Shared Durden Spawns Started by: Liga on Nov 17, '15 11:48

Good morning everyone,

I have been thinking about this for a while now and could not find this suggestion in any of the existing threads. If this has been suggested before, please ignore me.

For buying jails, there is the opportunity to pay 0.25 credits and as soon as the total paid by players reaches 1 credit the jail goes up. I was wondering why this is not an option for Durden spawns. Durdens are basically a public good, which would make it only just if everybody chipped in a little rather than one player buying them for everybody.

Of course there need to be criteria that decide after how many credits put in the Durdens actually spawn. I suggest this being dependant on the person who starts the "collection". It would look something like this: "Collective Durden Spawn started by blabla - Aiming at 1000 Durdens - 5/170 Credits are currently in the pool"

I can only think of pros for this suggestion. If however someone can come up with any cons, please share them here.

Report Post Tip

One of the cons is that if you put into the spawn, you want to be around for it (or semi control when it happens so you have an open timer)

 

I don't think many people would commit to a spawn if they cant control when it launches or at least have a known time when it will.  I think its still better off being a manual thing.  And as a side note, Tylers should be spawned for celebrations and events, not necessarily become a 24/7 thing. 

Report Post Tip

I agree that Durds shouldn't be a constant stream of kills, but suggestions like these will likely become more common. As far as I can tell (and I could be wrong here), there were ~65 RIA/IAs for November 17th (and that includes UEs that were DDed).

So things must have slowed down, right? Wrong. The Obituaries are packed for four pages back with MIAs (and RIAs sprinkled in) just since Nov 17 00:00. This Durd spawn takes up about 1/2 of the first page, so I'll say there's about 350 kills for Nov 17th. You know what, let's even shave that back to 300, just for a round number for the day. And that doesn't include the MIAs that will be spawned after these durds.

That means 80% of all kills for today are from MIAs. It can't really be that surprising that players are looking for some variety. I mean, this suggestion isn't even asking for more targets per se, just some diversity in how players pay for kills.
