RoadMap 04-05

The Roadmap for PE 04-05. Just thought Id post it since there was some talk about it in other threads.

A selection of PE content coming during 2004-2005:
In no particular order of priority.
[ul]
Add new functions to auction – adding functions like purchase orders of bulk items.

Add new functions to societies – society functions will be deepened and much more control will be issued.

Add new levels and professions for crafting.

Add stats to tools – tools will get the same amount of info as weapon and armor counter-parts, making it easier to assay them.

Advertising/Department stores – set up shop in a department store, advertise your stuff and become a successful retailer.

Bars – Bars will be places of relaxation and entertainment, everything a weary avatar needs.

Beauty/Body shops – Shops where you can alter the looks of your avatar, with completely new appearances and styles, including piercing and tattoos.

Bounty hunting system – are you annoyed because you got killed by some bully? Set a contract on him and make him pay the consequences.

Carpentry – new crafting profession, making furniture and other similar items.

Crafters will be able to repair items – meaning you don’t have to run back to the imperial communal repair terminals.

Enhanced chat/messaging system – allowing for more advanced functions, like grouping, blocks and offline messaging.

Event tools – make tools available for Project Entropia participants to organize their own events, with ticket sales, area rentals and rules.

Food/Drinks – a new crafting profession, food and drinks will enhance the avatar abilities.

Huge Mindforce update – both the way Mindforce the interface works as well as numerous new powers.

Land management system – you want to enhance your lands with new creatures, or perhaps add new minerals to it? Go ahead.

New planets – what lies beyond Calypso?

Notary/Reputation system – are you good or evil? Can you be trusted or not? This system will help determine what kind of person the avatar is.

Space exploration/combat – discover new areas in space, mine asteroids, fight pirates, enhance your space ship with additional equipment, weapons and shields.

Taming system – ever wanted to own your pet Atrox and ride it off towards the sunset? This system makes it happen.

Update “Pre-Gold” items to “Ancient” status – some items are truly rare and respected.

Vehicles– be a bus driver or maybe a heavy machinery operator. Or make a living hauling large quantities of ore. [/ul]

:evilking:

hehe and i hope that the “ancient status” and “animal taming” are next :wink:

It all sounds good to me :girl:

I just made a comment on the road map over on the Alchemic Dream board. Several of the things on that list will not come this year, as they are too extensive to make in the specified time and with sufficient quality. Right now MA is in a process of growth and change, and the current focus is to iron out old bugs and issues from the system - really fix and add “the smaller stuff” before adding huge systems.

:girl: nice to hear!

Good to hear Marco :thumbup:

Do you have any idea which of the things listed won’t come this year?
If I have to wait another year for vehicles and animal taming I’ll… I don’t know what really, something horrible I bet

We loooove you Marco :girl:

[SIZE=1]Sry for the spam. Just had to get it out public[/SIZE]

Maybe need to rename this thread : RoadMap 2004-2025 :wink:

Seriously, thank Marco to say it and thks to make the old bug a priority !
Would be possible to know what is not possible this year ?

Hopefully some more crafting from the road map will be implemented in 2005.

/Kjetil :cool:

Yes!

We need an actual roadmap rather than future projects and upgrades…

Can to you announce the ‘actual’ roadmap for this year again? :smiley:

with the definative implementations? not just speculations?

thanks Marco keep up the good work!

Cheers marco. Finally getting rid of some of those old bugs (hopefully ;)) :smiley:

hmm, well, i was so happy reading that list. i was in amazement. but, then hearing that it really is just a list of to-dos and some are not going to happen this year…well, who knows. we’ll just have to wait and see.

when is vu7.2 coming out? hehe.

Woho i want all of that :cool:

Maybe a lootrebalance would be good also,my impression is that average loot is way lower than before. Better mob AI to make all traps useless would be excellent. I hope to see that

lets first see what comes with vu 7.2 besides the appartments.
then after that look at 7.3, then the nexst vu, and after that the NEXT vu… and so on :smiley:
