Spars, Meele spar
 

Hey guys, I would like to first start off by saying there's way to many spar places. First, you got under ground spars with extra levels, Second the spar complex has 3 rooms plus a extra 4 rooms, Third there's even more rooms at south ridge. Most of the spars are just unnecessary. Like 100?300?25? Hps. Instead all these Atleast have a meele spar or stop expanding on spars and create a better room rather than a plane box, (maybe with walls) Try to work on meele spars or replace the many unnecessary spar rooms, -Ice

um... melee spar.....
no this is not clasicc -.-"

This would be a new and interesting thing for era. The people want new stuff, not more spars.

You say people want new stuff, and not more spars yet you ask for another one?

Exactly, new stuff as in a new melee spar, and not just the same old spar.

Make a star shaped spar xD

We dont need this,just go to classic.

Hey Ice. Welcome to the forums.

Yah, I guess this could be added but it would be a lot similar to Classic. However, the speed spars were implied with the inspiration of Era PC so I fail to see why something from Classic can't be looked into by a staff. Era is turning into Classic anyways due to the vast amounts of hats being released when it's a 'gun' server anyways. :)

Your only the 500th person to suggest melle spars...

Having a spar arena that doesn't allow guns wouldn't be too difficult.
I personally would never use it, but I don't see a problem with it.

As for there being "too many spar arenas", I have to disagree.
It's for convenience, and accommodate the large playerbase.

I would have to disagree. There being so many spar arenas give a lot of people ample times and places to boost. One of them being the beach spar as no one really knows of it.

I personally feel the only spars needed are complex/magus and underground (minus the elevator rooms as those aren't used besides for boosting)

Or just has one big building that has 10 spar rooms. Each room can be different
-streak spar
-fast spar
-practice spar
-100 hp spar
-hp+fast spar
-melee only spar
etc etc

This would go nicely with a one building that has all the repairs for guns as well.

ya itshud replace a spar tht is used the least

Thanks, I now have cancer from reading that and your name.

Ez Ill do it meaning I will level it but I'll try and script it@ Developers and LAT's

There is enough spars already and what's the point of having walls and stuff inside a spar? I thought spar was skill and dodging not hiding?

go to classic if you want melee spars.

Making a spar box with walls, doesnt make it a spar anymore in my opinion. That seems more like a [b][u]pro battle field.

When I was Boss of Black Holst back in 2004, and somebody asked me if they could join, if I was unaware of their PK Abilities, I'd give them the choice to either fight me in a spar arena, fight me inside Black Holst base, or fight me in Black Holst's front yard.

I preferred to fight them in the base or front yard, because that tested their abilities and showcased their usefulness in an actual raid or defend scenario. Spars were acceptable too, because lame guns like the Souizen and BAR didn't exist.

If they could hit me more than three times, they were in.
80% of them failed.

If I were to seriously run a gang on iEra, I would probably omit open spars as way of entry, unless they used a gun that has merit. I don't recruit people that require handicaps.

Do it Meph! Make an epic spar gang please please please!!

That is a good way to show abilities but I personally would rather see someone in a base or somewhere with obstacles so it's possible to see how they react with what's around them such as using cover. Spar shows raw skill though.

As I stated, my preference was testing them in a level with obstacles:
Sparring in an open arena, especially in the Era we have now where spamming reigns supreme, is a fraudulent way of exhibiting one's abilities.
