Gangs

[Jay]

Darius' recent post in the CSI section about LVP dying off and a lot of people moving to littlewhiteys has actually made me realize the more I think about it. Gangs is the future. If gangs have a lot of things to do, they will stay at a server. The reason I think Littlewhiteys is so popular is because of the turfs wars, something which is a big aspect on gangs.

We need some gang related suggestions, and I think this should be put at much higher priority that planned. We do have plans for gangs already, which include:

• Fightclub system. Popular aspect for gangs in LVP, Features include professional, disturbance-free 1on1 fights, with a countdown, options to spectate, and place bets. Two fightclub modes: 1on1 Duel and tournament mode. Tournament mode will be announced at the server with the possibility for anybody to sign up. After which, a textdraw menu-like will appear with the people who have signed up, fighting eachother. The winner of each fight moves to the next round, whilst the looser then goes into spectate mode. As the rounds go on, players will get knocked out, and it will eventually come to a final. Winner gets something like $50,000 or something.
  
• Gang improvements: Kills/Deaths/Ratio measurement - Displayed in /gang info. Possibility to change fellow gang members status, being leader or member. Gang weapons. Leaders can purchase one spawn weapon for there fellow gang members, at a high price offcourse.
  
• Possible additional gang bases added, more info can be found here.
  

If you have anything you wish to add, any comments, or any suggestions related to gangs, please either reply here or make a new topic! We need lvp to fill up.

I don't like the idea of gang turf all over LV -- however 'turfed' bases would definitely be an option.

What I was thinking just then though was some kind of league -- everyone signs up at a certain place (so not a command, they actually have to travel for once), and then are entered into a league which lasts say a day, or something long term. Then, you can fight others -- say 5 or 10 (whatever) matches for everyone to play against eachother, then the winner is the person with the most amount of wins? And if it's a draw, you could have some epic final.

A note with the tournament though: admin-only activation?

Care to elaborate?

Well what if gang turfs where only visible for gang members?

Anyway, na I don't think it should be admin-only, meh dunno.

That's what I thought


normal players could get some sort of message though like: "Watch out! This is ColdThugz turf"
so they know they are in gang teritory and have a chance of being killed.

How about a new or additional gangbase? The castle at the strip is just nice imo. There are towers you can climb (-> better than the laggy tower at the gangbase) and the ammonation is pretty near to it. It also is on the strip, where most of the fights take place these days.

Some extras:
An interior exclusively for the owning gang of the gangbase.
What's in it? Some pickups and a room to chill. (teleport would have to be disabled)


Also maybe something like a border or a marked area that disables teleporting and diving on this place to keep it fair.

.. Everywhere would be controlled by DMing -- sucks! If something is going to control LV, it should be roleplay. DM should then work inside RP, so that RPers see the DMers as a role in their little RP world, however the DMers can still shoot (and fuck) everything that moves.
