Topic: The Think Tank

We are looking to make some serious improvements in IC, both in rules as in gameplay. To come up with the best way to do this, we have created the Think Tank.
Over the next days we will invite a small group of experienced players to a forum to discus and brainstorm on ideas on how to make IC a better game again.
We will keep this group relatively small to avoid chaos and keep the discussion as smooth as possible. Do not feel offended if you are not part of this Think Tank, it does not mean we don't appreciate your opinion. You can still vent your ideas in the ideas forum. We will keep an even closer eye there, and take all good ideas into the Think Tank for discussion.
Please do not apply for the Think Tank if you haven't been invited yet, this will not help anyway.

Re: The Think Tank

Just trying to give everyone a little update . At short notice our thinktank members will have a meeting.
They will discuss the following points. Not all points at once offcourse, more meetings will be needed.

1. Farming, one of the biggest problems that frankly influences all other subjects and thus handled first.
2. Making this game interesting for new players, experienced players and vets.
3. Concrete new ideas to change the game to make it interesting and more dynamic.
4. IC Design.
5. Advertising to gain more players.

Re: The Think Tank

So far the TT has made some groups (topics) where all ideas, options and possibilities are discussed.
Not all groups have equal priority of course and we do not know what directions each group will go.

GR 1 - Scoring system - progress -> some new options are spoken about.
GR 2 - Limit farming in game (Morale system) - progress -> a higher moral loss is a option.
GROUP 3 - Virgo and the first round after - progress -> we will have a tutorial first. more ideas are worked out
GROUP 4 & 5 - Game play changes - progress -> Multiple topics already about this
GROUP 6 - [secret]
GROUP 7 - Design - progress -> there are some ideas but we need a better overview from the overhauled game.. we can use more designers this year.
Group 8 - Forum and profile - progress -> all kind of improvements this group is thinking of.
Group 9 - Advertisement. - progress -> We need the game overhauled first, but this group is working on some ideas
Group 10 - Control group - Keeps all groups and ideas in check and reading/discussing those things
Group 11 - Documentation - our guide , hall of fame , wiki -
Group 12 - Development - progress -> elro and ps are doing a fine job

(Thank you primo for the secret part lol smile , but i wanted to add that our developers working on the new interface for the mods too and its a 100% improvement what they have sofar )
