Large thriving towns/cities like Defiance from the TV show.

[Hypo Psycho]

I would very much like this in game.
Somewhere to socialise and RP would be a start.
With players saying that "this isnt WoW" and outright saying 'NO' then dont visit the town, you dont have to after all. But i'm sure that those against a 'large thriving town' would be all over it when we get one.

People use the "This isn't WoW!" line for every suggestion in any MMO nowadays lol!

[jameswithaz]

i would love this, and to save space they should just add a door to the town so you go through a loading screen to get to it

[Draconerus]

I wouldn't mind it being open world for the fun of defending against raiders, Volge, etc. However, if they have a power grid then a loading screen would work.

I would really love to see some large thriving towns/cities like Defiance from the TV show. This would add a ton of immersion. There could be an auction house, all vendor types, bars, basically a bustling city full of NPC's and make the game feel much more alive. I could imagine a bounty board with generated contracts and other cool things these could add. We NEED a social hub.

Things this could have...

1. Bank

2. Auction House

3. Player housing

4. Bars

5. ALL vendors

6. Contracts

7. Player customization via barber shop/plastic surgeon

We could also have dynamic events/raids where we have to defend the town from raiders, mutants, Volge, dark matter etc. in different situations. I'm, not saying that the power grid needs to go down, but there could be conflicts outside the town/city that we need to defend against.

I absolutely love the game, but these additions would keep me playing forever. I would also like to add a few things to the list as well:

1. A decent crafting system - I would eventually love to see harvesting too. But for now, if we could just craft weapons with looted items, it would do until harvesting is implemented.

2. Fishing - An mmo always needs something to do besides constant combat. Besides, we could use the fish for food buffs.

3. Bounty boards - When killed in PvP, we would have the option of placing a bounty on someone. A bounty board will have you on it and anyone can pick it up. After being killed, or arrested, you go back to your boring life, and the hunter gets paid.

Trion needs to just implement a lot of Rift's awesome features to Defiance...and all will be good.

Yes, thriving towns are a must for the atmosphere of the game, as for everything else:

1. Bank for storage , Yes needed.

2. AH, not needed and don't need anymore jack-a-holes trying to monopolize it.

3. Player housing, can take it or leave it.

4. Bars, Hell yeah.

5. Vendors, definately if including clothing and weapon reskinning.

6. Contract Board showing daily and weekly contracts and where to go to complete them, Definately!

I really like the dynamic events idea, alot of other things besides races, rampages, and hotshots Please!

This all sounds great. I don't know how difficult it would be to implement into the game but with the support the game has gotten so far, and with the success based on number of players that the game has so far it seems that this wouldn't be totally out of the question.

This would add another element to the game and would give players a couple of spots to meet up, a nice hang out spot, maybe some card games too. Things that hold our attention for a little bit while we're not going through missions or arkfalls.

The longer they wait to add content like this, even just immersion/RP content the more players that are gonna leave.

[Raife]

I think this is a must, but it would have to go along with the TV show. They'd have to make it a big deal that a colony is being developed in the Bay Area. Maybe even have a TV episode where Nolan and company help to build/defend it. Season Finale big deal type of thing.
