Here are some ideas I have for GraalOnline Era. I know that some of them may be far fetched but I think that they will make the game a lot more fun enjoy.
Quests or Missions:
1) Bank Robbery: The bank is kind of a desolate location. Have a mission guy (similar to the ones that instruct you to drive people around) tell you to get a group of 2-3 friends and shoot down NPC's with guns. To have it organized, have the mission guy give you a tag set just for event (kind of like the red/blue team tags) and with that tag you can recruit friends temporarily to that gang to help you with the mission. The NPC's should be all equipped with either guns or gas to make it more challenging, and dressed as cops for the sake of the gangster theme. The objective is to reach the safe alive, hold down the safe as you "collect the money" (sort of like king of the hill maybe?) then make your way back to the entrance.
2) Police Chase: I think this would be a fun thing to have in SouthRidge seeing as it is barely used and it has the jail there. In the jail there should be a mission guy (like the one stated above) but your mission is to pick up a guy and escape the cops in a car chase. In fact this can be a sentimental part 2 of the Bank Robbery idea where you play the get away driver after your men steal the loot. I know having like 50 players doing the cop car chase at once would create massive lag if it were to take place on the normal map, so maybe there should be a separate place all together to do this mission.
Ideas:
3) Racing: I always see people at the bridge challenging people to a race, so why not make a race track? Also, make the cars have varying speeds, handling and acceleration. Possibly even do a Go-Kart thing in which you can rent out a Go-Kart and race at the speedway. I have seen some Go-Karts made for era already so I am not sure if this is already in production or not.
4) Zombies!: Sorry, I just had to do it. But it seems every game that has a Zombie side game *cough*Call Of Duty*cough* has always been fun. This isn't as much of a mission as it is a optional thing for a hat or something. In fact you could replace the rabbits in the Nuclear Factory with Zombie NPC's and the objective remains the same. Fight your way through, get a hat. Or as another option have it like last man standing where in the events (the generator not the event house) you can make it like last man standing. Start with one Zombie NPC and the objective is to avoid it. As soon as it makes contact with someone, they become a zombie and now their objective is to get someone else. This process continues till there is one human left.
5) Hunter: I have created this event myself while I was entertaining my gang. I would tell everyone that once I went off tag, the first person to kill me would get shells or a prize of some sort. Naturally this cannot just be made into an event unless you have a NPC run around and the first person to kill it wins, so i was thinking you should get paid for ending peoples streaks. Kind of like a bounty hunter. The higher the streak the more money you get. This will make streaking a lot more challenging and fun with people chasing after you.
6) Capture the Flag(CTF): Self explanatory. Classic has it, PC has it, we need it too!
7) Food Market: Sell some food! Nachos, Slurpee's, Corn dogs, Doughnuts, ANYTHING! I can help with the GFX portion if you need it.
8) Pets: Lol. I don't know why but this seems like a good idea to me. Make an animal shelter and you can buy a snake, dog, cat or whatever. It is like a furniture item and it roams around your house or in whatever room you put it in. You have to buy it food and stuff or else it dies and take it outside to go potty. You should also be able to do mini games with your pets like fetch or just mess around with it xD
9) New base. I see you hired Coop as the new LAT. Make a new base in SouthRidge and make it fun. Being the holder of two top ten gangs, I can tell you that I find basing boring now. It is not as fun as it used to be and seems pointless especially when you only get around 1-10 gralats an hour from it. IDK, bring life back to the whole concept!
10) Alien Guns: The lexel rifle is hinting at it, I'd like to see an actual plasma gun or something in the game. I also have a bunch of regular guns that i have made. If you would like to see a sample just ask or watch this clip of the finished product of one on YouTube. (

11) New Furniture: It's been a while since some new furniture has been released and I can't seem to fill my gang house with the current selection.
12) Gang Spar Tournament. We had talked previously about it and you said you liked the idea and that I could help with setting it up. Is that offer still on the table?
Seasonal Ideas:
Winter:
-Snowballs. If you hit someone with one it makes them slower, kind of like the slow gas and water balloons mixed.
-Snowball Fight event. If you get hit you're out. last man in wins.
-Snow blaster: New gun that shoots snow. Kind of like the water gun.
Fall:
-Halloween Costume Contest: Players submit a shield, head and body of their own creation that goes together and other players vote on which one looks the coolest or more scary.
Spring:
-Flowers sell for more at the shop.
Summer:
-Shells sell for more at the shop.
As I said, these are just a few ideas i have. Please take into consideration any of them as I think they will make the game more fun for everyone

This was an Email I sent SNK and a post I made in the iEra Players group. Wanna add to it?
~Additions~
-Was aimlessly walking around Era when I came upon the Flipper shop. I thought to myself, "How pointless". I propose a bit of an underwater world. This may sound strange but bear with me. In the underwater world, it would have a series of shops with hats that are like snorkels, goggles and other swimming stuff. Also a furniture shop with beach furniture and maybe even (this is random) an underwater gun. Now the underwater gun is going somewhere. I also propose an underwater base >
this would give people more reason to buy the flippers and a new exciting base to take. would also bring use to the underwater gun xP Lol this is a bit far-fetched but I'd like to see more of a reason to dive underwater than just to get a jump rope.
