Away with the flags and names

[swacko]

you heard me. I Thought that instead of having flags, the RP could have clothing or other types of insignias that represented the faction you are in that will be delivered to you when you join. This would mean that you could disguise yourself as another faction-member(loot their clothing by killing them or something, and the clothing stays in your inventory for a limited time), and if you are a member of a faction that is hostile with another, you could disguise as a peasant to avoid them for a while.
As for the names, I'm not saying that i want them to be removed completely.
What i want is, that instead of your name being showed to everyone, you would have to use a command like /givename while pointing at a player, so that only that player can see your name.
This would open up for some cool RP in my opinion.

I like the Idea but the hours of codeing it would have be invoved.

[swacko]

some RP servers already have this kind of system

That NO-Name rp sucks...

[swacko]

i didn't mean to have no RP names, i meant u have to give it to a person for them to know it

I like hte name thing, cuts down on meta. The Uniform thing is horrible though, to many minges running around screaming "LOL U DUNNO WUT FACTION IM IN" and then killing you when you turn around.

[swacko]

hmm...yeah, maybe u have a point there judas. But put it this way: how many minges would get into a serious faction?

[Jarlhyttel]

Name thing good. Uniform nooooo

[swacko]

heh ok then drop the uniform ;)
what i actually want is that you can move around without always having to watch your back for enemy factions by for example using the peasant flag and them not knowing your name.

I mean, you cant have a character being neutral AND hostile at the same time?
If you know the player is in an enemy faction but wearing the peasant flag, you should be able to kill him, right? at least that's what i think, so this is where the "name thing" comes in.

But the "name thing" could also make the RP itself more efficient. Like if you wanted to find someone who is in hiding, you would actually have to gather information, and not just run around the map looking in random places.

Support on No Flags

But keep the names

[Nikolaz72]

Right I dont think you should Delete all the flag's. I Mean Trader's Need their flag's and Magical user's and Leader's need their flag/ And i dont think the Grim reaper can just run around looking like an Ordinary Farmer. He need's some touch. BTW if someone uses a Farmer flag to get close and kill someone. Isnt that BANABLE? (The Name thing could be surviveable. Though i think we need Uniform's for several reasons)

Farmers are Peasants, they mass in numbers =)
