Idk how this is gonna be taken but heres some suggestions I have about OP users that should be taken into consideration for the game.

People have argued that OP health should be removed and its been suggested so much but nothing happens about it so its time to assume that that isn't going to happen so here are some ideas that would help make the game a little more fair while not eliminating them from the game.

1. If and OP users dies, they should not automatically get their health back on another account unless their death was unfair or if they got lagged out, sniped/nuked/one shotted by something random. Though most of those kinds of deaths can probably be appealed and get revived. (Idea number 2 should also reduce any of those instances from occurring.) If and OP user knows their account is about to die and chooses to let themselves die then that is totally fair and on them. They should not get their health back.

2. OP users should not fight in mortal wars, they should be reserved for fighting in crimezone. The only exception to this would be like if someone declared war on a land that is owned by the OP person. Then that user can fight on their op account, but no other op people may join them. OP health people could fight on normal health accounts and hopefully this would help bring back the fighting we all know and love rather than having wars just be sniper and nuke battles.

3. If the OP user has a trial and is executed, they may be able to get their health back if they are forgiven for their crime by Damen and/or other admins.

4. If an OP user does get their health back on another account, the OP health should be set back to normal on their previous account. This way if their account is later revived it does not create more imbalance by having some people with multiple OP health accounts.

All of these ideas can be overridden by crimezone giving the health back and/or the account getting revived. I think these ideas would help reduce the work load on Gamer and it would keep things more fair. It could also potentially phase out OP accounts. This way there would be no quesiton for whether or not a user's health needs to be restored and it would pretty much be up to crimezone to restore it.

I agree. Especially with the second point. OP users in war are the reason the sniper + nuke meta was created. With stuff transferring, it's gotten to the point that it's better than being immortal, you just get your stuff back 30 mins after you die, and you can go right back to whatever war you died in. If stuff can transfer, there should just be like a week-long cooldown.

I say we just kill all the OP users in a big old "Reign of Terror" fashion and then reserve OP health for CZ bosses.

"OP users" shouldn't exist in the first place.

People have said to remove them but Damen isn't going to do that so we need ideas to balance out that fact. Thats what this is about. We need to move beyond the idea of simply eliminating them and to ideas of controlling it to make things more balanced again.

So by crimezone you mean fights with other high health people? Or does that involve grunts like orcs and goblins too? If so, that's not fair because you're classifying wars into 'real' and 'fake' sort of thing. Its all legit and powerful users should be able to help in any fight.

Not real and fake so much as what people complain about vs what they don’t complain about. They don’t complain when it comes to op users fighting in cz related stuff but they tend to complain when they fight in wars initiated by non-cz users. I don’t disagree with what you’re saying but it’s just an idea to lessen those complaints and tbh it probably won’t happen anyway because weapons have gotten so op themselves. It seems like pretty much half the game has a sniper these days.

If op users were to be reduced in this kind of fighting, op weapons would also need to be reduced. But this probably won’t happen either... So perhaps if op users only fought other op users (which includes military accounts) it would help to even things out....

I don’t know but anyway non-op people like to fight other non-op people because they have a lot higher of a chance of being able to kill them than what they would have killing an op person. That’s part of my idea with that point. The other part being that it would keep the account safe so Gamer wouldn’t have to restore people’s health and weapons all the time.
