[Suggestion] Inns (one quest at a time)

from Elemental Forums

My party was doing an escort quest from an inn, on the way to the estate, I had to pass through two other inns, only path between sea and mountains, I kept getting new quests for each inn I passed through.

Please limit the quests to one at a time, so if I'm already escorting some one and have to pass through a inn, I won't pick up another quest on the way.

So you have to go back to them later? Isn't that a waste of time? "Wait, my Sov has to go back half the map to pick up that other quest he couldn't pick before and will be crossing fingers that it doesn't send me to this area again..."

Between now and release I imagine organizing quests, and the quest system in general, will undergo many changes.  I think limiting players to one quest at a time would be pretty unpopular.  Furthermore, there will be a lot more sophisticated quests implemented, and I'd hate to be given a difficult quest which may take half the game to complete and not be able to undertake simpler ones in the meantime.

The quests are take them or lose them, if you don't take a quest at an inn, it goes away (lost)!

The issue with multiple quests, the map only shows the locations of current quest location needed to complete quest (escort to estate). There is no way to view or track multiple quests (list of open quests) or be able to see multiple locations needed to complete them.

Well, strictly speaking the map shows the locations of the current quests, yes, but all the the quests you're on are current quests, so the map shows all of them. But I'm guessing that's not what you were intending to say. And you can get a list of open quests in the handily named "quests" screen in the kingdom info window (although the interface there needs some hefty improvements.

In beta 1Z it was limited to 3 open quests

There is a quest tab in the kingdom summary.

A suggestion I had was to use the Quest tab under the kingdom report to show you where you should take each noble you had. I had one game where I saved and came back later and had like 4 nobles and I kinda forgot where to take each of em (they were relatively close) and I had no way of double checking to know exactly what the objective was.

Maybe show a minimap when highlighting a quest under the Quest tab that shows the objectives as glowing markers, both the noble and his destination. Hope this helps or sparks some ideas :O
