Era Updates!

businesses in general are limited to a select few people. that's a dumb argument in my opinion to say that public bher is more fun than private bher. of course it is. if going by that logic, anything private should be made public.

[Thanatoses]

Wouldn't be the first time he made one of those in this conversation.

In any event, those examples were irrelative to this situation.

Mall = NPC-Ran (Two of those is just dumb).

Gang System = Deals with players / player-owned. (Two of those is silly)

Catch my drift?

Speedy Pizza = NPC-Ran
DH and DD = Player-Owned
(Both exist and are fine).

Gun Shop = NPC-Ran
AM and GP = Player-Owned
(Both exist and work competitively fine. Gun Shop always stocked, but other two are cheaper).

Public System = NPC-Ran
Bounty Hunter = Player-Owned
(Two existing is far better than either alone, players can have fun and the business can make its money, everybody wins), except you and Chris . But, you'll be Iight.

Also, I'd appreciate you all not ignoring everyone else that had something to say on this matter. Disrespectful of you two, apologize. =]

So you atleast agree that I'm right.

Bounties are entirely different from the jobs of other private businesses. Taking what I said out of context is pretty ridiculous because everyone knows stocking isn't fun at all.

[Thanatoses]

Well, duh... lol. Whats fun for 1/2 people, would be fun for 50/100 (more people).

Some people have fun from obtaining profit, stocking may be boring... but getting paid to do is fun for some which is why they do it. Therefore, allowing everyone to do it will render the same fun for alot more people. .

But, wait! Owning a business is fun... hm, why not give everyone a business, eh sales?

I don't know about you, but when I was a newbie I begged to get into a business. it's not just stocking and mining, it's actually being involved with the business and making it function that's fun. you may not think it's fun since you've been playing for a few years, but it's a whole new concept to new players to be able to run a business. too bad it's private and only focused towards a select few players.

I agree, I'm actually a very strong advocate of player-run businesses (having run a few myself), but we're not talking about businesses in general...we're talking about Bounty Hunting.

you're missing the point here.

one of your arguments was that bounty hunter should be made public because it's more fun that way. there are a lot of things on Era that would be more fun if they were made public, I don't see why bounty hunter was targeted.

Thanks, but I didn't forgot... I just assumed he has enough sense to get the point without me naming every circumstance, hope I'm right, for Era's sake.

[Vman13x]

So I had a 5k bounty on me,I was walking around in a pk zone not really caring because I knew a noob was going to attack me,whereas if bher was here Id have to be on constant alert and ask wil when I have a bounty on me I run like a noob,so they cant get it. Now A guy walks past me all I do is pull out my gun if I did that to bher Im guaranteed dead because Im not as good as them.

Does anyone use the new public Bounty Hunter system?

Number of bounties placed: 263
Number of bounties completed: 214

Number of accounts who have in some way participated in the bounty system whether it be through accepting a contract or being hunted: 308

Days in service: < 6

[Thanatoses]

You're talking about Bounty Hunting in general, I'm talking about the Bounty Hunter business... which are two separate topics. This has been my point... your system has nothing whatsoever do with us, o.O... nor affects us, lol. You're trying to prove its better than us... to do that, they must be comparable meaning room for competition. Thats your system, uncontestest... if our stats were recorded, with no doubt... thats easily beaten.

Not our last two weeks, but the first six days. Also, 308 number shouldn't be mentioned, random people can just hit accept contract and just forget about it and etc...

[Pelikano]

308 different people play Era in less than 6 days and use the BHer system?

Makes a lot of sense, eh?

People live in different timezones and im assuming if you used the BHer system more then 1 time it counted you again
