Death Penalty Poll And (a bit heated) Discussion 😉

Yup, and I’m just telling you we’ve already HAD that and it didn’t work what so ever. It was such an ineffective solution that it was abandoned entirely. Adding a coin penalty only opens a new can of worms. Negative coin, for example.

Edit: these frequent edits make it impossible to have a reasonable discussion.

And this here’s the other reason I think you didn’t read what I wrote. You politely accused me of generalizing the thoughts of the community, but I already said clearly here that “at least from those who responded” in general agreed having more options for penalties seemed like a good idea.

Then you should have responded to the coin argument also, but you didn’t, and accused me of doing something negative, when all I’ve done for the past 2 weeks is help new PS4 players left and right, and it’s incredibly upsetting to be accused, even “respectfully” of what you just did.

Some of us are posting via mobile and can not easily keep up with the high rate of posts and edits- but you can attack that instead of my points, that’s cool. Nobody is going to reason you out of an opinion you didn’t reason yourself into in the first place.

Look, I didn’t come here to offend anybody, just to share my opinions on a poll. I’m done here, I’ve nothing more to add to what’s already been said.

What are you even talkin’ about now? I edited ONE thing in this discussion, and it was to add,

“My thinking had evolved on the issue after 30 posts, but you deliberately chose to quote an early post, an made an argument on it.”

You claimed I was generalizing, and I wasn’t, and I showed you a quote from a comment I made hours ago that showed I wasn’t, so I accused you of not reading through all the posts before accusing me of something, which is factually true, or you’d have known I already put a qualifier in there.

Right, so come on in here, insult someone as if they are tainting a discussion after they just had a great reasonable discussion with the other community members, then walk away without so much as an apology?

Maybe they want to try new things in the game they have already played and finished for 4 times. No one wants to use infinite life or infinite resources in any mmo or survival game. Having no fear of death or having no challenge for gathering resources soils the game all the time. If you don’t want death penalty you can just play minecraft in creative mode which you will get tired after 3-4 days of playing.

Would you be against offering options for players to choose their penalties?

Oh my ! this is worth than XP penalty for me. Imagine finding a diamond hot spot far in another planet and dying to lava there and after respawning you are in your beacon in your own planet.

I don’t know how I’ve offended you, and I’ve not attacked you. I’m not apologizing for something I’ve not done. That’s not how discourse works. But if you me to continue sharing my opinion, I’ll happily do so.

Nope. I choose “keep the penalty”, and not “implement a choice”, never mind it was not an option to choose, because if it was I would not choose. Did everyone who choose “keep the penalty” commented? I doubt, so please don’t generalize. You do a very bad thing, You state your opinions as facts, but they aren’t. They are still only your opinions :confused:

Haha yeah, for me, I wouldn’t mind trekking back, since I like explorin’, but as was explained before it can be abused, so there’d have to be a coin cost associated with it too.

I wouldn’t want to impose such a limitation on anyone, as I think giving you an option like other MMO’s do, in WoW you can rez at a graveyard, or go into ghost form, right? It’s nice to have that choice.

Yes I would be against it. Everyone must be equal in the game. Those who select less harsh penalties will advance faster and those who select harder penalties , will fall behind.

You did not read my posts, I did not generalize.

And in the OP I welcomed new feedback, such as yours, and I would like to hear why you think giving players a choice is bad.

But it seems people have decided they’d rather come in here to insult me rather than read through what’s been discussed.

I added this in the OP, so people like you, sztosz, could respond and disagree and explain why, I didn’t expect to be insulted by both a moderator and you.

I’m not a moderator, to be entirely honest. And nobody is attacking you… Just stating our displeasure at being generalized in such a manner.

Discord you are, and frankly, with that kind of authority, why couldn’t you have just said, “It sounds like you’re generalizing, are you?” Instead of sounding patronizing.

I did not read any of the posts. I responded to the first one, with the pool. And then just skimmed responses. I didn’t see 28 different people responding, so you writing those who said “keep the penalty” were fine with implementing a choice is a flat out lie. Maybe if you used more words like some of those [...], many of those [...] or something similar, I would not have problem with that.

I never generalized you, and I have proven that with quotes multiple times now.
