Era needs change

natey_440 · #1 11-11-2008, 10:04 AM

Era needs good change, and we all need to give ideas to them to see what they think would make Era better.

Raeiphon · #2 11-11-2008, 12:08 PM

Open economy and balanced guns would be a start (COUGH ICARUS COUGH)

You can blame Icarus for showing up and making me ragequit while I was coding the stockmarket system. I wonder if the class is still there..

natey_440 · #3 11-11-2008, 12:30 PM

Era is going down-hill..

I havn't been on to play (not allowed?), but a bunch of people would rather die than to be on Era..

C'mon guys, bring some of the old stuff back! The stuff we all loved, the stuff that wasn't so lame.. How the AK was like the best gun you could get, how you could buy gangs for like 40k.. Bring back PT selling M4/Famas, damn Era!

Reset! Era would own if it went back to the state Delph or Chrisz left it in.. Just updated.. alot, don't upload the *** guns leave the speed off.. Make it true skill..

These are peoples opinions, state yours!

Wait, you're tying Jenn's Era with Chrisz's Era as if it were one in itself?

Regardless...

...he makes a good point. It has been seen as an update to release a new business and guns. As a result, pointless weapons with not so sensible stats have been made. The rare guns shouldn't be worth more as far as their stats go, but rather more because of their rarity.

Yea guys give Meditech a chance.

eagle4 · #14 11-11-2008, 08:25 PM

Don't bring up Jenn Era. It would seem nice on pen and paper but really it doesn't give any gangs their characteristics, that's the problem with Era's gangs right now.

Edit: Omitted stuff, mistook Vulcan for Smu's actions. Smu is more like unixmad but way more immature and spouts psuedointellectual crap, while Vulcan is more like Stefan with a bad temper.

Change can't happen overnight. With Andy gone, the speed at which we can develop new things greatly diminished, but trust me...we're working on it.

Seriously, even though Frankie and I are not on good terms. I think he could do better than any other Manager. Excluding Delph, and Chrisz

Everything needs to be changed, not just simple stuff. Stuff that will attract people, but not 500+ guns running around that kill you in three hits.

I just hate to see Era fail.

What 500 guns can kill you in three hits?

natey_440 · #19 11-11-2008, 11:12 PM

Its an expression, you all know what I mean.

If you like Era the way it is your a noob, and I would clearly flawless you with an AK.

natey_440 · #20 11-11-2008, 11:15 PM

"back when the best gun to get was a famas or even when the m4 was released the game was alot more fun and skill then who can be more mindless as getting speed levels and guns. For years now era has just been that if some1 has alot of money they are auto-pro because holding D wins battles. Era has been loosing player count the more these cheap guns and speed levels have been released but none of the staff that can fix this have noticed it i guess. I know alot of players who have friends that WANT to play era, but just don't enjoy it anymore. I used to say i had at least 5 people i could have brought back once era was fixed that wanted to play but at this point most of em gave up hope. It should go without saying that bringing era back to what it was when people only spoke good of it is a good idea...." -Tons3r

Very few people like Era in its current state, which is why the entire staff team is working on alot of very major projects, most of which aren't things that can be finished within a few days or weeks even. Give us some time, sheesh.

This is one of the next things on my to-do list. I've spoken to Mange about reinstating Section 31 as an official police force.

It's easy to not get scammed...you use the trade systems. If they say they can't do that then too bad. Anything that sounds too good to be true is--especially on Era.

I looked back at my thread where I announced my departure. october 6th. it is now november 11th. that's not overnight at all. it's been a bit over a month and I haven't really seen anything big being announced. when I asked for the updates that are being talked about, all I got was "halloween event"

lol

Era was lacking an administration for far longer than when you announced your departure...we had to wait for Globals to make their decisions.

And seriously...you had a chance to do something, you were the Server Admin. Don't give me the "I wasn't Manager so I couldn't do everything I wanted" excuse because Era doesn't even have a Manager right now, either.

Back on topic...change will come, just be a little more patient.

natey_440 · #27 11-12-2008, 02:00 AM

We have been waiting for what? 3 years for something good to happen?

I am banned, so I don't log on anyways. Just trying to help all my old friends out.

DarkRenji · #28 11-12-2008, 02:31 AM

police sounds good and all, but how do you plan to pull this off x.X
police cant just go around killing innocent people they see, so the people there cant pk?

OMG we wont kill innocent people... though if they have a gun and they're pointing at us shoudnt we "react" and fight them/handcuff them?=P

of course, systems could develop( this will involve scripting though :s)

natey_440 · #30 11-12-2008, 03:04 AM

S31 would be a good thing to bring back.

S31 members don't go around PKing they are LIKE GP's just without RC/Warp.. Police Force PKing is retarded, how do you know who started shooting?

S31 would be a good start, then maybe delete some guns. Reset?

Then maybe I can talk with a high admin that still likes me? lol

Nabru · #31 11-12-2008, 03:12 AM

I read this thread as "Era needs a clone."

Trusted people.. Something that Era doesn't have now.

Other than Meph and a few others.

Nataxo · #37 11-12-2008, 03:52 AM

just because there's no administration does not mean stuff couldn't be done. for the longest time, era staff usually did stuff on their own without being told. I did that pretty much the whole time I was staff under TSA (and even Daz for a short while)

unless globals specifically told you to hold development until administration was put into place. if that's the case, it only makes the globals look that much more retarded because there's no excuse to halt development.

DazJenova · #40 11-12-2008, 02:07 PM

I acually told you what projects needed complete but you were too busy playing WoW with Icarus or you just lost interest in the game.
