Friend Rescue

well i know there are a lot of people who hate losing items when they die well here is something that can be done about it;

ok here is my idea, dont know if it is actually being worked on, but i think that there should be a place maybe next to the regular missions board that shows player missions

when you go into a dungeon and die by something like wind/pokemon/belly ect… you would turn into a see through-sprite of yourself and cant move or do anything, meanwhile pokemon would start to spawn around you, now on the other side…
When someone dies they can ask for help over the global chat, also their mission appears over the player mission board located next to the regular npc missions, when you accept this mission you can treat it the exact same way as a normal mission, once you accept the mission you will go to the dungeon that is located with the player and rescue them

once you rescue them they are sent to inn or crossroads and do not lose any items

and since this is a PMD game i think it would only make sense if a player rescue was added

i agree with this suggestion. losing items by wind is so annoying…

To be honest I think the idea is absolutely genius and I understand what you’re saying here, and I don’t think anyone has thought about it yet.

this idea is great! i know that lots of people get stuck or something while farming revivers,tinymushrooms etc. for example: what if the boss doesnt appear, or another reason: the telepoter doesnt show up. and i hate the wind when you are trying to recruit a poke and you bring a soothe bell or something. i approve :D

That would be really cool! :D
Though I can see a few problems with it.
Sometimes people leave in the middle of a mission, making the person in need of rescuing having to send it back to the mission board.
Also what if the person in need of rescuing logs out?

Would the person in need of saving have to sit there the whole time waiting, while somebody is trying to save them?
Also would the mission prize still be poke?

I think that the person’s “ghost” should stay there, whether the person logs out or not. Also to prevent the problem of a slow person getting the mission, making it so multiple people can take the mission, and everyone would get the prize if they get there in a certain amount of time.

For now, I see no other problems! :D

I like this idea but don’t know what to say ._.

Same Wise, I’m not sure if I approve or disapprove this idea, but I was thinking that instead of a set reward, why doesn’t the player in need of rescue set a reward? Or would this be abused? Just wondering.

I’ve suggested that a few days ago on the global chat, eh.

I like it, but I could see a problem with someone getting ignored, because no one wants to help the person and then the person just spams or gets angry because he/she isn’t being helped.

Plus, the person would have to have something to do, if their just sitting there dangling in space or something some people are just going to get bored. Put lvl 1 gastly’s in there or something so it’s something to gain exp from while their waiting (it’s not much, but it’s something) or heck put a arcade room in their for pokemon (lol). People will just get bored with nothing to do, and if someone’s bored it creates problems. Also, I would think there would be an option not to go like in PMD, if say you just have a bunch of apples in your bag and they could easily be replaced by beating bidoofs north of grassroot.

I like it though,it would be a fun interactive thing, and I would defiantly use it if it helps us get up in rank while getting a little dough in our pocket as well.

But this could be abused, plus I think It’s making the game was too easy. Cause once you die, that’s it. You have to lose things.

That too. That’s the thing that makes me not approve this.

If you are scared to lose items, just store your important ones. <—(Newbie Hint!) We just have to deal with it, I guess.

I’d feel sorry for whoever has to rescue them. If they’re in large dungeons they can’t be rescued because going 98 / 27 floors to help someone out, then get kicked back out seems a bit useless.

Other then that and some missions being too easy for other’s to want to help, I like the idea. ^^

This idea has been planned for a long, long time. It will be implemented at some point in the future. However, there is one problem that I see. When a player faints and posts a request to be rescued, that player should not be able to leave the dungeon to train/get more items/anything else. If the player fainted on a high floor, such as 99F, rescuing them may take some time… so, the player gets bored. Any suggestions?

Yeah, bring an Escape orb. xD

Hmm…maybe only certain players get certain missions etc etc…
Maybe they can have a ‘ghost’ version of themselves to go to town or something, they can go into dungeons etc…but they can’t gain exp, or pick up items.

If they are killed in the ‘ghost’ form, the mission is called off.

I’m tired so all my deas have fizzed away now xD.

well if a player dies they can type /watchsavior or something like that and then the screen of the person who is saving you could pop up instead of your screen and you can watch their adventure, and to stop you can type /stopwatchsavior

or they can just wait talking in global and watch as pokemon pile up near him

But that would be kind of upsetting to others in a way, knowing they died on 99F but got saved.

well. it likly would be like the pmd games where you cant be rescued in certain dungeons,such as hc and ht.

agreed.

The little pelliper island thing could happen or…the person in need of rescue can as ribbon said see their hero…more ideas to come in this post I made

I’m with WiseWizard, but the player who “died” could choose if wants to be rescued or not, if not the player goes to the place where it started(the /sethouse location), if yes the player can choose the time he would wait, if the time runs out he losts the items and goes back to the /sethouse place.
The prize depends in the floor and in the dungeon(i.e Tiny Grotto Floor 3 = 100 Poké). That way the people won’t abuse in the prize.
Comment Please.

I also Agree The Suggestion a friend Rescue would be Great for PMU.
