Duel Bet Npc

[Shankie]

i think it would be cool if there was a npc that we bet 5 coupons or so and get warp into arena and who ever win, win the coupons they bet on kind of like a 1 on 1 duel or could be up to 1-20 people i dont no might be cool, only a suggestion so what you guys think o.O

[Nick]

what if somebody d/c's, lagspikes, etc. etc.?

meh if you wanna bet on something do it privately.

[Shankie]

lol only a suggestion

[Ophelia]

This could cause some difficulties like Nick mentioned above me.

[Kusanagi]

meh thats theyre problem xD, besides if you bet you did it, you wont bet if you are having lag at those moments, you will only bet if you know you are on equal ground to your rival.

Also this would need to be made only as for 1 on 1 duels... still I cant figure out a way to code that the way u want it =/ (the winner have to reclaim the bet and how the hell do an NPC know who is the winner).

yes it is their problem but you know they are gonna complain as much as they can, neverending tickets/forum posts etcetcc. and wtf, lag can come unexpectedly. noone can predict d/c either.

I agree.

Indeed a nice idea .

If someone fears the lag/dcs , he/she wont be using the npc , otherwise its a real nice thing .

[Devotion]

This suggestion has merit. The idea would have to be tweaked to make it work. From my understand, each player bets an equal amount of coupons to the NPC. What happens if one player disconnects. Does the other player lose his coupons too? Also, could multiple players bet but not fight? And winner take all?

This might be possible to do, so refine your suggestion and we'll see what we can do.

Ideas:

the npc ask for the ammount of qpons u want to bet, it takes the qpons from your inventory and the challenger pays the same value of qpons that u did.

In case 1 of the two players get D/C'ed the npc returns the qpons to each owner (thats a good idea if all of the players were honest) but i prefer that if 1 of the two players get D/C'ed the remaining player gets the price (like its been said before there will be a lot of people complaining about this but if u bet its cuz u know u can last till the end and give a good fight)

Another thing is that the npc could ask u the ammount of qpons u wanna bet, it means that for example i bet [GM]Devotion that i can beat him on fight "Example OK?" so i put the ammount of qpons i bet and if Devotion accept the challenge he also accepts the ammount of qpons i say. It means both players bet the same ammount of qpons.

[Devotion]

There would need to be a way to ensure the coupons are removed from each player at the same time, so that, if one player decides to pull out, the other loses their coupons. Or, if one player pulls out of the match, the other's coupons are returned to him. I frankly prefer the first option, since I foresee many annoying bails.

Another feature we could add is more than one private duelling arena to reduce the waiting time on matches.

[Groxy Drank]

I agree with u Devotion. And about the duelling arenas u could use the pvp rooms just like pvp_n_8-5 and all those rooms for a private room for each bet. The npc could send each duellers to a ramdom pvp room so they dont complain about the use of only 1 of the rooms.

But is there a way to make for example like a deal "i request deal put the items or whatever im going to trade and if i log off without hitting trade the items return to my inventory and so do the other persons items?"

That could be a way to solve the bet and log off problem but thats just at the time u speak with the npc i still dont know what to do when u are already duelling and get D/Ced.

After a few mins thinking i came up with this idea:

when the 2 players are already in the arena ready to fight maybe if its possible the npc saves the ammount of qpons each player bet and also saves like an ID or Code for the account and in case 1 of the player get D/Ced the remaining player gets the ammount of qpons he/she bet and when the other player gets back Online clicks the npc and the npc returns the qpons back.

Thats my suggestion hope u understand it clearly.

[Devotion]

I don't know if the coupon return is possible. And while it would be fantastic to have, I've no idea what kind of demands it would place on the server. People could potentially leave their coupons in there for weeks. If it's possible to get coupons back in case of a DC, then I suggest a limit on how long you can wait to regain your coupons until they disappear.

Also, we might need two NPC's, one who organizes the duel, and one who gives back any lost coupons.

[Groxy Drank]

i think that the qpons return npc could be like the vote redeemer npc it gives the vote qpons even months after u voted and also saves it for u, but i agree with the time range to get the qpons back cuz ppl could start to use the npc as a kind of personal bank.

well thats just if the qpons return npc is possible to be implemented on game.

[helios_eclipse]

or, people could bet on each fighters...it could be like an event or something. idk. lets say a fight between Rangdyrok and Devotion, you can bc for it like how the endless tower is everytime you can go in, something like, "Devotion has accepted Rangdyrok's challenge, the "betting" npc is now open to place your bets"(or w/e)

you can do like, if you bet 1, if the player you're betting on wins, you get 2, just double that amount. or maybe 1:2...idk.... x3 :blush:

--- edit ---

but then again, when i think about it, it'll be hard eyh?

OH NO I'M LOSING -cuts comp off- Opps i got d/ced

/no1

[Devotion]

Yes, well, if we didn't have a fail safe in place for the people who actually do DC, then a lot of players will lose coupons. If you have a better option we're listening.

[» Pat]

mes "[Duel Bet NPC]";
mes "Remember that you cannot retrieve";
mes "any coupons that are being lost due to";
mes "disconnects, whatsoever.";
next;
menu "k.",_yes,"gtfo den",_nah;

fix'd.

[Devotion]

Doesn't mean there would be no complaints. Every time you login there is a warning against BC abuse, but that doesn't seem to help. But since there would be nothing we (GM team) could do for the players if they lose their coupons, complaining about it when it happens won't change their predicament. What I'm saying is, if Genesis can make this NPC with a coupon return policy, great. And if he can't it's still a great idea that can still be implemented.

[Groxy Drank]

U know there will be always a problem about people complaining by several things they find as a problem that the (GM Team) have to fix in game, if there were a patch to fix the people complaining problem im sure it would be already implemented on game LOL.

After that i still find this a great idea for the server and the comunity so people bring your ideas for this suggestion and lets make it work together we can make it.

[Hated]

I like the idea xD and we could have a ranks every 15 wins you go up a rank have ND and a Donation that way a Novice player isn't put up agents a pro ^^ may be a bit difficult for a week or 2 but after a wile people will level out. and maybe after 150 wins you get a little prize or something

[Groxy Drank]

Hm the prize stuff is a good idea but before we talk about prize we got to make this work.

[Tempest Kin]

What about having people designed to judge it? Like instead of programming a person to do it, have a people in charge of doing it? I mean it limits it a bit more, but takes out the error of computers.

[Hated]

I Could program it and everything but eh im lazy XD
