We need MORE. Ideas for Wild West. (More content) --HOT-- --MUST READ--

I could totally create drug suggestions. :>

 

They might not be kid friendly.

 

Trust me, if I'm talking about drugs, they're probably really bad.

 

I feel like the map is big enough. I believe it's about 13k by 15k.
@Lord_Roke can correct me if I'm wrong.

I don't think we should add more things just yet. We need to wait for more bugs to be fixed.

 

There's not a ton of different activities, but rather many places and variations of the same activities. What makes Wild West still playable is all of the different players and teams creating unique situations of strategy and showdown.

As for the map, correct me if I'm wrong, but making the map much larger would make the game much more susceptible to huge lag spikes as there would be a lot more chunks to be loaded. There's already a lag problem as-is.

And for additional drugs, peyote cactus that could be found rarely and randomly throughout the map would be awesome, especially since it's actually native here to Texas (southwestern). To make it kid-friendly, it would have to be called "magic cactus" or something of the like.

 

This is an interesting idea, maybe horses could spawn around certain miscellaneous locations.

The map is already giantic, so far you probably only saw about 1/10 of the entire map.

It is 18k by 12k, however, the playable area is smaller because of barrier walls.

Huge amounts of particles will cause tons of lag as you can see with the smoke grenades on Minestrike, not viable.

The problem with this is that once they are found, everyone knows where they are and they are no longer a challenge. I'm also strictly opposed to a hidden town with cheaper prices.

Could you elaborate how this is supposed to work?

This isn't really necessary, a purely cosmetic addition.

You say the game gets boring, but adding more drugs wouldn't really add any kind of new aspect. Instead we should add different ways of money-making.

This is an interesting idea because it is a new way of money-making. Again the problem would be that once these patches are found it isn't much of a challenge anymore.

 

Perhaps the hidden things could be moved around randomly, so it isn't in one set location?

 

I don't think it's possible to have bases that appear in certain locations then disappear without constantly having to restart the server and replace in a new map file. But then again, I'm no coder.

 

Wouldn't this require every player to download the horse carriage mod?

Regardless, I think the fast horses are already fast enough for getting around. The combination of trains and horses makes everything very accessible relatively quickly. Carriages don't seem necessary.

 

I think he means plugin, not mod - (I'm sure some mods do it too)

 

The thing is, plugins cost money, or the staff will have to pay the coders if they want this. It's not smart to waste time/money on something that trivial.
