Limiting Ammo

You guys keep arguing, it doesn't matter if you want it or not.

Overall it is Sams decision.

That's honestly just a silly statement. If you think people will leave for the removal of unlimited ammo- something this game didn't have on release before unlimited was added then honestly it just mean the people who are left will be the reasonable ones and good riddance to those who are unwilling to accept something they know is a stupid mechanic for ANY game to have

The people that want era to stay in this format, with P2W rewarding you heavily, and wanting to have a huge advantage over new players are the people that are holding the game back. Nobody new is joining and staying because the game is so unfair for new players.

Just look at how few people still base/ spar. Basing is just the same few gangs and people, bases are rarely attacked with the exception of the occasional gang war and never more than a handful of peopLe. Competitive sparring is nonexistent outside of complex, and even then it's only 2-3 rooms occupied.

Era is a game focused around those aspects, yet currently it's split between basing, sparring and pking as 1/3 with the other 2/3s filled by traders and afk/social players who don't touch the combat.
Eras combat system has not changed yet the decline in people participating in it proves that it's because it has become stale and is too unfair towards new players who are the majority of the player base

Make gralats easier to get if you want unlimited ammo to be removed

Easier and faster

No the reason of the decline is due to real life, some many people quit this game because they wanna focus on their future or whatever.
It isn't due to "wanting to have a huge advantage over new players are the people that are holding the game back."

We have been looking forward to so many things over the years but it hasn't been added or fixed. If you would like me to list them all I will.

You don't understand what you quoted from me. I'm not saying that's the reason the player base is declining, I'm sayings it's the reason why no NEW PEOPLE are staying. And the small amount that do rarely stay for the combat aspect and just go straight to trading or start afk/social

So this idea is good. If countryside is gonna get released, the current gmap would be like a playground for noobs, barely any "pros" would be there, so noobs will join and stay, should aswell teach noobs how to make pizzas instead of picking flowers. Nowadays, people use their minigun which stacks on you because they know their ammo isnt gonna end, this idea could prevent them from thinking that, so that they will think twice before using their ammo

Actually from what I've seen their are about 120-130 new players that I have added to my friends list (on 2 accounts combined)and they have been active because I have been giving them my extra melees/food/ammo/sellable items/knowledge to keep them continuously playing. That may/may not mean anything to you but if you give them something they will be intrested the next time they log on and they will ant to stay on a long time.

Oh lol fair guy don't talk about fair please just don't when u dont want to block the explosives mode in neo base from your gun .

And lol unlimited ammo when it gets removed it will fix all this issues u listed up it seems like your out of words or something so u decided to list non sense problems.

Hence it wont be fair for new players reason 1 , old players had unlimited ammo and then ammo became limited, reason 2 ammo will coast gralats which will make it more harder for new players and even old players they will have to buy ammo from shops with gralats so tell me from where a new player would get money for ammo after he buys a gun? , reason 3 gralats this days is hard to be earned even with all this jobs in era still its hard i use to make 2-3years ago 20k a day mushrooms was everywhere and tho trash etc now I barely find mush and when i find it its like 2-4 people getting it honestly talking about my self i take like 12h or more to get 7500 even after i sell my body parts and i work pizza for it coz i tried working mush / trash before i never made it it was like wasting time not like before i could make 5k -6k gralats in 4-6h .

I think I said this before but a neat idea would be to announce that you are testing this new mechanic for a set week and then when the test is over, make another thread with a poll to keep or remove this new mechanic and announce that in the game. This would allow the general Era population to give their opinion and if they like it, keep it in the game, if they don't, that's the end of it.

I prefer simplicity.

But I'm willing to give it a try.

Great, one-sided, subjective opinion. But that's about it.

Era is everything a player makes out of it - some only play this game to socialize.
So you're essentially decreasing and limiting the amount of ammo someone can use in order to make it harder for older players to have a substantial advantage over new players?

You can count non-existing opinions, tell yourself it's better, but in reality an actual poll would show how the players truly feel about such an update. Before that, I suggest staying away from even working on it because to my knowledge, most of our players would not enjoy it.

Yes and if there were such a poll then it should be announced in-game so EVERYONE gets a chance to vote.
I know my 7 pk gangs will be in the negative for this.

This is a new mechanic that would take a bit of scripting/ graphics. Theres no point going to all that effort just as a trial for people to say no thanks and have it go to waste

I'm not really sure if you're even reading the responses i'm giving you because you never seem to acknowledge the fact that i've addressed what you keep saying.

Yes players have the choice to do anything, but when the main aspect, that the game is revolved around only takes up 1/3 of the activities the majority of players partake in then you know that there is some kind of an issue.
