So this server has free trade and random loot. I like the newness and I'm excited to try this new server, but if you really wanna try a crazy random idea..... How about when you create a character, you can pick the name and gender. But the race and class are completely random, and deleting characters isn't allowed, or you can only create 1 new character every few days to keep people from delete creating till they get what they want.
Sounds like a horrible idea as you would get many people unable to play the class they want to and they would just not play.
I’m in the minority of people who think this would be really fun... if people actually played their characters. I feel like a lot of people would rage quit instantly upon discovering that their first character is a gnome rogue, or erudite cleric. Ya know the random character thing is stupid popular in League of Legends and Overwatch for a reason...
They already have enough problems trying to keep the game stable without adding all this extra new code. People will get a bad roll of the dice and just not even play that account and go to a different server. Just no.
Nah, 100% random name, race, class. Join server: here you go, this is your character. Hit L50 & unlock CharacterSlot #2. Some will hit that mark faster than others, sure. I know it won't happen, but it could be an interesting condition, for a time. Also, I had no idea FV was 1 character only... SWG (may it brilliantly live on in Emulation) had the single-character restriction (not including FSCS), and it worked well - largely because of the sandbox skill-system.
Calling it now: Random character server is the next event server. Get rewards based on what you managed to accomplish with your one random character before the server ends. It'll be a disaster.
Just as stupid as it was in the other thread. All that does is have people sit at character creation rolling and re-rolling until they get what they want.
