This is an idea that I had earlier today so I did some work on it and thought i'd share it here for feedback!
This is more than the 'Shooting out of cars' idea that has been suggested MANY times.
Repair Shops, common in games such as Grand Theft Auto could be located around the iEra Map.
Car Damage
Instead of driving around and being hurt by bullets it could be the actual car itself thats damage gets lowered. Once all of the damage from the car is gone your car will be 'destroyed' and you will have to go into a Repair Shop and pay to have your car revived.
Crashing into walls & other cars will also lower the HP of your car.
If the car is destroyed it will blow up and you will be killed also + a 5 second green gas effect as you are dazed from the explosion.
CAR UPGRADES
-Customize the color
-Speed Upgrades -Accelerate faster (wears out after a certain period of time or if the car is destroyed)
-Break Upgrades -When you're not holding down the accelerate the car will stop quicker (wears out after a certain period of time or if the car is destroyed)
- +100% Armor -Adds 100% more HP to the car. (You will have to re-purchase if the car is destroyed)
- +50% Armor -Adds 50% more HP to the car. (You will have to re-purchase if the car is destroyed)
- +25% Armor -Adds 25% more HP to the car (You will have to re-purchase if the car is destroyed)
-Drifting - You would be able to press a new button to activate 'drift mode' (Lasts forever) (expencive)
