  1. While I don't necessarily agree with being able to gun someone down in an NCZ, I think people shouldn't be able to flee to an NCZ to avoid the consequences of the crime they commit. Someone robbing someone else and then running to the cops when his friends pull up makes no sense, since in reality you'd just tell the cops/security guards/whatever that he stole from you, and they'd take action. The problem with this is that while RPly that security is in NCZs there isn't actually someone there to do anything about it, so despite being a thief the player who ran to the NCZ has nothing to worry about from security or guards, or even cops a lot of the time since they're usually not at the PD

  2. I sold it to him for $300,000 a week ago so if he's charging significantly more than that you're being ripped off. There's a lot of people going around recently and buying up houses then selling them a day later for $100,000 more than they spent and it's inflating the housing prices.

  3. Not sure if this would be possible to code for the server, but if so I'd like to see car washes be implemented. It could be made into a job, or just something mechanics can do, and it would allow for some more RP and cleaner vehicles driving around. If people have other ideas as to a better way for it to work I'm open to hearing them as I haven't put much thought into it besides just being able to wash cars. 

  4. I've had my eye on a property for a while now that I was thinking about doing something with if the opportunity ever arose, and now that custom businesses have been implemented I might have a chance. There's a restaurant called Casey's Diner in game, and I'd like to see it added as one of the purchasable properties, because if I were able to purchase it I have plans for it that I think would promote a high standard of RP.

    Here's a picture of the restaurant: https://imgur.com/a/QjFdb7j

    It's located here: https://imgur.com/a/897WNuO

    What my plan would be with this restaurant is to turn it into a retro-Americana styled diner, like you see all over the place in the US. It'd serve greasy spoon staples like different kinds of hamburgers, hot dogs, some sandwiches, chili dogs, french fries, onion rings, fountain soda, milkshakes, etc. Since it's right next to Mirror Park, a large residential area, and right across the bridge from the PD, it's in a prime spot for customers, as both suburban home owners, and police on their breaks could go there to enjoy some quick eats. I'd offer delivery from the restaurant and would hire a delivery driver (or drivers depending on how busy it is.) The diner would have decor to match the theme, as well as playing music from a jukebox (speakers) that would help fit the mood. Players could potentially even pick out a song on the Jukebox from the playlist. Either immediately or somewhere down the line I'd acquire a liquor license for the restaurant so it could serve alcohol, and I'd add a bar to it as well, complete with the necessary staff. The diner would also have promotions and possibly host/sponsor events in the community too, to add even more unique RP to the server. All in all I would make more unique jobs on the server, and add new RP opportunities for both the customers, and the employees at this business, if it were to be added. 

    Here's some pictures of what the restaurant would be styled after, so you can get a rough idea of what it'd look like: https://imgur.com/a/2RSgtqq    https://imgur.com/a/wPCiAj1

    Please +1 this if you'd like to see it on the server

     

  5. Yes things can happen but it feels pretty unfair to punish someone with a 15 minute wait time for something out of their control. If I get smoked by someone running a red light in an intersection I'm crossing, why am I being punished for it and having to sit through the coma? It's not like I wasn't careful and treated my life with disdain.

    Not enough medics: Become one?

    I honestly think a coma is good and should be kept in place. The desync kills are mostly people racing around town with 180+, maybe we should stop doing that now. No speed cameras needed

    People shouldn't have to be something they don't want to be because there aren't enough of them. Some people drive normally and get killed by those people who are doing 180+, how is it the responsible drivers fault that they got killed? Why are they being punished for driving the right way?

    I think it should be removed because I just really don't see the point of it and who it's supposed to be meant for. If a criminal dies they're already punished because they lose their stuff, which can cost them tens of thousands of dollars. If people are constantly trying to death rp you can just say no. It screws over police because now instead of just not being able to answer the call they were at until the NLR timer runs down they won't be able to answer any calls if they die for 15 minutes. If the NLR timer doesn't start until after the coma finishes then they're getting extra fucked and it'll just make the backlog of police calls even worse. With civvies I can sort of see how it's meant to stop people from doing stupid shit like jumping off buildings, but why not just punish them with fail rp like they're supposed to be? If a bunch of criminals come and shoot up and rob Bayview where I work how is it my fault that I died and why should I be prevented from playing because of it? That's also not to mention all the stupid ways people can be killed to, like by desync, rule breakers, and getting in even the smallest of collisions while riding a bike/motorcycle. The only people who should be getting punished for dying are the ones who are intentionally killing themselves in my opinion, since when I was in MD I used to have to deal with those people, and their calls would slow me down and prevent me from getting to other calls. Speaking of which, it's known that we have a problem with a lack of medics. Despite all of MDs hard work sometimes there just isn't anyone to save you, and you shouldn't be punished with an extra 15 minute wait on top of the bleedout time for that. People will also use it to screw over those that they don't like with a 15 minute wait time by finding any reason they can to kill them, just because of an OOC grudge, same as how people screw mess with people by dumping their cars in water. 

    The only somewhat good things I can see coming from this is that maybe it'll stop the FailRPers  who kill themselves constantly, and it might cause PD to fear rp better and we won't have situations where one cop takes on several criminals by themselves because they know their armor will eat the bullets (I haven't been in the criminal scene for a while so I don't know if this is still an issue). 

    In conclusion I think the cons of the coma being introduced will heavily outweigh any positive impact it will have on the server, since the coma seems to insinuate that death is your fault and you should be punished for it since you weren't realistically careful enough with your life, when that's just simply not true for a lot of cases. A game mechanic that prevents you from playing the game isn't a good idea in my opinion. I think the coma should be removed but having the timer reduced and having it only work when there's a certain amount of medics would be a start.
