Risk Being Hit by Stray Items - 100 likes! · · 111 likes

This is obviously crucial for game functionality, I don't know how Torn even exists without it.

If you miss with a throwing item or other ranged temp item, there should be a chance it hits
someone randomly in the game. Or create a new item that does this. Or just all bullets.

You're walking around Torn City, there is all sorts of mayhem on these streets!
If you go outside (currently active) there should be some risk, maybe not high damage or anything major.

I think this would be fun.

OTHER PLAYERS THOUGHTS:

Cubis [322419] had a interesting idea too: Awareness could help dodge it!

Bardicer [553834]'s additions that I thought were interesting.
I would add that missing with a gun should give a chance to hit a random person with a stray bullet. Make an honor for it if you end up in the hospital via this method "Casualty", "Crossfire Catcher" or something like that.

Potential thoughts:

1. You attack someone in a faction (let's assume you have to go to a faction's territory, if they have territory) and miss. If the random chance to hit a bystander procs, the chance of hitting one of their faction members is the highest, followed by a random person in a faction next to their faction's territory, and so on down the line.
2. You attack someone not in a faction or someone in a faction without territory, everyone has an equally random chance (assuming that turfless factions and people not in a faction are spread evenly throughout the city).
3. You attack someone currently in the casino, item market, racing, etc. and miss, the people with the higher probability of being hit are people who are also in that area.
4. If someone ends up in the hospital via this method, it would be treated as a "leave" for hospital time purposes, and result in no respect lost or gained since they weren't targeted. Also it would not result in an "attack" or "defend" won/lost for the same reason (the person wasn't the target).
5. Damage done would be reduced by 25-75% so for the most part it would just be a minor annoyance (unless someone just emptied their life into blood bags and is sitting on 1 hp).
6. If you're involved in a group attack and miss, the chances of randomly hitting someone else in the fight would be drastically increased depending on the number of people involved in the fight.

This was really fun to think about. Please continue to like and add your thoughts. I understand this has simply just met the criteria to warrant
a possible comment by devs, but thanks for the support. PLUS only 12 people want me to go to hell, noice!

Torn APP Store - Laptop Functionality · · 45 likes

Tl:dr Software upgrades for the laptop.

I fly quite a bit. Yeah, I know you do too. I've seen you snoring, head tilted back drooling with a sleep mask over your eyes as we head to UAE, SA, China. Maybe you might pull out your laptop, read the paper, browse the forums, check your stonks/email.

What if you could upgrade your laptop to have functions that go beyond the limits of a Tandy 1400?

I am suggesting the Torn App Store. Purchasable software upgrades to increase functionality.
Each app could have a one time cost or even a subscription fee as we see many of them trending towards these days.

Possible new functions: (each having its own app, or bundled in several apps)

Casino Access - play a couple hands of poker? keno? all while soaring through the sky!
Edu access - sign up for your online classes while in a territorial feud for YOUR armrests.
Faction Roster - see the current roster of your/others factions. Maybe not their current status (online/traveling etc)
View Companies - see but maybe not being to make any changes? or maybe yes make changes?
Estate Agent Access - manage/view your rental properties while running xan/plushies/flowers to pay your own rent.
View the HOF - check your ranking in any of the various categories.

I know this one has been sort of suggested in the past:
Bazaar/Item market access - Either be able to just browse and not purchase, or purchase and have it available upon landing in Torn.

I am trying to think of some things I would love to be able to do while flying, that I would pay for, that isn't game breaking.



Would you pay for some of these functionalities?

Is your time in the air the time you need to step away from Torn for a bit?

Think any of these suggestions are game breaking/not needed?

Have any more applications to suggest or in a different way?

I have no idea what a PDA does. Just throwing that out there.
