We will most likely have a 24hr day/night cycle so yeah rl days. The map can be endless with procedural generation   

endless you say?

so with the oceans surrounding the slo continent...im assuming one can just....go

An endless map isn't realistic though, is it? Unless, the oceans lead into oblivion or something.

An endless map is not unrealistic but in a gaming environment it's very, considering beyond the maps of the villages their would be knowing but landscape other than the stress to your gpu and cpu it would make no sense to even have it

Vreg said it will be possible to steal from other shinobi. He added that it will alo be possible to be caught doing so - I'm guessing an extension of the 'spider senses' that some shinobi conveniently display in the show. As to how it will work, ofc, I have no idea.

As for killing the Kage

*sigh*

It will be impossible in his office. UNLESS you somehow manage to incapacitate every single NPC police shinobi, every single village affiliated shinobi, you manage to knock out the Kage, take him to a perma death zone and THEN kill him.

(Ignoring the fact that whenever you knock out any of the aforementioned in THEIR OWN VILLAGE, they simply respawn at their hospital. And then go back...and fight you.
Whereas you and anyone assisting you will respan hours away in your own village)

So in a roundabout way, it will be possible to kill the Kage from his office, as long as you have about 3-4 times the amount of shinobi and police that the village have.

And yes, you will need alot of shinobi for it. This game is skill-based, before it is stat-based. Usain Bolt may be the fastest human in the world, but he is not 2x as fast as the average human being. By the same logic, the best player in the world may not be able to kill 2 average shinobi on his own.

I say may because I do not know as to what extent skills will separate individuals. Currently, it may be possible, but that is because there is not a jutsu that suits everybody's style of play.

The way you just described it, makes the game seem solo pvp or pve based, aren't things like killing and knocking out be done through rp, better yet shouldn't it be done by rp

How many jutsus do you expect to have in the full/final release?
The main goal for the final release is to have 20 jutsu/skills per skill tree. The major jutsu skill trees are Taijutsu, Ninjutsu and Genjutsu. Jutsus like Medical-ninjutsu, Sensory, Shurikenjutsu and Kenjutsu each fall under one of these skill trees.

That smartass tl;dr comment almost made me not read this wall of text but my curiosity gave in. I get that y.

Buildings: From what I've heard, the community will be able to design some buildings (not sure if only on the designing stage or also when the game supposedly comes out), if there's a management side to controlling a village then I think we could start with a pretty basic village like the one we have now and then build these kinda stuff as the village grows. Not sure this is the case though but imo that'd be pretty cool.
Although yeah buildings like library and prison should be standard. I think we'll have restaurants to start with as well.

Levelling: Levels are by far not the only way to engage someone. The ELO rank would probably suffice to keep people motivated to play. There's a special sense of freedom in being able to do every jutsu if your chakra enables you, you'll try and find new jutsus, learn them and beating someone by mere skill, jutsu knowledge and physical development (aka hp and stamina). That imo is much more fulfilling than getting squashed by high lvl characters who are invincible for lower level players. Anyone could beat everyone with actual game skill instead of with time spent playing the game.
Ofc the more you'd train a jutsu the easier and better it'd get in-game.

As for the issues @Manuster shared, there's a simple solution to all that: Experience is dealt based on damage given+hp recovered. There could be some more variations into this such as points for trapping an enemy or luring towards a trap and stuff like that but the original formula would already cover most damage dealer and medic shinobis.
But overall I'm against levels in this game.

Well I'm not sure I completely understand your aversion to ELO ranking but I kinda exposed my point already. With the adjustments I proposed it should prove effective for all kind of shinobi. No leveling up, just experience gathering with some weapons/jutsus to make them more effective and ELO system based partly on this experience, missions performed and fights won. @Vreg seems to be a reasonable person so I think he will be able to balance out fun and logic in this ranking system, my way is just one way of doing that imo.

And even if shinobi's killing each other,they shouldn't be waited in the woods ,enjoying nature and the awsome graphics, by a bunch of genins trying to get the chunnin grade.
