Idea Death Coordinates

+1 - it would even increase fighting because you could see where the other guy at spawn is (specifically).

 

This is actually a pretty dope idea +1

 

It would be pointless on WarZ, seeing as there are plenty of landmarks on the map and are very distinguishable, not sure about WildWest though.

 

I really like the concept of the idea. But I think it could hurt backfire. I believe one main reason of your idea is to increase the chances of new players or not regulars to get raids and it sounds good because they could even stand a chance of raiding one of the big 2 (Vanta/Legacy). However, we have to take into consideration the fact that new players or the ones in process of becoming part of the player base are most likely to die in their base or on an important warp. Implementing this feature may even increase the gap between regulars and non-regulars.

Nevertheless, as I said, the concept sounds great and I would love if this idea is added but with a small change. Maybe decreasing the death coordinates range to 1k blocks outside spawn. Therefore, big teams and experienced players wouldn't be able to exploit this feature. And as Doges said it could increase fights at spawn and bring more pvp action as we were used to.

 

I've been thinking about reducing it to 512blocks (since everything built inside that area is going to get deleted each week) plus it also covers the Koth section so death messages will be shown while one is being contested.

The 24hrs grace period sounds good, considering that most of the new players don't spend more than 2 hrs a day. Furthermore, maybe 1 entire day of gameplay could be enough for a player to understand how the game mode and this feature works.

 

Good idea but the death messages actually need to be fixed first. Half of the time you can't even see them in the action bar, I would suggest making it come up in chat and you should be able to see the death messages of the people you kill.

 

/dlocation chat (Or /dloc for short)

How'd you get all the way up there...

I do like this idea, and it would certainly add to the hardcore aspect. Joke killing in bases would now have major consequences.

 

I think this would only be a good idea for pvp at spawn. Beyond that, I think it would just be an annoyance and mostly only affect the people who are unaware of it. If you die and reveal valuable coords you have plenty of time to move the loot. If it's an xp grinder or whatever, it just makes the warp useless and doesn't benefit anyone.

 

Never knew that xd.

 

/dfilter ALL then /dloc CHAT

On topic of the idea I agree with @hockeyxxxxxxxkid and @Speedcell. Would be an annoyance and perhaps backfire in way for newer players. I would prefer this idea be implemented only within 512 blocks tbh. Which would help with PvP but if it were within 512 blocks only it would probably get annoying to some. I just see more bad than good coming from the idea. Good intentions but I think it's a bad way to resolve the issue. I'd hate to accidentally die and reveal coords to a skybase or something of value and then have to go through the trouble of moving it, could even cause some to quit. Just my take on it, doesn't mean it's a bad idea.

 

If you think about it though, you could die on purpose and make people go to a trap and then kill them there or something. I like the idea because it will make it more hardcore.
