World Events (for real men)

The 100% exp boost was nice coz it was puting players to play togheter to grind grind grind exp, tho it was nice seeing some lonely areas full with players i personaly want something way more bigger. I was thinking of something that shapes the world or changes the next events of the world depending on how players do. Simply as a village could or could not end in a fire or a forest could or could not be deforested, a full map can be invaded by super bosses that gives nice loot, an area that goes under water , earthquakes, thunderstorms, hurricanes, depending on how players react and succed or not would realy make the game outstanding.

PS. its 2017 where is the horse racing??

I guess to do this they would need some kind of live events/dynamic story writing team.

It's a lot of resources to place one something which could or could not happen. I know EVE Online tried to keep up with events in the games lore and make world changes regarding actions. However sometimes it can take months to get a Dev who is free to do that bit of art or modelling you need.

I always hoped that the dark anchor over white gold tower would one day spawn a full scale invasion that spread deadric mobs outward in to all of tamriel. Because they would spread out from a central location the density of the invasion would decrease the further out they went making it easy for players to beat them back from outer zones but requiring a mammoth cooperative effort closer to the source. Tbh it would probably melt the servers though

Cool idea, but having people cooperate in PVP central to beat back an invasion wouldn't end well...

Would be fun though ^^ A True war tough call. Do you work together with the ennemy to solve the crisis or kill each others and be overrun then end up with AP malus for the next 4 weeks ?

Im smaller size MMORPG I played it was pretty common for in game GM to set up some events, do some RP and do some background changing events.

Simple enough but pretty fun to play : the attack of a main city by ennemy forces and their leader (who was almost unkillable and required a hell of coordination to put down) some people would slow them down, some people would work with the druids to set up a trap for their leader, some would work on collecting the materials, some people would escort local nobles and citizens to safety, and so on and so on.

It is clearly harder to manage with nowadays population on the servers but I wish we had this kind of fun

My childhood playing Zelda made me want them to do an event where the capital cities get these chickens who walk through, then every once in a while if you hit a chicken then thousands will stat falling from the skies attacking everyone. Ah! Rabid chicken rain! (Which is weird...chickens can't get rabies).

It would be silly, but funny.
