most MMO out there have a stupid marketing approach, this usually is spend several months building features put them together and call them expansions and if developers spend 6 moths doing this the feature developed on month 1 stay 5 months whit no real feedback from players and even worse developers add new features on top of that untested feature

i give you a example for this
some developer add fishing to their fantasy mmo and then on top of that add cooking, some will say if they only release fishing will be a half implemented feature  but wont get real feedback about this because ppl will make it to get materials for  cooking
so first release the fishing get feedback is this exploitable if boring can be boted what stuff can make this more interesting like crafting the pole etc

after you get this done work on the cooking feature, so there will be a market for raw fish maybe some one wants to be full time fisher if the cooking is not done rigth that profession wont exist and that means less economy and less sand on the box

tl;dr: develop->test->ship the feature-> get feedback->make it better and never ever build a feature on a feature that is not tested and you dont have feedback

1 make sure you have 1 gb extra RAM
2 install this software http://memory.dataram.com/products-and- … e/ramdisk? is free for ramdisks under 4gb
3 install the software and create a ramdisk the size should be 1000 MB
4 select the unformatted option
5 go to load and save and create a image so the program save the ramdisk, so when you stop the ramdisk the game will be saved there so you dont have to copy the game folder all the time
6 go to control panel -> disk manager and make a new partition on your ramdisk
7 you will have a 997 mb disk now
8 copy the perpetuum folder on the new disk
9 on perpetuum settings disable combat and chat log or remember to move this files from time to time to other folder
10 move the screen shots after you make them

if you have a SSD you wont need to do this, this is mostly for ppl whit 7200RPM HDD

i hate item shops allot, i hate the fact some games add items that you only get from paying additional $ to get them and in my opinion a person who pay the monthly fee should have access to all the game content/items whit no restriction. Also i prefer to have a more expensive monthly fee that a item shop ingame.

so devs do you plan to put a Item Shop ingame ?

change the chat icon to something like this http://i.imgur.com/TGrh1.png so is more intuitive
