Best Posts in Thread: Raise Parkour Prizes

When the server first reset, the parkour prizes made more sense because the amount of money in the economy was a lot less than now.

Now that players have large sums of money (because of voting) it makes sense that the parkour prizes are raised so that more players will want to do parkour again.

Discuss.

 

Not quite.

You could argue that parkour helps the server far more than voting. Parkour is on the server to be fun and challenging, with a variety of courses ranging in difficulty, right? And you need fun to retain players. You need variety to retain players. You need challenges to retain players.

Inflating the economy beyond belief to get a few extra players to join the server is useless if you can't retain those players.

The server can't simply say "Do parkour if you love parkour". Look at the playerbase of the server - it's clear the server needs to change something.

Increasing the prizes of the parkour courses affects the fun and the challenge - I for one would bother doing all of the courses if they paid more, which increases the time I spend on the server.

 

Why limit the ways a player can make money sucessfully if parkour was a viable way in the past?

It doesn’t matter whether we’re towns focused or not towns focused, by leaving parkour to rot we’re loosing another aspect of the server. A lot of players won’t parkour just for the fun it; they want something out of it. I don’t understand why we would leave something the way it is if players can get more out of something else for doing little to nothing.

 

But you should make parkour worth it to the people that don't necessarily look at parkour as just a side task. its a game, it should be fun. Part of making it fun is A. Drawing more players to do it and B. making it worth it enough that players can do something with the prize, even if its not a lot.

 

My comment was not about limiting the players ways of making money. It was more of a reply to

I agree that parkour prizes should be looked at, we have a parkour team and I will direct this to them.
There are a few things that will be looked at, as in this accepted suggestion Reintroduce checkpoint meeble rewards in parkour
