    Hey Everyone,
    I Recently posted a thread about an idea for a new Wild West server theme, and I got some great Ideas from the community. So here is what I've come up with so far (I didn't want to grave dig my other thread, so i'm posting this new one). Please read it all and share any thoughts. :smile:
    ------
    This will be a MMORPG server, where you get to pick a class, and you then spawn in a huge old western map. There are a number of quests to complete throughout the map, and the more you do, the more you unlock. As you play, you will gain XP from completing quests, killing mobs, killing enemy players, and other things such as gambling and robbery. Each class has a special ability, and will have different types of quests to complete.

    CLASSES:
    --
    Bandit:
    Bandits are fairly deadly. They spawn with dual pistols (m9 like) and a knife,giving them a melee advantage and are very fast and strong. They are not all powerful though, they don't have very much armor, and when slightly intoxicated are fairly easy to kill.

    -Starting Weapons: Dual pistols (obviously we can't dual wield, but the gun fires 2 shots at once), Knife (gold sword)
    -Starting Armor: Bandana face mask (textured leather helmet), padded leather vest (textured leather prot 1 chest-plate), leather trousers, Cowboy Boots (textured Iron Boots)
    -Special Abilities: Bandits spawn with a flask of whiskey (textured potion) that refills every five or so minutes, when you drink it you get a speed and strength boost for a certain period of time to help with quick getaways, this also leaves you more venerable to attacks though. As you level up you can boost the time/level of the effects. As a Bandit, you can also loot a players corpse for money (only money) and you can rob banks (all depends on your level). Bandits also spawn with a lock pick, giving them the ability to open locked iron doors. Bandits can instantly tame (friendly) wolves. Outlaws (re textured skeletons) do not harm you.
    --

    Cowboy:
    Cowboy is a reliable class. There are always jobs of bringing herds of cattle from town to town, so you can make decent money,
    -Starting weapons: Bolt action rifle (like a very slow msr) and small pistol (usp-ish gun), lasso/rope (textured fishing rod), and a dull knife (wood sword)
    -Starting armor: Cowboy hat (textured gold helmet), Leather vest, Heavy duty jeans (textured gold/chain leggings), cowboy boots (textured iron boots)
    -Special Abilities: Cowboys can use their lasso to grab players/mobs and rope them closer. They spawn with chewing tobacco, that when you eat it if give you a certain amount of absorption/thorns for a certain amount of time (again as you level up you can increase time/level of effect). You can get new tobacco every 5-10 minutes. Cowboys can also instantly tame wild donkeys/mules, but take time to tame horses. Cowboys have a self regeneration of health as well, the rate of regeneration depends on how hungry you are. Cowboys receive reward for killing bandits/outlaws
    --

    Indian/Native American or Canadian:
    Indians/Native American or Canadians are very mystical. They spawn with a bow and arrow, a tomahawk, and a raven, and flash bombs. You won't need that much money, because most of the trading/marketing done in your village will use items like food/ingots/tools as a currency.
    -Starting weapons: Bow w/ 64 arrows. Throwable/melee tomahawk (throwing distance:low damage:HIGH. Melee damage= that of a stone sword) re-spawns every 10 minutes, can also be used to chop wood. Raven, re-textured ender-pearl. when you right click, a Raven will fly out and you will teleport to where it lands, taking damage, respawns every 2 minutes. 2 Flash Bombs, when thrown blinds enemey player for 2 seconds and giving them nausea for 10 seconds respawns every 2 minutes.
    -Starting armour: Cloak of Protection (textured protection 1 chain chest plate) Mohawk (textured chain helmet) moccasins of comfort (textured feather falling 3 leather boots)
    -Special abilities: Other than the Raven and flash bombs, this class can use herbs (retextured item of your choice) to become partially invisible, ghost like for 15 seconds. Mobs will not notice you at all for that period. this class can instantly tame wild horses. They can also trade with cowboys/townsfolk. Also, although you can't tame wolves, they won't attack you even if you go into their territory (unless you hit them, then your screwed).
    --

    Donator class: Lone Ranger
    Lone Rangers are the best of all worlds. They can Insta-tame horses and dogs, do bandits or cowboy quests, and they have a White cowboy hat :grinning:
    -Starting Weapons: Sawed off shotgun (medium damage, low range), trusty pistol (Deagle like pistol), Brass knuckles (re textured iron axe maybe?)
    -Starting Armor: White cowboy hat (textured diamond hat) Padded jacket (iron chest plate), leather trousers and cowboy boots (iron boots)
    -Special Abilities: Other than instantly taming horses/dogs, Lone rangers can make trades with indians, Bandits and Cowboys/townsfolk, they can raid corpses for money, and they get more money/XP for killing bandits/completing quests. This class comes with a Cuban Cigar, which when right clicked, gives player resistance for a certain amount of time (depends on level/xp. upgrade as you play) respawns every 5 minutes. Lone rangers have access to the steam train (instant travel between major towns) and the exclusive Donator town. They also get a coloured name, and a /tpa every 5 minutes, and get access to a double enderchest (if code-able)
    --
    MOBS:

    NPC Villagers: Occupy towns. Textured for each type of town. Certain villagers can be textured into indians for the villages, Bandits for the bandit caves, and townsfolk for the regular towns.

    Sheriff: Textured wither. 3 in each town, spawn in banks, prisons and just randomly in the town. They ONLY attack bandits.

    Outlaws: Re-txtured skeletons with leather caps so they don't burn, Spawn around bandit caves and randomly in the map.

    Zombies: Vanilla zombies (maybe re textured) spawn at night around the map. Spawn a lot in the mines.

    Zombie villagers: Spawn in ghost town, fast and deadly. (speed boost)

    Wolves: spawn in the forest and in the mountains. mostly hostile except to indians and bandits. only bandits and Lone Rangers can tame wolves

    Horses: spawn in plains. Only indians and Lone Rangers can insta tame them, you will need a lot of apples to tame one if you are another class.

    Mules: can be found wild in canyons and can be bought in main towns. Only cowboys can insta tame a mule. Comes with a cargo chest.

    Cows: Spawn randomly, good source of food. Herds of cows can be brought to ranchers by cowboys only for money.

    Mountain Goats: re textured sheep, spawn in herds on the mountains, make you more money than cows.
    ----

    Weapons/Tools/Armor/Special Abilities
    Each class has different types of weapons. Bandits can only use pistols, Cowboys bolt-action rifles/weak pistols and so on, so even though you cant have a different type of weapon (a cowboy can not use a bow) you can upgrade the range/damage/accuracy of your weapons as you level up and get more money. Same thing goes for melee weapons, tools, and armor. You can also upgrade the duration/power of your special ability item
    ----

    MAP
    There should be a fairly clear path/roadway that leads to other settlements/areas so players don't get easily lost. Random chests spawn around the map sometime containing small loot (depending on where you are, the map could have zones like WarZ) and once you loot them they disappear.
    -Settlements: Depending on your class, you will spawn in a tier 1 town, indian village or a robber cave. Throughout the map, there are higher tier settlements that sell better goods but are for higher levelled players. How does 4 tiers (for levels of settlements) sound?
    -Desert: A lot of the map is a sandy desert like area, this is a wild west themed server after all haha. when your in this biome you lose hunger (maybe thirst if its implemented) faster than in other biomes. Life is scarce, at night plenty outlaws and zombies spawn.
    -Plains: Ah the plains. Horses and cows spawn here. Not much danger, but very big and open, without a pathway you can get lost. Also this is far our, so bring food.
    -Forests: Very dense forests, i'm thinking there can be a winter and a summer one. Wolves spawn here, they have a territory that if you wander into you will surly be attacked.
    -Canyons: very magnificent. also dangerous. In the canyons you can find abandoned mineshafts with lots of treasure, but zombies seem to spawn like crazy here, so you can get easily overwhelmed.
    -mountains: I'm talking serious high ass mountains. You can usually find herds of mountain goats, so you can make money, but because of the goats there are always wolves. good cowboy territory
    ----
    Other
    -Casinos: You can gamble here, not sure how to implement this, but it could just be a slot machine (button that, once you pay, gives you a 1/50 chance of winning maybe)
    -Saloon/bar: everyone is welcome here. You can buy beer to restore your health (with a little nausea effect), and you can get into a bar-fight by shift-right clicking another player (fists only, if you lose you don't die, you just lose money) Also the Bartender will upgrade your special ability item here.
    -Prison: Maybe if a bandit gets killed by the sheriffs, he spawns in here for a mine-craft day (possibility of escape)
    -Sheriff's office: come here for tips/tricks
    -Blacksmith: come here to upgrade your weapons/armor
    -Banks: These have enderchests you can store your things in. Bandits can rob gold from the banks by killing the sheriff and getting into the vault in the back. Still not sure how to make robbing banks really fun though so tell me what your ideas are
    ----

    Annnd 2 1/2 hours later I'm done. And its 1 in the morning where I am -_-. If you've read this far I commend you. I think thats it, if you think i'm missing something or something should be added please let me know by replying. We cant make this a server without brainstorming together, so please share your ideas. Thank you guys on my last post for all the great ideas as well.
    Thanks,
    -Greeny

    Dude.. This idea is not original. You may or may not have known that there is a mod similar to this, and is also basically an adventure map. Hypixel's server has these. However, this has a lot of detail in it and would be very worth playing. This will also take months to set up, maybe even a year. It will be so heavily coded... @ Orange and Chap: Up for a challenge? ^.^ Some of this may be impossible due to to the fact of the coding itself or having too many errors. Good Luck with this idea. I really do not think this should be implemented to Mcbrawl servers though due to the fact of it being completely random. The idea itself is too narrow. This could be implemented into an Adventure Map server if Mcbrawl decides to make one.
    - Best Regards, Mike.

    It'd be a cool idea, but it would have to be implemented when we've finished dealing with the other servers.

    Hey man, thanks for your input. I had no idea there was a mod like this haha, but PM me the name, cause id love to check it out :wink:. This would take a huge amount of time to code no doubt, but I think It might be worth it, if Mc Brawl wanted to branch out to a different kind of server...

    I agree with Schoolkid, although the idea is very intricate, it may be a little too niche to have a devoted server.

    While I like the idea, we have to deal with other servers. Something like this would take a lot of coding to pull off.

    Some of this might be HARD to code.
    Not impossible.
    This will take a long while.

    This would take long to code, but if orange has some spare coding time then why not?

    Really really cool sounding, but copied. Would take alot of coding to do. But I like the idea.

    Haha thanks. Thats what the last years of high school do to you, everything becomes an essay xD
    :open_mouth: where is it copied from? I looked around on the forums and couldn't find anything
    Thanks man, I think the MC Brawl team makes fantastic servers, so this would be exiting to see from them

    I'm almost sure I've played something JUST like it, might not be exactly like it, I apologize I couldn't find it again either.
    I've played it on a mod or adventure map. I can't find the link :rage:
