    Players should have the chance to interact, show off loot and even store loot without having to worry about the combat.

    A lounge should be added somewhere in the map that is protected by non-PvP zoning, similar to a spawn in war or battle royale.

    In this small zone, players can type /pv 1, /pv 2, etc. to access small private vaults where they can store loot in. These are different from enderchests as they are away from combat and can help house loot that players cannot store in echests or alts.

    Most people would say that there's more than enough room in echests, but almost every player in warz uses alts to store loot for the extra room. The loot adds up quickly, believe it or not.

    So every player (non-donor or donor) can access the lounge (maybe /warp lounge), and the warping time takes 1 minute. This is to prevent players from abusing /warp lounge in the middle of the fight just to escape to safety. The lounge should be something that players can access after a long fight, or when they just want to hop on and chat; not having to worry about fighting others.

    Each vault can have a price tag, maybe $3.50-$5.00 for the extra vault? The commands can only be typed within the vault zone. /pv # will not work outside of the lounge.

    The lounge can also be a space where players on the leaderboard will be glorified. Top elo, top kills, even top deaths can be something portrayed on the walls using the player's head and a sign similar to warz 19/20 (whatever it was) to display their achievements.

    Finally, inside the lounge can be a shooting range where players can try out weapons on zombies. Unfortunately this can get confusing since players in the lounge can have loot to begin with, so there may be conflict when choosing a weapon or participating in the shooting range.

    I think warz is in need of some zones where players can just log on and relax like survival pvp; of course the main focus of the game is the pvp/raiding, but there is just a small area where players can be safe from it all.

    What would be the best location for the lounge? A separate warp disconnected from the PvP map, or an actual new area somewhere on the map? From what you said about the /warp lounge stuff, I assume the former, but I want to be sure.

    Other than that, I think the idea itself is cool, especially because there technically is no rest on the map; as soon as you log in, you're risking death at all times. This would reduce difficulty for newer players and just allow for a more casual experience.

    The /warp thing may need to be refined in the future. I think a minute warp time is enough, but we'll never know until it's in the game

    sounds like an interesting idea for taking a break from fighting

    One question, how would you leave the lounge? Other than that I think this is a fantastic idea.

    There could be several ways out, for example a couple of tunnels leading outside, that obviously *could* be camped but if we make enough ways out, that shouldn't be that big of an issue

    The safe zone or lounge could be looking something like this : ISS_SZ_Overview.jpg maxresdefault.jpg
    (obviously our people wouldn't die inside, there was a hacker that could kill people inside xD
    But well it could be designed something around that since the whole game mode itself is more designed around Infestation nowdays (fast paced PvP, instant healings, fast shooting etc etc)

    Would you be allowed to drop items in the lounge?

    It'd just be a pain and people would find ways to get out of fights through it, /logout is your safe place on warz and that's how it should stay.

    I don't play WarZ so I was wondering if it would be too OP to share items, to alts for example, in a safe spot. And it wasn't mentioned in the thread

    Having them on a map is a good thing but I fully agree that there should be no command for it, maybe we can adjust it somehow or find a compromise to add it since it'd bring in some new wind to the already pretty repetitive game mode :stuck_out_tongue:

    I feel as though the best option would be to have a separate spot that's normally inaccessible by just running to it. So perhaps the warp can be disconnected from the PvP map to eliminate any abuse such as players just running in and out during a fight.
    Good question actually, didn't really have a thought about that. If possible, maybe if you /leave or click a sign in the lounge it could tp you back to where you /warp lounge'd in the first place. There is one problem with this though. If you are camping someone out and their friend checks out their logout spot and clears it, giving the logger the green light to log back in, you could just leave the lounge and be right back to the spot they logged.
    I kinda butchered that explanation, but you get the point. Other than that, I really don't know. I guess we can all discuss ideas here on that.
    But if it takes a minute to warp, how would that be getting out of a fight? 10 seconds already feels so long when you're in the middle of a fight and there's no way a player won't be interrupted from time to time from this. Or...
    I guess this makes sense, if there's a set location on the map which goes back to carson's post. Maybe we could indeed have a location but it has to involve something like...
    with enough ways out, it seems like a good idea, although like every idea we have to see how it pans out in action. I still feel like people will camp it out but a large tunnel system like underground on new map could help ward off campers.

    Trust me when I say this that the Lounge is just straight up un-needed and will cause Issues that you would definitely complain about if it were to be put in. There is just absolutely no point in adding it what so ever.

    There will always be a way to make a non pvp zone give you the advantage over the fight and I don't care how they do it.

    If the non-PvP zone was to be placed on the map itself, there is a certain zombie-apocalypse server that has a feature where signs placed inside the safezone will tp you a little farther away from the actual wall/edge of the safezone. If something like it was implemented, it would allow for people to still enjoy a less stressful area while also not having to worry about people camping the exits.

    EDIT: If this undermines the realistic aspect, then there could definitely just be multiple ways to leave like gates and also tunnels. The issue that might come with the picture Snax showed is that all of the exits could be covered by one team because it doesn't take too long to get from one side of it to the other. If some exits let you out right at the edge, while others took you a bit farther out (tunnels, maybe even bridges or something similar), it would make it much more difficult to camp the safe zone.

    so you're asking them to add safezones from mining dead
    k

    could work, ./pv isn't necessary. just add echests in the safe zone that everybody can access (donors get more space in their ec, non-donors get less)

    trust ME when I say warz needs all the updates it can get. unless you like moderating a 20 player base server

    I would love to see something like a safe zone added in the dead center of the map, or something similar. They would have to find a way to balance it out so people cant just camp it too.

    Maybe after you jump out you have 10 seconds of grace? And to get in you have to type /safezone or /spawn and in 10 seconds you teleport, if youre within say 50 block range of the spawn? Idk. =)

    Putting an alt in the safe zone and teleporting to it to get out of a fight. Even if this was patched you could push your players hitbox off the edge of the safe zone by 1 block and then tp to your alt.

    Thought of this way to abuse the non pvp zone in 5 minutes and trust me there would be a lot more that people would find and then use.

    What if /tpa is disabled (both accepting tpa's and sending them) in maybe like a 500 block radius of the lounge?
