AGILITY UPDATE WOOO! I feel it needs some more explaining though if it isn't a shortcut.. i didn't get the idea it'd be a course which i'd be happy with anyway! More xp than Dorgesh Kaan would cause complaints but that doesn't mean it can't be the same! I'd like a new course :P Anyway im looking forward to see how this'll work..

I don't see why we can't have all the ideas put into the game, as they were all good, but for me there's two which stood out:

Roof Leaping: Agility reborn!

- This could be very interesting and could compensate for the lack of advanced courses with the ability to make new shortcuts (both roof jumping and jumping over other obsticles such as logs, rocks etc. which you previously couldn't) and courses, as well as the ability to bring the agile set back into the game. The agile top and legs where both good looking and useful. They also show some sort of a skill achievement, as you need 85/90 agility to obtain and wear them.


Soul Snathcer

- There should be some sort of reward. What kind? I have no idea. Could be exp, armour, herbs&ingredients or anything else useful. But the concept itself is good. The question is whether or not people will spend time doing something they will get nothing for completing.

there can be multiple courses that give different levels of exps. there is no reason it cant give more than the current courses if its higher levels. frankly my dear, I couldn't give a dam. never had a river to build one on.

How about no player made content, I haven't even gotten my fill of gwd yet why would we need more updates. This game is old school we don't need random children ideas added just to please the 3k ppl who have voted in this poll.

why not add all 3 updates that currently have ~30% support?

Too much work most likely- plus too much content at a time is pretty pointless, it would be better to roll them out over-time. I doubt the other suggestions will be pushed aside because they're so close in the poll.

Wonder what the xp and level requirements will be.

They're all great suggestions, can't wait to give the ones that pass a try. :) |

Lighten up- it's great interaction between community and developer. If you don't like the new content then don't use it, it will have no detrimental effect on your fill of God Wars. |

I like the idea, but i don't really understand the benefit unless it's a new agility course with semi decent experience rates.

There should be some lootable chests on top of the roofs with maybe some random weight reducing items and perhaps very rare "potent" super energy pots that restore energy continuously for 30 seconds.

There should be a 75-85+ agility requirement for the weight reducing items, for sure.

I hope they do follow through and give at least serious consideration to the other two that are sitting at around 30%, as all three seem popular.

I also don't see why two things shouldn't be rolled out simultaneously. For the handful of people that actually do agility they'll get their fill and for those that prefer bossing/minigames they'll have something to do too.

Agility update will be dead content either way, if it's low level stuff it'll not encourage people who don't like agility to train it, and when they do they'll quickly progress to higher levels/better courses, and if it's best exp people will rage even though virtually nobody can do it. I think at rank 1000 for agility the level is only 71 or 72 so it's not like people really train it that much, if it's high level content it'll be available to just a handful of people.

If we commit to 3 big projects, we'll be booked up for months, during which time we wouldn't be able to respond to much else. I'd rather we committed to 1 project, then afterwards look around and see what the next priority should be, based on how you all feel at that time.

Besides, once one of these is in the system, I want to get on with a Slayer-themed poll.

The other ideas - including the other 4 Mat's put on this survey and the 70-odd other ideas that didn't make it - can stick around for future use, especially if you all keep showing interest in them.
