Ask NGD - Reply Week 2

Hi,

The replies to the community questions of the week are:

Will there be some sort of auction system or any other kind of
enhancement to the trading system? (English Forum)

Although we never had the time to devote ourselves to improve the trade system it is something that we would like to enhance.
The reason for postponing this development is that although it's not perfect we do have a working trade system in place. If we do it, we will go for an auction like model as we feel it is the system that would better fit Regnum.
We don't have plans to do this in the first half of 2011. Hopefully we can get to this before the end of the year though.

Will NGD publish non-sensitive formulas that run game mechanics? (English Forum)

Combat formulas? No.
The formulas are quite complex and we don't want to open a discussion about them. The ones of you that have been looking into them are somehow quite accurate, so you can continue with those efforts.
Formulas that calculate your performance (like player of the week and other future rankings)? Maybe.

Do you plan to add a system of professions and occupations? (Spanish Forum)

Regnum is a game primarily for War and we want that aspect to differentiate us from other titles. While we have addressed this issue many times and with different ideas, we never got to a model of “crafting” that does not look like a heap of boring compared to fighting in PVP or RVR.
We are not planning to address this issue this year (except for revolutionary idea: fun, easy to make and not break the rest of the game).

Are you planning to remodel the Middle Zone and War Zone, as the initiation zone? (Spanish Forum)

The middle zone is the most difficult to improve because the structures present there are many and complex. The war zone is our main objective to improve and that’s where you spend most of the time. The new forts and castles are along these lines (will come in the first half of the year).
If it were up to us, we´d change the entire game from scratch. But, as always, all improvements that can be added to the game are related to NGD financials. If NGD is doing good, financially speaking, then we could include all the features asked in the questions and many more. Let’s hope we have a great 2011 to do so!

Also, in Ask NGD - Archive you can find all the answered questions from past weeks.
