Aye, it has been suggested before.

Assuming you mean 1-time only quests like "Go here, do x, bring back y". No, I don't think that would work, as I doubt SOv3 will be of the scale to hold numerous quests. Maybe a few fun quest lines, but I doubt there would be the room/time/effort to build hundreds of quests for players to do.

However... I think quests in the realm of hunting quests/bounty boards would be awesome. Basically, everyday you can go to the bounty/hunting board, and it will be like "Kill xx amount of yy type monsters" - completing it offers gold/exp, maybe a chance at something else. And every day it would be a new quest, so there is something new to log on and do everyday.

I'm sure that Meiun already has a quest system ready for SO3, and it's too much of a bother with SO2. You might be able to suggest specific quests, but as we know nothing of SO3 that might be difficult.
And Forum, try to be more lenient before saying things like that. I don't recall any quest suggestions on this forum.

I have to say - quests seem to be in every MMO, but they're actually very boring.

I'm not completely against the idea, but quests in a traditional sense are incredibly unentertaining. That is, like "Kill 10 monsters", or even worse, "Retrieve 10 monster drop". It depends on whether or not crafting, clan towers, and other player-interaction-based game stuff is a big part of SO3. I think having a system for players posting rewards for certain actions that they want done - like, "Get me 10 Steel ore and 1 Power Diamond, I need to make a Great Sword. Reward: 10k Gold" or "Recruiting mercenaries for an assault on the Shady Gang tower in the Blobby Woods. Reward: 1k Gold for Recruit; Additional 4k Gold if the assault succeeds" - would be a good idea.

Ultimately the idea is whether or not your quest affects the game world. Killing the same monsters that everybody else in the game has already kiled for the same person in different fashions over the course of an entire leveling career is an immense bore and would be completely detrimental to SO's gameplay. Think of Minecraft - EVERYTHING you do affects the game world. And Notch is now a rich person.

Just some thoughts.
Whee!

Stick Online is simplicity. If you want quests, parties, guilds, ranking system and other stuff play maple or sthelse.
Seriously, the SO concept is perfect as it is and simple as it is.

Considering they keep saying SOv3 will change things up... I think you best start looking elsewhere if you think the game would not benefit from any more added depth. (Especially simple things like parties/guilds, which do almost nothing but help the current combat/PvP of the game)

To each his own though, but I'm sure many others would not mind additional things instead of SOv2 all over again.

Wow I'm really liking that idea. I know that I personally would be kept more active if this idea were implemented.
