Ok, so I have been working on the content IN the board, rather than the fluff around it. I am almost done getting mini profiles working as I'd like, as well as the visual touches therein. That's been more work than I care to mention.
I have completed a slog of visual tweaks to the board itself, as well. The side bars won't be done overnight, much of the old code is now useless and I will either have to do away with it or come up with a fix. I may consider altering the look o the sidebars though, I am unsure. We could shift to one sidebar that contained just about everything we could want.
As for the system, I have the pics for the races up. I need to write these up and whilst I have them all thriving in my head, it will take some free time for me to get it down.
What's next?
Well, other than kicking off the award system on site (think xbox achievements that will shows in your profile and so on), I have had some plans that I need to set in motion.
The talent system will be converted to a twenty point system. Talent points will be purchased with acclaim, just like gold. Much easier to track
To balance out that conversion, admin will be actually removing HALF of all acclaim earned for their admin role. We'll also be taking a pay cut. This system will not only allow far more diversity, it will add a great deal of length to the talent system.
The last thing that I am really quite excited about, is ADDING TALENTS. They won't be just added to the list but rather, each faction will have three you can put points in, so long as you are a member. I have to formulate this list as yet but for example, the Vanguard might have a new 'super sensory' talent that makes their senses extra keen.
I think that will add further diversity to the game and finally, factions will have more weight with less gimmicks.
If you have any feedback, questions or even suggestions, please let me know!
