Ok,so everybody knows that after reaching maximum lvl, best stuff gathered game is becoming a litle bit boring... You know - have everything so what to do? Especialy with milions of caps?I have some ( IMO) interesnting options:1. there can something like stuff upgrade for big amounts of money.Lets say there will be armorer in enclave who can TRY to upgrade your armor.Each attempt would have some % in success ( lets say 50%) and cost lets say 100 000 caps.Each upgrade would rise all DT by 1 and DR by 1%.If attempt would fail item and caps are gone.2. Same could be done with weapons uograding:Lets say there will be weaponsmith in Brotherhood who can TRY to upgrade your weapon.Each attempt would have some % in success ( lets say 50%) and cost lets say 100 000 caps.Each upgrade would rise max dmg by 1If attempt would fail item and caps are gone.
@ this actual suggestion:Just +1 DT for one armor (1 DR is almost nothing) is not worth it for 100,000 caps.Just +1 damage for one gun is not worth it for 100,000 caps.(Especially when you say it will have a 50% chance of not working).People will never do this because armors and guns can be lost very easily. Post-wipe, there won't be bank interest, and [hopefully] won't be any TC glitches, so people aren't going to spend their hard-earned caps for something that can be lost so quickly.
u got a point when u say no one would invest in them becouse they would get lostBUTthe idea can be aplied for other things100K for +1 hp ( max buy of 10/20)200k for +1 ap ( capped at 5)100k for +1 dr ( cappes at 5)100K for 1 skill point capped at 10u get the ideathere are interesting ways to spend money, the point isnt to make chars OP but to give them a little edgde on battlesP.S all numbers are random just to give the big picture
Any action or inaction in a position of power will always grant you enemies
this will only make bigger the abysm between rich and poorsIM COMPLETELY DISAGREE (i come from a little poor Mexican family, so i never change of opinion about give more power in exchange of money)A better sugestion could be exchange XP for the upgrades, this way veteran players will be favoured, and they will have a advantage against new lvl21 char, and there will be more reasons to focus in only one char,and not in like-condoms alts.We need to support old players with old chars, not rich pwnzors gangs.
How are the XPs converted to better guns?Magic?Money would make technical sense because it motivates the effort of a gunsmith, pays for better materials, etc.Veteran players could perhaps have a "storyteller" quest where thay trade XP for caps- "tell their stories"/etc.Then use the caps.
if u dont like that one buy a lot of bases
You can't because of no names avaible, but really, just buy alot mercs and start kill people in guarded towns, that's fun! When mercs die, buy again and again and again, get 9 CH +MP friends, and capture guarded towns with lotsa mercs, kill everyone and laught, may be some noob will even create a topic about you! Or just create a topic in Trade section that you're buying alot dynamite for billions caps and then explode it 24/7, put dynamite into workbrenches, at bank and entrance points! Or become Mabus' follower and put 2895743985 mercs in Gecko mine and shout that everyone PKs and you're protecting mine from them! Or fill traders' buildings with mercs so noone can enter it! Surround Buster by filling his tent with mercs, block exit grid with mercs, block all entrances, make town impossible to enter by filling all hexes on map with mercs, kill FPS and make computers freeze by moving 4574389563847 mercs on the same map!Create roung wall from mercs somewhere, lure all guards there, and then close this wall with other mercs so guards will be trapped there and then start kill people in town without guards!
And maybe then devs realize (at last!!!) that mercs shouldn't be in Fonline BECAUSE THIS IS A PVP GAMEtough Ravenous make this comentary an awesome piece of inspiration for all the Slaves and Leaders in the wastes. A completely posible dream.
this game is pvp? lolthis game is far from being pvpmercs are an important culture of the fallout worldif anything they need better balacing
