a few suggestions (in General)

hi i'm just putting forward a few suggestions for discussion.

firstly i was thinking we could increase the amount of arrows we can hold from 14,000 to 20,000 this can either be a bonus that is bought, added when u become a supporter or a reward for reaching a certain pr.

In regards to money i was thinking it might be a nice idea to have a lotto created that is held 2 days a week. Each lotto prize consists of 10mil cb$ and each ticket into cb lotto costs like 20,000 cb gold with a max of 5 tickets allowed per player per draw and to win u need to get all 5 of your numbers drawn.

i was thinking it might be nice to increase max ba to 200 to help those out like myself who can only be on for a few hours a day even if this is only a feature that is bought or earned after reaching a certain target like a pr.

ammo limit, is well enough, and its closer to 15k.


that lotto is insane, it would tinker with economy, at least i think it would. to play something with those stakes would have to include more money. and lotteries like that, generate cash for themselves, at 20k a ticket and the amount of people playing isn't anywhere near enough. there is a CB lottery (run by me) which is weekly and isn't insane, and its non-profit, if people liked it so much, the 50 tickets would be all sold, but they're not.

BA thing, can't be, a lot of people have tried and failed, its easy and simple this way.

oh yeah my other suggestion is how about the ability for a minion to wield 2 weapopns. u can't have a shield but u can have a tattoo and the two weapons have to be one handed weapons

While we're at it, let's add a healing spell, graphics, and a mage staff! Those would be cool!

having 2 weapons could be a possibility, but they would be a new type of weapons... I have some ideas for the fans on how it can be implemented without breaking the game.

Like what Maelstrom said... taken form the Frequently Offered Retarded Suggestions in the Official FAQ:

Q: I think a lottery / casino / other form of gambling would be a great idea!

A: Players are welcome to run any form of contest they like in the Contests forum (within the limits of the CB terms of use, of course), but there will never be gambling as an official part of CB.

Although I realize that "gambling is a tax on people who can't do math," or alternately phrased, "gambling is a tax on stupid people," I'm still morally opposed to it, even in a game.

Q: Since CB already distinguishes between one-handed and two-handed weapons, why not allow equipping two one-handed weapons?

A: Because two good 1HW like an ELS or maybe even two claymores would be massively overpowered. Getting even one extra attack would be way more benefit than using a shield or a 2HW, so a lot of gameplay choice would be lost (because one option is far more powerful than the others).

Q: Why not give Supporters twice as much BA, or some other really huge advantage?

A: Although CB gives Supporters a large array of perks, we have made a deliberate decision to not change the game fundamentals such that in order to be competitive, you NEED to be a Supporter. Not that features like favorites list and sort-by-PR don't help, but these are about making CB more convenient, not about changing the basic mechanics of the game.

The arrow one doesn't really make sense cause if you do it right you CAN have more than 15k ammo. You just can't buy any more ammo, for instance you pop into the Store and try to buy Exp Shots, But your Ammo is full.

Not to flame, but you might want to read the Help! before you try to offer suggestions that have been offered many times. ^_^

I think it'd be interesting to have some elemental damage in the game. Seems like there's already a bit of it in there with the RoBF negating fire damage to an extent, but it might be fun to expand that further.

I agree with Forge, it would be really cool to have elemental damage and special items that block only one particular element. That way CoC could make a comeback, and we might be able to get a new spell.

I don't care what anyone thinks but i could use an amulet or something to up my hp... i can't find much that does.

Shade, I'd like to hear those! ;) As BL is sort of like Two weapons, and CB has no 'On Hit' properties, that would favour two small hits over one big one.

Mael, there is no reason not to have a Mage Staff, bar Jon doesn't like them. ;)
