✈️ Feature Suggestion: Gyms in Other Countries

Let Us Stay Fit While We Travel! 🏋️🌎

One feature I think would make the travel system much better is adding gyms to the countries we travel to.

Right now, there’s a gym available in Torn and the city Jail, which is great for training. However, once we travel to another country, there isn’t a way to access a gym while we’re there. Since traveling is such a major part of the game, it would be great if players could continue training even when they’re abroad. 

How It Could Work:

After landing in another country, players could have access to a local gym in the city they’re visiting. The player could then pay a fee to unlock the gym membership in each country or if have it as a perk for every player after a certain level is reached. 

For example:

Torn City → 🇯🇵 Japan

Instead of losing access to training after arriving in Japan, the player could find a Japanese gym and continue their normal workout routine. Different countries could even have unique gyms, designs, names, or environments to make each destination feel more authentic.

Why This Would Be a Great Addition

• 🏋️ Keeps training consistent — Players don’t have to stop progressing just because they traveled.
• 🌎 Makes international travel more meaningful — Visiting a new country could introduce new locations and activities.
• 🎮 Gives players another reason to explore — Players would have something to look for when arriving in a new country after a long flight or getting a quick pump in before traveling back to Torn.
• 🏙️ Makes each country feel more immersive — Local gyms could have different appearances, themes or a focus on one stat. (For example, South Africa is associated with strength. Therfore the focus stat would be strength training. China is associated with dexterity due to sports like table tennis, badminton, martial arts where precision and coordination is important. Therefore, Dexterity would be the main focus stat.)
• 🔄 Improves the overall gameplay loop — Travel → explore → train → continue progressing.

The Main Idea

Travel shouldn’t mean giving up access to training.

Adding gyms to international destinations would make traveling feel less like leaving the game’s main gameplay behind and more like bringing your entire progression with you wherever you go.

It would be a relatively simple addition that could make the world feel much bigger, more interactive, and more rewarding to explore.

I understand why you feel that way. You believe by adding a gym to each country would take away core gameplay from the main city. However, this suggestion is not to take away core gameplay. Adding gyms to other countries is simply a way to continue training after a long flight. Not everyone wants to attack other players while in a country and by not using their energy to attack is just wasteful energy for the players that don’t want to attack. I haven’t updated my thread yet but I’ve decided not to have gyms that have a boost for one specific stat. Instead, the gyms will be our default gyms in Torn. There’s no special upgrades or paying a membership. it’s just a normal default gym to train and if you want your full gym gains then you would have to fly back to Torn. By having default gyms will prevent citizens from overstaying in other countries for days and weeks to train because the stats won’t be as beneficial if they had just stayed in the city to train. I also want to add that players have always overstayed.  Players will usually stay in Africa to hunt or go to another country to Rehab. Some are running away from a citizen or they’re hospitalized and can’t get out of the country due to others attacking them as soon as they get out of the hospital. To conclude, this is on me and I should’ve updated my thread to have more transparency on what is expected. Default Torn city gyms with normal stat gains in each country is the idea. Thank you for your feedback and have a great day!

Thank you for your feedback. I will use this to improve the suggestion so that the gameplay won’t be unfair or unbalanced. 

-The special gyms would be through a paid membership only just like the gyms are in Torn. 

-The regular gyms should be there by default so that everyone has access to the gym with no special concentration solely for one stat. 

-If a special gym is opened i’m thinking there should be a training cap since you mentioned how players would stay and train to improve one stat but weaker players that can’t afford the price won’t be able to benefit greatly from the training like the stronger/richer players. 

or 

 just get rid of the one stat concentration all together and just focus solely on access to a gym with stat gains similar to the default gym in Torn. Which would be a better route since a gym in other countries should be a temporary gym till players can travel back to Torn for their full training stats. 

I will work more on this. If you have any inputs for improving this suggestion please don’t hesitate to add in your ideas. 

Thank you again for your feedback and have a great day!
