Highly upvoting this suggestion because as the new LV meta has been changed a map editor needed to adapt some turfs to the new game play system  :tick:

LV have limited turfs to handle quantity, I left because LV became very bad that 5 people defending 1 while most of them using RPGs which makes the gameplay pointless and impossible to have fun. having an update like that will make turfs that can give advantages like taking covers for low amount against the high.

It would be very refreshing to have different sea turfs and changes to the more difficult turfs to defend/attack. LV has been at a very stagnant point for many years now with no real new changes to meta or gameplay. I think mixing up the turfs with objects or places entirely like you mentioned was the plan with the sea turfs is a very good and refreshing idea, and maybe even slightly shift the meta to something different, who knows?

We already have an LV discord for everyone to throw in their two cents to make it as fair as possible. Arran and Brian always has the last say, so if there is any balancing issues they can simply reject the changes. (Including the limits and restrictions that would be taken in to account for the mappers)

I have a feeling this will be a good change for every LV player. Totally supporting this.

My personal opinion as an lv player, if this suggestion will be implemented most of LV will lose interest to play there. So please, keep it as it is. Totally negative  :cros:

I can see how they are having fun in LV, they only playing in some parts which would be: HBL, Kacc, parking, this resumes LV, and LVPD.

We would edit only unused turfs and make it useful to play, like, players will have more options of turfs to play, because alot of turfs in LV are unused not the favourite of them to be playing.

Also, your lack of argument, I couldn't find any logical answer, in what you wrote. How players will leave LV if we edit unused turfs and now make it finally useful, maybe you got something personal against the OP that made the topic, and that's why you are not supporting the idea, you got some grudge.

LV consists of players all the time going to KACC, LVPD, HBL, alot of turfs are not that often used, and these turfs will be EDITED to make it playable.

Maybe changing sea turfs would be good.

Daddy will create/build the mappers team, he will choose who fits, whoever wants to help are welcome, plus every map modification will be put in the topic of the proper board of LV Map Editor to be voted. And in one week we will update it, we will gather the votes with one week, and receive the feedback, also, when we edit a specific turf and make it playable, players can share feedbacks if we should add more covers area (for the battle) more boxes or stairs, the map could be updated alot, like in modern games, updating it.

And in this "graph" I show where the players play, this will be useful for Arran as he doesn't know LV's turfs name (maybe)

Red: Most played turfs "24 Hours/7"
Yellow: Neutral, not that often played.
And others one are dead turfs. (If compared with red and yellow ones)



Red: Why players play there? They got a decent scenario, they can hide, jump, go to a higher place, making it very dynamic, and even hidding inside a shed/hangar.
Yellow: Seems to be equal if compared to red but with lack of "objects/building" to do all what I wrote above.

I guess LV turfs (specifically sea turfs) aren’t updated since we mapped it at first and none touched it after it.
Having a team of mappers who will work within a limit and restrictions to make the city updated with the need of time is something we should consider and these guys will have better communication with LV players comparing to an administrator holding that duty..
If it work within limits and restrictions and having positive impact then why not?
I will vote positive for this suggest.

I don't think there are unused turfs in LV. Especially in the land, the only reason why it is inactive is because we lacks to players in LV. Now you saying that players are sticked with specific turfs like KACC, LVPD etc.. I am saying because these places are good ones to fight. But we only lacks to developers whom gonna work on Sea turfs and oil because they mapped since long time ago. They're older than my grandma.. Even players are getting bored of them since they became old ones and nothing really interesting/motivating to play there. But baddest idea is adding whole duty and their administrator daddy to make LV better.

Also, your lack of argument, I couldn't find any logical answer, in what you wrote.

You must respect others opinion even if you don't agree with them, either that will be considered as ignorance from you. Furthermore, how dare you tell me that I have problem with the OP, and I voted negative just cuz I hate him, but the fact is I don't even know that person, I just know him from team/main chat as he is provoking my groupmates whole the time.thats why I am saying he is untrustworthy to give him such a position and allow him to do whatever he want on LV. Seriously, nothing personal but I am just a fair person, only being equal with everything. All I care about is our server's future.

Sorry but no from me. Daddy proved that he is bad example and we can never trust him on hard tasks like this, firstly he were warned recently on forum, 2ndly his behavior is unsuitable for that. How will he chose perfect editor when himself isn't perfect. I can imagine him when he get his power as administrator of lv map editor how will him abuse it. And lastly the guy being reported many times. He lacks to the common sense and he don't know how democracy works.

You've done a good scenario but it stay mess of your thoughts. Because all areas are playable but since sea and oil are mapped ones they must be edited due to its old age and bugged objects. But the rest are good enough, but they are dead cuz lv itself is dead. But I witness that KACC, PARK, LVPD, NBL, CASTLE, CASINO, PNS, CBL are most fun but they are enough locations if you want to play in mapped locations then shall you move to Sea.

I didn't disrespected your comment, I just said that I didn't found any logical answer. Look at the players, majority upvoted it. It shows that we are going on the right direction, and about daddy choosing a "perfect mapper" perfect doesn't even exists, we are looking for people who can map and make sure there won't be any bug, no it is not baddest idea, you got some grudge agains't this player as I can see clearly, everytime you have to mention him, just don't make this a drama topic if you have any trouble with him go to his private profile and send him a message to solve it. Lets discuss about how the suggestion will help or not help etc.

Also, this is the first step, (New Board/LV Map editor duty) and after that we can have motivation to start working on a whole new sea turfs.

We need to organize it firstly.

At this time, some sentences doesn't make senses to me, how he will do whatever he wants if it is based on votes, I can't understand.

@OhhKarim   can you understand it? Cus I cannot.

Btw he won't abuse powers as you are claiming, if he abuses he is simple removed, he won't abuse it, I know.

Voting Negative.   :cros: it will ruined LV gameplay again hehe. Just opinion  :thonk:

@PGM  how it will ruin LV gameplay? Give us a logical answer with some details, as I can see, you guys are probably smsing each other on any platform if not in CIT, like: go to this suggestion X and say that you don't support it, go vote negative, at this point I don't even know if you read the topic properly. (Maybe hobos players marked this player and is voting not based on the suggestion itself but a grudge against this specific player)

It won't ruin gameplay because it doesn't change gameplay but change maps aspect, also, the unused turfs would be edited as no one likes to play there, I repeated this 99x times.

I don't think your reply is going to be considered.
