What's the title of your suggestion?: Metal bat nerf/Alternative to it.
What's your suggestion?:
For the longest time, metal bats have been the go-to item for CrimeRP/GangRP. Whether it's fighting or general roleplay on either end.
As much as I love the metal baseball bat, it has its downsides, making it one of the most commonly used weapons in Gangrp. A great Idea would make sense is to bring the range down on the metal bat by 1, decreasing the range from 3 blocks to 2 blocks.
Reasons why: The metal bat is a civilian weapon, making it purchasable from everyone who logs onto SRP. The three-block range that follows with it just makes it a little OP, and here is why. The metal bat outranges 90% of weapons within Gang/CrimeRP. I will put a list below showing what the bat can outrange, and what the bat is equal with/less range than.
OUTRANGED WEAPONS:
Spiked glove, Pipe Wrench, Pocket Knife (When used in hand), CrowBar, Sai, Tactical Knife, Fire axe, Spiked bat.
NEUTRAL RANGE/OUTRANGES:
Pocket knife (When thrown), Katana. Then the only weapon that outranges it, the Naginata.
Looking at that reference, 80% percent of weapons are outranged by the metal bat. Causing players to not care much for anything else, besides using the bat. As much as this is fine, it's a weapon that can be bought by anyone. Pairing that with the rule, Range isn't a visual thing. This makes it so that you will always need that extra action.
MY ALTERNATIVE: Adding a new weapon to CrimeRP would make people want to see what it is, and maybe bring a light into the scene for a bit out of curiosity. Nonetheless, it makes sense for it to have said a three-block range, and be a weapon that isn't available upon opening the server.
THE SLEDGEHAMMER:
A sledgehammer being added to SRP would benefit several subjects, which could bring more players into the scene.
Looking further at it, here are a few lines/stats that could be drawn when adding this weapon.
Street Gang/Organised gang only. Making it a weapon that can be purchased once you achieve one of those roles.
PRICE: ¥175,000
RANGE: 3 blocks
MUGGABLE (Y/N): Yes
K.O. (HOW MANY HITS?): 2 hits
ILLEGAL: Yes
PERMISSIONS REQUIRED? : Minors
Adding a weapon like the sledgehammer creates that distance needed from civilian weapons, allowing players to have the drive to make it to Street/Organized Gang. Along with making the change to the bat more efficient, where players don't have such a weapon that cancels the desire to use other weapons.
How will this benefit the server and community?:
This will help create a distance in the availability of weapons, and create more RP, as well as adding a new fun weapon for BMD to sell.
