Aging

Beat me to the punch, Marrkos.  Thinking about your comments about getting some warning, I wonder? Under Injuries on the character window, show a reduced activity level with the injury listed as Age Related Decline, and you just don't heal from it. ......................... vet wv Posted Feb 26, 2009, 9:11 pm

darthspanky McSPANKYS LOLLIPOP GANSTAS Darkwind Guru Anarchists Faction Group: Subscribers Posts: 4,008 Joined: Jul 29, 2007 i know when i get close to a zero ability that character is going to become a griever and i hope to kill as many players as i possibly can, id rather die in pvp than of old age at 35 or less cause i do have guys with high streanth and low speed. ya spend 2 years building up characters and no fault of yer own, there not shot up or killed, yet because you chose to work up a character with a low ability yer punished and they die young leaving you to have to try to work up a replacement leader that takes a long time to match my current ldr score. not at all happy about this its a disincentive to playing, i understand its a harsh environment and dont expect to live to an old age but never thought id be dead before 35. if i had ida fired them 2 years ago. ......................... vet paintball wv1,0,1 Posted Feb 27, 2009, 1:49 am

This is more in line with the role that strength has always had in the game (it's a combination of str+con in D&D language.. I always thought it was a bit redundant having them as separate stats) Of course, since everyone recently started with zero mileage, no character is actually anywhere near having aging effects yet. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Feb 28, 2009, 11:50 am Last edited Feb 28, 2009, 11:51 am by *sam*

So a character who doesn't do very much will expect to live well into their 60s or 70s, while a really active who has taken a lot of punishment will likely expire in their 40s. Also, older characters (age 36+) with skills over 100 will automatically boost the training of their skills in the same town that they're in. ......................... vet wv Posted Feb 28, 2009, 1:16 pm

Kime Dennory Weasel Works Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 725 Joined: Aug 8, 2008 Just took a look over my characters. Fortunately, my median strength is well above 50 (57, in fact) and only 1/3 of my gang is below 50. Is this typical for other people? I definitely wasn't selecting for high strengths... was much more interested in dex and spd. -KD ......................... vet Posted Feb 28, 2009, 11:45 pm
