If the Hokage chooses, there could be possible problems : 1° too much work for the Hokage since he has a lot of work -_- 2° in the manga/anime, it's teir lives, their superior's order... if you wanna stay in the village and be a ninja, abide by the rules; while here, if you're in a team with someone you don't particularly like, it could end up bad and people may just quit (no responsability on the other side of the screen) 3° if a player gets inactive after the team players reach level, say 45 (yeah a lot), what happens to the team? at that level it would be difficult to find someone to replace him "untill the end of all times and missions" 4° may have GMT issues ...and i'm sure there are a lot more ...so maybe stick to choosing your own teammates? I agree with team missions from time to time (or just make it that there are NPCs impossible to beat alone, so people will HAVE to find help). But maybe change teams from time to time? Whenever we want to... Depending on those who still play the game, those who are about your level, those who are the same GMT as you and of course, those who are still called friends.

Just saying "nice idea" is against the Forum Rules and Guidelines (you may want to read them) As stated previously on the forum : when the game is finished, yes, you'll be able to choose where you start from (but there's a chance there will be a wipe so you'll have to create a character from lvl1 like evryone else... if this will be decided on, Rory promissed something like "bonuses" for the alpha/beta -testers) "And wat type ninja we would like be" (as you put it) : you'll be able to choose alright, the hair, the color, the eyes... Stats : same for everyone. Clan/Ability : this is still being discussed, but most likely you won't be able to choose up front (since this could cause the Uchiha-SPAM-Syndrome and everyone will choose the Sharingan) "The only villages which currently fully seem to be make-able in my opinion are the Leaf, Sand and Sound. But of course if you guyse really want other villages you should start to collect pictures and images about how they look geographically, to help out." And this : yes and no... Well, Suna and Leaf have already topics where people who want to help can post pictures, so as to help the staff. Sound was debated if it should even be considered a village and if it should be in the game... Feel free to ask this question to the most active players in the Shoutbox. I agree with Suna and Leaf and the if I'd have to give a third village, it would be Rain, since we've seen it in the Jiraiya vs Pain & Tobi vs Konan arc... and also there are some pics from games and stuff.

it's not to confuse enemies or pretend to be someone else... i think he was just saying that even when you have the mask on, people should be able to address you,a new identity like "hey, yamamoto! yeah, i recognized your mask som' new?" instead of "hello there ANBU n°21, lovely day, isn't it? ^^ " also if you do something cool like kill 20 invading ninja by yourself, people would start saying in the village "wow, that anbu yamamoto is realy strong! i wonder who it is =o " and also this way ANBUs could talk between them while in the village, without giving away their id's and also withour saying "hey ???? what's up?"

don't worry, Rory, take your time i can't see anyone saying you're lazy with all the things the staff has done in such a short period of time! looking forward being again in the game (after work )

this looks tough to implement : according to different scenarios, what would the summon do... it could be a good idea though! still, i'd go with : random attack the enemies and if you want to, you can get behind your summon

@thedigblackbick oh, that's what i would've called balance :mellow: well if you say it's called "imbalance", idc (may even be called "balanzdroid"), as long it's tha same thing, meaning there's always a way to counter/ i.e. "being paired with the wrong enemy" big cooldowns could be cool, maybe should be a little worked on, but it's like the idea of "using a jutsu for a limited amount of times during a fight". of course, 10min cooldown means you'll use it once (but oh well, if it consumes a lot of chakra, than it's the same... or maybe reduce cooldowns with lvl-ups)

why is this discussion even being held? you agree that you don't know the battle system, but you're afraid of it being unbalanced... WAIT and SEE, maybe it's the most perfectly balanced equilibrated stable system in the whole universe that has already gone extinct and it is still to come...

the first one looks a lot like the memorial stone for those who died in action... must be just me, bad eyesight, sorry -__-' yeah, they will certainly add it, don't worry anyway, as long as the server's down, we have no idea what they're changing/adding, so the best thing is to wait and suggest these once the game is up again can't wait :mellow:

This should be after the contract and once you've reached lvl70 o/

Nice. The jutsu drop you mentioned it with the summons, but i agree it's a nice idea. Some academy students getting the chance to learn an extra jutsu compared to the others could be the manga version of : sasuke knowing the katon in the academy or other stuff... Agree as long it's just a "fun jutsu", to brag, and not OP (quite the other way around). There will NOT be gloves+1, gloves+2,...,gloves+99 in the game. Rogue Ninja NPC sounds more like a RPE, but the idea could be fun. Still, it should be balanced somehow, cause i can see already all the upper levels going to search for rare items everywhere and i'm sure the point of the game was to make it as balanced as possible. Maybe a requirement to unlock the NPC Rogue Ninja and nobody can see/touch the bad guy except you...

Error 404, Friend Not Found

Welcome to the community! oh darn, wrong speach <_< Seriously, thanks to the staff for the opportunity to finally play a game like this, it's the game i've been waiting for all these years ^_^ Happy Monthiversary!!!

if that would be the case, there would be people abusing it... "i want to be a hokage guard ^_^ (hum hum, i'm just gonna fight half-assed and get killed so i become an Academy Student with Jounin level stats)"

So does this mean the number is between 30 000 and 33 498 ?

1. Already discussed. 2. and 3. Partially discussed. 4. Already discussed Everything will be further discussed at a time "far far away" from now, patience. Or just look for the topics already made : check the forums, scroll, or just use the "search" feature on the forum. I think the staff (and the other players) would appreciate it if these posts don't become redundant... But I have to agree these topics would be less made if unique topics on each matter would be stickied...

hi Robin, heard so much about you nice to finally meet you here, we will be in your care ^_^

This should be changed when you have time for it I mean "where do i download the game?" at least can now be answered

Nice ideas, i kind of like where some are going For more information, you can refer to this : post 9 : genjutsu suggestions posts 14 (Rory) and 16 : not only genjutsus will stun post 20 : kai/release idea + genjutsu resistance post 21 (Rory) : cooldown confirmation

same problem... happened multiple times +1 this should really be implemented (guess it's one of those things that got forgotten in the beginning) yes something like that, and you could catch-up to others only by using Shunshin no Jutsu

nice list! as a gold member, i think though that the golden head protector should be enough : this way people can choose to show "hey, i'm gold" or not... agree that these have been already posted, but checking the forum, listening to people and putting all the ideas together... i think that's what makes a good thread a "sum-up" should have been posted... why not this one maybe there's one already even more complete than this one, then @Tydon you should post the link to it instead of just criticizing, people tend not to know when to stop on this kind of forums (debates can go for veeery long, but a good placed link always ends discussions efficiently )

took the words out of my mouth! diagonals is the answer! cause just right angles means you'll have at least to get on the same axis (X or Y) with the target, basically rendering you vulnerable for the time to position yourself, which would loose all the purpose of longranged attacks...

this + players will only think about being TOP1, which at this early stage means : every man for himself! KS people! what bugs? I don't have time for those, I have to get Number 1! I'll show you the real Naruto Uzumaki! Fist Rasengan!

Personally, I acknowledge the whole : it's alpha, it will get a wipe, no worries thing I'm not against KS in a full launched game where everything was fixed... It's also part of the game. And there will also be many more "scorpion spots" (places with npc monsters to kill) But still, at this point, I have to agree "against KS" for the same reasons people say "it's only to test the game" A one in a hundred player could get a specific bug that the others didn't have Let me explain : - it's about testing fights : those that did the mission with no worries, good for them, let other people test the system too, you never know what they can find out YOU missed - it's about testing leveling up : same argument + they will need exp for this - it's about testing every aspect of the game, stuff that comes with new levels, new items to get etc. : same thing SO IF YOU (yes you, dear ks) HAVE NO BUG TO REPORT, WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO PREVENT THE POTENTIAL BUG DETECTION IN THE GAME? Seriously, it won't do you no good... As for the game, there will be more players to bug-test the new things that would be available with new levels (for example). That's why at this point i'm sooooo against it. Because it is potentially slowing down the game progress. (personally, i didn't see this coming, so first thing I did was check the map, see how graphics are and stuff... then i wanted to see "if all goes well" in the missions/leveling-up/items sections... big mistake apparently)

very helpful to those who are still wondering ^_^ i guess @Ryoshi will contact you to merge his topic and post all the chat options and the interactions between players just wanted to add/ask about one thing on that : if i'm not mistaken, the /trade option works only if players are next to each other (not sure, but if this is true, you should add it so that people don't say "why this ain't working???!!!" anyway, posted it here, not on the other topic...

I call this "I'm on top of the world"
