Changing Timing of Kits in Survival Games

Post by Joyman533 » Sat Mar 21, 2015 7:51 pm

So, I was having a discussion with a certain person, and he mentioned the following issues with the current kit system in sg:

-He has played many games and yet has gotten 2 kills; getting 100 for an iron sword is very slow.
-Almost always, he dies to a person with an iron sword kit.
-There is no way to get anything close to an iron sword without the kit.*
*My thoughts: Holy swords are obtainable and used to be better than iron swords. Maybe re-upp them?
-Back when SG first was introduced, almost nobody had the kit and it was better.

My suggestion after thinking about this is to change the kits from 1 minute to 1 minute and 30 seconds. This would allow more time for fair fights, and by a minute and a half people are usually already dispersed.

Suggestions/comments?

Please donate rails, stonebricks, and gold ores to the hopper at /warp TheSC. We need many of those in order to build the railroad network in Greycliff.

And you would still get them, just a bit later. This would give people without the kit a fair chance.

It's a bad idea just because some people are bad at sg and complain.

No, it gives people a bit more time that is necessary to obtain resources in order to have a fighting chance. One minute is clearly not enough time to gather the sufficient amount of resources needed for that. Merely extending the amount of time for availability would balance things a bit more.

Making the time to a little longer I wouldnt have a problem with. On the ice map, there is a definite way of getting an iron sword, I think there may be a single place on the greenhill map.

Most people don't know about these, for example, I didn't even know that there is an iron sword on the ice map. :?

On the greenhill map, only teams can get it legitimately which makes the team even more OP. To get it without another person, you need to molest a sheep, and most people don't want to do that.
