Noctorious is a modern based rpg server, this means that it will be a mix of modern and rpg as well. Noctorious has many differnt unique features that sets it apart from other servers. As you can see in my previous posts we have had some updates and are still continuing along with them. Noctorious consist of 6 different jobs each one being different from the other. The first job is fishing. Our fishing system is very unigue and differnt from others. It has about 3 different rather enjoyable steps that you have to take to catch the fish. After catching so many fish you can head to the fishing shop and cash them in for a check and get paid. Another one of our jobs is bank robbing. This would be for our more advanced players as they would have to fight off waves of security guards and shoot down the vaults as well. This works well with friends, maybe team up and split the money or take it all for yourself. For our players who don't like to PVP or get killed while working we have a warehouse job. In this job you have to grab the crate and take it to a certain platfrom in the warehouse. After making it to that platform you drop the crate off and head back for another one. After dropping off so many crates you will recieve a check that you can cash at the bank for some mula. Another interesting job we have is hunting. This job would be for our more advanced players as well. Hunting can be rather easy or hard depending on how good you are with a weapon. Each monster has drops and each monster drops different items. Some monseters drop rare items that can be sold for a nice chunk of change. These are only a few of the jobs we have. We currently are in the process of adding 2 new jobs which I will disclose at a later date. We have also added levels, you can earn exp through, doing jobs, quest, or PVPing. Now I know your probably thinking this is nothing special but along with levels come 3 minor stats, Speed, Accuracy, Intelligence. Each one of these will play a big part in the servers gameplay. Intelligence being used for things like buying a business or certain guns. Speed will increase a players speed (Obviously this will have a level cap and will not be op) and accuracy will change pking completely. Im not going spoil the rest. For those who continue to ask "what makes Noctorious" so different from Era there is your proof. Keep in mind these are not all of are features and we do have many more features to come. Look foward for a change because it is coming.

We have one thing Era lacks the most, creativity and we are dedicated to making Noctorious the best. Not only with features but staff wise as well. What does this mean? This means we actually care about our community and the players that play and intend on doing all that we can to satisfy each and every player. How might we do this? By listening to others ideas and implementing them, by making sure our players are happy. This is what we do and we do it everyday not just to be the best but for fun. So for those who continue to put down Noctorious, just know its on the rise and will have some unthinkable features. It will be different, it will be fun, and it will be exciting for those who are ready for something new...a change.

There should be a librarian job.

Maybe it would be nicer if the server WASN'T staff only

Marcus cannot get on the Graal forums atm, and asked me to post this update:

10/8/11 - Updates ~ Paycheck System

Paycheck System ~ This allows a person to make a certain amount of money everytime they do a job. For exampl fishing, fishing is still the same you catch the fish and when your ready you head to the fishing shop and sell your fish. Everytime you sell a fish or a few fish it will display a message. This message will say "You need $435 to recive a paycheck" pretty much once you sell $500 worth of fish you will recive a check instead of cash. To cash this check you have to go to the bank and speak with the bank teller. Then a gui will popup with 2 options, one will be open a bank account and the other will say cash checks. Once you click on cash checks another gui will popup where you can scroll through a drop down menu for the check you would like to cash. After cashing the check your money will then be deposited into your bank account. This check system has been added to all jobs, each job varies on how well you get paid. For a visual example just have a look at the pictures on the Noctorious Facebook page.

Sounds very unnecessary, some may even consider it a stupid one.

[Clockwork]

Sounds like hell.

Noob 0: How do I do jobs?
Noob 1: How do I get money?
Noob 2: Why aren't I getting paid for jobs!?
Noob 3: Omg where's the bank?
Noob 4: How do I cash a check @ the bank!!1!?

[Deas_Voice]

checks hmm? here's some questions that comes to mind:
what about writing checks to other players?
are the checks a unique item for each check or do they stack?
if i have many checks, can i choose which one i want to checkout ( if they stack, that is)
can you give your checks to other players?

stuffs like that.
i hope this was a well thought out "system", if its not, it's going to wreck the servers economy.

We are working on a tutorial system that will cover every last feature so players aren't confused. Once you login a guide menu will popup and there will be a beginner guide along with job guides and such.

We have not started our big updates yet as we are trying to finish all of the small ones. You may see some of the updates pointless but in the long haul they will come in handy. It's the small things that count. Everything we are adding is Nooob proof so it wont be hard to figure things our or even find your way around the map.

You will not be able to sell your checks, they don't even show up in your inventory. The main point of the checks is so that say you just sold $1000 worth of fish and there's no atm in a fishing shop. So you have to run all the way to the bank or better yet you forget all about your money and decide to go pking. This prevents noobs or anyone from having to lose hard earned cash while working. Like I said this is a very very very simple system very easy to use. Pretty much its to protect you from losing money also you can only earn checks from jobs. You can't write checks or trade checks or anything of that sort. Yes you can choose from a drop down menu which check you want to check out. Each check will be individual from the other so say you sell $1000 worth fish you will get 2 checks for $500. Also each check says where it came from if it was from fishing it will say "Fishing Proceeds". There are pictures on the facebook page that show it step by step so just have a look and im sure it will give you a better understanding.

All pictures can be found on Noctorious Facebook page ~ http://www.facebook.com/pages/Noctor...68435333178411

Nice work so far but you should consider a tutorial if you haven't already.
