Don't see one, so I'll make one. Post your wishes for gameplay additions, all are welcome. And after awhile it would be good if someone could transfer this thread to the sony PS forum.
Here's some of mine:
1. Outfit houses. A place where you and your outfit and invited guests can kick back. Can gain extra height stories/goodies/award banners to display outside through accomplishments (which should include more varied things then just outfit points) How cool would it be to have your own lounge/club house to goof off in, but not only that, that looks pretty damn uber from the outside and is the envy of other players.
2. Faction battle plans. Allows all commanders to throw down their outfit icons and show their plans to all other commanders, i.e. you are all putting your plans on the same map. Would help coordination a lot. A nice additional specifier would be the ability to put a number on your icon of how many forces you are sending to a place.
3. Progressive gain/ not base hopping. The single largest inherent mechanics flaw through beta and still is. The whole point of any war game is gaining ground through victories and ultimately conquering. The bottom rung of players may not care, but for the top rung this is why they play a game, and the top rung are the players who will stay. Here's one idea: once a cont is locked it opens up a new continent to fight on. Make it so there's something like 30 conts to fight on but once all conts are open a side that can lock them all or possibly slightly less then all, wins the game. The new conts can be made with the same assets for all I care, but the point is the reality of being able to win. A game that you can win is always replayable, from soccer to chess to BF1942. One that you can't hits it's ceiling after you've tried everything, so I hope to see even more ideas on adding a win to PS and hope the devs fix the prob.
