Ideas (Again)
About a year or two ago I made a thread that consisted of many ideas that I had thought of. Many of those ideas were added however I feel the others would still make good improvements Link to OP: http://www.graalians.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1794 Quests or Missions: 1) Bank Robbery: The bank is kind of a desolate location. Have a mission guy (similar to the ones that instruct you to drive people around) tell you to get a group of 2-3 friends and shoot down NPC's with guns. To have it organized, have the mission guy give you a tag set just for event (kind of like the red/blue team tags) and with that tag you can recruit friends temporarily to that gang to help you with the mission. The NPC's should be all equipped with either guns or gas to make it more challenging, and dressed as cops for the sake of the gangster theme. The objective is to reach the safe alive, hold down the safe as you "collect the money" (sort of like king of the hill maybe?) then make your way back to the entrance. 2) Police Chase: I think this would be a fun thing to have in SouthRidge seeing as it is barely used and it has the jail there. In the jail there should be a mission guy (like the one stated above) but your mission is to pick up a guy and escape the cops in a car chase. In fact this can be a sentimental part 2 of the Bank Robbery idea where you play the get away driver after your men steal the loot. I know having like 50 players doing the cop car chase at once would create massive lag if it were to take place on the normal map, so maybe there should be a separate place all together to do this mission. Ideas: 3) Racing: I always see people at the bridge challenging people to a race, so why not make a race track? Also, make the cars have varying speeds, handling and acceleration. Possibly even do a Go-Kart thing in which you can rent out a Go-Kart and race at the speedway. I have seen some Go-Karts made for era already so I am not sure if this is already in production or not. 4) Hunter: I have created this event myself while I was entertaining my gang. I would tell everyone that once I went off tag, the first person to kill me would get shells or a prize of some sort. Naturally this cannot just be made into an event unless you have a NPC run around and the first person to kill it wins, so i was thinking you should get paid for ending peoples streaks. Kind of like a bounty hunter. The higher the streak the more money you get. This will make streaking a lot more challenging and fun with people chasing after you. 5) Capture the Flag(CTF): Self explanatory. (in process) 6) Food Market: Sell some food! Nachos, Slurpee's, Corn dogs, Doughnuts, ANYTHING! 7) Pets: Lol. I don't know why but this seems like a good idea to me. Make an animal shelter and you can buy a snake, dog, cat or whatever. It is like a furniture item and it roams around your house or in whatever room you put it in. You have to buy it food and stuff or else it dies and take it outside to go potty. You should also be able to do mini games with your pets like fetch or just mess around with it xD 8) Shooting Range: A little try before you buy for guns. Here is the idea. There is a shooting gallery or range, and basically you can choose any gun of you choice and you can only use the gun in this selected area or building. There could be fake targets in which you can shoot to test out the gun. This will enable players to see what the gun actually does instead of buying it and being saddened with what they got. 9)An underwater world. This may sound strange but bear with me. In the underwater world, it would have a series of shops with hats that are like snorkels, goggles and other swimming stuff. Also a furniture shop with beach furniture and maybe even (this is random) an underwater gun. Now the underwater gun is going somewhere. I also propose an underwater base > this would give people more reason to buy the flippers and a new exciting base to take. would also bring use to the underwater gun. This is a bit far-fetched but I'd like to see more of a reason to dive underwater than just to get a jump rope. 10)With the current guns getting stronger and more unbalanced, I think it is time to make a HP boost and give all players 75-100 HP. This can make room for stronger guns and more room to balance those that exist. 11)Make use of world chat. Host hide and seek giving the clue in it. Host trivia in it. Do something with it. It's dead x-x 12)Story mode of a cop or gangster? Seasonal Ideas: Winter: -Snowballs. If you hit someone with one it makes them slower, kind of like the slow gas and water balloons mixed. -Snowball Fight event. If you get hit you're out. last man in wins. -Snow blaster: New gun that shoots snow. Kind of like the water gun. (I could make *wink wink*) Fall: -Halloween Costume Contest: Players submit a shield, head and body of their own creation that goes together and other players vote on which one looks the coolest or more scary. Spring: -Flowers sell for more at the shop. Summer: -Shells sell for more at the shop. ~Suggestions From Other Players I Found Cool~ Froggy Krueger: As we all know, gangsters love flowers. Therefore, instead of running drugs from say, gangster zone to that tunnel thing on the bottom of southridge, they run bushels of flowers (could tie in to snks bouquet making job). Cops get $x for every bushel-carrying gangster they kill, the farther they get towards end zone maybe more money the cop gets. It could be shown if they have one by them carrying the bushel of flowers icon over their head with the same gani as the p4 carry in pc era. If they go in the water, they lose it. Would be a way for people to get faction specific jobs that are appropriate. Skill: Please make a bus that you can invite up to 20 players into that can bring people places! It would be nice to transport whole guilds from base to base. basically it would be an instanced level much like the ships on Graal Kingdoms for pc. when exiting it you go wherever the driver is(only the driver sees the actual level, the passengers see the inside level) |

Callimuc is already working on pets, and they're gonna be something a heck of a lot better than furniture.

Nice ideas, but some would create a bunch of lag. Also, seeing as you're pretty well known, these ideas may be in the making as we speak. |

1) Sounds like fun, but also extremely complicated, especially if it's on the same map as all the players are on. 2) This idea and the racing could be mixed together, I think. Make a racing track house, except make it partially off the map, which means you can't see all of it. Then, when you enter, it goes to the separate map, and it's like you're just on an extension of the other one. You go into the race house, it's a nice level showing various old racing cars and such, and you walk through various doors to go to the certain race track for the option you want. 3) See above. 4) I like this. No comments. 5) No need for comments, if it's in process. 6) Seems kind of pointless, but would be a nice addition and make the city seem more lively. 7) Would be cool, and it is cool if it's already being worked on, but it seems too much like all those games there are where you're some Mary-Sue teenager who's out in the big city, being really popular and somehow having anything perfect. But it's all okay, because sometimes she's too nice! Really. Those types of games just irritate me. 8) I like this. No comments. 9) Would be cool, if done right. Otherwise it would seem like an over-the-top fantasy world where everything is brightly coloured and perfect. It doesn't really fit the whole gritty gangsters theme Era is about. 10) I don't actually play Era, but I suppose this is a good idea. Can't really comment though. 11) Yes good, but wouldn't actually be good if it just starts getting too active and too spammed. 12) Question: so just quests depending on your alignment? |

I like all. Plus, no one ever flower picks for money in era. It bothers me when something is not being used in a game and just takes up space in the server.
