Thread: Suggestions Thread (?)

  1. #1

    Suggestions Thread (?)

    The only other thread that came up with a remote title is this, so I wanted to create a thread where we can pool ideas together and hash out ThirdStyle awesomeness. I've pooled these ideas most randomly from people in chat and included some things I'd like to see in the near future.

    Now, it's given we don't have a lot of resources (e.g. willing coders), but I figure we can recommend some of the below ideas and pester the admins to implement what we want ;)
    Code:
    The Big List of Stuff We Want:
    
    "TS The Game" specific:
    1. Multiplayer support. I know a lot of the active users want this. Tell me how you really want it, with detail. Suggested 'MP Lobby' similar to SMO.
    
    2. Combo and Accuracy Masking. Self explanatory.
    
    3. More detailed High-Scores list. In addition to percentage and rank, a side-by-side comparison of x/x/x/x when clicked onto a user (scrollable).
    
    4. 5+ key playstyles. Self explanatory.
    
    5. Bigger Up/Down - PageUp/PageDown buttons so you don't accidentally click the sidebar itself and scroll all the way to the bottom songs.
    
    6. Arrows: Ghosting and Mirror options. Purchasable noteskins via SP shoppe.
    
    7. Replays.
    
    8. widgets.
    
    9. "'No Holds/No Hands/C-Mod mode' after talking with people, majority said these modes should disable leaderboard ranking/scoring when toggled on, and will allow for fun free play, not for leaderboard ranking."
    
    10. Auto-fail and strict mode (read in post below).
    
    11. Option "Press to Preview Song."
    
    "TS The Profiles" specific:
    1. Photos. A <Previous Photo> and <Next Photo> button to cycle through. If we really want it TSpace - album creation.
    
    2. Enter-key parsing, specifically in Wall Comments. Posting anything more than a paragraph of text makes it looks cluttered.
    
    3. "Friends." I know personally this is being worked on. - Completed
    
    4. Status Updates. AKA Random Thoughts.
    
    5. BG editor. Show/Hide information sidebar. I know this has already been tested, but not implemented.
    
    "TS The Chat" specific:
    
    1. Title choice. Previously unlocked titles from reaching a certain percentage should be able to be selected and used as your greeting into chat.
    (ex. Greeting <Title> <Name>. OIOI WADDUP BREDDA.
    
    2. Better looking smilies. Designers?
    
    3. Alphabetical list of users in descending order.
    
    "TS The Songs and Artists" specific:
    
    1. Backstage clean-up A comprehensive list of songs available to play and listen to organized by song title, artist, and genre. Dropdown menu of the 3 categories should -include- the song, artist, or genres, already available to view. http://thirdstyle.com/backstage/artists is chunkymonkey.
    
    2. Link in-game song to Backstage artist-page to promote support.
    
    3. Open stepcloud
    
    "TS The Forums" specific:
    
    1. Thirdstyle forum in Thirdstyle board has 8 stickies. Recommending creation of new forum: "How To: Thirdstyle" or "New to Thirdstyle? Read this first!"  Stickies such as 'How to Earn SP'; 'New to TS?'; 'Lag problems?'; 'Terminology Guide'; 'TS Information Thread'; and 'Creating Stepcharts,' can all be moved there. 
    
    2. Thirdstyle -> Thirdstyle -> Simfile Review and Thirdstyle -> Thirdstyle -> Designer Review. Both forums can be moved to a ThirdStyle sub-forum to reduce board clutter.
    
    3. Music News, Games, and SUaS can be collapsed to Media to reduce "Core" board clutter.
    
    4. Collapse Thought Required into Life & Stuff. It's an unused forum.
    
    5. Really really quick tutorial videos in addition to the new forum.
    
    6. Open Stepcloud to the public to view, rate, and review, not add or delete.
    
    
    "TS The Merchandise" specific:
    
    Too soon
    Please feel free to add ideas, thoughts, and discussion (hate, fighting words, slander) to the list.

    Store bought Noteskins :D
    MP Lobby (4+ Players, only you show however)
    Video Tutorial/Interactive Front Page tutorial for users new, something that explains what to do once you've made your account. If this interactive tutorial cbf to be made, then I propose one of the more experienced members on here make a video tutorial with voice-over and everything. I might help with it if needed.
    Open Stepcloud (Available for all to view, members can play/like-dislike/comment, only simfilers/admins/publishers/designers can upload files)
    TS Merch LOL yarite k next
    Real Time updates on Friends like subscriptions on facebook.
    Editable BGs on profiles I mean it's not necessary, but anything to keep players coming back and looking through profiles. Don't lie, everyone's profile surfed before. :)
    Stepcloud Simfile Maker like a way to make steps/view charts on-site as if it were SM/Ddream
    Single Digit Good Marker next to songs you have a x-0-0-0; x<10 The pass is purple, AAA is yellow (3A), FC is purple (FC), you know that stuff.
    Facebook/Newgrounds (Thirdstyle widgets). Would be nice little game to give us alot of views.
    No Holds/No Hands/C-Mod mode after talking with people, majority said these modes should disable leaderboard ranking/scoring when toggled on, and will allow for fun free play, not for leaderboard ranking.


    Spoiler!

    this seems kinda stupid, but ghost notes can be kinda distracting: Where you are hitting consecutive holdnotes and then the note appears on the keys when it's not there...

    Nice idea for making this thread Lito!

    How does a nigga get grind on his dick in here?

    On profiles, the right side is fairly full with stats, friends, forum posts, (simfile charts for simfile artists), etc, that the right side seems semi-cluttered. Maybe have an option like on FFR to show/not show certain aspects of our profiles?

    imo looking at the threads in the forums looks cluttered from the first post being in the description under the thread title, maybe cleaning this up a bit??

    another one could be for making a new simfile review page, because imo again, its quite cluttered and not very easy to navigate or find files, maybe a separate page that shows which files have been submitted and have stats on if they've been reviewed, accepted, rejected, etc??

    Minor thing now that "Friends" have been added -- on any given profile, it will only show 12 images under friends, even if there's more than 12.

    Would it be possible to make a link where it says "Friends / xx" that would take you to another page to show all of the people you have befriended? (Showing other people's entire friends list is entirely unnecessary, really.)

    Would it be possible to implement a top 12 where you can arrange whoever you want? /lolmyspace

    Oh yeah, like i suggested before, during gameplay, there's a small toggleable bit which is similar to the screen when a song is finished, which shows your best score, and current! So you know how much perfects, combo, mistakes you don't need!

    And also an accessible timeline *AHEM facebook* which shows what you did during certain periods of the song, and can zoom in to see specific part so you know where to improve!

    Hah, widgets.

    For Chat #1, I actually asked about this before; the response I got was it would defeat the purpose of the title system.

    Also, there's an alphabetical user list in the forum member search.

    cheezpuffs, do you actually know what you're suggesting? xD It seems like a lot of coding work for such precise and un-necessary aspects of the game engine.
    I haz le #1 post count, bow to your true overlord. >:3
