IDEAS FOR RYZOM

To make those "fish" working, there is already some people at work outside of ryzom.

And to answer mjolren, this forum section is not only about asking feature it's about discussing them.

And as Gidget say change for lazy people are ofen a bad idea and are easy game breaking thing.

But still can be nice to discuss about stuff even if it's to be done by an enthousiastic dev/player (but those are many what really count is most often free time to do things).

Ryzom is not design for lazy people as it is more and more in "AAA" mmo, having to know the ground and find the best wayto reach one place or another without porting can also be interresting in some event.

And wait untill we will have the fishing occupation :p

Wherein is the frustration? You swim, you get wet, all the dirt washes off so you are clean when you come out. Whilst swimming you get to admire the landscape around you and the lakescape below you.

Unlike running in Forest or Jungle or Desert you do not have to worry about being attacked or eaten or shot by bandits. And if you do haul out on a beach and are attacked, safety is just a few meters away.

If you need to go fast, use teleport pacts or New Horizons. They beat any surface travel speed, be it swimming or running.

Water Mounts! That would totally be the best solution to this... And it shouldn't be that hard implementing, since it works more or less on a different project's server (khaganat).

Other than that i agree that swimming gives you the benefit of not being attacked and that it is a fair downside that you are slower.

that there's absolutely nothing while swimming is a part of the frustration.

Nothing? I saw some fishes...
