I'm making a suggestion for a game on their forum. Currently, the game is point and click, and my suggestion is to make it WASD movement. The game company has proven itself to listen to the suggestions of players if they are popular, so I gotta do my best to make it the most popular possible.
Ok, so I need help with two things:
Title of thread: The title needs to be strong and effective, people need to want to click on it. Any ideas?
The suggestion itself: Needs to be friendly, and exciting. I must not critize the current method (point n click) since some people could get offended by that, and the last thing I need is a debate on my thread. I must point out the exciting and fun aspects of the idea, not compare it to the current system. People react well to emotional aspects, not intellectual ones, so I must not make the suggestion too “smart” and play on the emotional aspects we could find. The suggestion is best if it is short, and consise.
What would be the good points of WASD that I should point out? And how should I write it so that it sounds exciting and friendly?
Explain personal experiences, make a poll on these and other forums, show it all to them, explain to the company how WASD movement could further "immerse" the player in the game world.
1-Intro to how the game currently is.
2- Intro to WASD, pros
3- cons
4- summary.
Heres some tips
WASD requires 3d graphics, and needs a good camera function for it to be viable. Some games try WASD but lack 1 of the 2 (or both) and it's the fail.
Pnt - Click is sometimes better, but why not offer the option of interchangable for those cases where you would rather just ... click click click click.
Be friendly in the suggestion, with a subtle hint of aggresion, to get your point across without being stingy.
