Random / Suppose I wanted to do a WoW remake...
« on: June 21, 2011, 05:34:47 pm »
It's been a while since last time I made a post here. Some of you may have read my essay "Philoric's 10 levels of Warcraft". I can divulge that I've developed some of the ideas since I made that post, and others I've scrapped altogether.

Anyway, here is my question:

Lets say I want to create a private server for experimental purposes where I will be toying with quest creation, NPC placement, modified items including recipes and crafted items and then maybe some custom combat mechanics and mob-AI. I imagine it to run with a TBC-era client, say 2.4.3.

Which server emulator and other software would you recommend for someone such as me?
While I'm not unfamiliar with programming, I think you should consider me a novice in this context.

Miscellaneous / Philoric's ten levels of Warcraft

I don't know if this is the right place to make this post and if somebody would move it to another board
I wouldn't object.


Philoric's 10 levels of Warcraft[/color]

Ever since I first player World of Warcraft I have been thinking about how I would have modified the
game if I had the means. Over time these thoughts have become so numerous and elaborate that I
have decided to write them down and perhaps discuss them with like-minded people.

My ideas mainly concern making certain changes to the game rules and mechanics. Rather than making
changes  to the game content, I would change the way in which a character would experience it.
Because of that I believe my ideas would work just well with the original game content as it would with
any community made game content. While my vision for a new world of Warcraft has many aspects,
these constitute the core:

- Fewer but more demanding character levels that would each require more than just XP points
 - Zones and instances distinguished by their associated storylines rather than level differencies
 - Professions revamped from the bottom up, following a new itemization
 - New guidelines for talent trees that would favour generalist builds


I find it highly unlikely that any of these ideas will actually see realization and I do not intend to start a
project. All I wish is to share my ideas with people who have similar interests. Feel free to read through
my full essay on the topic, then contact me through a PM if you have any comments.

Regardless of wether your mod will actually come to completion or not I can volunteer to do some voice acting. I have pretty ok recording equipment.
