I have a couple of ideas how to take this out, but is there anyone around who can maybe make it happend, would benefit alot! :)
The whole system evolves around the players who kill others.
For this to work what will be needed is a new trader, and maybe some new items.
Trader: You can talk with him, put a bounty on someones head, collect bounties, or buy bounty hunter items. New items: Dog Tags: This is the first item that is needed. How this works is: If a player kills someone else, he will drop his dog- tags, but if killed by a Zombie or an AI it wont drop.
That makes dog tags able to tell who killed who, then if there is a bounty on a persons head, you can return that persons dog tags to the bounty trader, and recieve your reward (the bounty amount that is on the head of the person)
The person who killed the individual with the bounty can collect the reward, but if he himself is killed while on the way to the bounty trader, the dog tags of the bountied person can be picked up, and returned by their "new owner" - However, efter the person who holds the dog tags dies to a Zombie or an AI then the dog tags will dissapear and bounty remain on the head of the bountied player.
Item's at the trader: If you kill several bountied players (4-6), without killing an "innocent" you will be rewarded access to the traders armory, (For cash of course) - Where low, medium, and very few high caliber can be bought for gold.
You can either make a bounty on someones head, or it will come eventually if he kills enought people.
Putting a bounty on someone: If you put a bounty on someones head, you will need to pay the trader money, the bounty put on the player, is half of the amount payed to the trader.
Paying the trader 10oz gold = Player 5oz gold bounty. BUT! If the person you want to put a bounty on is already wanted, then the bounty rises with the amount you put on him.
(Example. He already has a bounty of 5oz gold, you pay trader 10oz gold, and now his bounty has risen to 10oz gold, because he already had a bounty of a certain amount)
Naturally wanted: A naturally wanted person is a person wanted because he killed other players.
After someone has killed 3 players, without dying to a another player, (as said, zombies and AI does not count!)
- He recieves a bounty of 5oz gold, and will rise with 5 for every player he kills from here on and out, until bounty is collected! If a person while having 2 kills on his head, dies to another player, those two kills are erased!
- BUT! - If the bounty is awarded on his head, it wont be removed until someone has collected his dogtags and taken them to the bounty trader!
I hope you liked the idea, and i hope someone can make this happend, i think the idea is great myself (but ya, don't we all when we come up with ideas?) - If you have ideas on how to improve please let me know. I would like to see the bounty system come online since it would enchance the way people think before killing someone, and actually give a worth to heroes, who normaly does not kill other players!
