"Family" Gangs and other ideas
Family Gangs
Hey everyone, haven't made a future improvements thread in a while.
My idea is to implement "Family Gangs". These Gangs would cost 4000$ to create, and would be able to hold 250 Players.
I know what you're thinking:
1. "Lol wtf 250 people taking on a base that's retarded"
2. "Gang chat would get so out of control lmao"
Worry not, I've thought about everything.
1. Family Gangs would not be allowed to enter bases, this is obviously to prevent over 250 people from taking over bases, or worse, spam and block people. Same goes for fort events.
The principal purpose of these gangs is to Roleplay as Crime families, which has become fairly popular on Era as of recently.
2. Family Gangs would have different chat rooms that could be restricted to certain ranks. For example, there's one chat room for the gang's Leader and other rank 5s, one for rank 4-3s, and one for Everyone.
You could mute these different chat channels if you so please, and you could also manage the different requirements for each channel if you're the gang's Leader.
Another idea for these chat channels would be announcements, think of these as sticky posts on forums that would advise every gang member of something every time they log on. (Ex: Take over XXXXX's Gang!)
Think of these as private gang news that only gang members could see.
Another possible idea I've thought of is the addition of a "Declare War" function, with a possible gralat reward for the winner.
Basically, a family gang could declare war on a rival family gang for territory, which would be a HQ building on the gmap (probably around 10-12 of them). These little Headquarters would be non-pk zones that only the members of the family gang that owns it could enter. If a rival gang declares war, and the other family gang accepts, for 30 minutes on the gmap, whichever gang kills members of the other gang the most gets control of the Headquarters building.
There would be a 24 hour cooldown for participating in a war, which should help Era not turning into a complete madhouse.
What do you guys think? Do you have other ideas that are worth adding?
As always, thanks for reading.
