The titles says all.....i think is very good idea to activate the model station in H-5 as Casino and game station with selling only ships and cells (or and weapons and stuffs...) and FULL sector NFZ guarded from Corvus and if someone violate the NFZ punishment with big loss of Corvus standing.......
Also with casino games (black jack , slot machines ect...) can have and betting system for races or anything else for example a pvp or duelings.....

Faceof....

This makes more sense than anything else you've suggested.

+1 to a Casino station. Could be a good credit sink. Maybe have rare weapons or widgets as prizes.

Ty....anyway i believe this can helps alot the players who want something lite one day and need to remember again races without being event but for fun and like more dueling and ALSO ....for more roleplaying .....like Gambler or pilot racing cars....lol...spaceships.....ect:)

I think many players now dont have something to do or dont want to do anything (why is old players or anything ..just be online in game...) now have a reason to stay more in game and relaxing....

Any more ideas?

Betting not only on the classic casino games, but also race times and nationalist events would be cool too.

+1, except allowing large faction loss for Corvus. Make it Xang Xi or something if you want there to be faction loss.

It'd be neat if the community could come up with a "modern" gambling game of sorts, that fits with Vendetta's backstory/RP.

....for Corvus (or all grey factions guard this sector ...idk if this is possible..) i say it why need to be secure for ALL (FULL Sector NFZ) this sector othewise the rats or pirates lurks and kill anyone gets in.......thats why ...to came and relaxing and playing and talking ....all good things:)

...or Devs need to find other way to secure the sector....

ALSO this station can provide some exclusives informations ...leave the Devs to deside...

I don't really like the bit about the NFZ/faction-protection. It would interfere with the ability to have combat races. On the other hand, we could still have those in the several other tube sectors, so I guess it would be ok, and would help to add a little more variety.

Making the NFZ full-sector is silly though. Just extend it out far enough to cover the whole track plus 1km. (You do realize that NFZ has nothing to do with the penalty for actually killing people, right? That is always for the full sector.)

The faction should be Aeolus if you want penalties for death. Why? We're talking about a race track, and Aeolus was the god of the winds. Nuff said.

Penalties should not be any higher than for committing the same infractions at a normal station's sector.

+1 to activating the station.

+1 to Casino.

+1 a way to bet on races/duels

Pipe Dream: a way to WATCH races. (camera coverage throughout the tubes). I know 3d interiors of stations is nowhere remotely on the horizon, but just PERHAPS: This station could have multiple observation decks that would work like entering a turret on a cap ship. if you swapped thru them in the right order you could watch the race progress thru the clear tubes.

Even bigger pipe dream: conduct NPC races every 30-60 minutes that players can join by taking a mission. (this would fit into the pheaux-voys aesthetic of making the universe look busy)

+1 to Savet: "It's grey space, make it no nfz, and let it be the wild wild west casino.

+1 million
Maybe add casinos in random stations, so you could play in nation space. UIT space could have super casinos with a bunch of random games

I don't know if any of you remember, but Breazle and I put a gambling guild together quite a few years back (thinking about it now, it must've been 5+ years) and it was actually very popular. Breazle made some plugins for roulette, blackjack, and texas hold em (i think, been a long time). My point is, they are not easy to make. I remember the process; and, even our plugins were full of bugs. Vendetta needs this though. And, I certainly hope this is something on the table for the future.

For any of you interested, I might be able to pull the ol' computer out of the basement, blow the dust off of it, and see if I can dig up those plugs.

I remember those, lots of fun. :)

Sure, dig them out and post them somewhere.

Step one: Google hangout (Or anything with group video chats)
Step two: Have everyone get cards
Step three: Invent an efficient way of playing poker, blackjack, or what have you over the internet
Step four: Watch me break your dignity with my poker skills

+1 for sure!

In addition to the casino idea, how about an auction house type thing with it's own style of interface? You take what you want to sell, put it up for your buy now price and also have the option to auction them (considering you dropped a whole behemoth). Players that like their rep and find it tough to get LENBs can buy them from there off other players who obtain them easily.

I like the guarded idea. I would add HEAVILY guarded. For every shot you fire, even in the distance, a random station guard fires on at you. MASSIVE NFZ. Better yet, zoning in makes your ship's weapons completely nonoperational. It would be the only sector of "peace and security." You cannot even ram another ship to death, well, not without instantly getting killed by the guards...

Maybe this station can also be used to manufacture new/existing ships/weapons to either use yourself or sell to other players that can buy them from your auctions or sales.

Another one I'll toss out there, sell your services there. Do you hunt pirates? Do you give professional escorts to traders? Want to open your own shipping service with that fancy new Trident you built? Let people advertise by typing in descriptions of their line of work with their prices listed.

Edit: TRIDENT DOCKING FOR SURE!!!
