Sorry but flash is totally out of it, nor did I use Newgrounds or whatever as a reference.

It'd be fun if games like I mentioned would be implented in the game, because it takes your mind a bit of normal exploring / fighting, a new spice

Interactive games in which you have to control your character are fun like chess = teambased (teambased thinking) which is fun, brings out a bit of each person's strategic knowledge XD.

You can tell when someone has played WoW when you look at their ideas for GW

I've played WoW but it sucks, only 1 idea that may appear to people that I got it from WoW, but i've played lots of other RPG's so it's not only WoW, besides even if I didn't play them potions would be neat for the people that don't have healing skills.

I didn't think about WoW when I got these ideas they just popped up.

x1 Energy Potion (Recovers 33% of Energy)

Consuming potion takes 2 seconds, and during this time, you are easily interrupted.

There we go. You can have potions in the game, it is not spammable, you cannot use it in the heat of the battle. And it does not heals much.

I believe my Craft Idea would be somewhat better then this.

#8:
Ability to see what level your guildmembers are, gender and Faction @ the Guild pages.

#9:
Maybe some chart with all the guild members listed, which displays how many battles they've been in ... how much people they've killed, how many times they died and in how much battles they've been in and how much battles they've been in that they've won / lost.

#10:
Ability to change your hair at a barber or something? 'dye's' for your hair?
It would be cool to see people with green punky hair walking by ;p
This is to make unique(r) characters.

#11:
Ability to be allies with other guilds, good for huge-communities ;p
Being ally should give an advantage (developers think of this advantage ;p), ofcourse being ally costs both parties 5000 gold (reasonable).

This ideas are great... I luved the hair dye stuff

Yup those would be cool too, Deathmatch should be 1 vs 1 or something, and CTF with 2-8 players.

Every class has a self heal, If you choose not to put any into the attribute it's your own problem. Guild wars is a team game, just to mention.

Although, i would love to see mini-games of some sort added into the game.

I definitely think there should be more options in customizing one's appearance....

But I need ale to fight!! It makes the solo UW run so much more
comical!!!

Also, Perishiko, regarding the self heal dealie. Every class has one, but
that doesn't mean they're good. Ether Feast downright sucks, Healing
Signet paints a bullseye on your ass until it triggers, and Troll Ungent
has too long of a casting time. And Aura of Restoration.....*shudders*

Monks and Necros are the only classes with constant, reliable self
heals.

The more customizable features for your chars is already being addressed, the Frog has spoken on this issue, as well as some of your other suggestions.

As for potions, terrible idea, this game is about grouping, bringing together different professions to cover each others weaknesses to form a cohesive group capable of adapting to circumstances. Potions give certin classes to not bother to group and be more self sustaining, moreso than custom builds have already attained. The magic system in this universe does not involve or revolve around potions, it wasn't designed this way, introducing it now would unbalance the game.

Potions would be stupid. It would make it so it's "A battle of the richest" in pvp. I don't want to have to waste all my cash on gold so I can use potions more than the other team. Why do you think potions we're banned in every diablo 2 duel? If you're monks are too noob to keep your team alive don't whine about it here.

And ether feast isn't that bad of a heal but it just won't keep you alive without monk support. (Its like 75 health with 6 insperation

)

Use your brains, there are alot of times where there are NO monks available and the henchies are crap.

Yeah I've had the same problem, but I still don't want potions in the game. Use your head: If potions are in the game you will have to spend a fortune to be the best at pvp. Even if they are cheap you shouldn't have to keep spending money on a gold sink like that.
