At first glance the title looked like "Haunted" and I thought it was going to be a ghost-themed event. But with that aside, I like this idea. Now if only it were to be era-ified... Guns instead of arrows, Era-themed melees (broken bottle, night stick, etc.), and medic packs instead of food.

Take it as the 19th-20th century.
Melee would be a hunting knife, not a sword. And medic packs? Hmm, I'd rather keep it food. Take it as a story line, zombies invaded the city, and you guys ran away trying to survive in the forest during a zombie apocalypse. Added a small story line, lol. |

This sounds truly badass, is it just a concept now or has it started scripting development? I really love how it uses it's own weapons and stuff, so it isn't pay2win like the rest of Era. IMO there should be rewards based on how many people are left when you die, for example if 300 players are playing and you are the 100th remaining, you might get a couple hundred gralats, if you're 10th remaining you might get an ec or something, and last remaining gets several ec. It sounds like it could be considered an "epic event" due to how potentially large scale it can be and in depth. better yet, make a score system with rewards according to how well you did: You get more points based on what # remaining you are You get points for killing other players(to discourage stagnant passive play where people just hide forever till like 10 are left) maybe points for side objectives as well. Also, make it a huge map so that it supports hundreds of players, I hate how hard it is to get into an event. Additionally, I prefer a score based reward system so that people who do well but do not win still get rewarded in some way, but those who win or do extremely well get the best rewards. I personally don't mind the theme, but please keep it equalized where everyone has the same weapons(well besides picking a class) also, make it ffa. IMO it works much better this way then a team based event. |

For example, I played ctf the other day on PC Era. You only got ec rewards if you're alive when your team wins, so I would just sit back and let my team do the work to ensure that I got rewards. Even if they make it so that you get rewards if you're dead and your team wins, it would feel akward dieing early on and just waiting around for a good 15 minutes or more wondering if your team is going to win. As a free for all I feel like it would be a nice challenge to build up on your own somewhere, and try to last the longest. It would have to be a huge map so that it isn't a giant LMS. It should also reward you based on how long you last and how much you kill, to ensure that your get rewarded for doing well even if you're not the final winner. |
