| |'''Description:''' Ok, I know this has no chance of ever happening, but it's still fun to discuss the possibilities. What if Urban Dead had Unlimited AP? You could play it like a normal MMORPG.And like a normal MMORPG, once you log out, your character dissapears and wont reappear untill you log back in. I think this idea would be fun, I know it doesnt have a chance in hell of ever happeneing, and would require ALOT of work and possibly an entirely different server, but what do you guys think? | | |'''Description:''' Allow 'ignore' from radio broadcasts; users are hiding behind their anonymity to allow them to broadcast things that would broadly trigger them to be ignored, if their user ID was visible. Adding their name, or an auto-generated call-sign (it is for a radio, after all) or something so that they could be blocked based on their broadcasts would help user experience. In addition, and broadcasts that get more than a threshold number could get tagged for review, and the user potentially having their (in-game) ham-license revoked. |

| There'd be some lovely seiges, but, as mentioned above, the vast majority of the wiki regulars and a massive number of others in game would never log off. This suggestion would ruin too many lives.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature}} 08:26, 24 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| How do you decide when someone logs off? By the actual log out action, or something else? How would zombies find anyone to eat? How would buildings remain intact with no one there to meatshield? How would zombies hold ruins with no one there to block repairs? A change like this essentially makes the game much more boring and much less meaningful, since you'd see far less people and would interact with those that you did see in a much MUCH more volatile environment, which is bad for everyone. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 08:40, 24 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| :Also, barricades would become meaningless, since they would serve no purpose, but survivors would still have to wait on others before they could be revived, so while zombies could go on rampages and kill every survivor in the game with essentially no way for the survivors to defend, survivors couldn't even get revives going without some level of advanced coordination. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 08:43, 24 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| ::Ah! But then we could introduce NPCs to do those things for us! And to sort out the flavour issues of having no zombies or survivors at any given time, we could reset it in a fantasy theme. That would also get rid of the need for revives; everyone would be a living human! We wouldn't have buildings or barricades, we'd just have a big map with a couple of towns and loads of creatures! So yeah, basically Runescape.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature}} 08:46, 24 September 2010 (BST)

| |'''Type:''' building add-on | | |'''Type:''' Map change |
| |- | | |- |
| |'''Scope:''' all, mainly aimed at siege warfare | | |'''Scope:''' Everyone |
| |- | | |- |
| |'''Description:''' Right, this was inspired by economics.. so uhm... I sorta have to go into the theory behind it a bit, I promise not to bore you too much. Currently, in UD, if a survivor wants something, they must provide it themselves, they physically, must go to the TRP and search for that object, then go back, this is somewhat of a.... waste of AP, in terms of how effecient it could be really. So instead of trying to be a subsistence economy, where survivors work purely for themselves (heals cades and gennies excluded) what about having a 'stock pile' item, maybe call it a storage locker, and make it show up in factories, malls and auto-repair locations with a percentage chance equivelent (roughly anyway) to the generator search percentage at this location. | | |'''Description:''' There are just over 3000 active characters in the game currently likely counting a significant percentage of alts and zergs. Shrinking the map by eliminating the outer first two rings of suburbs would increase the amount of interactions between the remaining characters. This shrink could be increased or decreased depending on future changes to the playerbase. |
| | |
| And here's how it works:
| |
| | |
| Upon using a storage locker in a location without one the message will be displayed:
| |
| 'you clunk down the locker to help keep supplies fresh and off of the floor'
| |
| and on a tangent you can have errors for dark and ruined buildings:
| |
| 'you can't find anywhere stable to put the locker down' (ruined)
| |
| 'in spite of trying to put it down, no one can actually see supplies in the locker' (dark)
| |
| | |
| Then, when set up, it essentially acts like a public inventory. It costs 1AP to deposit one item, and one AP to withdraw (and anyone can withdraw, it's a public service)
| |
| | |
| Now, before you go off saying that doesn't make sense, imagine if you had a hospital under seige. So, you have a group ready with ammo to repel any break throughs, but off course, after every break through, they have to go back to the PD, spending AP, search, spending AP and then return, spending AP that they may well need to just do their job and fight. So you set up a supply locker instead, and can get someone without a real job as it stands (ie, lower level players)to go fetch the ammo, saving AP for the actual matter at hand.
| |
| | |
| It even works in the same location, say a hospital, if you have one surgeon taking FAK's out of the locker while another two helpers just hunt down the FAK's the surgeon has spent less AP.
| |
| | |
| So basicly, it's a suggestion aimed at making it so survivors working together, are more effecient.
| |
| | |
| The final part I would put is that if anyone takes out an item you put in (IE something useful and needed) you gain a single XP, this is to positively enforce placing useful goods inside rather than trash that wastes space (without say, forcing people who REALLY want to have a newspaper collection locker, to give up their bizzare dreams)
| |
| | |
| Thank you, first suggestion so I hope I filled in the form okay.

| ====Discussion (Stockpiles)==== | | ====Discussion (Shrink the map)==== |
| | |
| Is there anything that stops a jerk taking all the supplies? Is there anything that will stop multi abuse (I create two level 1 characters and supply them with my level 40+ character)? [[User:Whitehouse]] 13:53, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| While this might be the sort of thing that would happen in a real-life zombie apocalypse, having stockpiles in this game would lead to multi-abuse, as Whitehouse has already pointed out. You could specify that only members of your group could store/take items form a particular pile, but even then that could still be abused as the zerger could add his little pets to the group (see [[User:Rosslessness/Hmm]]). If there was a way this could be prevented, this may be worth looking into. {{User:Chief Seagull/Sig}} 14:25, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Can I burn the stockpile and kill everyone in the room from asphyxiation? --[[User:Aeon17x|Aeon17x]] 14:34, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Try playing Shintolin. It has stockpiles. They are broken. It's not so much of an issue with zergers, as much as it is an issue with them promoting raiders and bandits. Shintolin doesn't punish bandits for what they do, so they absolutely flourish in the game, since they can roam from village to village, raiding and pillaging as they go along. I'd expect the same to happen here. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 17:34, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Good Idea, however it has to much potential for abuse.--[[User:TheWritingWriter|TheWritingWriter]] 20:22, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| This idea is getting a lot better feedback then went I suggested it! (it got turned down by about 5 people in the first couple hours) --[[User:Kakashi on crack|Gat]] 04:38, 24 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Right... to stop abuse, part of that is the 1AP cost, which means that aggressive survivors still have to pay some cost to pick items up (while it doesn't prevent multi, to be honest, if I have to argue how a suggestion in UD can't be abused by multi, I'm gonna loose XD). As for locking it... hmm, I dunno, only if you could have multiple (say 3) supply lockers in an area, and make it so they disappear if empty and uninteracted with for a certain period. Yes, PKers could destroy stock piles as well, but as for burning htem... naaah :P --[[User:Tabbitha Duo|Tabbitha Duo]] 15:45, 24 September 2010 (BST) (and apologies Kakashi, I wasn't aware it had being suggested)
| |
| | |
| :I like the idea in theory but as stated above, it has potential for abuse. I can't really think of a way around that. The 1AP cost wouldn't be too much of a deterrent, I'm afraid. If you develop a way around potential abuse, I think it would be a decent suggestion. --{{User:Vapor/sig}} 16:58, 24 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Oh uhm... pass word the locker? Or... sigh... UD's groups aren't exclusive (in game terms) to use them to lock stuff away really. But, in the same way gennies are a public service to keep going, so would lockers be, these aren't lockers for just you, it's for everone involved in that building. In other words, I have no idea of a method that would eliminate abuse without simultaneously prevent them being used for what they should be. Which I suppose would (in the case of implementation) be just something you'd have to deal with, you needn't put down things in a stockpile unless you feel the need and if your co-ordinating with group members there's nothing to stop you from either both being on at the same time to essentially 'trade' items or to designate an out of the way building as an emergency supply and politely graffiti the consequences of people stealing from your stock pile (you could, as unfluffy as it would be, make it so the stockpiles setter can always see who used it). On the note of zergers providing for their mini zergers, I'll say (and stress) that zerging is a pretty big factor in UD, and it's difficult for me to really well... fix my suggestion against that flaw. One way I suppose you could do it is count the players locker as that player for IP detection and anti-zerg measure purposes. --[[User:Tabbitha Duo|Tabbitha Duo]] 20:28, 24 September 2010 (BST)

| Alright, on a brighter note... It's a community chest basically, like featured in some nwn servers. It would either be filled with complete junk players wanted to get rid of, and would have the occasional valuable item... Could be interesting, and those types of thingsh ave been useful in the past games I've played. --[[User:Kakashi on crack|Gat]] 23:17, 24 September 2010 (BST)

| |
| |'''Description:''' Just a few tweaks/new skill ideas I'm throwing out in case one or two is worth looking at:
| |
| | |
| *Feeding drag in reverse - maybe a new skill, lets zombies pull weak zombies (<13HP) ''inside'' uncaded buildings, maybe only into ruins. Aids squatting.
| |
| *Holiday addition - during the Christmas period, turned on and off at the same time as snow/decorations/trees etc, add the letter J to death rattle and remove it when the season's over. Why? ''Jangar barrz''.
| |
| *Addition to gesturing - allow gesture to function like newspapers, giving the option to "gesture beckoningly" at someone, or maybe worded better, allowing them alone to see it, like papers.
| |
| *Zombie 'graffiti' - allow zombies with a new skill, under memories, to replace graffiti with gore and filth, giving the message {{udspan|Someone has smeared gore and filth across here}} instead of the graffiti text. Cost would be 2AP a time to balance out lack of item.
| |
| *A skill under construction allowing barricading of ruins for either double cost (2AP per attempt) or half the success rate, mostly for culting but also for aiding reclamation of ghost towns.
| |
| |}
| |
| ====Discussion (Like below, trying out several ideas at once)====
| |
| Squatting Drag - Yes. ''You! Stoopid! Get on point!''<br>Holi-J - Meh.<br>Gesture Under Table - Double meh. Use your claws.<br>Zombiti - No. Zombies don't need the ability to spam lies. Plus it would make life culting far overpowered.<br>Ruin cading - Are you insane? Ruins are underpowered enough as it is, don't make them half-pointless. --{{User:TripleU/Sig}} 04:27, 23 September 2010 (BST)

| :Easy pinatas is the point. Pehaps giving zombies the ability to lay pipes would serve the same purpose better. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 04:38, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Reversed Feeding drag could be useful, maybe if a zombie has recently killed a survivor, they could "tag" certain buildings with bloody hand prints, but nothing serious. Not big on the others. --[[User:Kakashi on crack|Gat]] 04:33, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Bullet pointed lists like this are why Santa cries (yes, Santa) when you make multiple suggestions at once.
| |
| *Drag - No. Zombies that want to be outside, rather than squatting in buildings, should be allowed to stay outside to hear groans, not get pulled inside where they can't.
| |
| *Holi-J - Only if it mentions that their tongues are frozen. Otherwise no.
| |
| *Gesturing - No.
| |
| *Graffiti - In addition to graffiti, yes. In place of, no. It needs to be cleanable as well by survivors.
| |
| *Construction - No.
| |
| My opinions are irrefutable. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 04:47, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| :Well yeah, the implication was that zombie smearing would be paintable over just like other graffiti is. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 05:15, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| You know how you can use a UV light to see whether there have been... bodily fluids in an area, whereas normal humans won't see a thing?<br>What if zombies have that same kind of vision, such that when they graffiti or whatever you call the zombie equivalent only the fellow undead can see it? --[[User:Aeon17x|Aeon17x]] 05:26, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Putting on my devious hat. Say I'm in borehamwood, I could suicide repair a 500ap repair, get a friendly zombie to drag me outside, ruin the place, then drag me back inside. Passing zombies would just see a ruin as I idle safely out. The graffiti thing is an age old dupe, probably katthew. --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 14:07, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| :I think the drag's only for pulling zombies inside. And, as Aich, that only hurts zombies who are outside to hear groans. Holiday J would be a cute addition, no harm there. Nothing wrong with beckoning either, though I don't know what it'd be used for. Ruining graffiti, very yes. I'm so tired of any zombie genre game having every square surface covered with stupid things. Cading ruins a definite no on account of them being uncadable for a reason.

| | |
| '''Bellowing Rattle'''
| |
| | |
| '''Survivors swear they can understand the screeching of zombies at night, claiming they seem to be speaking out to the horde...'''
| |
| | |
| Found under bellow, if a zombie locates a large group of survivors, they can let out a bellowing rattle for 10 AP. This skill lets a zombie let out a death rattle that can be heard by any zombie/survivor outdoors and/or in a building without a door for up to three blocks away, and counts as a regular bellow
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''Strong Lungs''' (Or strong throat)
| |
| | |
| '''The zombies biological structure has been altered slightly over time, the large bellowing, and groaning sounds it produced have increased the amount of air it can suck ino its deteriorating lungs, and a tougher throat allowing it to make loud noises easier.'''
| |
| | |
| Found under Bellow after reaching level 10, if a zombie uses the bellow skill, they have a reduced cost to only 5.
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''Likes it Rough''' (name is more or less a joke)
| |
| | |
| '''The undead have become even more relentless in their attempt to find easy food. Showing almost a parental mentality, the older zombies have been found dragging survivors out of their safe houses with even more strength, slamming them into objects and clawing up their skin as they drag them...'''
| |
| | |
| Requires feeding drag/tangling grasp(?)
| |
| If the zombie has grabbed hold of the survivor, and all requirements have been met for "likes it Rough", then when using feeding drag, there is a chance of harming the survivor in the process, granting the equivalent EXP as if they had hit them.
| |
| 25% chance of harming the survivor for 3 HP in a lit building
| |
| 50% chance of harming a survivor for 3 HP in an unlit building
| |
| 50% chance of harming a survivor for 4 HP in a ransacked/ruined building
| |
| | |
| This last one seemed realistic since we drag humans into the streets all the time for baby zombies, then it would make sense for the zombie to attempt to pulverise them while they are exiting. Even if the zombie wasn't attempting to do that, flavor text points to the survivors trying to get out of their grasp.
| |
| | |
| These three ideas I'm sure are dupes, but seemed like good suggestions when I thought on them. In fact, there's rarely an idea which hasn't been duped before XD

| |
| ====Discussion (Duped stuff)====
| |
| No on Bellowing Rattle. Feeding groans are only good because they never lie, unlike the otherwise overpowered radios (disinformation is a surprisingly effective tactic). If one could bellow ''Zaan, nah marh harmanz haarh.'' (Soon, no more survivors here.), even when they're the first to breach a building with 100+ survivors, they could trick the less than immediate listeners into not following the next few bellows from there. A key difference between zombies and survivors is that zombies needn't worry about trust, they just help each other kill. Don't let them lie to 4.4% of their zetheren all at once.
| |
| | |
| Yes on Strong Lungs. Perhaps make it still cheaper, as in 1AP. Easy to counter, just sleep in groups of 24 or less. Also encourages coordinated cultists to work together as a team to allow one of them to bellow; Teamwork is fun.
| |
| | |
| Yes on Likes it Rough. However, make it just as effective in lit, unlit, and dark buildings. Perhaps even have it do 5 damage in ruins, there's a lot of rusty nails and broken glass in those. But absolutely make it non-fatal, like falling from a ruin. No sense buying a skill that might unintentionally kill your friend's meal. --{{User:TripleU/Sig}} 02:51, 23 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| | |
| Not terrible. Basically, I'd have two skills. Banshee Wail (Bellow Costs Reduced to 5) and Forced Removal, successfully feeding dragging a survivor causes them to lose 3hp, 5hp if the building is ruined. --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 09:23, 23 September 2010 (BST)

| Don't like it - needing to completely replace clothes gives value to some buildings that otherwise would have none, such as Mansions and Stadiums. If you want new football shoes or diamond necklaces, then repairing them is the only solution - which gives an incentive to leave your mall in the green suburb and to do something, which is good in my books. --{{User:Spiderzed/Sandbox/Sig}} 17:21, 21 September 2010 (BST)

| I dislike this. It's bad for flavour reasons (I'm not even particularly keen on attacks telling you a zombie's HP), and I feel it'd be a minor (not huge, but noticeable) downer for zombies. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 16:13, 21 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| :That's not a bad idea. Survivors without diagnosis can't see zombie heath when attacking. Perhaps indicators when they reach 25 or 12 health, such as ''You shoot at the zombie for 4 damage. Coagulated blood begins to flow from their wounds.'' and ''You shoot at the zombie for 4 damage. Their many wounds reveal shattered bone and tattered muscle.'' You could still find the exact health values, you'd just have to work a little for it. --{{User:TripleU/Sig}} 02:32, 23 September 2010 (BST)

| | |
| The only value in something like this would be to let you see the HP values of zombies that ''aren't'' at the top of the stack, but that would be overpowered. It makes no flavor sense (yes, I'm a flavor nazi) that you could find out the HP of the zombie at the top of the stack without finding out the values of those beneath it. In the end, just use an axe. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 22:24, 21 September 2010 (BST)

| |
| {|
| |
| |'''Timestamp:''' {{User:Spiderzed/Sandbox/Sig}} 12:45, 19 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| |-
| |
| |'''Type:''' Value change
| |
| |-
| |
| |'''Scope:''' Everyone
| |
| |-
| |
| |'''Description:''' Let's go crazy and halve all hitpoints. These would be the concrete effects:
| |
| *Starting humans and zombies have 25HP.
| |
| *[[Bodybuilding]]/[[Flesh Rot]] just grants +5HP rather than +10HP, giving a total of 30HP.
| |
| **Revived humans have 12/15HP (depending on if they have Bodybuilding or not.)
| |
| **[[Feeding Drag|drag-eligibility]] still gets triggered at 12HP, putting freshly revived humans without FAKs at great risk (and giving bodybuilding actually some tangible benefit, as even infected bodybuilders aren't draggable right off the bat)
| |
| *damage from weapons and infection remains unaltered
| |
| *damage from failed [[Freerunning]] into ruins is halved to 2HP, rather than 5HP (17-20% of total possible health for stumbling over rubble would be a bit extreme, wouldn't it?)
| |
| *healing still heals 5/10/15HP depending on circumstances and skills, and digestion still grants 4HP per bite
| |
| *XP for healing and attacking remain the same
| |
| Why go that crazy? Because of these beneficial effects:
| |
| | |
| '''Zombies'''
| |
| *Lone ferals get a far better chance to break in and still have the AP to drag/kill someone, making even lone ferals dangerous.
| |
| *Cheap revive costs become far less of an issue in balance, as they are closer to kill costs, without the need to raise the AP costs for reviving to a ridiculous amount
| |
| **At the same time, combat revives remain a viable tactic, as they work reliably for exactly 10AP and just use up a single 2% item (unlike melee weapons, which probably use more than the 10AP, and unlike guns, which clog up more than 2% of encumbrance).
| |
| *Eating corpses becomes a viable tactic, as the AP costs to do so are close to that of receiving a headshot and rising again with full HP
| |
| | |
| '''PKers'''
| |
| *PKers would need far less HP to kill, allowing further away bolt-holes and epic striketeam mass homicide
| |
| *PKers could actually make some impact, as the kill costs are so close to revive costs
| |
| *OTOH, the halved HP would put also PKers at greater risk, as even [[dark]] places aren't a darn safe protection from every lone wolf without a genny and fuel. A bodybuilding PKer with a flak jack could be killed with a pistol for 20AP on average (((30HP / 4 damage)/65% hit probability)/50% darkness penalty).
| |
| **Carrying genny+fuel for PKer hunting would still be a sensible option, as it allows a.) to "bank" AP in advance that later make it easier to hunt PKers and b.) it allows to collect multiple bounties in dark places swarming with PKers
| |
| **This would also give bounty-hunting/retribution kills some sense, as the costs for doing so aren't so much ridicoulously higher than the costs to revive the PKers (although it would still remain somewhat less AP-efficient than ignoring PKers and putting the APs rather into reviving the victims)
| |
| | |
| '''Survivors'''
| |
| *Survivors get a far better chance to break a cade block, as they can kill and dump multiple zeds per individual AP cycle. A survivor loaded with pistols could repel a rotter for 10AP on average, allowing him to kill and dump 4 zeds at once and still cade a bit if he is fully rested. (((30HP / 4 damage)/65% hit probability = 10AP, +1AP for dumping = 11AP per pop)
| |
| *Survivors can fill up their inventory mostly with FAKs, syringes, a toolbox and maybe also a genny and/or fuel, and still put enough guns into their spare encumbrance for them to actually have an effect. A single revolver and a spare clip for a total of 6% would be sufficient to repel a single fully healthy rotter
| |
| | |
| '''Flavour'''
| |
| *3-4 shotgun blasts or 5-8 revolver bullets would be all what it takes to send someone to the boot hill, rather than the ridiculous amount of abuse that folks can take right now before they die
| |
| | |
| The beneficial effects would probably be slightly more in favour of zombies than survivors (as the imperative of zombies is to attack whenever possible, while survivors usually only fight when things have gone wrong), but it would offer something for both, and it would especially nerf the dreaded cade blocking without removing it entirely.
| |
| | |
| I'm aware that it's crazy and extreme, but I see a lot of merit in this. Discuss.

| It's an interesting idea. I could see the benefits of it but also see how it would be much less beneficial to survivors. Ultimately I think it would drive away players, especially those that play strictly as survivors. Therefore I would likely kill vote it if it comes up in the suggestion portal. --{{User:Vapor/sig}} 18:53, 19 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| :It's not like a survivor has to put up with a lot of death, unless he seeks it out. The last three times a survivor of mine died was when I purposefully slept in red zones and in Blackmore NT. Remember also that this suggestion does nothing to cades - they remain the roadblock that they are right now, and probably even more so, as it becomes possible to break a cade block. It just makes things more exciting when the cades actually break (which is rare enough). --{{User:Spiderzed/Sandbox/Sig}} 19:33, 19 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| The main issue I see here is Dealt in lead syndrome. Once somebody dies, they'll die again so quickly that the game loses loads of its playability. Griefing becomes ridiculously overpowered, not to mention zerging. Ultimately, it's steps to speeding up the game, the same thing as doubling AP would do. Too much could happen while somebody was offline for this to be a completely logical decision.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature}} 19:04, 19 September 2010 (BST)

| :That's what you should carry FAKs for (and they aren't really hard to find, unlike healing items in DiL). Even my PKers carry at all times at least 1 FAK, and more likely 2 or 3 of them.

| ::::I can see Ross' point about survivor newbs. They'd probably need something to partially offset the hardships of this suggestion, such as free Lurching Gait by the rage mechanic, or bonus healing items (FAKs, beers, wines) at the start. That would be a different suggestion, though. (And linking this suggestion with an unrelated suggestion would most likely greatly diminish the chance to get this through the suggestion system. I'm open to be convinced to the contrary, though.)
| |
| ::::OTOH, babah zambahz would greatly profit from this. The early ZKing becomes far more profitable, as the 10XP kill bonus is more often handed out. (This also goes for newb survivors who gain their first levels by killing zombies in the streets.)

| Coming from a survivor/PKer/zombie background, I have to say that I like it. Granted, it'll hurt survivors that end up in the crosshairs/claws of their enemies, but it'll help smart survivors, since it'll let them clear buildings more quickly, and it shouldn't hurt them much, since barricades are still there. That it buffs PKing is a nice fringe benefit. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 21:36, 19 September 2010 (BST)

| ::To paraphrase the Prophet, zombies don't have 50AP. They have 44AP. Learn to accept it and embrace it. Though, in your case, it's a bit less. :P Besides, this won't increase the rate that you're killed very much at all for the simple reason that they can't kill you twice. When I first started out, I woke up dead as often as not (come to think of it, not much has changed...), but until I stand up again, they can't kill me again, which means that you'd still be starting off each day with 35-40AP, just as you are now. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 21:50, 19 September 2010 (BST)

| |
| :::::This is really my only real concern with the suggestion. I could most certainly go for lowering the health of survivors and zombies across the board, but the possibility of a one-shot kill due to a fuel+flare gun combo seems too much.

| It encourages people to travel in large groups instead of the 1-5 survivors all huddled in a building barricading/the lone zombies trying to tough it out. Also encourages people to be a little smarter in their actions... I like it for the most part, even though there are a few ways this could be bad.

| Yeah, right. Seems like newbs are the big roadblock that this suggestion has to deal with. Ideas on goodies that could be linked with this suggestion and are still minor enough to not kill it? Personally, I'd be inclined to give new zombies Digestion for free, and to give new survivors 1 bonus FAK and 1 wine/beer for free. Importing the [[Borehamwood#Skills|Rage mechanic]] could also work to help both kinds of newbs (and would be easy-peasy, as the code already exists and would just need to be applied to Malton). --{{User:Spiderzed/Sandbox/Sig}} 08:52, 20 September 2010 (BST)

| Becomes way to easy to max out your characters. Firemen and Corpses basically become gods with this implementation. I'll admit it would be fun for awhile, but whats the point of making max characters so easily? also, it would be easy to grief people like this, just stand in revive points like cemeteries and kill everything, which because of the half life, becomes much easier.--[[User:TheWritingWriter|TheWritingWriter]] 23:50, 20 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| :At best, it means 20XP per day more, as the 10XP kill bonus is handed out more often. There are still 50AP, and base XP for attacking remain the same. In the case of newbs it are probably even far less then those 20XP, as they don't have the hit% to kill effectively. --{{User:Spiderzed/Sandbox/Sig}} 08:01, 21 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| I like the idea in theory, in practice, not so much. Everybody's listed a bunch of good reasons, so I'll add another voice to those, but the thing that gets me most is "The limit of 50AP per 25 hours is to keep the game balanced and to stop too much from happening overnight; if we doubled the recharge rate, it'd mean people getting in a hundred APs' worth of actions while other players were offline, which is enough to cross the city or deal an easily fatal amount of combat damage."
| |
| | |
| Ignoring the bits about movement and barricades, there's still the point that while ferals and small groups would gain a lot of benefits, large-scale engagements won't be happening again. At least not as we know them. They'd end way too quickly. [[User:RinKou|RinKou]] 05:30, 21 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| :Large-scale engagements? What large-scale engagements? There haven't been any since cade blocking has been introduced. The last two things to happen that were close to large-scale engagements were No Escape and Blackmore 404, and they were more save-or-die affairs that turned into hopeless slaughterfests as soon as the beachhead stood. Less HP for everyone might even ''counter'' that, as it becomes thinkable to put a serious dent into a beachhead (alone, or in a small ad-hoc strike team in case of groups using IRC), so that cading becomes possible again. --{{User:Spiderzed/Sandbox/Sig}} 08:01, 21 September 2010 (BST)

| |'''Description:''' Airstrike, called in by radio on a specific frequency (probably only available at Forts). When the player with the '''Call in Airstrike''' skill broadcasts "Requesting Airstrike [xx,yy]" on the correct frequency, it will instantly return the message "Airstrike Request, Location [xx,yy]: Location name, Please confirm.", to which the player can confirm for 20AP, or cancel for 0AP. The frequency will then broadcast "Airstrike [xx,yy] ETA 24hrs", and will periodically rebroadcast the time remaining. Any player with the '''Call in Airstrike''' skill can abort the airstrike up to 1 minute before impact, even if they didnt call it in. They would broadcast "Abort Airstrike [xx,yy]" on the same frequency (But does not need to be the same location.

| Only one Airstrike can be called in at a time for the whole of Malton, and once a successful Airstike takes place, another cannot be called in for another week ("Requesting Airstrike [xx,yy]" "Airstrike unavailable for another (time remaining))
| |
| | |
| Airstrikes will deal 40 damage to everybody, regardless of whether Zombie or Survivor on the block of impact. And building will be ruined with "Explosion damage", and take a lot more AP to repair. Surounding blocks will randomly take damage up to a 5 block radius.
| |
| | |
| Airstrikes cannot be called in if any part of a fort is within that 5 block radius.

| |
| |'''Description:''' This is a more refined version of a previous proposal by another player ([[Suggestions/11th-Nov-2005#Booby_Trap|11th-Nov-2005 Booby Trap]]) to implement a Military skill under the construction section called booby trap. This is a very limited skill which would allow for a survivor to implement a single booby trap in a building that is barricaded. It is a single firing booby trap. Buildings which are not barricaded can not have booby traps. A barricaded building can not have multiple booby traps.
| |
|
| |
| Like all other construction skills, it would require having a toolbox and maybe another object, such as a length of pipe, which is consumed for the trap. The booby trap would go off to impact only the person to "bring down the last of the barricade." This could be either zombie or survivor. It would do a small amount of damage, maybe 5 or 10 hp. I would suggest that it take considerable AP to set up a booby trap, maybe 5 or 10 AP. Because it does take so many AP, if someone tries to booby trap an already booby-trapped building, they should be told before the AP expenditure that "A booby trap has already been set here." Maybe it could be part of the description of the barricade, but only from the inside of the building.
| |
|
| |
| In addition, to balance the skill, zombies could have a recognize booby trap ability in their Memories of Life section. That could either work outright to avoid the trap, or have a high percentage chance to avoid the trap. Unskilled zombies would be unable to avoid triggering the trap. I believe this is in character with the apocalyptic zombie survivor mentality, and I think it would be a fun addition to the game. Additional suggestions for this idea are welcomed.

| You cite a dupe, say that it's more refined, but then, as far as I can tell, have not made any substantial changes aside from making it less powerful. That suggestion was killed by nearly everyone for a reason, and I don't see anything here that changes my mind. It effectively allows survivors to "bank" AP by investing it in the trap, which can later be spent to do damage. See also: [[Suggestions Dos and Do Nots#Writing New Suggestions|Dos and Do Nots]] (the point about pinning down details), [[Frequently_Suggested#Auto Attacks|Auto Attacks]], and the [[Frequently_Suggested#The List|list of frequent suggestions]] (check the entry for "Traps"). {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 21:07, 17 September 2010 (BST)

| |
| Well, the suggestion of tying it to a barricade was really more to limit the places where they could be set up, but I understand what you are saying about banking AP. I did think it was much more thought out, not unlimited in scope as the previous suggestion. The idea behind it is that the length of pipe "rests" on the barricade and when the last layer is taken out, whoever is underneath gets beaned by it. The trap is gone after that. And remember, it may not be a zombie. There are those survivors who choose to work for the dark side of the force! But you are right, the essence of the concept has not changed. I will certainly understand if, for that reason, it is not implemented. [[User:Naughteous Maximus|Naughteous Maximus]] 21:31, 17 September 2010 (BST)
| |
| :While booby traps fit the zombie apocolyptic setting, they would fall under so many dupes that it's pointless to uggest one. Still, why would it do 5-10 damage instead of the regular pipe damage? --[[User:Kakashi on crack|Gat]] 22:27, 17 September 2010 (BST)
| |
|
| |
| Oh yeah, I forgot about the shotgun. Sorry. And its multiply by 1000 because EVERY safehouse is going to have one of these damn things. And whenever it runs out, people will keep making more of it. I'm pretty sure there's a rule against uber powerful single shots.--[[User:TheWritingWriter|TheWritingWriter]] 04:16, 19 September 2010 (BST)

| Basically a knife-hatchet hybrid. Because it has a longer blade and its fairly easy to use so it has more base accuracy, but it doesn't have the handle length to get a good swing or the weight to inflict enough damage as the axe would so it inflicts only 2 damage. Has a great Roleplaying value.

| |
| |'''Description:''' I am reintroducing the "sentry" idea to fit more properly with the new scouting skills of the survivors. The "Sentry Duty" skill.
| |
|
| |
|
| | A: It will be useful if you want to carry around an extra stash of items, such as FAKs and Revivification Syringes, or if you are going far away from any resource buildings and need some extra supplies. |
|
| |
|
| This is how it will work:
| |
|
| |
|
| You can buy this skill if you have bought the scout safehouse skill. You must be within your scouted safe house for the skill to work. When you buy the skill a new button will be available to you but it can only be used in your scouted safehouse. The function of the sentry skill is making the player guard the barricades and attack any zombies that may damage the barricade (for example a zombie clawing the barricade from EHB to VHB++)the player automatically attacks the zombie with the selected weapon (BUT THE PLAYER CAN ONLY BLOCK FIVE TIMES MAX).
| | Please give your thoughts. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
| Here is a good example:
| |
|
| |
| John is happy. John just purchased the "Sentry Duty" skill today. John is preparing to leave the computer for the day and stopped in his safehouse with 16AP to spare(11 + 5 extra). John new he would be alone in that safe house for a long time tonight so he chose to click the drop down menu's next to the "Begin Sentry Duty" button. The first; how much time he wanted to guard for and the second; what weapon he was going on sentry duty with. John chose 24 hours and Shotgun(2)(This was a great choice for John because he had Advanced shotgun training). As John proceeded to click the "Begin Sentry Duty" button he realized there was a warning in red next to the button. John clicked the "Begin Sentry Duty" button. John could now automatically attack the next zombie that damages the barricades.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| 2AP per hour - 1AP per hour = 1AP per hour so durring sentry duty john regenrates 1 AP an hour
| |
|
| |
| x = # of hours
| |
|
| |
| 16AP - 15AP = 1AP + 1APx
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Within 13 hours there was a zombie that broke John's barricades down one level. John's character emediatelly jumped into action and shot the zombie intruder(gaining xp for the # of hours at post and the XP for the combat). But at any moment john could click the "End Sentry Duty" button that replaced the begin sentry duty button or preform an action besides talking and is refunded the AP used to pay every hour that hasn't been payed yet(saves the AP not used yet).
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| 1AP + (1AP * 13hours) = 14AP
| |
|
| |
| then after sentry duty ends
| |
|
| |
| 14AP + 2APx

| |
|
| |
| Lets see, we got... shooting through barricades, auto-attacks, auto-HITS (from what I read) and improper AP loss. The way I see this, it states a survivor can set up base in a building, create a sentry, sleep that night, check the sentry in the morning to make sure they are still blocking, spend a few AP searching/restarting sentry duty, and continuosly do this over and over again by simply checking the server every couple hours. On top of that, a CRAPTON of survivors could all set up this same thing at the same time, allowing them all to shoot the same zombie. Also includes multiple by a thousand rule now. Do headshots apply? *facepalms* I realize a lot of people aren't satisfied with Kevan's new skill, but how about we just say "this skill sucks" rather than try to ammend it with a million different ideas, like how we did such with certain zombie skills which are considered generally pointless until later on (or vice versa).

At the same time, I would have killed to have an alternate zombie class with brain rot, since personally, I like the idea of a harder chance at surviving as a zombie at lower levels. I mean heck, I got all the skills generally considered useless before getting the good skills as my first zombie for the reason of making the game more interesting. If there's a small note attached to it warning people who are new to UD about the effects the class has, (such as... "Hey, this class makes playing as a zombie just a tad bit harder early on, but is great for those who want a bit of a challenge." or something along those lines) then I would be perfectly fine with it. --[[User:Kakashi on crack|Gat]] 00:25, 11 September 2010 (BST)

| Make it an option for all character classes - start normally, or start w/ brain rot. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 00:30, 11 September 2010 (BST)

| :Perhaps new characters could choose between Corpse (Vigor Mortis) or Rotten Corpse (Vigor Mortis ''and'' Brain Rot). No need to fool new survivors into ruining their lives, amusing as it would be. --{{User:TripleU/Sig}} 04:37, 11 September 2010 (BST)

| I think it would be a little overpowered if a zombie started with two skills. I wish there were more zombie classes though, to add a little moar variety.--[[User:TheWritingWriter|TheWritingWriter]] 04:21, 19 September 2010 (BST)

| Just buy Brain Rot as your first skill. That's arguably harder, given how CR-happy some neighbourhoods are… {{User:Revenant/Sig}} 09:40, 19 September 2010 (BST)
