So you want to waste development time by adding bunch of weapons/gear with the same stats as our current versions, instead of using that time to fix the core mechanics/items that are currently broken? There's plenty of variety, but there's only one meta. And the best way to change that meta is by balancing out the current items, not adding more useless shit that we already have.

Looks like someone's been recruiting folks to further his personal agenda.

Very well. You guys are talking about a button to save your current inventory/equipment so you can withdraw all necessary items from your bank with another button single click at a later point, right?

Jup. OS-Scape style, go have a look

3 presets for regular players
4 presets for donators
5 presets for premium donators

Then you can remove left-click to attack for non-donators seeing as Rapsey considered it to be the only pking advantage for donators

Of course it's not difficult. It's implemented like this on purpose, takes literally one line of code to change. The deciding factor here is whether or not we want to.

I know it's not a popular opinion since most players don't care about it, but this stuff really is what has kept us online all these years. Our entire funding strategy relies on indirect support: the vast majority of non-paying players create demand for donator items, which keeps their value from crashing and gives incentive to the minority of donators.

AFAIK the left click attack feature is pretty much the only PvP advantage the status has. As such I can understand why most of you think this is a great suggestion, that way there is absolutely no more need for pures and such to get one. Unfortunately that also means the demand for these items will drop instantly, while the supply increases as pures who already had one can now sell it.

We never intended for the donator status advantages to be for skillers or mains only. The simple fact is that it's virtually impossible to give a PvP related advantage without making things unfair. The left click attack option is one of the few things we could use for that.

It's definitely not our aim to make things harder for newcomers. We've always tried to limit the advantages to things newcomers can live without, but rich veterans would be willing to spend some GP on to have it on all their accounts.

Well actually I made a little meme out of it just so it won't be forgotten and looking at the past spamming the fuck out of yell and every forum thread has 10x more effect than having a well written thread in the ingame suggestions section no matter how much support it gets it tends to be looked over.

I used to write half essays on ingame suggestions without ever seeing stuff even being looked at while some random Kishan jumps in for a week and spams yell when Mike is online about whip of magic needing urgent update and it was implemented in notime.

However, I still think presets are one of the best wilderness updates that can happen at this point in time so I'm actually serious about it's implementation being 2k17.

There's a thread about it in the pvp committee as well as in ingame suggestions but I'm not sure if exact mechanics are defined well but I/we will surely write that down if you'd be seriously considering this.
