The Jungle Gym is looking for Boxers. Do you have what it takes?

This could be a complicated idea but...

You go the dwarf guy in the gym. You ask if you can go in to the ring and box. Based on your strength the guy will tell you what weight class you are in.  So you go up against one of the guys you can box in Fallout 2. You can make up new people as well.

So he agrees to let you fight. You are then transported into the ring as a blue shirt you will get your stuff back when you win/lose. Or to active the quest the guy could ask for a robe as in "do you got your own robe?" So when you go into the Ring you go in with the robe. The fighting is real time and other players can watch but they can't interfere. Could make the Jungle Gyms a protected area like the Casinos.

If another player wants to use the Ring while you are in it they will be told "what are you blind? The ring is in use so you just have to wait!"

If you win you get paid and can ask to fight against a tougher fighter. But the guy will ask you to pay him. As in "Hey you proved yourself in the last fight but I am trying to run a fighting business not a cleaning business. I don't got time to be cleaning your pulped body off my ring!" So you pay to play. If you win against the tougher guy you can ask to fight an even tougher guy.

He will only let you fight again after X amount of time.

Another alternative is you and your buddy go up to the guy and ask to use the Ring. Again you have to pay to play. You will only be able to punch.

This could also be done for San Francisco but you can kick as well as punch.

Simple way would be you go up against one really tough fighter if you meet the requirements. If not you have to pay the guy.

Another idea of the Jungle Gym. What good is boxing if you can't have a cool boxing name? Well you are in luck. Do you have a robe? Take it to the man in corner that will embroider it with your nickname. Working on the same idea of Tattooing. Only with clothing.

This could be done with Leather Jackets as well. Of course you won't see the embroidery but clicking on it "Wearing a Robe that says "Styles" or whatever you want written on it."

Love the basic idea minus real-time only....
But let PC's get a prize if the loose. Just a REALLY smaller one (like 1/10th as big).

Quest giver is making a map of the wasteland landmass.
You approach the quest giver and he asks you to help him by exploring the wastes.
You can then travel across the wasteland and uncover more of the grid and then come back to the quest giver
to report of your progress.
The more of the wasteland map you uncover, the more you get rewarded per map tile revealed and you can return later to help the guy map more until you have uncovered all (or all of the tiles that the quest giver asks for).

What about the ocean/islands?

Find V-13;
You are given a job to locate V-13. Tandi (?) wants to find it for "historic" reasons. She only knows it's due west of NCR.
Grid by grid, you search; Eventually you'll land upon a strange encounter; A cave with some odd trash, a vault flask, a body, a holotape of the Vault Dweller's journeys, and Vic's radio. Going into the cave you find ants and rats.
To complete the quest you have to at least TRY to open the door, sonce you MIGHT find the fake vault (you can sell thus info to that guy in the bazaar, since "Maybe some gullible tribal trash might be interested.").
The site disappears once you leave.

It would be great to make use of some of the islands. It would be a lot of work but if someone developed a ferry boat, then it could be put into the game and act like the train system. You buy a ticket and get taken to the islands. Maybe just reuse the tanker in San Francisco until another one can be used. You buy a ticket and walk up the gangway and then it would be just like getting on the train.

There would also have to be a bunch of new maps to be made.

San Clemente Island for example has a navy base, in fact I think the navy owns the island.

The ferry system unlike the train system would be far less frequent. Maybe every couple of real world hours or whatever a in game day or two works out to be. The ferry would make a round trip. As in it leaves the mainland to Island A and from there it will go to Islands B, C, D and E and then back to the mainland. So it would be a slow system but it would work IMO. If you use it you will have to go to all the islands first before you can go back to the mainland.

I am thinking that there doesn't even need to be a dock built at every location. Just show the hull of the boat in the water and have the player spawn on the shore. When it's time for the ferry to leave have the gangway appear. Just make sure you have your ticket.

It is just a rough idea.

[Corosive]

there is already a boat vehicle in the engine...

Correct. And no picture. Something something top secret something and SEALs.

You could be able to buy your own boat/dinghy/motorboat at some west coast merchant and "park" it at your tent/safehouse made on coast. There is even quay/little bridge in your safe place...you can walk on it, so it can be usefull for this reason.

One day we will make use of water, boats, islands, etc. But not for the next session. A Waterworld themed update could come one day, but not anytime soon. One must perfect the land before heading into the sea...

[Mad Matt]

I did not want to hurry you up or something, just throw little smart/silly suggestions
Just like rising dmg of low tier weapons by 5-8 dmg points. Like Mauser, Hunting Rifle,etc.
Anyway to not make some off-top I would be glad to hear if you plan or willing to add these funny quest/job with hunting down bandits and/or slavers. You can bring their ears/heads as it was mentioned or...make handcuffs from junk or metal parts and bring them alive on their "court case" with jail/hanging on ending. It would be works likes slavery. You need to say that would be something new...and finally new option, not only slavery guild

[Corosive]

I've got something planned lol. Trying to grasp the bigger picture now. A lot of the major stuff I wanted to do is done.

[Mad Matt]

God save the Corosive, the last from wise and mighty people here

I am looking forward to your work. The other admins have been saying how much work you have been putting into dialogue alone and it's a lot. Hopefully much of it will be put in after the upcoming wipe on Friday.

[Kilgore]

It was said clearly that there will be no content changes on this wipe.
