Slave, brahmins and dog sugestions

<< < (3/3)

Gunduz:
Naming slaves/mercs will be abused, just like if faction names were opened up. Using +requesthelp to ban people for such things just wastes the GMs' time and reduces their ability to respond to actual problems in the game. Selecting from a list of names isn't a bad idea, but if it were accepted, would probably be dead last on the to-do list. But I agree with choosing their dialog. You could tell them how to act, instead of telling them the exact lines. You'd choose from different styles:

Friendly : "Hello, wastelander." "How are you?"
Territorial : "You should leave." "Get out of here before I blow your brains out."
others, but I can't think right now.

This way, abuse is avoided, and it also reduces server resource consumption because there's only x amount of predetermined lines, instead of having to store every line, including similar variations.

LagMaster:
ok, but how about we name them, names are not given by players, but selected from a list, probably like the faction names

Jotisz:
Well an ingame list would be preferable then like the one with the factions. Each player could use all the name but have one critter that uses it. So we would avoid situation where a player names all the dog followers the same. (though it should be made then that players could get only those critters whose name they don't use)

"So you beat the shit out of someone, maybe kill his pals, just to rope him up, enslave him and then you expect that he likes you?

If it would be me, slaves would run away in the first moment you leave them unprotected somewhere."

well. Then Teach them there Place. and since that slave master thing seems to actually be implemented. They'll keep a Eye on Thoes Slaves and teach them their lessions while I'm gone. That is if you were that kind of slaver. And Not all the Slaves I've gotten was gained that way. rarely I save things right before their killed and then enslave them. Bringing them to a better life of meaning and use instead of... Walking aroung liveing alone and cutting out peoples eyes that pray on them.
