OCD: Lets Discuss

[mcprouty]

So this is where a conversation can actually be beneficial, so forgive my previous hyperbole in assuming you were yet another new person trying to “level the playing field”. though to be fair I drew this assumption not only from seeing so many people suggest just that over the time I have been on HWS, but from your own phrasing:

@Alandauron

My personal version of the OCD would be what many of you would call a minimal OCD which would function as a season jumpstarter in order to allow server veterans to still be rewarded for being loyal to the server while not being towering gods when compared to new players or those that have only been around for a season or two. It’s already a huge gap between those that are in a large faction/alliance without the OCD, OAM, and other HWS server perks but once those are all added in and the full extent of those that gap is much wider.

So here’s the actual problem with the OCD, people on the server have decided that it is off limits for Rex to do anything with the content that he initially created in the first place.

No one I think has ever said Rex cant do that. Or anything really. They may argue against it, or provide counter examples or other ideas, but at the end of the day, if Rex just shut down the server for literally no reason and just took a nap and went back to real life stuff, I dont think anyone here could really blame him.
But the awesome thing is that he doesnt. And that is why this server has turned into a full community, all centered around the dedication of a small group of people.

Onto the OCD thing. I think it would be awesome to see more interaction, modularity, etc with the OCD. As long as it is well thought out, and comes as an addition to the existing nature of the OCD. Alot of great ideas here, similar to my comment originally that Id like to see more granularity and small addons as purchasable features. Something like this:

• OCD1-5: as is. No change.
• Purchase 1 additional slot that lasts through exactly one wipe: 2 million credits
• Purchase 1 slot with ocd 4 rules (no gold, am cores, etc) that can be accessed in pvp with cooldowns: 4 million.
• Purchase 1 slot that will auto pull to your inventory’s 1st slot if enabled, and the slot is empty (aka magic
  bullet pouch): 10 million
• Purchase 1 slot for free that can be used in PVP, but if someone kills you twice in a row, it gets transfered to them immediately.
• Purchase 1 slot that is shared between EU and NA.
• Other special slots, there are loads of ideas that can work for this.
• Max of 10 “bonus slots”
  Basically kinda like an expansion pack for your OCD, so you can customize it to how YOU use it.
• OCD 7 as is becomes OCD 10 at same cost, and perhaps some more capacity benefits.
• OCD 7-9 now have scaled cost, and capacity that increases each time, so that 10 is about double the size of 5, spread along this spectrum.
