My feedback on the calendar system:
Calendar Functionality –
A lot better than I had expected. Only suggestion would be to add a way for people in a guild to “sign up” for an even rather than have to be invited and then “confirm”. One way to do this would be to let players create three types of events: Sign-up, invitational events, and guild announcement events. Sign up events would be guild-only events that guild members would be able to see on their calendars and sign up for. Invitational events would function just as they do now, as would the guild announcement events.
Calendar Art/Graphics –
Seems like a bit of work needs to be done in this department. The spacing between each day is somewhat buggy. I often see brown background lines popping up in between the calendar days and it makes it look messy. Also the current black 50% overlay that covers the days that are not part of the current month looks a bit tacky. I would say either make it a new texture, or make it brown so it blends in a bit better. Currently when you create guild events or invite events it changes the background of that day to an over-scaled icon. I’m sure they are probably placeholders for the time being, but they definitely need to change. The fading from black on the bottom of days that have events looks a bit tacky, the whole black color just doesn’t really fit with the brown troll-ish layout of the calendar.
Overall –
I think adding a border similar to the current-day border, but thiner, around every day of the calendar would improve it’s overall appearance. It looks like a lot of time was spent working on the calendar and I’m very excited to see the final product. =D
