Jetpack price

Admins · #1 02-03-2005, 04:12 AM

What should be the cost for the jetpack? I have planned 5000$, but since it is the first item that you can only buy once I thought we should discuss it may be. Tell me if it's too much or not enough.

Jetpack: let's you "fly" by using an energy-driven engine, you can go over walls, players and houses with that; it requires one hand/arm so it is mainly interesting for sword fighters or when you want to do a shurtcut, may be we can also make the flamethrower only use 1 hand then you could use it in combination with the jetpack too.

Should be around $10,000 considering its going to be a "new release" and it will be the first item purchasable.

Do NOT make flamethrower for one hand, please. That would be, not only unrealistic, but the flamethrower has a huge radius and people with flamethrowers will begin to own like that.

Then I will need to play some weeks though to get the money

Or not buy so many medkits may be ...

Hmmm yes probably need to wait some days to see if flamethrower will be interesting enough without the one-hand thing, and with the removal of the explosion when used while being on fire.

I'm thinking somewhere around 3k-4k, most people don't even have 1k. It takes quite awhile to make money. Maybe more ways to make money such as from missions or mini-games.

Barista · #6 02-03-2005, 09:57 PM

3k-4k is way too little and easy to get.

MasterNuke · #7 02-03-2005, 10:06 PM

10k or 15k... or 12.5k O.o

Admins · #8 02-03-2005, 10:42 PM

Ok let's say 7.500 $

I made a quick top of the richest players on Zone, probably forgot some players, but will soon make real top10 or top50 for exp, money, kills and deaths:

1. 84554 General Siwin (tao_clan1)
2. 49056 Mike Jansen (witkonijn)
3. 47829 Outlaw Immortal (SergeTrigger)
4. 25016 Sergant Deiji Shiro (Joe733)
5. 23182 Sage_Shadowban
6. 21783 Moonite
7. 18225 rykuz
8. 17601 Ed (MasterNuke)
9. 15130 unknown (Knux02)
10. 13138 Lance Leone (Lancelot9)

There are 40 players with >5k, 138 players with >1k

Fair enough, I suppose.

It's lame if the powerful weapons go to the strong people who dont need the strong weapons.

Just a question if you fire a flame thrower -> way and you use your jet pack to burst -> way wouldnt you technically catch yourself on fire? Think about it ;O

You can't set yourself on fire.

That's what I get for upgrading to 200 mortar ammo, 500 shotgun, and 1000 of the others. -_-

I hope there will be other cool purchasable things after the jetpack.

Jetski With Guns =o
Limited Edition Guns ((events and trade ware))

Zone will never be complete without the Shark Ray.... you shoot it at players, and if your ray hits them, they get bitten by a shark that comes out of the ground.

Splke · #16 02-04-2005, 01:27 PM

Oinkess -- youre kidding me.

15k sounds reasonable. I've goten around 30k in my small amount of time playing.. heh, spent it all too. 1.2k in my Kv24 (or w/e) and around 900 in the aprippers. Oh, and like, 150+ of each nade. -laffo-

...Forgeting the fact that each time you enter a newzone, and pick a new class your inventory gets wiped then revamped? And their is no real 1 on 1 in zone.

I'm surprised I'm so far ahead of the rest since I bought max ammo for every type of weapon :O I also buy medkits all the time :O
