    If I could change one thing... The community manager would be a non-player with no ties to factions, volunteer staff, players, etc. Because no matter how many good decisions a player makes as CM, he/she will never be free from …

Every update, patch, scandal, and announcement makes us Torn denizens froth at the mouth and throw a fit.

"It's CLEARLY broken!".
"That'll NEVER work!".
"You're working on THAT and still no crimes 2.0?"

These are our rallying cries. But if you could change one thing, expedite one feature, undo one update, etc... What would you do? Are you releasing crimes 2.0? Faction warfare? Undoing the group attack changes? Make punishments harsher? Rolling back the mug nerfs?

Wave your magic wand and change one thing about Torn.

(I just wanted to see some general discussion in GD)

Fix bookies

Bring back competitive warring.

Make more shit to do so flying is actually stimulating

I always thought flying was a bit... lacking.
SA has hunting. China has level reveal. Switzerland has rehab. Caymans has banking.

Seems like a wasted opportunity not to have a unique mechanic in each.

warring

its the one aspect of the game i train my stats for but without it they are just numbers that keep going up

removing the old warring system before the new one was ready was a terrible idea by ched

i just wanna have fun wars again :(
Aezur [1950769] · #8
100% agree. This would be mine too. There are just so many benefits; a money sink for the economy, an outlet for aggression, a reason to train stats, a way for non-HoFs to feel a part of the game. Ranked/tiered warfare should be a top priority.

1. I'd either completely get rid of karma, or create negative karma with graded "consequences" to posting abilities.

2. Make small-scale warring more attractive.

3. Carry out some form of modified and mandatory "Prestige" system - for instance: resetting anyone whose battle stats reach 4B, or whose NW reaches 100B, allowing them to retain job stats and $5B in networth, but zeroing lvl and BS.

4. Laugh.

1. Agreed.
2. Agreed.
3. Haha, that would make things very interesting. Like a death mechanic. You're reborn with a small loan from your father.
4. I see this is where the plan really comes together!

Mass booster usage. It is extraordinarily frustrating to have to click a button 48 times every day just to train.
Aezur [1950769] · #12
Fun fact: Torn's populace has a massively above average index finger strength.

And we all thought we were just training our stats!

If I had magic wand god powers. I would full reset. Torn is fundamentally not the same game as it used to be. It has also stagnated. A hard reset would be like the Wild West again. It would be crazytown.

I would add all the UI normally available to the travel screen and make only crimes, attacking and racing unavailable, until you land. God, why I cannot see the faction page while travelling?
Vrocks [2577848] · #16
Improve traveling without a doubt, Since its part of every growing Torn player. Traveling has a good potential to improve the current repetitive gameplay but its never given the attention it deserves.

I would bring back the merits for 500 hospital items stolen, because not only did I earn "I'm a Real Doctor" fair and square but the new honor bar looks absolutely hideous.

I'd make a giant territory on the map connected to 40 other territories. This giant territory would have a 100 player wall. Every second a non-recruit player held a spot on the wall they would earn +1 score for their faction.

The faction with the highest score after 48 hours would have it's name etched into a wall in the Community Center and would earn a "faction glory badge" which would display on the faction home screen and hall of fame. Every player who was part of the winning team would earn +1 to a "glory badges earned" personal stat. The giant territory would disappear after the 48hr period.

Every 6 weeks the process would repeat except the giant territory would be in a different location on the map.

In September of 2022, Ched would release a merit for "10 glory badges earned."
