    Duuuuuude...I'm sitting on roughly 20 to 25 T4s and 10ish T3s purchased and a whopping ONE orange. If oranges aren't rare then my games buuuusted!

    Not a fan of any of the ideas. I'll go ahead and give a VERY-brief reason for each:

    1. Auction House: I don't really think they're necessary. There's not enough going on in the game to really merit their creation, particularly with the fixes this game needs.
    2. Legendaries: I guess I agree here. It's silly they're not legitimately stronger than their non-legendary counterparts. I also agree that they are WAY too common. You get, like, 2 SOULBOUND (meaning you can't sell/trade them) Legendary items in an entire WoW expansion (which means about 18-24 months).
    3. House: No. Like Blizzard's said, player housing risks killing the social aspects by having people hang out more in those private areas than in the actual world.
    4. Attack Vehicles: Maybe for a Twisted Metal (demolition derby with weapons) or Full Auto (race with weapons) mode, but not in the world. We have too many idiots using vehicles to kill the Skitterlings in Arkfalls where we need those to bite the crystals as it is, and this game's too easy to kill enemies without those things added.
    5. Arkfalls Tagging: I'm guilty of doing it, not going to lie. I'll go tag all of them, then just work on one. Sometimes, I'll go and do something else entirely. I do agree that they shouldn't allow it, maybe put a damage/timer minimum for Arkfall presence to get credit?
    6. Melee Weapons: Not against them, not necessarily for them. If they ARE to happen, I would rather have the game expand character classes. Have like a typical MMORPG, and make melee DPS characters, rather than having all players fill the same role and play style. I wouldn't mind having melee weapons, but I'd PREFER them make melee classes instead.
    7. Flying: No. NO. NOOOOOO! Again, pointing to Blizzard, they've mentioned how flying is one of their regrets because it severely harms the social aspect of the game. People never really are out discovering things because it's so easy to fly. There's no in-world interaction because all you will have is Arkfalls with planes flying in. You won't have like we typically have where I drive by, see someone doing an encounter, and I stop to help, just because. Those things will be severely hampered. Also, this world's not big WHATSOEVER. You can get in a car and go end-to-end in probably 10 minutes or less. It's probably smaller than some World of Warcraft ZONES, let alone the fact that the game has 5 CONTINENTS. Worst idea I've seen about the game entirely, without question.
    8. Professions: Not a bad idea for future addition, I suppose. It'll go into the "after the major bugs are fixed" pile in my mind.
    9. Pets: No. The game's got ENOGUH issues rendering people in Arkfalls because of overpopulation as it is. Add in pet models, and we're screwed.

    I'll give the post a 3/10. A couple of OK ideas, some not-so-great ones, and two horrid ones (housing and flying).

    In WoW, you get AT MOST 2 class-specific Legendaries over the 2 years an expansion typically lasts. You have to complete several quests to even get the thing, and it can take a couple of months before you can even use it. Relative to what a Legendary SHOULD be? These are cake to get. I've gotten 3 myself. Also lockboxes are cake to get, seeing as Scrip and Ark Salvage are trivial to acquire. I have enough Scrip for 113 T3 lockboxes and enough Ark Salvage to get 11 of them, and that's without actually TRYING to get the currencies for them.

    When everyone has a Legendary, they're not Legendary. When everyone has MULTIPLE Legendaries, they're not even rare. Remember that.

    Rare and legendary...Out of 35 lock boxes I get 1. That's pretty rare for MY experience in the game. Regardless of what everyone else is experincing. Hence my comment about my game being busted if everyone else is finding them with ease. As for having the resources to buy key codes for lock boxes,I myself don't buy key codes. I use the resources for mod slots and as I'm sure you're aware,unlocking all 4 on a weapon can cost a lot of salvage.. As for the orange weapons being legendary,they're way to similar to the lower rarities in my opinion.

    Now I'm not a mmo veteran as Defiance is my first but ive been gaming long enough to know what I can consider a rare item in my playthrough. I've been playing the game religiously in the month its been out and coming across 1 orange in all those hours is rare to me.

    That's all I need to remember.

    Auctions houses are best left to games like WoW.. they really do not belong in game like this especially since it can be played on consoles. Otherwise people would start to try and sell the guns in the game for real money and that would be a bad direction for the game to go in.

    Dont need a house, maybe a personal lock box that is located around the world and stores you extra loot. Maybe a box at each fast travel location, that is all that would be needed.

    No flying since that would defeat the whole purpose of the cars or runners in the game. Everyone would just fly around and then want weapons on them too.

    Sword as a weapon would be ok would make since in that sort of world, be nice to have something to melee with other than just bashing them.

    You do realize that some of the rare items especially any that come from a mission normally cannot be traded. Only the randomly found ones can be.

    Custom made weapons would further add to lag issues with the game having to render the weapon and the actions it would do. The game uses a pretty basic animation sequence to allow lots of players. If it had a higher animation level for strangely created weapons it would lag even worse than normal.

    Can we have a gun that makes the enemies *** prolapse? That would be fun, imagine the sound effect :). P.S Have not seen one Orange item yet.

    If there were any difference in weapon damage this would be great butttt there isn't a single gun in this game that you can't find multiple versions of easily. I think that's why there's no economy in it. I'd rather just salvage everything I have so I can get better gun mods. Good gun mods are harder to find than good guns. Also, orange guns are not worth it in my opinion. They've got a weird quirk to them but the massive flaws to counter-act them, making them no better than normal white guns if not worse.
