There won't be much of a difference other than it's an event. Which is perfect, gangs are all about raiding. So why not an event that has to do with raiding?

I have my own restrictions in place so it can only be hosted once a week during normal gang events.

Not sure how that detracts from raiding, it's just more incentive to pk inside the base.

IMO raiding is its own thing, and events should be kept different and separate. However, from your second response it looks like you intend for it only to be used as a gang event? That's cool beans and all kinds of awesome. The once a week thing sounds cool too, gives it some exclusivity and blah.

My 'detraction from raiding' comment was meant to be in regard tonormal, non-event raiding. But again, my misunderstanding lead to this question and has been resolved by your answers. So cooooooool.

Gangs only get 1 gun
NO SHOTGUNS!
NO .05 FREEZE GANG GUNS (unless 13 dmg and 0 spread)

Make gang event Domination (yes COD domination)

Let people recieve money from kills in ULMS (whoever discontinued this was retarded)

Buff the Holiday Bows. As of now theyre just collectibles
Flak and snow cannon are good.
Cycle out the weapons during seasons or every 3 months.

Bring back the sharks, and fix the bleeding (bleeding does 3 dmg not 5 wtf give me my 2 hp so i can continue fighting or run) this is a game after all and we should have the option of running. now if i swim the sharks will take care of that

that should get pking back

ULMS is because for a ten minute event, 200k or so gets generated. If that's hosted 5 times a day, you've generated 1mil into the economy from pretty much nothing. Hyperinflation plz

Flak is OP and you either know it and have one or don't actually play.

sharks are cool, that'd be nice to see again.

Economy gets inflated with money from hosting ULMS when it rewards money for kills.
What are you talking about sales tax on weapons? o.o

Great event, Tim! Finally, a gang event that actually makes gangs compete at an activity they actually engage in. Wow! The magic of common sense. You'd think since events are for gangs to compete, they'd have been made to do so in the activity they always do normally, but nooo. Instead we fight to stand in a fricken circle (o.O?).

Well, enough of that. Great event, I can't wait to see it added to gang events (hopefully replacing KOTH, unless they can revamp it so some of its issues are addressed).

I say beds be the only things that heal you, or foods receive a severe nerf. There's some food item that has like no freeze (wth?). Newbs just eat as they run.

Flak Cannons and stuff were one set of items I wanted to get rid of but they wouldn't let me =[. I severely nerfed them but someone went and buffed them after. SO yeah, idk.

only being able to heal in beds while inside a gang base is a good idea. no eating foods inside gang bases.

I've always thought Flak Cannons should cause damage to the person shooting the gun.

Why not make the Flak Cannon like the Crizen? If you spam it, it overheats and stops working/causes pain to the player?
