What is your suggestion?: Poll major changes to the game

Is this in OSRS?: Yes

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: No

How would this benefit Alora?: This would give the entire community a voice in regards to changes and updates, The quiver being a new requirement for the comp cape has split the community, some are for the change while others are (understandably) upset over it. Changes like this should 100% be polled to allow the entire community to give their oppinion on and major changes.

Sort of agree. I personally agree the community knows best.

I agree if it's a major change that isn't a new update/content that already passed in OSRS. If it's already added into OSRS with overwhelmingly positive feedback in their community, I don't see a need to poll it here.

I’m neutral on this one.

Majority of updates relate to new additions in OSRS, which would’ve gone through polls on the main game. Then it goes over to the dev team on Alora and for them to decide what’s worthy to invest time into in order to enchance the experience on Alora.

The comp cape itself is a very tricky topic, because of its unique ability and benefits and sought after by everyone. It’s hard to find a balance between having the status symbol it is vs achievability.
In my experience, outside of inferno, the most difficult part was finding a team to do the ToB KC.

I agree with this, but with some caveats.

 

Opposed to just polling big changes as "should 'x' thing be added to the game?" or "should 'X' thing be changed" I believe it should be done with differing ways that it could be implemented. "Should 'x' thing be added like this? Or this? Etc" Or allow conversation about said content, get some opinions from people and pick the ones that are most popular, then poll/repoll the few differing ideas of said content.

 

Alternatively, with some content you'll never make everyone happy. Instead implementing content that can apply or cater to the largest majority of players, and have conditionals, or variations of said content/items that then caters to even more. This part is more so referring to new comp change, and the additional changes that I've seen suggested these last few days.

 

As we have differing cosmetics for the comp cape, I more or less mean it like that. Add additional cosmetic tansmogs to the cape for even higher tier content. Such as blorva, and other hard content. Leaving the comp cape the way it was with the assembler as a part of it, but then requiring a quiver to be used on comp cape to then upgrade it to it's newest bis, as well as giving the new cosmetic for it (or for a KC milestone). This allows comp to apply to more players. I don't believe comp should be so out of reach for so many people on the server. It's a great goal to go for. But then adding additional cosmetics, or even the quiver being required to be ADDED to the comp cape then gives even more goals to work towards. 

 

Also if you wanted like a "true completionist" cape, could add a new variant with all the recently added suggestions, and giving it literally something like +1 prayer, +5 in attack stats. Nothing absolutely game breaking, but at the very least would be a visual sign of your gamer superiority, as well as still being technically bis.

No support. Even though I am a bit frustrated over new requirement for completionist requirement, we like the element of surprise in the game :) Sometimes something becomes easier, sometimes somethin becomes harder and that's how it should be. Got to enjoy the time that 99% of the server is walking without the monkey, get on the grind!

i do agree that big changes like this should be polled, some stuff is like osrs and some other stuff isnt.

would be nice to see what the peoples think about the new incoming updates, right now coll prob gave a big slap in the face to 95% of the hc that are playing.

comp cape is a great reward and i do agree it deserve to be earned, but if you make alot of plp quit just for this kind of updates, all their works went to dust for no reasons. losing players is not the point of updates, maybe make it at least safe deaths?

 

 

i do support to make a poll on uncomming updates/make them maybe a bit easier than osrs, because at the end of the day, we are here to enjoy our gaming time and just chill. if its gonna be 100% like osrs, we should just all go play there instead, we need a balance between osrs and the way we like to play on alora :)

 

 

@Omicron, give us a way to let our voices been heard and how the community want the server to be.
