Suggestion description

• Beer and Wine should have a more advanced effect. The idea is that, for the next 5 action, every action would cost twice as many AP. During this period, though, players would take half as much damage.
• There should be another item: Caffiene Pills. The Caffeine Pills would put a character into a caffiene rush. During the rush, characters would be allowed to go into negative AP. The rush would end when a character goes down to -5 AP.
• Also, there would be Drugs in the game. After a player is attacked, they could take the Drugs. It would negate the damage of the attack, but the damage would come back twice as hard in 5 actions. Drugs would give a 5% chance of infection

Drugs and Caffeine Pills could be found in pubs. Caffiene Pills could also be found in Hospitals, and Drugs could be found in Police Stations.

Keep Votes

1. Keep - I support this, since I suggested something similar on DevSug once. Of course, and as expected, I had it explained to me perfectly reasonably why Kevan won't code drugs into the game, and I think Alcohol should have a more severe penalty, but whatever. Good luck getting this one through, Chuckles.--Necrofeelinya 23:37, 31 May 2009 (BST)

Kill Votes

1. Kill - Alcohol's effect can be abused. Take a swig before you log off, take half damage while you're away! Drugs are just about useless, too. Caffeine is mildly OK. --Bob Boberton ^{TF / DW} 23:00, 31 May 2009 (BST)
   1. Fine, alcohol only works after being logged in. And replace "drugs" with painkillers. --Brainguard 01:20, 1 June 2009 (BST)
2. Kill - There isn't much of a log on/ log off system in Urban Dead. Plus, these are overpowering. I do think alcohol should have more of an effect, though... --Turtleboy412 ^{Talk! In game} 04:23, 1 June 2009 (BST)
3. Kill - please us developing suggestions before putting a suggestion to voting. Drugs are bad, M'kay. As combat is rarely live in Urban Dead, there isn't much point to receiving half damage for the next 5AP, unless you log off with such an effect active, and then it just makes it overpowered and stupid to have offline players at an advantage -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 06:36 1 June 2009 (BST)
4. Kill - I kind of like the caffeine bit as long as it's rare enough so you can't make much of an AP profit with it but the rest is just spam.Legion8 10:14, 3 June 2009 (BST)

Spam/Dupe Votes

1. Overpowered and a multi. How about, instead, players actually take DOUBLE damage when they think they aren't taking any. I mean since when was taking drugs a good thing?--Pesatyel 23:18, 31 May 2009 (BST)
   1. Re: but the damage comes back to bite you in the a** when you take drugs --Brainguard 01:20, 1 June 2009 (BST)
2. Spam - I assume by 'drugs that are found in PD's' you mean illicit drugs. I refuse to accept any drug related suggestion in that sense. D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 01:43, 1 June 2009 (BST)
3. Spam - As DDR--Orange Talk 01:46, 1 June 2009 (BST)
4. Spam - Condones improper drug abuse, as well as being ridiculous, overpowering and plain stupid.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 12:01, 1 June 2009 (BST)
5. Spam - I agree with DDR, the use of drugs should not be involved in a game any one can be playing.--^TCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 20:15, 2 June 2009 (BST)
6. Spam - I agree with DDR & Yonnua Koponen --Bjorn 18:13, 1 June 2009 (BST)
7. Spam - No. As with DDR and Pesatyel. --Private Mark 02:46, 2 June 2009 (BST)
8. As DDR. Seriously. What's next? Cocaine so you can go down to -50 AP? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} (status:‎Mudkip!) 02:49, 2 June 2009 (BST)
