.

Are you trying to get us to create new ways to describe stupidity?

Wow Captain ! I spot a troll on the land, His Grammar is really bad..Also he can't seem to see that this is a parody, Fail.

We already have something incredibly similar ? Think again.

Static/Hot Edge:
• Good chance of causing Minor Shock/Fire ( Normal & Charge Attack ) Similar to Fang of Vog.
• Level 5+: Charge Time Reduction: Low
• Level 10: Charge Time Reduction: Medium

Voltedge:
• Good chance of causing Minor Shock ( Charge Attack )
• Level 5+: Charge Time Reduction: Low
• Level 10: Charge Time Reduction: Medium

Also holding a blade with lightning thunder on it is way better than just holding a massive colored sword. And i'm sure it'll get even better at 5*

Stupidity ? Think again. Because it looks like someone said something and backfired :O
If i were you, i would go and make a new forum account right now.

What are we, your babysitters.

Oh I'm sorry but I see Forums written above.

Baby need nappy time? I know I do. I like naps. Sometimes I jump in a ditch outside and nap in the dirt. A dirt nap. It beats discussing this thread with you.

It's cool baby can abstain. Good timing cuz your diaper really started to stink the air here :O

Please, remember, just because you like an idea, does not mean the rest of the world does too.Q

I could say the same thing to you... Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean the rest doesn't too. If you don't like it, don't play it. The game doesn't force you to play pvp :) And I'm sorry if from your side it looked like i insulted anyone here, all i did was replying to the hateful comments.

It's sad how only small portion of the community read and participate in the forum, I read other suggestions threads and all i see is always the same persons posting hating and bashful comments or a painful walls of text with no trace of cleverness. Rarely someone show some motivation.

Requesting thread lock. Thanks.

Actually, TF2 is just an

Actually, TF2 is just an online shooter. Gears of War isn't an MMOFPS but you can still jump in countless random matches with anyone on da internetz.

Upping 1* costs to 50ce would absolutely destroy noobs, all because you want there to be a 1~5* version of a weapon that we already have a 5* version of. Any idea how incredibly selfish and short-sighted that is?
You're just proposing that Glacius be able to freeze on all hits like Static Edge/FoV? The Brandishes are OP as it is w/o giving them even more powers just because you want a new skin for them. How about you just request a skinned Brandish to appear like the 1* swords? They've done it with Scissor Blades, can't see why they can't do it again.
But making a whole new weapon line to make Brandishes completely redundant, while making crafting impossible for new players is beyond ....wow, I don't even have an appropriate word...

Also "just because we don't like it doesnae mean the rest don't too" doesn't apply when we're giving logical reasons why they shouldn't be implemented. It's not just a "I don't like that.", it's a "that's stupid, stop that." or "Christ, we're getting a huge update THIS WEEK and you're complaining that we need more updates." kind of comment.

Pay attention o.o

"How about you Learn2read ?"

I wish I never did since this thread came to be.

"A ce cost adjustment was suggested"

No.

"And calm down this is just a suggestion, there is no guarantee it'll get implemented."

Sometimes ideas are still implemented. Your plan is to have nonsense and hope everyone else likes it or fixes it for you.

"It's MMOFPS To be exact.

So there are servers where thousands, even millions, of players can all play simultaneously? On the same server?

"We already have something incredibly similar ? Think again."

I can do that, too.

Graviton:

Level 5+: Charge Time Reduction: Low
Level 10: Charge Time Reduction: Medium

Acheron:

Level 5+: Charge Time Reduction: Low
Level 10: Charge Time Reduction: Medium

Leviathan:

Level 5+: Charge Time Reduction: Low
Level 10: Charge Time Reduction: Medium

Same thing. Of course.

"If i were you, i would go and make a new forum account right now."

Was there a clever insult before this line or has your own incompetence begun to add to your inability to think?

"I could say the same thing to you... Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean the rest doesn't too.

Okay.

That means all the fodder pet and healing weapon threads are perfectly fine and everyone should either love them or plug their ears and scream until it goes away.

"Requesting thread lock."

Do it yourself.
