What I was trying to say was that if I didn't play for the fun of the event - then I wouldn't be bothering doing leagues that pay 60k and a 2L Rotary- when I have 10 mill in the bank and can make 100k+ in an hour of scouting.

Anyway, I don't wanna  get into an argument with you Bastille- cos I think you're one of the coolest guys in here.
I just think you mis-understood my comments (or I didn't explain myself very well- which is the most likely!)
Cheers,
Brun.

Yup no zombie badge here either.
Also hot rods really! For a ped event! But that's not why I play.
Would be cool if new game content ped weapon only obtainable from ped events. Say maybe Mini gun or 50cal sniper rifle. What sort of prize is a car for ped army were pedestrian not racers.

As for the new twist on pedestrian combat luage I'm totally stoked. It's never about the prizes it's all about the body count.

I've always looked at the ped combat leauges with a combination of awe and revulsion. Seems to me the "one free ganger a week" limit must get tested an awful lot. Never seen stats on this, but I have to imagine these have the highest fatality rate of any leauge there is.

Kudos to those who are keeping this facet of the game alive, though; frankly, I think anyone who signs up for these at all is playing for the "love of the sport," rather than the prizes (or even badges.)

:) No harm meant here either brun,... I remember when a hotrod was a cool thing to have (maybe that was just me), now days they are a dime a dozen.

Some of the leagues have some big prizes, some not so big. If the prize ain't worth risking the high end stuff or gangers, it might allow smaller people to take part.

Or just to mess with other players.

Actually I lose more limbs than lives in Ped events.  Boonwolf could attack me with a Candy Bar in those events and blow off my leg it seems...  Yummy Yorkies

I have modified the 'Create Custom Town Event' page (accessed from the Events Diary) so that you can now choose to have stock vehicles in custom ped arena combats.

I started that way, but ended up just hiring bodies for ped events.  Since they are kinda expendable, no worries.  If they live long enough to get a spec, i'll be surprised.  (One is getting close)  The AI is pretty consistant on running straight to their deaths so having new PVPers will be great. 

Wish list - Ped armor.  Usually ped armor takes the form of a car, but in a ped event, some armor could make them last longer.  Wouldn't expect it to stand up to vehicle weapons, but maybe a hit to the head/chest could be a concussion (or KO) instead of death. 

Wist list - a heavier ped weapon vs cars.  Some one mentioned it.  Don't need a dozen, maybe 1 or 2.

Would like to see a car kinda shot up for these events, then I may have a chance to kill the driver before I get run over...

The thing with BA is that it has always been assumed that characters are already using it.

I had a guy get hit in the head, and he was knocked unconscious. Out of the event but he lived to fight again.

I had another guy take one burst from a SMG, and he was deader than a doornail. I'll miss Bernard. He was one of those guys that got played a lot!

I had one guy take an anti-tank round that only broke his collar bone and knocked him out. I assume that it had to be a glancing blow. I'm glad. King Tiger bailed out of a burning, barrel-rolling Chomper after his driver had his head blown off, and was running for his life.

Gotta love those Arena Combats, lol.

When you get something stuck in your head, you gotta get it out before you forget. So here is my badge proposal for the new league. It's a little bit of ped vs a little bit of car, what's not to love about that!! Thoughts or suggestions from the community.

Mixed Mayhem League or... something...

SMG will chew through that Yorkie in 2 to 3 turns.  I wouldnt worry too much about it being scary.  Although any ball of steel rolling at you going 70Mph is pretty scary.  I just wish it didnt have guns on it.  The guns on the car is kind of counter to the suggestion unless of course each side has a car.

What kind of points does the team get for running over a ped?  less than a weapon hit?  or the same?

PRETTY!

Although I would like to recommend a name change and call it "Somerset Hybrid Combat League"  and mabe have it as an added league not just changing Ped#2 into it.  And havit it last longer than Ped.  Or move Ped 2 to Elmsfield onto Tez's arena he is/was making?

Thanks Sam.  As of now, this feature is not working.  I posted in bugs about it.  No details available other than the event doesn't show up in the list of live events.
