Woodcutting System Buff
 

You know how wood cutting's pay is inferior to all the rest of the moneymaking ways, but requires more skill? Here's a way that could balance this whole thing out and make woodcutting a decent way to make cash.

Create a rating system that decides how many logs the player gets. This would be a reasonable buff to woodcutting that would help sort out the skilled woodcutters to make more cash from the unskilled ones.
eg 60% of the tree perfect (3 perfects), they get two logs, and 80% perfect of the tree is 3 logs, 100% perfect = perfect log + log (this part is already implemented). I'm pretty sure this can be implemented.

Logs are only worth 6$ a pop in the first place, so cutting a 100 trees only makes about 600$, which takes about 30 minutes to get. This would help speed things up for the skilled people who hit perfects often, and reward them fairly for the good work they do. 3 logs a tree for getting 80% perfect = 18$
This system could reward people for attempting to try to get perfect logs, instead of discouraging them and giving up and buying them street for ludicrous prices (I sell them 250$ each because they're extremely rare).

you don't cut down a tree and get one log in real life, unless you do a really crappy job sawing the tree and screw up like 2/3's of it, which makes perfect sense. so the people who cut down trees well get more logs (higher pay) and the people who do crappy jobs of cutting down trees get less logs (lower pay).

Your input is appreciated...

but will never be implemented

my posts are barely coherent and still somehow eclipse yours
stop posting unless you have anything above a 3rd grader's maturity level to contribute

Just because you do/own something doesn't mean it will be buffed or changed.
Seriously, stop posting trying to make everything better for you. You aren't Jesus incarnate.

If it's inferior to other money making ways.. use those ways? That's common sense.
Woodcutting is buggy as-is, this idea will never be implemented.

Any post past this is just spam.

Spam!!!!!

Hush mode, not everyone enjoys sitting in the mines drilling away 9000 rocks as we do.

An attempt to balance some of the money earning systems would be nice, but I have to agree with Willa that other things are probably on the high staff's minds at the moment.

Don't hush me, I'm right.
And yeah, last I checked they were too busy banning the souls to do anything.

Alfonzo gave perfect logs back and let wood axes be hotkeyed two days ago.
that's step one of balancing woodcutting

Hotkeying wasn't even needed, you were the only one that complained about it.
Not to mention, you used to be able too make like 1.5k in 30 minutes with a chainsaw.

stfu.

you still sawk

alonso used to pay pretty well for my wood ;; )

How was I supposed to obtain a chainsaw when I couldn't access the chainsaw stocker room without 10 perfect logs, when perfect logs weren't obtainable.

If hotkeying wasn't needed, then why do mining and shoveling have hotkeys.

You'd still need a motor, which comes from a car, and cars go from 5-8k, so why spend that extra effort in getting all those supplies, including the perfect logs, when you can get a chainsaw for 5-7k

without that door being open, chainsaws would have become a limited commodity, so i sympathize with what he says.

cars? infinite. woodcutting materials? infinite. but if they hadn't re-enabled perfect logs, there would be less and less chainsaws each day, because no new ones were being made and people (like me, i own 3) would hoard them

Hoarder.

Thats bad juju, may the bad juju god come down and smite you.

i have like 4 drills
wait til era runs out of drills, gents. that's when my time will come again

And you're gonna destroy 3 of the drills in front of everyone's eyes, right?

i cant believe ppl r still talking about buffing or modifying the current working systems...THEYRE ALL FKN BORING NO1 ENJOYS THEM!!!! MAKE EARNING PK BASED, ITS THE ONLY WAY TO RAISE PLAYERCOUNT TOGETHER WITH MAKING MORE ENJOYABLE (BETTER) GUNS

Then you're giving an advantage to good pkers. People have made money doing this stuff long before you started playing, and it wasn't a problem then. That was when Era's playercount was 200+ often, far higher than it is now, and would be even if they added money making by pking.

Last I checked almost every TNT mine has been taken the past week or so when I go to mine. After Courage rocked that **** out and got a Mp5... everyone else is trying it.

That's an opinion.. I turn on a video in my split screen and kind of enjoy mining, lets you forget about everything else :3
You get money for kills already.

Plus you suck at PKing so why would u want that.
Oh now I see that last part, you need even better guns than Mp5 just to pk cause you suck so bad.
Lol!

lol rogue r YOU telling me that i suck? i remember owning/flawing u many times and idk if uve ever even beaten me in a spar

I don't mean to be taking sides... but seriously Rogue, judging by your pk/spar "abilities" if you will, you shouldn't be allowed near a keyboard. Just stop talking in general, in real life as well.

Stop trolling on forums and hop on in the spar arena?
Thought so.

You're just mad because a month ago I flawlessed you, twice, and took your bounty.
Remember? Afterwords you put me on ignore and dressed up like me to say **** in masses. Then you got jailed for harassment.

Or how you spent 20ec on supers/cookies to try and hunt me down in SW base, but you couldn't kill me and lost your bounty again.

Take your pick.

I'm going pick that you're an insecure *****. I'm not mad at anything, I barely participate. I've never been flawlessed by you, in fact I've never lost a spar to you. I do recall being led into Era Hideaway by Smasher, while you were door laming with a Neo Rifle, I had 40 dmg as it is, 1 shot, 1 kill. You're really proud of that accomplishment lol? The whole spending ECs of Cookies/Supers is a made up story, my sewer house is stocked with stuff like that because I share it with 10 other people. I don't understand why you go on this forum and try really hard to impress other players, when in reality no one gives a ****.

You're butthurt that I got Scotland Yard deleted from your dirty little sausage fingers, and you will never let it go.
Sorry bro.

Ololol u mad bro?

I'll have you know I personally got Scotland Yard deleted myself, as Akeon wanted a 'new' gang idea, and promised me leadership of it.
Then I got banned and he revived LC cause he sucked as GBA.

O.o?
Yea, umad.

Actually no, I got SY deleted.
Remember I pm'ed you right before I removed you and all your little friends?
You speak worse than you spar.
It's almost impossible to argue with a child.
Anyway, this is going off topic.
My argument is that you Rogue, are TERRIBLE at everything you try to do.
And I'd like to prove it.

Come in the spar arena, grab an Ak, and we'll see what you can do against my Ak. Fair enough?

im going to type
like my posts are lyrics
era is a horrible server
and i cant believe people argue
about it

obligatory mad

Lol
At
Crono

Katbot, me and Akeon were going to make a new gang.. I was pitching him ideas for days before.
You raged and removed everyone from SY and abused your rights, that hardly counts for deleting it. They were going to remove and jail you for doing that, but I said to just delete it instead and give me the new gang. Remember? You did it more than once and I kept getting re-added. Then after it was deleted you were homeless and I was instantly Co-Leading BB.

Sounds like umad.

If you guys are gonna argue about off topic ****, get the **** off my thread.

I'll get it back on topic, your idea = awful. End of conversation.

Been there, said that.
