Weird idea of making Disco a lil more realistic

[Stone21]

Hey, I guess you want to end up playing with an average of 10 players on this server.
Most idiotic idea I could've seen on this forum.
Like ammunition and pirate demands aren't already too expensive...suuure let's take every single coin from the player so he can play a "realistic" arcade game.
Did the real life economy crisis got into your head so badly? I feel for you.
FL in the first place wasn't made to be a realistic game. Go with your bright ideas elsewhere or keep them for yourself.

Elite Dangerous does this, I think.

Just go play that instead if you want more death penalties. Not sure why there is so much drama going on about this.

Because you dont know that Vanilla Freelancer actually has the death penalty option? It's not like we are trying to involve something totaly new into the game. The game itself has it.

I like your initial idea.

But i have another idae;

You see a lot of times that some player factions are stronger then others.
So like RM is almost always winning from LN(S) (at least in the past) (sorry guys).

But then the development should be that the winning factions should gain more terretory.
Like Rheinland getting Bering, or Minnesota or whatever.
Or same in Omicrons if Hessians or Corsairs win most fights.

That would be real fun and kind of interactive, i guess that would get it going.

Yeah srsly, like if official factions would've such an option, it'd be awesome

Spoiler

Actually Crossfire mod has this for its official clans, they can conquer systems, but only officials.

Mad? Definitly mad. Here i have something for you:

Hell yes, we deffinately need a way to send n00bs, newbs and all sorts of undesired by some players to oblivion, not to mention reducing overall willingness of entire playerbase (with few pvp gifted individuals as an exception) to actually fly farther than 5k from their planet/static battleship. GG, please continue. Sarcasm aside, are you drunk?

This.

There are already enough people who do anything in order to not lose a fight. This will just make people more dire, bitter and would further discourage people from playing here. (From both ends, really).

Discovery shieldrun 24/7

No.

No no no no.

Nooooooooooooo.

This kills the Discovery.

We are already paying more than half a million to just replenish mines and CDs on death. Add some missiles and/or torpedoes and it gets even higher.

The funny thing is flying a battleship costs about as much as flying a bomber ...

AMAGAD AMAGAD, HOLY HELL, NOOOONONONO FINAL NAIIIIIL!!!!

I NEED TO TRADE 2 MINUTES MORE PER DEATH, HELL NO

FINAL NAIL, OMG!

Seriously, what the hell is wrong with you people? This isn't to discourage PvP, it is to encourage trading. Making money is already god damn easy. It's only rough at the beggining, so for new guys i'd say civvy shuttle and freighter are to be excempt from this kind of fee. Result: People can trade in a few stuff without having to lose cash when blown up.

I understand what you are saying and its actually "realistic" but you have to consider situations like this -

"I got 500 millions, I buy a BS for 480-490 million, I got 10 million with me just.

If you are intelligent enough to leave yourself only with 10 millions after cap purchase, oh well...

This'll only amplify the "I don't wanna die!" aspect of playing this game.

And it'll piss off Pancakes again, too.

How about no.

I barely run on the credits I have as it is.

IDONTWANNATRADEEEE, ITKILLSDISCOOOOO

In real life...

In real life you pay full price for repairs of your car if trashed/crashed, partial if you paid for insurance prior to the crash.

No, I don't want to loose more cash.

NONONO, IDONTWANNATRADEANDBEACTIVEEEEE

No, no realism of any kind please.

ACTIVITYKILLSDISCOOOOO!!!

Like a bunch of crybabies, seriously. Crying like it couldn't be developed in a way not to be a deterrent for PvP and still be a money sink at the same time.

Want realism?
Punch yourself in the face every time your ship 'splodes.

I'm being facetious of course, but there are people who prefer a quiet trade run and lots of RP to a fight - lots of them.
This doesn't seem to be a benefit to portions of the community who do not like to PvP, much more of a punishment.
And don't tell me "space is dangerous", if we can't make room in this mod for multiple types of people and players, we're doomed as a server.

I don't see EvE having a problem with that and there are tons of players there. Also, back in my time when we played on Vanilla FL servers, there was this penalty thing too, but it didn't decrease the amount of players? So what's your point?

Stop playing on Discovery of Discovery, Snake.

If the money portion thing is found, prepare for slaughters. There will be a lot of rule breaking for this 'small' portion of money you're talking about. newbies will start to shoot everyone in their sight.

So, that's a no from me.

The last time I played on Discovery of Discovery was like 6 months ago :/

Yeah well, I actually grave digged this thread to see new ideas though, not to complain about my old ideas I had back then xd

1st EVE is totally a different kind of game.
2nd. "Back in your time?" In 2003 ~ 2004 the game launched and was very known around that time. So, many players were giving it a try or even playing it because it was the "trend" at that time. You don't compare the year when FL was launched with 2014.
Your whole paragraph makes no sense. It's like wondering why DOOM game series doesn't have the same amount of players nowadays comparing to 1995.

[Sir_Now]

New ideas are always fun to read, so as far as im concerned, keep them comming.
