Title: Reputation, prostitution and other crazy stories
Post by: Nyan on January 29, 2010, 12:35:56 am
There should be an ability to regain reputation in cities for doing some jobs like collecting litter (every junk, metal part, etc = 10 rep) or corrupting people (every 1000caps = 100 rep)

There should be an ingame prostitution allowing players to gain some caps due to npc interaction, medium charisma needed.

i support, but 100 rep = min 100k-200k (real corruption), 1000 caps small price

100k is way too much for average players

100k caps for 100 reputation!? Are you kidding me? Maybe 5-10k/100 rep, but 100k!?

Only players in crazy big gangs earning money for town control would ever be able to play 100k/100 rep, that is the most idiotic idea I've ever heard. What if you accidentally shoot a guy in the city when you're meant to shoot the thief - this would be a disaster. What if you accidently forget to put your weapon away quick enough when encountering a caravan or at Junktown - this would be a disaster. It is so much cheaper to just wait 10 days for 100 reputation, nobody in their right mind would pay 100k for 100 rep. You think it should be "hardcore" but you are going way overboard on the idea.

Did you even read what I said? I pointed out several cases of times when you accidentally screw up and you still call it CORRUPTION! You are looking at it in completely the wrong way.

Look:

One-hundred thousand caps = One accidental shot to someone other than the thief you were aiming for
One-hundred thousand caps = Forgot to put weapon away at Junktown gate
One-hundred thousand caps = Stole some 10mm JHP from a guy
One-hundred thousand caps = Game lagged and you couldn't put weapon away in caravan encounter in time
One-hundred thousand caps = Forgot to put weapon/drugs away before entering the main part of NCR
One-hundred thousand caps = Accidentally blocked a door due to lag

If all these things were to be stacked, think about how much money that is going to cost.
What is more important: 130k base, or 130 reputation?

Hurr, then what the hell is the point in this suggestion if you want it to cost 100k caps (which nobody will pay) in the first place?

I'm up for this suggestion as long as it's 1-10k (10k max.) and not some overpriced bullshit.

duorden, stop annoying poor kid  ;)
But this system will be abused anyway. There should be other way. Like quest for test period. If he fails he wount have chance to restart his karma.
Well it will be abused too. No idea then.

inb4 dev appears and tells you it's not karma, then disappears with no actual answers

10k for 100 rep and you can't do it to often. Because if you are actually the most important person in the wasteland and have great crimson guild on your commands you could just kill people in towns everyday and just pay money ad hoc. On the other hand for other players that play solo it would be quite a challenge to earn those 10k, and just like Reco said, every stupid mistake you do costs you those 10k so let's try to think about something not too exploitable and playable at the same time.

People, the daily reputation change is 100, not 10...

Prostitution would have to include some prostitution cooldown, to stop the biggest whores from making fortunes or wagonfuls of Jet.

I'd so love to see the prostitution cooldown in the pipboy :3 also yeah, ofcourse. You'd also need to use some condoms not get some bad stuff that would lower your END, STR and AGI for like a week or so.

And daily rep change is 10. I'd be unstoppable with 100rep a day.

I haven't checked it myself in the game, but look at the latest changelog again.
Did I say 10? Lies! It was meant to be 100, no idea what I smoked when writing that. Will fix it right away (will work after next restart).

Why is it people pull random astronomical numbers out of their asses whenever it comes to the price of things. ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS!
