Forgotten Tales

​I understand that our Game Masters (GMs) are currently dedicating their efforts to the game without separate labor compensation. The goal of this proposal is to channel a portion of the revenue generated by this idea towards the GMs, fostering their increased activity and engagement. Furthermore, this initiative aims to mitigate fixed operational cost losses, such as server fees, and enhance the overall game environment (e.g., preventing server lag and increasing monster spawn rates).

​1. Subscription Model & Pricing
​The exclusive hunting ground will operate on a subscription basis, initially proposed at $100 per month. (Should this idea be approved, the final price will be determined through consultation between the developers and GMs.)

​2. Access Mechanism
​Upon subscription, the user will be provided with an Exclusive Key item in their inventory. This item will automatically be removed upon subscription cancellation or non-payment. (Alternatively, a system could be implemented where the key grants access for a set duration, similar to PvP protection.) Access will be granted upon interaction with a designated NPC or portal located at a fixed entry point.

​3. Hunting Ground Environment
​The exclusive hunting ground will feature either dedicated premium monsters or existing high-efficiency monsters, such as the Dark Blood Mummy and Ancient Golem, with increased spawn rates.

​4. Group Access Privilege
​Subscribers will have the privilege of including 3 to 5 authorized players to join them in the exclusive hunting ground.

​5. Technical Specifications
​Similar to event maps, the exclusive hunting ground will have no limit on the number of monsters that can spawn and sustain concurrently, ensuring optimal farming efficiency.

This may have changed but my understanding is the game mechanics only allows for a specific amount of monsters spawning per map. Even if someone has a massive spawn of one kind of monster it can affect the spawn amount on another monster on the same map. So that would have to be changed as well as the spawn limit when you would have to move to a new spawn spot. Maybe I'm wrong but I'm thinking the whole game would have to be changed not just a supercharged single map. Someone else may have a more definite answer and provide that here.

By all means implement this idea, with the stipulation that when players leave the premium hunting map their stats and levels reset to where they were before they entered.

Plus, Gullander is correct.

It seems you are concerned about the concept of Pay-to-Win (P2W). Instead of implementing a system where players pay approximately $100 to instantly gain 100 levels, wouldn't it be a superior model if they paid $100 and then leveled up through an investment of effort, albeit with acceleration? This seems better than the current methods.

Since this is a subscription service, it will generate stable revenue even with only a small number of subscribers, and I strongly hope that the resulting income will be invested in improving the game environment. This includes measures such as increasing the limit on the number of mobs that can be active per map, as you mentioned.

I agree

There are plenty of idle RPG games on the playstore. FT has never been that and never will be.

The Premium Hunting Ground will be subject to the same rules as the existing hunting grounds. Naturally, AFK activity is strictly prohibited.
