light up the town / Teamwork

[DaGolem 95]

How about repair the Powerplant for Teamplay?

The Players can repair the Powerplant to light up the Town. It takes many, many scrap metal and other Stuff to repair, but then the entire Town filled with light. After mabye 8 Hours the Powerplant will be again destroyed to start the repair Challenge again.

Possible Rewards:

1.Open a close Building with rare Objects

2. more humanity for the good Teamwork

This could be a nice Teamwork Challenge and it brings fun to the see Light of the Town after the hard work.

Lol, this has no benefits, even is the loot is superb.

Trolls can stock on food, get inside and wait for such teams.

You will have to encounter many players and zeds (its a city)

In 8 hours everything begins again.

It is not worth it.

rewards?NO!!Just imagine spending hours to repair it,only to get killed by a player that will go to the building you said to take your reward!!

although it could be really cool to be able to use the powerplant and have generators that you have to refuel,that will maaaaybe boost teamwork.and nvg's will be useless in a bright town!that will change the town visits completely though,it'll be harder to sneak around to loot without getting spotted

To Kpekep2 don't shoot out his idea, explain how this has no benefits? I would assume new otherwise unfound loot would be found in the building that is open, and trolls can be pushed out of the building when the power goes out, or it would be an extra challenge. Of course you will encounter players and zeds, that's the whole point of this standoff! In 8 hrs everything restarts so other people could do the same thing, even if you still hate that that can be changed. To DaGolem, great idea, I would love to see it implemented, don't listen to foolish people like the guy above me.

This normal part of the game that u have alot of Trolls & Campers to Kills other People.

And it normal that they are waiting at church,Shop...to get the survial players ;)

And it is a simple tactik that u repair the Powerplant up to 99% and the last "scrap metal" is filled up at One Player and the other makes the OpenHouse secure and save.

Is this a joke? It doesn't take hours to fix, and of course players will try to kill you and take the stuff, that's why you use a team! NVGS would be useless, so what? Of course it will change how hard it is to loot, a gang is controlling it? Oh my people like you...

This mechanics was suggested many times, but this is not the best implementation.

There were ideas about empowering gas stations to get access to the fuel pumps, along with making gas in the tanks non-infinite.

Also a good idea about empowering the radio towers to communicate with people.

Shortly, this idea should be implemented, but the building part is a bad idea. It needs to be more complicated, for example an entrance to a secret lab, and afterwards tons of stuff can be done...

Kudos to you for an original idea, though I think it needs some work.

Hopefully this kind of thing will be included in the standalone with underground bases that require a massive group effort to repair and maintain.

Have some beans to making the effort and ignore the tards.

This is no the same as the gas station or radio tower idea, please do not mix things up and blame this man for copying. This is a rough idea, and all he said was "Open a close Building with rare Objects"

So, that could mean a entrance to a secret lab with extra options.

I proposed an idea identical to this a month ago in a much longer post (I believe I also referenced/stepped on ideas from other players, too, although no one mentioned them). Still an idea I'm fully behind, though. Being able to briefly change the map and alter the dynamics of the terrain would be something teams would love to roll on. They could even coordinate to storm secret areas for rare loot by splitting up the team. Of course, for big rewards there would be big risks and bandits would naturally want a piece of it. But them's the breaks.

I think the idea would work a lot better, though, once we get rid of tents and vehicle storage. Then you can't just respawn and attack the same areas over and over again once you're killed. Wars would be meaningless.

Technically, wars are meaningless now since you can server hop and regear in three seconds once you die. As soon as there are restrictions on loot hoarding and server hopping, wars for resources and control of areas will be a lot more interesting.

Yep, and i never read this idea´s of gas Station or radio Tower.

And i never make suggestion in closed way because the idea has to be simple and Basic, so that other and the dev Team can change it in a usefull way.

I think this Powerplant Idea can work. It is simple to implement and in the Night it would be fun.

The Challange is not only to repair the Powerplant this is only the first part the second part is that the highlight town say´s to all Bandits and Killers "The Door is Open and there a many Players to kill" and for the repair team is then the second Challenge to defend the open Door and stay alive with all the new and rare loot that everybody wants.
