Mod Post #3
When we first started to make this game, we decided against trying to shoehorn in a premade “game network”. We know how useful and widespread it is, but given the setting, we arrived at the conclusion that forcing a network to immediately exist wouldn’t exactly work. So we decided against it. However, the technology for this does exist, it just doesn’t seem widespread within the Castle. The option to later have some form of long distance communication, such as e-mails or cell phones, is planned, especially as people start moving away from the Castle.
However, there have been some concerns about how having no network makes it harder to start off posts or tag people in general. We didn’t want an official network, but at the same time, we don’t want players to be forced into awkward posting methods.
So before coming to any decisive actions, we wanted to ask the players their opinions on this subject. How would you feel about a network? Is the lack of network affecting how you play the game? Would you like things to remain as they are right now, or would you really prefer to have some sort of portable communication device immediately?
Oh and rest assured that if we do bring in a network, you'd still be allowed and encouraged to make action posts, so don't worry about this.
