What's missing in SRO? - YOUR opinion counts!

well i agree a 3rd race would totally revive sro of course everybody remember euro release day it was like "OMG OMG OMG" and its going to be also great to have a new race
but as a i heard the old company that made sro sold it to another company thats why many stuff wasn't done like the 3rd race for example..however there was still some stuff about the 3rd race but sadly..not enough to make it

1. Change the arena system similar to WoW. Example. Have 2v2. 3v3. and 5v5. And have players get rewarded a currency (conquest points in wow) and have a weekly cap of how much points you can get. and have special gear that you buy with that currency.
2. Make the gear diverse. Like for an example you could change the base stats of the 1-9d items to scale up to the lets say its a 12d server so have the items have the same stats but different gear. It would be cool to see people wearing different combinations of the degrees of gear.
3. Change the pk system? Some people might not like this but I know some games that if you die, you lose items in your inventory or on you so kinda like a wilderness pk system like in runescape.
thats all i can think of right now if i think of more stuff ill be sure to post more

I have never heard of that rock paper theory

Seems like they improved it then, back when I played (3 Years ago) I just received always the same Answer.

I doubt they would listen anyway to Players when it comes to Suggestions.

All right :




Alchemy - This shit kills the game, I swear. However it plays a big role, so I think putting a LIMIT to the " + " of gear would make things better : Something like limit at +9/+10.

Rates - The old EliteSro were the best. Maybe even decrease a little to make char levels worth something. Maybe 20x with party at 25x.

Skills - Some skills need to be fixed to make things balanced - Dare Devil's damage for example, etc. I'm sure as an experienced player you know what I'm talking about.

Char IP Limit - cause goldbotting shouldn't be an option.

PAY2WIN- BIG NO. The whole idea should be donating to get things FASTER. BUT NEVER BEING STRONGER. This means for example premium should only give more experience, no increased stats. No buying gear with silks. Maybe increased alchemy luck than normally you get from premium could do the trick.

Make PVP attracting - this is the whole idea of people getting to max level - to pvp. Alas, the whole idea behind SRO is job wars. So make some sort of special stuff you can get from pvping - gear, items, moneyz, titles etc.
QUOTED FROM AN USER BELOW :
. Change the arena system similar to WoW. Example. Have 2v2. 3v3. and 5v5. And have players get rewarded a currency (conquest points in wow) and have a weekly cap of how much points you can get. and have special gear that you buy with that currency.

Events and active Gm's - Pretty self explanatory - You don't need shitloads of them, just once or twice a day a fun event.

No custom shit... maybe 1 or 2 custom uniques that appear in certain places could work. But too much customization kills the basics of the game.

No lags and stable server obviously.

well simply
Old Job System
Old Balanced Pvp
Old Pets (Gray Wolf && white wolf) [White wolf should be stronger]
some graphics update
kill the noobs system (you know when you get some goods and npc thiefs attacks every one around you this was totally fun for me and makes the noobs motivated)
low rates 1x is okay but Advanced Bot should be allowed (player bot all day and when he is on doing pvp & job etc)

depending on the mail
they dont have an exact auto reply

they do almost the same

I once asked an specific thing("Why the lvl pets had a mount icon") and the tech support leader told me that that feature was to be implemented on the future with a "new pet system"
So the answer for the emails can really depend on the matter(generic questions and specific questions)

Back on ecsro when you reached 1k damage on a mangyang and had to calculate 63555 + your damage because it reset :o

I have some observations, specially from playing other games more recent, I think that the interface with the player should be more friendly.
- Icons are incredibly small;
- You take ages moving items around, to storage and such;
- The games treats you like a retard, to make some action you have to accept lots of questions. E.g. to trade you have to accept and then confirm. Although, this could be easily simplier if you just hit "enter" and it would select an answer, instead of only working to chat;
- Travel time is huge, e.g. if you are a level 80 going to hunt in the niya sniper you take around 5~10 minutes to get there, unless you pay for scrolls;
- The potions and arrow limits are rather small;
- Makes no sense that alchemy is so hard and not achievable by most players, is also tricky and takes some effort to manage it;
- Level restriction to speak would be great and would avoid towns full of spammers;
- The silkroad is full of bugs and no one cares, I play it for over 6 years and there was never an update to improve graphic bugs, you can get stuck pretty much everywhere.

Just some of my personal opinions on the subject. Open to discussion of course :P
