Thoughts on CityRPGs

[Spikey]

If you killed someone in an alleyway with a knife, the whole server would get the message, and soon you find yourself getting chased down by 10 different people with the wanted system. Vaux is currently working on a mod that would disable the stupid-ass wanted system. Vaux's CRP mod would feature a "witness" mod, and you can only get wanted if someone else witnessed you committing a crime. Here's the link to his development topic: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=239369.0

There should also be an ammo system implemented in City RP's so that you minimize RDM'ing. If you ran out of ammo, you could go and buy some more from a weapons dealer.

The use of more casual jobs would further encourage players to build office buildings/towers, and make the city look more like an actual city, not a small town with poor infrastructure and boxy buildings. Furdle had his GTA V server, which pretty much summed up a normal CRP server, but with lots more RDM'ing and no police.

I think the automatic vending is stupid, especially for weapons. People should only be able to buy things in person, not off an exclamation mark print

It's odd how the server owners call them "City RPG's" when theres very little (If any at all.) roleplaying going on. Sure, you can say you're a cop, or a business owner, but theres no real interaction to back this up, it's all just a bland money-hoarding time-wasting boredom-inducing digital job money getting simulator. unless a server can do it right, I almost never go on a City RPG expecting to have a good time.

Instant gratification is the CityRPG's double-edged sword.

Needless to say, CRPG stands for crap role playing game. Only one I ever enjoyed was bbs239's DCRPG which just gave a new money making method and more job types.

I remember Iban's CityRPG V3. Paychecks were based on if you actually DID YOUR JOB, instead of going afk.
