Nightstalking.
 
Last night a player named COSŪ submitted an idea through feedback and I thought I would share it.

The basic premise is that we have a day-night system and this has been already discussed at length. However, the guy elaborated a little further on it. During the night here are no guards protecting regions or safe-zones. Because of this, everywhere is essentially a pk-zone and a free for all. Not only would there be PKers ravaging the streets, but there would be an increase of baddies roaming the world. There would be certain areas that would only be accessible during the night such as areas that are usually guarded opening up for exploration and questing. Etc etc etc.

Obviously he's just elapsed a little on having a day-night system, but I really love the idea of the world map being entirely PK during night. It makes sense, it gives people a specific timeframe in which PKing is everywhere, and I think as a whole the idea is very immersive. We lost the battle for making the world map permanently a pk-zone and this seems like the best solution that has been suggested so far.

Your thoughts?

That actually sounds like a hell of a fun idea. How would the day/night system be implemented, though? Would there just be one universal nighttime for every time zone?

6 hours in a 'Graal day' probably.

Well you are development staff and you already know players wanted day/night system..and I'm sure lot will love this idea, so make this happen :3

That seems legit. Just don't do it as the weather system on iEra. Raining 5 mins, sun 5 mins, and so on.

Ya and I'm also the person who made Graal City a pk zone and we all seen how that turned out.

Its good to try stuff out, else you'll never know how it would turn out.
The only people who didn't like graal city pk was the afkers and virtual dating players... Much more would rather see gameplay than sit around doing nothing on a game.

Sounds like a good idea. Maybe 20 minutes of day, 20 minutes of night per cycle?

Something like this would be nice.

Rufus 07-29-2012 06:26 PM

That's a good example. It would probably be one hour morning, two hours day, one hour evening, one hour night, one hour late night. The last two would be pk. You'd end up with four days per real day, 4 hours of day and 2 hours of night.

NCJohn 07-29-2012 06:33 PM

Amazing idea, love it

Pimpsy G. 07-29-2012 06:47 PM

Hmm, I would probably make night time a little shorter. One hour seems like around the max for night in my opinion, as two hours of pk free for all might cause the same effect as permanent free for all. Two hours is a long time for a game and it will end up being 8 hours per real day of being free for all Pk.

Emera 07-29-2012 06:51 PM

4 days for every real day sounds great. Love the idea.
