Lockdowns?

No one likes Lockdowns because really they are a waste of time but ways to improve them would be
1.) Make it so you get 4x ores during it (From AriesGrill)
2.) Make lockdowns longer
3.) Make it so you can’t /logout during a lockdown countdown and if you disconnected or /hub your logger is there you still have to run into spawn

+1 I agree with most of this, i think you still should be able to log out, but if you get a multiplier for the ores you mine most people who logout might stay for the high risk high reward

In my opinion lockdown would be better if its more like casino royale.
Ore drop multiplier (x4)
/warp /storage etc enabled in the countdown.
longer countdown.
Longer event.

That way its high risc high reward / funn event. Also would be less annoying

Yeah for sure, this would be the best way to do it

4x ores doesn’t make much sense to me.
I mean, you could just go into the mine and never get back up, make a bunch of holes so no one can follow through or you are mining so fast with an ultra rare, that it’s impossible to catch up.
If it gets added, only the top most blocks do these, the ones that get exposed to direct sunglight, if the roof above the mine wouldn’t exist.

Its a high rist high reward thing. its not very hard to kill someone who is in a mining set. none of the ultras mine that fast…

But it’s hard, when there are no holes at all at the surface, you could as well just xray towards your prey instead.

So you want lockdowns to be longer? Everyone logs out anyway so you will just be waiting for like 10minutes for nothing to happen lmao. 1Minute is fine

uh, no. people will just warp away if they see a threat
big ol no no

pls be quiet u dont play prison u dont even know what casino royale is which is an event just like the 4x ore drop idea

idk if people will log out if you get 4x drop, literally better than a mb. 1 minute is way too quick. at least make it as long as casino royale to make it fair

Good that we take it out of context now.
The 4x ore drop doesn’t make much sense in lockdown without the danger, just like the gold block event.

no lockdowns are fine the way they are.

you don’t wanna see what can be done with a 4x mining multiplier…

no those people will die 100 %

No they wont

tell me how people with hp robe and bombarda pickaxe and lestrange won’t die to “pvpers” if they stay on. sure they can hide but most likely players will die

Okay well think about the possibility of limiting where this multiplier applies to, maybe have it only active in the warp d1mine. This way the only way of making the money is being where the action is.

well if they’re ‘most likely’ going to die, even with a 4x multiplier its not going to be worth it

I suggest there is a 20 second timer before lockdown starts. 5 seconds to type /logout and 15 seconds for the lockdown to occur. If you are in spawn you can /warp to different areas to look for pvp and if you log out a combat logger spawns (just like in the outisde world). The mining multiplier seems like an interesting idea, however it will be impossible to balance. High level people will stay at the highest mine they can access (to limit the people who can reach them). If it was only at D1 mine, people would continue to mine at the higher mines or log out at it would not be profitable enough for the risk. Most people would not utilise this as players would be risking over $100 million worth of items for a 4x sell bonus at D1 mine
