Faction 's OUTPOST” strikes back

<< < (6/7) > >>

Sius:
Well this is a really nice idea but I liked the original one better. Anyway I'm afraid that this could easily slip into stereotype such as current TC did. What I think we need is something, that will force players to meet together at same time and fight against each other in order to maintain their faction power or increase it. I mean this is the first idea that would create natural friends and natural enemies ingame and thats good and very needed thing. WoW has its Alliance+Horde and FOnline definitely needs some ingame lore conflict that will give players reason to choose sides, support friends and eliminate enemies. But if it will be as "simple" as this seems to me so far, then we will have just another way how to beat the shit out of each other.

I'm looking for something more than few random fights where winner takes all. I think this suggestion is a good place where to test something like long term battles where one loose or 6-7 hours without players keeping an eye on things would not be such a big deal. Simply if it comes as another "24/7 defense or be prepared to loose", then it would not bring that much. But if you guys come with some ideas how to make attack/defense truly unique such as long term siege or "infiltration-corruption-destruction" chain or something like that, then this could bring some fun. Also this could be perfect place how to introduce "battlegrounds" into the game as a part of attack/defense system of these faction outposts. But as I said if it comes as another TC only in different cloak then "work>gain".

Zak Blayde:
This suggestion would get FOnline to a real persistent world game.

Today, players take town. The next morning, another gang get it back. It's the same thing everyday, again, and again (and again and again and again (cf. The horribly slow murderer with the very inefficient weapon)).
It's like nonsense.

With this new system, everyone would have a real feel of who rules the land (wich gang, wich "order"). And with this, there will be more people that involve in this struggle for power, the land will seems more "alive"...

I totally approve, this is a "must be" for FOnline.

Gatling:
I like this idea, except for the usual "Enclave, BoS" wants.

I'm fairly against those being used as factions to join, at least until there is something a little more epic (read: not deathmatch related) than we have at present.  They are some of the superpowers, and should be treated as such.  People wandering in to join seems wrong. 

With that said, there is now a gap of "Then who?" Well there were several large places besides those, that could want to expand like this.  Frisco Communists, Vault City, Hub (No one said that they had to be happy to be a part of NCR, the outposts a first step to proposed secession?  :D ), why not even Gecko or (preferably) Necropolis/Gecko alliance outpost, and the already mentioned NCR.

Nikey646:
Even tho this is very old (first page old), most comments praise this...

so why not bring it back up to the top to be thought about again :P

come on Devs, we all want this to happen, so please if you got spare time after the 3D models can you make this 1 happen :P

Dude 3d models are not happening without 3d modelers and afaik devs don't have anybody for that job. Just take a look at weapon models. Very promising at the beginning but now its dead as Radscorpion in "Radscorpion and NCR rangers" encounter.
But my point is to wait for what this months update (I hope it will come this month) brings us and then we will see.
