1. Fully instanced and customizable player housing.
I know this one has been mentioned to death and there are many people who don’t really care for it, but there are also lots of people who do. This would add so many opportunities to the game that I’ll only list a few.
a. A market in the gem store for furniture items that cannot be obtained by
normal means (think item storage).
b. The ability to display trophies earned through hunting, dungeons, achievements,
mini games.
c. A new crafting profession based on player housing. Also opens new markets on
BLTC.
d. Great for those people who like to roleplay.
2. Guild Halls.
Another one that has been mentioned a million times. I know this is planned along
with housing, but the sooner the better.
3. Fishing.
Can tie into so so many things.
a. Guild hall and Housing decor.
b. Cooking.
c. looting odd things that can be broken down into crafting mats.
d. Mini game fishing contests. Can even be used in dynamic events where
wants you to fish x amount of certain fish for them.
4. Weekly city festivals.
This idea can tie into loads of things as well. Each week rotate to a different city.
A new currency for activities completed during the festival can buy you new
things.
a. Once again, housing/guild hall decor.
b. Unique city themed weapon and armor skins different than the current
cultural stuff.
c. New town cloths.
d. mini pets (as a very rare/expensive item)
5. Capture the flag.
Keg brawl is like this, but I think a return to some of the basic pvp modes like
capture the flag in the pvp rotation would add a little variety into the mix.
6. A new set of wvw maps.
After playing wvw for awhile, the current maps can get old. Why not add a new set
of maps to a map rotation? With it new jumping puzzles, vistas, poi’s etc.
7. A rework of the Necromancer pet system to be more like the Rangers.
I’m sure some people love the way the necro pets are as is, but there are a lot of us
who are not thrilled with them. My idea is to make it more like the rangers. It
would add a whole lot of variety to the necro pet appearances. You would still
have your necro pets as normal, but have the ability to aquire different “skins” for
them. You can basically choose how you want your normal slot skill pets look from
a list not unlike the rangers. I’d rather have a skeleton knight look than the flesh
golem. Others still may want their flesh golem to look like a risen chicken.
8. Option to turn off particle effects.
9. A new type of dungeon that scales from solo player to full group in difficulty.
Rewards also scale.
10. Very rare mobs in the world that have a chance to drop cool weapon and armor
skins. It would add just one more reason for higher level folks to revisit lower level
areas.
11. Please get all of the mini games going. I’d love to do target shooting.
12. Quality in game voice chat system. There are too many guilds around using tons
of different voice programs. I think one centralized system would be nice to have.
Would benefit pug groups greatly.
I know some of this stuff, if not all of it, has been listed before, but I feel that these things would bring a lot to the game in the way of stuff to do.
