How Does The Wynn Team Plan To Handle The Inevitable Overload Of Quests/content?

I guess I am giving shits to the wrong person. Like, what am I supposed to do then, start a "riot"?
PMing him will do nothing. He can't just hold back community like that. At least a reason would be nice.

 

The reason he gave me is just that it was "too ghetto for his liking". What he means by that is that it's something we can fix via better means, such as rebalancing instead, or something like that. He didn't go into detail, but that's where we are.

 

I agree that nerfs are necessary right now, but I assume that there will be new items sometime in the future.

When those gets implemented instead of doing the very logical: To aim for the balanced spot resulting in 20% being balanced, 40% being too weak and 40% overpowered. Leading to people getting attached to their overpowdered items and then when the inevitable nerf comes get frustrated and have to change their build. Instead of this I think that aiming to make a pretty weak item that you can play test with the whole community and not risk to make it overpowered and need to nerf. Then you can see how the community uses it and change it accordingly.

I actually think that I will make a whole thread about this tomorrow where I can get it more structured.

 

Technically thats what happened with the hive armour... it got buffed accordingly and then after a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time ppl started thinkikg differently and got into the elemental tank meta and found ways to abuse it. What i am trying to say is that there are always going to have to be nerfs/fixes because once things get buffed after a long time a members thought my twist and change into a different way of thinking and a new way of abusing something. There is absolutely no way we can avoid nerfs as of rn. (I am not against a few buffs such as saggitarius btw :p but that being said the game is already kinda easy af (as long as you dont go into pvp so as long as its just dmg and elemental def nerfs that really shouldnt be too terrible .-. )

 

Bumpy bump

 

Bumpa-la-bumpa

 

I totally agree, I have 2 Level 100s and it took me so fking long to get them that high, like 1 year (no joke) and then I went to ragni just to help my cousin with finishing quests (he is such a noob)[Like last month] and now he is lvl98. I love the quests, I personally enjoy them, but now anyone can get 100/101 in a few weeks
there is no effort tbh.

 

This thread is 4 months old already? Damn.

 

What will happen when the level cap is increased?
Obvsly there are lvl 101s that will be .... annoyed... if the exp needed to get to lvl 101 is reduced ( they put in hours of effort to get there) but others may not try and get past the level cap as they see lvl 101 as too much of a milestone and not worth it if it is not reduced.

 

Easy let everyone keep the xp they already have and just change the amount of xp needed for each level. If you are lvl 101 you will instantly be at a higher level. I also think that another 101 type level is necessary.

 

I was thinking bout that but that would most likely be a pain to code and there would be sum bug were you ended up with someone at the level cap automatically because they joined on double exp weekend when an xp bomb was dropped or sum shit.

 

40 to 50 quests would take ages to make, especially with their concept of " a long quest with as many pointless stages as possible with varied mechanics is good". This is probably why corkus has like 4 or 5 quests.

 

gavel added 50 quests or so as well ^^ so it isnt unthinkable that they would add that many more with another province.

 

I think that Dungeons, grinding, and quests should all give XP (and items?) at the same rate, and there should always be all three available. Perhaps reduce quest and dungeon XP overall but put a whole lot more in? The problem with that is the current content rate, but hopefully the refactor will fix that.

 

IMO, just take down csst, have a better main storyline and make the other quests sidequests ( tho the quests now arent bad), patch the "no quests" gap between lvll 90 and 95, make grinding more rewarding in xp, and make it such that more xp is needed per lvl

 

Better? There currently isnt really one at all. Other than ofc the lore that we puzzled together/found. Currently all there is are loose bits of the main storyline. (I would imagine stuff like taproot etc questline to be a part of the future main story line and all the other quests are literally just optional side quests to add more depth or flavour(?) to the different towns and areas.)

 

I think this is going to be the last time I bump this thread. While I still stand by what I've initially stated in the thread, I think a good chunk of the Wynn community has (hopefully) been conveying the main message of this thread for a while now. There will eventually be a "follow-up" thread of sorts for this one, it won't be a direct "sequel" to this thread, but it will discuss a similar topic to this one, in a sense. If you want to still keep this thread alive, knock yourselves out, but I think this thread has done it's job. Have a nice day.
