Maybe give the squad leader a special squad house map and like 400K gralats? A fancy one that they can make their own "hideout" wid.

I think that'd be more fun... den de squad could come over and help change things. Lit. Lit. Lit.  

Well if the hideout does ever come back as a reward, it does't need to be placed on the gmap. There could be a button on the squad's news page or an extra page for the squad where it allows players to enter the level. Sort of like a house level works. That could clear the problem with it looking different to the tileset used on the gmap. Just a suggestion.  

You guys really cant just say something and start a new reward system just like that. Should have told Zone before and gave a specific date for when the rewards were going to be changed.

Or at least change it to custom gun.

but right now it wouldn't even be smart to get a hideout. Since we are about to get a new tileset and therefore also a new map.

Assuming the hideouts can be like the ones on era, accuracy, and i believe triction, were going to use a custom tileset anyway, so it will be unique to their squad using their colours etc... So the change in tileset is irrelevant, unless you are forcing us (if hideout is 5k reward) to use the current tileset like what obs used which looks ugly.  

Well if the work involved in making a hideout takes too much time for the levels team and prevents them from working on more important parts of the server, then we could always get ex-staff or players who know how to level. Personally I have been the levels team administrator on two private playerworlds and I'm available most of the time. I'm sure there would be ex-gfx staff or players that would be able to supply graphics.

Would the hideouts have to match the new tileset or would they be able to make their own or recolour a current one?  

Are you kidding me? There's no Gang Admin to assist that and Levels Team making important things than hideout.  

It was just an observation and suggestion. I just wouldn't want to see hideouts disappear as rewards.  

Oh don't listen to them. The same type of outcry came when 1K on classic became 2K. They're just being salty.

Literally am I the only one who would prefer a gun over a hide out anyway... lmao?  

These reasons for removing it arent really that good, nor were they even a necessity as of now, like a lore? Zone never had any need for a lore, even tho it might be nice its nothing the game ever needed, and removing a hideout just to fit some "lore" is dumb because the hideout isn't required to even fit in, its one of the extraneous things made as a reward and for no other reason. None of the rewards are even intended to fit some lore, did that not even get thought through? Hats dont fit the lore or detail of the game (regarding that tileset comment) and neither does a gun skin, robot, melee or anything else that requires the slightest bit of creativity to make due to them maybe wanting a different theme or texture for it. And when yall say "we were discussing it", whos we? The other staff, who most don't even base? This shouldve been discussed with the squads who were already at 5k and almost there. And trying to say yall don't have the time is beyond bs, no ones asking yall to make it asap, levels team aren't always busy and have a lot of downtime, it could've been made with that downtime. These arguements against the hideouts are just poorly thought out ideas

I really like this idea to be honest!

You are against everything I do, sooo yeaaaaa.

Yeah, but having a med bot that never breaks down seems OP right? even if balanced, med bots will most likely be removed from bases like spring and iricia. Inferring that bots are pointless.

Not really. Minerals are so easily gotten and common. Basers know that. The med bot itself just needs to be balanced.  

Sorry, but I agree with the decision, we all know hideout is something that outlives the squad, but then again it is too big of a reward, requires great time and effort to make for a 5k prize.

Perhaps this'll motivate more squad to reach for a higher goal, and gun skin is cool:O

>inb4 le xD xDDDDDDDD WHY DO YOU CARE :^)

cuz I'm on a 5k squad with a pending reward too.

Actually no one cares if you care so..  

I understand that maybe as a 5k reward would be too low for a hideout, you don't want these to be common otherwise they start filling up the server or lose their worth. It would be more appropriate as a 10k reward as this would be less common, however the players complaining at the moment on the server would be due to being told that they would receive a hideout at 5k hours, which is why they based those hours. Accuracy only started back up less than 2 months ago (this being the time that hideouts were apparently removed), so the lack of knowledge distribution and then a sudden change doesn't help those players.
