To say, there'd be war in the streets. Alot of people falling off the face of the earth.

Kirky,
I dont want to get rid of the berserk option. just make it the only hospitalize option and rename it hospitalize.
The gang back up and gang protection options are incentives for people to join and stay in one gang. They are a good feature especially since they dont factor in to power level and then a weaker player can beat a stronger player and steal a decent amount of gang points for his gang. It also adds a bit of Gang point management into the mix. as a president you have to decide if it is worth giving the protection to someone or if your gang is better served saving those gang points for another upgrade.

Zen wanted the game to have some realistic features; so in real life if you're in a gang and someone attacks you, the other members will sit and watch??
and berserk is for those that are not in a gang :wink: (probably)

Awesomo. It adds surprise to the game. It's always fun to try and figure out if someone you used to beat on nonstop actually worked their asses off to beat you, or if they're using gang protection and gang backup to do so.

However, YOU don't know that. It makes you think twice about attacking them whenever they come back at you with a force you haven't seen before, doesn't it? Especially whenever you start losing to that individual. Unless you're smarter than that, and wait until they run that down, then you're probably going to hate it, but I find it rather interesting to hit someone up, that I normally beat, to get beaten in a fair match-up.
Anyway..Protection code should be done away with. I like purple fuzz pirate's idea(Sorry. Don't know you're name.) I like my idea, too.
