pking

so, to get rid of the runners?

When going in to a no-pk zone, you need to wait five seconds [at the idle position] before you can't get hurt, if you get hurt within these five seconds, that timer will restarted. What's your opinion on that?

Crow · #2 09-29-2008, 03:12 PM

Yes. We've even already discussed this on RC. Go for it.

xAzerothx · #3 09-29-2008, 03:15 PM

That would suck.

Do it.

How would this affect going into buildings? Aren't shops non-pk? So they couldn't go in there until their 5 seconds was up?

Na, the shops would either be pk, or they would also have that timer.

DarkRenji · #5 09-29-2008, 04:01 PM

What about bleed out? Like your bleeding then run into a no-pk would that reset the timer evertime you bleed a lil?

Would houses be pk-zones? such as th serwer ones?

Frankie · #6 09-29-2008, 04:08 PM

small areas such as shops could be camped though making it extremely hard for players to buy stuff.

Yocas · #7 09-29-2008, 05:12 PM

Stun gun.

natchez416 · #8 09-29-2008, 05:17 PM

Do it.

Shops need to remain no killing zones; imagine you withdraw $25,000 to be killed and lose three-fourths of it.

I like the idea of the five second delay, but not at the idle position; you can't expect Era's players to stand still for five seconds.

Understood · #10 09-30-2008, 03:32 AM

maybe certain places, such as unstick me, you'd have to stand still...but other places, like shops, you don't have to.

Yocas · #11 09-30-2008, 03:49 AM

Oh. How about have it where if you fire your gun in non-pk zoned areas you'll be marked as hostile and can be attacked by other hostile players for 5 - 10 seconds.

How would shops be able to be camped, unless the campers set up the ambush in less than 5 seconds of you walking in the door ? I could be wrong but from I understand if you are in a no pk zone for 5 seconds or more, you will not be able to be attacked or attack other people.

If you don't want to lose your money, wait till you are safe in no pk mode in the shop before you withdraw your money. People will have to be smarter.

It is an excellent Idea. People love to find ways to criticize other peoples ideas. Little do they know, this is one of the best ideas to be implemented into era in years.
DO IT.

Makes no sense at all. If you withdraw the money before you're safe you deserve to lose it.

What if he can't deposit it?

Well you'd need to be in the flower shop for more than 5 seconds to cash in all those flower. He'd be safe long before the point he needed to deposit the money. think : (

DarkRenji · #17 09-30-2008, 05:39 AM

I can see alot of people getting mad about this, so here is a idea.

Make the OSL a indoor level with about 4 ways in and out and make in complete no pk?
and everwere else pk o.o

xAzerothx · #18 09-30-2008, 06:16 AM

Why would people get mad. I completely agree with your idea.

Maybe the mall could be the osl. I don't know how it works on Era but that seems like a good place. You could buy/sell items easily and it should be pretty populated.

Ketama · #19 09-30-2008, 01:05 PM

make everything pk zone, xcept for hosp and unstick

Good to see that not everyone on the server is a carebear.

Frankie · #21 09-30-2008, 04:12 PM

I tried to decrease the number of no pk zones on the server. I actually did 20 or so levels connected to the gmap. Players started to ***** after they saw how dumb it was to have their lockers a pk zone z.z

xAzerothx · #22 09-30-2008, 05:28 PM

Well lockers should obviously not be a pk zone?

Frankie · #23 09-30-2008, 05:43 PM

my argument is that people want all these pk zones but then after it's done they realize how much of a dumb idea it was.

Yocas · #24 09-30-2008, 05:44 PM

Lockers being a PK zone never bothered me. No one was ever inside when ever I had to use my locker. If it's going to be made an (ugh) non-pk zone then make it at "unstick me". I really would rather all of the non-pk zones to be in one area; not scattered across the map for runners to escape.

That's why SNK's system will be a big improvement.

This never made me mad, most the times you go to get something and someone else in in there, they wont bother you because they dont want to have a chance or dying :o

Exactly.

Still voting for having all levels become a PK zone excluding hospital and unstick; which should all be in one building.

Kneegro · #28 10-02-2008, 04:30 PM

Imagine! when you are shot..Pk Mode activates and you can't enter no-pk zones! or you can...but the person who was shot can still be hurt. So like now matter where you run you are kill-able! Muahaha... : ] Oh and uh..I guess whomever shoots you activates it when you encounter them and whoever has shot you has a chance at killing you even if your standing in a no-pk zone. : ]

CharlieM · #29 10-02-2008, 11:34 PM

The being shot and losing your pkablitiy is dumb, its a stupid idea because all someone has to do is shoot you once, wait make you think your safe shoot you just before non pk and your screwed. Shops can be easily camped all someone has to do is set inside with some friends around the door wait for someone to run in and BAM BAM *dies* I think its fine how it is...

Yocas · #30 10-03-2008, 01:13 AM

Ok, like I said before, why not have it where if a player fires their gun they are still marked for PK for 10 to 15 seconds; almost like how RPG games are ran, excluding the random guards that attack you after wards.

CharlieM · #31 10-03-2008, 01:31 AM

I like yocas idea

Kneegro · #32 10-03-2008, 03:18 AM

Charlie the whole point in my idea is that shops can be no pk zones still.

So you're saying, once you enter a PK zone, there's no turning back?

Kneegro · #34 10-03-2008, 03:41 AM

No when you enter a pk-zone and you are shot...no matter where you go the person who shot you can still kill you : o...I dunno how easy that would be to make.

CharlieM · #35 10-03-2008, 03:53 AM

I still like yocas idea because then your admitting you want to pk what if someone has to do something they are running to unstick one person shoots them then they have to die

Kneegro · #36 10-03-2008, 03:57 AM

Survival of the fittest. Don't get shot. It's not hard to dodge bullets. : ]

CharlieM · #37 10-03-2008, 03:58 AM

If your on a laggy, old computer like me its hard, but im getting a new pc soon...hopefully

Kneegro · #38 10-03-2008, 04:07 AM

That's their problem if they have an old computer! Muahahaha! And I'm sure PPA will be of some more use if this system was used. If a player is raiding and gets shot by multiple players and runs into a no pk zone those people who got shots off on the player will be able to kill him off if they catch him. Who knows perhaps there can be a time limit to how long the players have a chance to kill the player in a no-pk zone.

Yocas · #39 10-03-2008, 04:30 AM

PPA would be much useful with less to NO non-pk zones. With all of the non-pk zones out today, they have all the protection they need.

Same goes with BH. Once they pretty much know they are on the list, they'll camp out in buildings whenever they are being chased.

Kneegro · #40 10-03-2008, 05:00 AM

Hm how about this, unstick me is inside a building that once you leave you cannot go back into(Unless you Unstick). As for shops they call be put on an island you need to take a boat to get too! and you need to pay to get on that boat and it takes about 1 minute to come and pick you up. : O
