black market
 

Why cant iera have a black market? This is where you could buy "illegal items" such as narcotics. It would tie into the game nicely since this is about gangsters n stuff. However it needs its own seperate currency system. Readin snks thread about gang pk points. Why cant we have this for a individual? So the "black market" currency should be by pks.

Heres my system of how it would work.
100kills=1pk point or pkp

Also i thought of a few ideas on what items too add in the shop.
Needle, insulin, guns (duh), cars with special features, furniture, hats, bodies, and melees, and more.

Item descriptons.

Dart gun. 10pkp
Shoots darts dealing 5 damage

Types of darts (all require dart gun) 1pkp for 100, 1pkp for 50 black deaths. Note; if victim eats while poision by poision or black death they will lose the amount of hp og that item restores. Exp, hotdog heals 15. When poisioned loose 15 hp. Med packs will not heal nor make victim lose hp.

Poision
Poisions victim draining 5hp every 5 seconds for 30 seconds.

Lazy poision.
Slows victim down for 20 seconds.

Confusion poision
Inverts victims controlls for 10 seconds.

Black death.
Poision draining 5 hp every 5seconds for 30 seconds and slowing victim down for 7 seconds

Needle, 5pkp
Used to inject insuline into yourself

* = cannot be used if poisioned

Insuline types x100 for 1pkp. Ultra is 50 for 1pkp all must have needle to use

Adrenaline*
Regenerates 5hp every 5 seconds for 25 seconds (25hp)

Strength*
2 damage bonus to melees for 20 seconds

Pain killer
+10 hp and can be used while poisened.

Ultra
Heals user 5hp every 5 seconds for 35 seconds and gets rid of ANY poision. Instantly

Bodies/hats These cannot and WILL not be any normal bodies/hats. These have a special abilities

Flame suit 13 pkp
Protects against flames, can take damage from explosions

Flak helmet 7pkp
Absorbs 15% of explosive damage

Flack body. 10pkp
Protects 35% against explosives

Anti-dart vest 18pkp
Protects against darts not bullets

Guns (other than dart gun)

44magnum 100pkp
6shots and very low freeze, 8damage

MP7 1pkp
Spam ahoy! 4damage wide spread, clip of 16 fast rate of fire, no freeze and medium reloads

M320 10pkp
Grenade launcher. Shoots frag grenades 3X farther, go over walls, and you can choose between 1.5x, 2x, and 3x more distance than throwing a frag.

Mortar 40pkp
Cannot move. Place in one spot. Choose location for it too hit and once used it has a large explosion. Fires 1 shot every 10 seconds. Takes 3 seconds to set up and shoot.

Melees
Riot shield 50pkp.
Melee used alone blocking 100% of bullets and melees if it hits the shield. However it can not block explosions. 3damage and 100% knockback, slow melee attacks.

Ninja sword. 60pkp.
A super sharp sword dealing 10damage, slow attacks and can block bullets when swinged. Cannot block explosives.

Melees like everyother melee in game..

Furniture.
Poision brewing station. 1pkp. Allows user to brew poisions using mushrooms.
3Yellow = 5 poision
3purple = 1 black death
3 red = 5 lazy poision
3 normal = 5 confusion poision

Dart forger. Allows users to make darts to poision darts.

1iron and 1copper = 10darts

Other
Greese 5pkp x1
Makes semi automatic guns shoot faster

Anti-rust oil 1pkp x1
Restores any weapon from damaged and rusted to good shape for 14 days

*update*

Nice ideas, but if you were to say any drugs ex. Weed, herion or ecstacy, that would rather not be a nice idea because iEra is rated 9+

I think the guns are too low. I think 1 pkp should be 1000 kills, and then, i think that the MP7 should be 15pkp, 44. Magnum is 75, etc. Also, if you get pkp based on your current stats, that would be the only way i would like it. :p Sorry for being picky but i think this would help the idea be put into the game. This does sound pretty cool though, +rep.

*era in the future*
App description:
Enter the world of era, a fun MMO with a black market, drugs, and sex. Become a cop or a gangster and fight to become era legion!
Rated M

o_O

we have all this except black market and drugs

Hell no. No one gets pkp for current stats. Everyone would have everything then @-@

Then era would be off the appstore.

Also we could make it more kid friendly like adrenaline = energy drinks
WERE KEEPING THE DARTS THOUGH

There is 17+ games on the AppStore
Grand theft auto for example.

No if theres any real drug names its automaticaly a 18+ game = banned

And the actual drugs themself i forgot to mention

God dammit. Also the use of them too

Man you put effort into this. I like the idea for the most part. To prevent drug concern, the drugs can easily be replaced with something else. The dart gun seems fine though along with the ammunition.

Pretty cool ideas man.

Modded guns maybe?

Say,shoot faster and such?

Edit: I wish Era was rated M..

ah yes let me make a edit too this real quick, i forgot some things

True, but there are more players at the ages of 14-18 sometimes older. So, that wouldn't effect 9 years olds. But it wouldn't look good on iEra. Your examples, if they were to add that, then it would be more of promoting those illegal drugs then just "tying the theme in"

cocaine

PK points seem unfair for newer members as they wouldn't be able to get anything decent. I like the idea of a black market but maybe have it so you can sell certain things there and buy things.

Yo, let me get some of that sugar cane. I've got an urge to be bouncing off the walls.

*facepalm* i forgot that too

But if you think anout it. No it dosent. Noobs can get 100 with a free sword dealing 7dmg. Or buy a ak47 for 1500. Also thats why its only 100points=1pkp. I thought this through 100 kills only takes me if im having a good day 10 minutes. But i used my ipad acc i got 100kills in a hour with a handgun. So no its really not unfair at all. Its resonable.

Hmmm check out my minecraft world on the 360. I got a sugar came farm that produces 12,000 sugar canes when all sugar canes hit max growth. Only thing is that it takes 30 minutes to harvest all dat

I've been playing rated M games since I was like 5 and it hasn't negatively effected me ever.

Have you even played Gangstar: Rio? It has everything from weed to angel dust yet it's rated 12+... Still don't understand how this gets rated 12+ but the actually much milder GTA3 gets a 17+...

this thread got derailed fast lmao.

Oh, just noticed....

The poison darts are overpowered. One shot means in most cases the target is as good as dead.

Tsk tsk thats why i thought of ultra and pain killers to give a chance of survival.

And its poision. It would be underpowered if it wasnt a one "hit" kill.

I didn't know Era had Type 1 Diabetes.

They don't have diabetes.

Well theres plenty of fat people. One of em otta have diabbities

Great ideas anyway

Also thats why i thought of the anti dart vest which makes darts useless against you.

The only thing that are OP is the mp7 and maybe the mortar.

Naw. You'll get people that will have a bar and increase it's speed further. That was just an example, but Era's better without it.

I see what your saying but also then it's too easy for people to get good stuff? I don't really think theres a good way to get the balance right of not too cheap but not too hard to get.

depends on the character, because i know a guy in my ancient hockey team who was like 12 and were insulting everybody and only talking about CoD.

no, semi auto guns only such as handguns, m4, acr, etc

no shotguns since those are pump action

UPDATE
 

i get alot of time to think in ac lab, to pass the time i think about items possible heres some more,

Vehicles

Truck with turret 80pkp
a car with a 360 turret dealing 10 damage and is fast shooting,

Boats 10pkp
like a car but can be used on water

Fishing rods 1pkp
used to go fishing. Raw fish = 10HP heal cooked = 20HP heal

Furniture (all 1pkp)

Grill

PK areas

ext mags 3pkp
increases all guns clip by 4 if clip size under 17 (except for a few weapons)

Neo ext mag 30pkp (yes theres a reason this is a lot)
increase neo mag by 3

AP7 ext mags 5pkp
increase ap7 mags by 3 making clip 9 for single and 18 for dual

ACR ext mags 5pkp
increse acr clip by 10 (5 rounds so 15 size clip)

Lexel ext mags 5pkp
increase lexel clip by 20 (making a 42 clip so 22 rounds)

handgun ext mag 1pkp
increase handgun clip size by 2, 10 single 20 dual

Shotguns cannot have extedended mags*


Guns
Devasator 150pkp

Teir gas launcher 40pkp
launches teir gas that deals 3 dmg per second and slows victim down when in it

Tazer gun 10pkp
5damage, long reload, and freezes victim for 3 seconds

Bodies
camo suit 10pkp

Other

electronic grenade 1pkp x100

disables anything that has to do with electricity(tazers, robots etc)

Security camera 20pkp
can be used anywhere and user looks at it and a picture pops up of that area. only 5hp. buy once, 15 seconds recharge

F.A.P (flag attacking personel) bot 70pkp
equiped with a tazer, like a morph in classic but player dosn't morph. INstead a bot is deployed, it can enter and leave different rooms. it has 25hp dosen't count as PK's or deaths. Also player must be in that building to use the bot in that building.


TNT 1pkp X10
TNT when used in mines, TNT creates 5rocks.



GRAALETS!!!!!!!!!!!!
PKP pooints can be used to exchange for graalets
system 1pk = 1 dolla so

1000$ = 10pkp, or 1000 kills
3000$ = 30pkp, or 3000 kills
10,000$ = 100pkp or 10,000 kills

The furniture for designating pk areas in houses and making respawns look cool. And the security camera... I like the security camera, but I really can't put my finger on why exactly.

hide it to watch the outside of a base to see if theres a raid or people going into the base

Ideas I like:
1.) pk furniture in houses. Cool. What if the furniture was a pk sign?

2.) Camo Suit. Good idea, but I'd rather see it as an EC morph/hat where you can turn into a barrel, box or an ammo box.

3.) Security Camera. Cool I suppose.

I understand about the other stuff, but it's either not needed or has been ignored by staff in the past.

Good idea

Thanks

I like the ideas.
