Playing Around with Ideas.

You'll be doing the one that's 10 years later before you do this one, riiiight?

Personally I say C. A sounds too simple and B sounds too mediocre. Go risky with C, and see how smart our roleplayers really are. Besides, you won't have people complaining they can't join because you don't have enough slots.

No way am I doing C because I don't want to put time into this character just to have him die randomly without any other reason than the injection killed him.

I'm not voting

...I think I'll wait to see what everyone else says. Though for me it's either B or C. C sounds hard... >.<

Three people, basically, dying instantly? That sucks man.

That's why I'm not joining if that is what happens...it isn't challenging, it's simply unfair to the players

This is the life in the pit where everyone died? And Colin walked into the magical lollipop door or something like that?

I think people should die if they aren't smart... On Travian the best RPs are the ones where people die if they do stupid stuff, like run into a room of guards or walk up to soldiers who are pointing guns and intimidate them. Those RPs are the only ones where people actually choose to run away from battles and disengage (as opposed to free form RPs and regular ones where people stick in a gunfight and somehow come out either spotless (if they godmod) or with a cut)

I know there could be problems to this, but I think this could be a good test if we pick C. However, if we pick C, I don't think we should do injection deaths and roll-deaths you can't control. It would just piss people off, but dying for breathing in the wrong place would be fun.

Anyway, voted C, the good outweighs the bad. For once people will actually care about their Chars and not just run into dangerous situations and magically come out alive, and for once people will choose to run away from fights they know they can't win.

Long story short: C will make people actually value their Char's safety and make realistic decisions while the only bad thing that comes is that people might bitch for a day. It's worth it. Granted, instant deaths you can't control don't bring benefits.

Ok, as long as their is no random, "insta-death" then I'm cool with C.

yeah...I enjoy difficulty, but insta-death is bs

Well yeah, but before you said:

Once you get the injection for powers, 1-2 of you will die instantly.

After day 1 of having powers, 1-2 of you will die again.

That sucks.

I like the "die if you say or do the wrong thing" thing, it's just the die without prevention opportunity thing

Yeah, I'm thinking of taking out the rolling deaths for those. BUT I am still going to make random people more vulnerable then others, but outweigh it with more strength.

Liiike, instead of the initial instant death, just make them have super bad stuff, but are incredibly powerful later on. Stuff like that. As I said, those details are still ideas.

Well that could be influenced by their own decisions. It would put people in dilemmas.

I,e, there's a firefight. Two of the 9 remaining alphas grabbed guns and are slugging it out. Their chars tell the others to run. Now the guards are heavily armed and other 7 alphas could try to ambush them (the risky, greedy option) and take the risk of death to grab their armor and put it on (what everyone would do if the threat of death was virtually nonexistant), or do what the gunmen told them to and GTFO. Now the gunmen have choices as well. They could cover their allies retreats or ditch them and quit the firefight and bolt, leaving the unarmed alphas to their doom but perhaps ensuring their safety for the time to come. I approve of making uneven but in the end balanced evolutions, but please don't push it too far xD

Nonono, PLEASE KILL US!!!!

That's going in the quote book for its cheesiness.

Don't let people decide deaths. This is unique in a good way. A lot of people and a lot of deaths

FINALLY, lol
