20100611 One Click Ruin

VVV RPMBG 23:43, 11 June 2010 (BST)


Suggestion type
Mechanics simplification.


Suggestion scope
Zombies.


Suggestion description
Currently, when a skilled zombie is in a building clear of survivors, he has the option to ransack it. This is how it goes:

You ransack the building. [You gain one XP]
You ransack further rooms of the building.
You ransack further rooms of the building.
You ransack further rooms of the building.
You ransack further rooms of the building.
You ransack further rooms of the building. The building is now ruined.

It costs a total of 6AP, grants one XP (on the first ransack) and, getting to the point of the suggestion, requires you to click six times, using six of your IP hits and thus slightly slowing the server. I propose that the last 4 ransacks be scrapped, and the ruin cost 5AP. Thus, it would look like this:

You ransack the building. [You gain one XP]
You ransack further rooms of the building. The building is now ruined. [Costs 5 AP]

Prior to the first ransack, you would see the same option: Ransack Building However, once you click it, you won't have the option to ransack again, but instead you can: Ruin Building (5 AP) Thus, the server is under less stress, you needn't worry quite as much about your IP hits, you can still choose between getting that one XP and taking down the building, and zombies are given a slight boost from the ability to go into negative AP in order to finish the job.

  6. Keep - Alternatively it can remain the same but get XP for each hit to ruin, to share the wealth. -- 01:22, 12 June 2010 (BST)

Kill Votes

  1. Kill If we were going to do this, why have just plain ransacking at all? Not that it's a bad idea, but it makes ransacking kind of pointless. Just cut to the chase and make it a straight ruin. -- User:Jordan Salafack » JS talk contribs » 12:33, 23 June 2010 (BST)
