Halloween Ideas (for DarkRP)

[Danny_The_Dog 280]

My idea is to use this post/thread to get the community's feedback on what they like, don't like, want to add or take away from the Halloween events and map. I'm all ears for anything.

 

Some of my thoughts:

Small easter egg type things to find such as

-new (hidden) additions to map 

-items or props hidden for discovery or collection

make backrooms a permanent addition

Maybe you could fill the sewers up with low hp zombie npcs that give you a little bit of cash when you kill them

There's actually nothing that I dislike with the Halloween update, it's awesome! This also happens to be my favorite time of year too so I'm slightly biased. Some of the stuff I've enjoyed:

• The backrooms are just fantastic! I'd never really bothered with them before, and I honestly don't know why, because I had a great time once I jumped in. Also thanks to @GamingCarrot for helping me familiarize myself and for a good laugh.
• The map is perfect, especially when it's night-time.
• The boss fight is brilliant, and it's great that everyone gets involved and works together.
• The candy store is awesome, well themed and polished with some great stuff.

 

But here's a few ideas which might be of interest:

• '/TrickOrTreat' command. For a limited time (the duration of the halloween update) players can use a new command to mug others, in an attempt to steal their candy by using the /trickortreat command. This would work in the same way as the standard mug command, same UI prompt, and available to raiding classes, albeit with sweets as the currency instead of dollars. Requires no additional assets, just scripts.
• GM Ideas - Themed events like a scary story competition, zombie hunt in the sewers, etc. The GM's do some superb work already, but these would be awesome! Maybe allow the ability for GM's to award candy as a reward too perhaps?
• Additional collectors / limited-edition items in the candy shop. I have a few Halloween 2024 vapes (which are great) but I think it would be wildly popular to have a wider range of limited edition items to collect. If the items were unique, it would be even more popular. If I spoke my imagination - a OP ghost busters vacuum (which can be used in PvP), disappears on death, and droppable (to be a collectors item). Probably not feasible but just to show my thought-process.
