Got a couple of ideas after today's Hinkley action.
« on: March 30, 2015, 06:41:54 am »
Make it a weekly automated event. Maybe just a simple announcement right after the Broken Hills window. It's healthy for the server because it introduces newer players to PvP and will help them overcome the initial fear of losing gear in Reno or looking for a faction. Also I'd like to see those big "Pray" signs replaced with the number of players in each room so that we can balance the teams better when there are big swarms inside.

Yes it gave me an idea as well. Add the option in the computer to autobalance teams so that people who can't stand to lose dont just pile up in the side that wins making the matches less fun. Maybe a forcefield on the door that keeps people from coming in once a certain amount are inside and teleports out extras already inside from a list of people you can choose. But only make it an option for the person creating the match so if one team is really bad it can be turned off so they can have swarm to stay competitive.

This gave me yet another simple idea, inspired by you, beer  :P. Give match creators an icon over their head similar to when you follow other players but perhaps a different color. This way we will know who the hosts are and if they are trying to be trolls or forget to start the match.

So, more Hinkley action. Numbers that show how many people are in each room. An auto balance feature. And last, but not least, anti-beer prevention  :P

Hinkley needs a resolution to drug addictions. It's possible to take drugs before the competition, but it's impossible after they wear off, which often leads to weakness of some characters.
OR make the NPC/Trader/whoeversheis able to remove addictions for the time of fights, OR just give her an ability to give drugs. I almost had 6AP [with 9 Agility/9AP basically] - Nuka Cola, Jet and Cigarettes.
Or let's make Jet Antidote craftable, lel.

Drugs will be available in hinkley, and effect only active when ure are inside, don't worry for that. I also like Melt's idees, when kilgore makes a "Hinkley call" there are always nice fights to do.
