Call of The Valley - Sub-Repack 1.0

Frostbitten Repacks

Please note that this repack is not currently finished, keep reading for estimated release date as well as info.

Features / Info
Frostbitten Repack - Call of the Valley is a repack that is being developed before our main repack, as a completely seperate repack and release. This repack is completely focused around PVP (Player versus Player) action and the battleground known as Alterac Valley. Before getting into the nitty gritty details, let us give a very basic description of this.
Imagine a server, were there is no outland. No Azeroth. Nothing of the kind. The entire server - exists in Alterac Valley. But before you object to how lame that is, just imagine this. When players get bored of your blizzlike server, they usually hop on over to your funserver. But what happens when they get bored of that? They usually quit the server and go looking for some new server that has some new gimmick. Well, instead of losing your players - often players will say "Hey I haven't tried this AV realm, Maybe I will give it a shot.." and will try it out, love it, and stay forever and ever.
Maybe that was an exxageration, but still. Keep listening. Here are the finer details of the repack.

-Every single npc, game object, and item from the real game of World of Warcraft is removed. ZOMG! Yes this is serious, keep reading.

-Players will start off in Alterac Valley, with a default set of gear. This gear has the stats about the level of Tier 1. They are level 70, although their gear is level one. Players will start out with every single spell for their class already unlocked. How they manage to use them, which ones they use when, is up to them of course.

-Items use a different leveling system. You can ONLY OBTAIN ITEMS from a specific npc at your teams main base. You purchase items using Kill Tokens (discussed later) and you must have a pre-requisite item to purchase the upgrading item. For example - To get a Level Two sword, which has slightly better stats than the default Level One sword, you must have a level one sword equipped, and 5 Kill Tokens.

-Players start in a small cave close to their main base, here they will learn the basics of a server from a small quest, earn their mounts via a small quest line that teaches them how to play World of Warcraft (for newcomers.) and shows them how the server works. They will then go through a final small quest which will start them off with 7 Kill Tokens, and a key that allows them to escape the cave. (Without the key, you can't leave.)

-Kill Tokens are obtained from killing an enemy player. Every player killed will give you a Kill Token. (Besides the original quest, anyways.)

-To prevent ganking by maxxed out players, if you kill a player that is too low of a Skill Level "Determined by a fancy C++ script made by a friend, with every kill you will get a server-side skill point", then that player will recieve a bad debuff and will be out of action for 60 minutes. (When the buff wears off.)

-The Battleground of Alterac Valley is changed somewhat, and enemy faction NPCs (Commanders, ect) will give you multiple Kill Tokens, although they will not drop items or end the 'Battleground'. )

-Much much more information is coming soon, while this project nears its release. BOOKMARK THIS THREAD - THIS THREAD WILL CONTAIN THE REPACK'S DOWNLOAD WHEN IT IS RELEASED AS WELL.

Shameful bump, fell to the bottom of the page in about 5 minutes. Ack! Need some people to see it.

[jokerjokes]

Lol i see it, but sadly im sry i mean i would loveto help, but im working on my own server man. sry.

[Hellgawd]

I mainly need opinions on what people think about it, what should be changed, ect ect. Before it gets too far along in the developmental process.

[Life_Hero]

I dont like the idea so much sorry

[Hellgawd]

Thanks for your opinion, Demolisher.

[Skuxta]

This sounds like a good idea though I wouldn't use it.

[2dgreengiant]

sounds like a good idea but private servers not many ppl really do PVP unless it has loads of players

[God-Of-War]

hmm i thing it sounds kinda nice.. but as D2 said you would need a know server with many ppl and then ad this mabey.. dunno.. but i like the idear

[Tom_2001]

This is a sweet idea, but i don't think people who want a server on there own or with a few mates over a hamachi would choose this repack.

Only hardcore tons of member servers would prefair this if they are running a pvp server that is.

[Greatdrak]

This has been done before, i believe my toxic-wow...they used already made gear, but you got a gold per kill and lost 50s per death, so you had to spend a good amount of time farming gold to buy new armor...

conclusion: It was extremely fun EXCEPT, hardly any GMs came on to start up new activities or do some events...so it became slightly repetitive...

my advise: Give it a go, see where it leads...creating repacks cant hurt anyway

[Illidan1]

That would need some nice C++ skill to make another play drop / lose gold
I really need to learn some C++
Nice idea Hellgawd

Welcome Timmyvacc, to the team,

[Nightstelth]

This is intresting, it need some work. it also needs som thing (an script maybe) to balance the Factions around 10 +- and you could make them do quest to get to level 70 no mobs or just instant, and use the rank system to get stats, spells, tier sets or just random/specific items. But i dont think im qualifyed for this, all thought i will watch the topic

[Hellgawd]

Thanks for the opinion, Nightstelth. I am also revising the main post in the thread abit, adding more headers and categories as well as some - zomg! - screenshots.
Will edit this post here when I am done.
Edit: First post edited. Take a look
