<title>Easy Fixes</title>
<description>&lt;p&gt;Yes, yes, there is no dev, no animator, no support from SOE, etc.&amp;nbsp; So, what ideas do we have for &quot;new&quot; things that could be added with little or no actual work on the development side of things?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1.) Masks&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We&amp;#39;ve got a decent variety of masks available already, but a bunch of them are locked away as &quot;holiday&quot; specific.&amp;nbsp; Some are, I believe, also dev/mod grantable only.&amp;nbsp; As has already been discussed, make all masks usable all of the time.&amp;nbsp; This includes the main characters that we don&amp;#39;t have pre-created masks of. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2.) Spawns&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m still not personally sold on just how much of an impact these could really make in player events (how many times could you trigger a spawn without it becoming &quot;lolz lupin armee attak!!1!&quot;.. it could be the same as just another person getting kidnapped, another person getting infected with a kill code, another person getting corrupted by their dark side, etc.). They do however have some use in PEs, and can be a useful and strategic tool in PvP.&amp;nbsp; We know these tools already exist to some extent, so could they be repurposed for normal use in a simple, easy way with no real work for a dev?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3.) Props&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They can be extremely dumb, but they can be fun too.. and they could aid in creating different PEs.&amp;nbsp; Players should be able to create props (or, more likely, appear as props) like the helicopter, etc .from the anniversary party.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<title>Re:Easy Fixes</title>
<description>I like the mask idea the most. Seems the most do-able and least risk for ... how you could say, player abuse. Being able to use the Halloween Masks as permanently usable items (like the gang and boss leader masks) of the characters we have would really be awesome for ppl&apos;s personal RP events. Even the Holiday Hook... uhm &quot;Helper&quot; mask would be a blast to use year round too ... lol! If anything, got to have &quot;Lady in Red&quot; &lt;img src=&quot;/mxo/images/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;SMILEY&quot; /&gt;

<title>Re:Easy Fixes</title>
<description>&lt;p&gt;I just think theyd be a nice image to add to the game, based on the amount they were in the movies... Vehicles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No matter what people seem to think, Vehicles would be an easy add-in. We see it in the Party events all the time where they make our models into vehicles in the game. Just make it a mask and increase movement speed and youve got a working car. Helicopter is another story, youd need infinite Z movement like a HJ on steroids, which makes these only useful in evading combat better XD.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The main problem is the effect it would have on running away from a fight or attack, and they would prolly kill the Spy tree when the person is on the run. But make them unusable in combat and I think this can be fixed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just an idea that Ive been throwing around since Beta... still prolly gonna get the &quot;Why&quot; and &quot;No&quot; responses... but Im still hoping atleast.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Making an easy fix isn&amp;#39;t the same as turning an RSI into a car.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Turning an RSI into a car isn&amp;#39;t the same as making cars available.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Making cars available isn&amp;#39;t the same as making them work realistically.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Making cars work realistically isn&amp;#39;t the same as satisfying the playerbase.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your suggestion is divorced from reality.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
