No Plane Tickets - Please
Forums › General Discussion › No Plane Tickets - Please-
I wanted to respond to Belial's Landlocked thread. I disagree for the most part with the idea of a plane ticket. This is just my own personal experience, but the fun of the game for me has been to visit new places and plant turfs. How many of us take our iPods/iPhones with us now when we travel for work or play just to plant new turfs? Probably a lot. I like that challenge. I like knowing that I can't get to Ney York unless I hop or fly over there. I shouldn't be allowed to plant turfs unless I'm there. The physical part of getting to the destination, and then planting a turf, is one of the rewarding parts of this game. I will go as far as to say it's cheating current players (at this point in the Turf Wars history) to allow plane tickets since so many people have wasted so much time, effort and money, to turf hop to other locations. I say no to plane tickets. Leave the game as is.

Why do you have two posts of this ???

Nevermind

But tge problem is after a certain level there's just no challenges left in an area. I realized that when you posted about my old rival retiring. There's just nothing challenging left for me in calofornia. What would you have me do?

Sunny, if it happened, I'm sure it'd be an extremely rare loot item.

I have to agree with Sunny here...the GPS positioning and the effort I have expended to spread my turfs far and wide would be negated by a cheap ass "plane ticket"
I'm against it...the best part of the game is the location based play...dont ruin that by introducing cheats to get around what most of us have worked very hard to achieve. -

Then again ... If plane tix are readily available then attachk range should be reduced to 100 miles to keep balance

I hop. But see that's the one flaw of my character. I've only expanded a little over 100 miles in each direction except west.👿Belial wrote:

me?
no. I want the game to remain unique in that it takes effort to get in your car and actually drive to a new location and claim a turf...I do NOT want this game to be won by kids who steal their moms credit card to buy the fabled "plane ticket" -
As much I feel bad for you B, I gotta go with Sunny on this. I like that feeling of going to a new place an dropping a few turfs. And I've taken the time and blown a good amount of in game cash hopping, which was part of the reward in getting someplace. And for farther places I take my device with me and plant turfs there, like I did in Vegas.
I think that it's up the individual player to set new goals and reasons to play. Just like any MMO once you're maxed out you either quit or take advantage of being uber powerful. I've got all kinds of goals that don't include being leaderboards, mob size or level. And while most not be as able to, I don't mind taking the time to maybe drive a little to go place a new turf. And B, Vegas ain't that far. As much money as we've both dropped on this game, you could easily take a day off and drive to and from Vegas. Go and have a meal, see a show, get a lap dance or two, plant your turfs and head back. Hell if you don't wanna go alone I'll ride out with you.

@jmanx. True Vegas ain't that far. But also business there'd take me like what? A day or two at most. The real target is alot farther than that. I don't know? I'd be happy with turf hopping just being reliable.

Now that a think of it plane tickets are pretty stupid. It might not as well be called Turf Wars cuz u won't BE at the place (turf hopping is exception). If u can't travel by for reals gtfo and delete ur app. So I agree with Sunny.
