No more creature or item magic.  just life and war.  strip the code to 1999..  $1m programming budget.  release as a free game with ads all over the place and premium content and whatever.  it'd make a killing.  they could hype it to get like 70% of the old players back...

Although I would love to see AC re-released with the ORIGINAL code from release day, with a graphics overhaul.  I don't think I would play it if a the magic in the game would be cut down to just Life and War.  Creature and Item Magic were intergral parts of the game, it allowed lower level characters possible take on higher level characters.  Lets face it an axe weilder with item and creature magic stands a better chance agaist a war mage if he can buff himself and his equipment.

Honestly I like alot of what AC did but I don't like the idea of the no comps for spells anylonger only tapers.  Also rework the randomized tapers for people.  Make figuring out spells difficult again, also the crafting system needs to stay as well, but get rid of the Marketplace and all the BOTTing.  I remember it took the first guy almost 2 years to get to max level of 125 I think.  He was useing a basic experiance chain and a massive guild to help him, now people just do a /market and get a bot to buff them from level 1-100.  Which can be done in like a week.

Ahhh AC If only Turbine would give you an overhaul I would be back playing for another 3 years.

I completely agree with you! It wasn't actually that bad to have to put together your spells comps to create it, figuring out the combo was pretty tough in itself. Taking out the spells really wouldn't help, when I quit there were more spellcasters than anything.

Strip it back to 1999, yes. Make it free with ads, no.

Update the graphics engine majorly, not that little crap tweak they did with the expansion.

Personally, I left because they tweaked the game so far beyond what made it great but to come back now I would need it to be like the original with updated graphics. What can I say, I am a graphics whore now.
