As the Devs have already stated, they will not be adding home invasions "to protect what players have worked hard to create" or somethin' along those lines. I wanna make that clear before I start. This is an idea to maybe allow it with RESTRICTIONS possibly.
Why not add a "valuables" safe/crate - the only thing allowed to be effected by robbers. This is where you would be storing weapons, items, etc. That way players cannot abuse the "invite only" feature to enter houses and it makes the game a bit more realistic. Am I the only one who thinks this is a good idea?
There could be upgrades, first starting off as a wooden crate, it is able to be broken into very easy, then an electric safe, steel safe, etc.
Other things the robbers would be allowed to do is maybe interact with items, such as still being able to turn lights on, or play the CD player, just for fun? This IMO would be a better way to handle the home invasion aspect of the game rather than just not allow it at all. Thoughts? ****Open minded discussion please****
