Idea for The Wipe - Permadeath

(1/4) > >>

wladimiiir:
I have got a cool idea, where everyone can learn a bit of psychology ;D
This is my first wipe so I do not know if this has happened before, but let`s hear it  8)

What about making characters to have replication 172800 seconds (=2 days) so every death would be terminal  :P

I would like to know how people would change their actions  ;)

*Hysterical mad laughter*

Hell i'd sure like to see that!

The Lost Children:
Love it

RavenousRat:
Permadeath is a nice feature for co-operative completion of Fallout1/2 based on FOnline engine, so many players can play at the same time and it'll be harder to complete game because of permadeath, also it opens RP abilities and just adequate gameplay, no stupid rushes, suicidal actions, etc. Current FOnline, is MMO, permadeath will just make people grind more, you just raise your level by killing mobs and mindless NPCs, you don't have chain quests and main story-line quest, leveling happening in random encounters, it's just Quake/Unreal Tournament type gameplay, so there's no reason for permadeath.
Of course 2 days replication time isn't permadeath, it'll only raise number of alts, so you'll need to relog on another one while previous is dead. What for?

I believe it's idea for now (pre-wipe madness)

Some people have 10+ PvP characters so it's not really permadeath for them.
