DoubleA

This post will probably not even be read with all of these long posts... EVERYONE is burnt out. Nothing new, rinse and repeat, same people every day. Cops have nothing to do other than wait for a pursuit of a 240 car, cause EVERYONE has a win mentality so crims use the fastest cars they can as well, so any small situation you are gonna have everyone there. More variety of things criminals can do would work wonders because that gives cops more stuff to do as well. Only real changes that can and should be made: -Go back to realistic fear for life. If you are one of the last LEOs alive, instead of saying "fuck it ima take who i can" just leave. And then from the criminal side, don't chase people who decide to choose life. Then from there we can lower the "suppression" shit, because from there you make it simple. Groups who let the people leave don't get suppressed, those who chase down and try to kill everyone get the suppression treatment. -The fleet was alright, i think for supercars n things like that its great, but normal GOB cruisers it just becomes a super pain. Changes should be made to that because the same issues still happen, just makes people do work on the backend. -Helicopters are a very good thing to have in the server. Regardless of what people think. I agree, gunships sometimes are overutilized. Standard helicopters have been a thing and will always be one. Shooting out of the side should only be for pre-determined situations, or for crims that decide to hold a 1 way ladder for the sake of win mentality. Its not a guaranteed win especially with the new FM rules that have been put in place. But having a pilot land and go roof to roof with a sniper, yeah that shouldn't happen. -I made this thread with Demonit at one point.. Charges right now are still the same as they were in 2020(don't quote me, could be later, but its been years) I made it a thought, penal code should reduce all charges by 50%, if not more. The fact every single situation puts you in DOC for 3 hours is just, yeah not good. There was a scene today, one person had a pump shotgun, suppressor, and was cooking. Max sentence. I couldn't knock off charges if I could. The 3 hour sentence cap wouldnt be a huge deal if you actually had to do a bunch of shit to get to that point. I believe a 1 hour/1 hour 30 minute timeframe would work very well. Its not to "streamer server" levels, but honestly I wouldnt even be mad if we got less time and more fines. Since this is such an asset based server, make the money a problem, then people will think more about doing a bunch more shit. Those were my few things, theres definitely more to add but - just for one response, I think there should be a limit to how many units are on at a certain time. How that would be implemented, I'm not sure.. one unit per 5 players wouldnt be the worst thing but how do you really keep that for like PD/SD events, etc. Theres gray area.

Simple - if it happens report it, tazing through a windshield is unrealistic and a play to win mentality. Opening the window and tazing out of the window is a different story but with a moving car shouldnt happen regardless. I always disliked the desync "my windshield is broken" - should just be nothing out the windshield regardless - although argument COULD be made of reaching out and tazing over the mirror forward, that absolutely is valid up close.

keep /license!! +1 or an alternative - make the ID a Physical item locked to your inventory (wont disappear if you die) where you can right click and view if you’re an LEO. Place it in a spot near clothing if you purchase a fake ID, you can show them the fake ID but it would be an item you can lose, so would not be locked. I’d still have to see what this fake ID system is like since I haven’t seen it, just heard and seen pics of it

Bring back the old script alongside the new one, more of an official script for those who are newer and want more of a crisp experience, and let Tequilala be the old run down people do whatever they want kinda deal - keep it as a spot where people cant get robbed. Add an ATM inside and boom. We beg please

I stopped paying for VIP for close to a year now(minus when we had the war), could be less, but for someone who used to be diamond VIP for a few years straight, I found it as a huge slap in the face to see all of the lovely things that are brought to attention of devs/staff just to see NOTHING get done. Sure you re-scripted levels into a few jobs that BOOMED for 2 weeks but now have less than 2-3 people that do them consistently on a daily basis. Instead of focusing on how people can pay more money for a better experience, why not find a way EVERYONE to have a better experience. Because right now, if youre a crim and you dont have VIP, you spend most of your time in DOC AFKing. If you spend $50/month you can basically buy your time which is ridiculous. For a server that used to be about RP and community, the last few years its turned into nothing but asset farming and pay2win shit in the credit store. And yeah, dont get me started on $250 for the best cars in the game.. THAT was what really accelerated the death of the casual player and made this a money hungry server. Set up another community meeting to go over what we should focus on first! I'm sure it'll be well received and actually get something to change! Bring on new devs, constantly bring out new clothing - Bala streams his clothing that he makes, just constantly rotate things in and out every month so there is new things, finish up some of these loose end deals instead of juggling 50 things at once. Then when everything is all good for the major ticket items, you can start looking forward on hey this this and this are the next things were working on, do them one at a time and knock them down. Common Pazz W +1

+1 - every gang that is able to order should have a skin that they attatch to their weapons (changed by leadership in F4 - fall under the same tab that you can edit the gang info, not sure the name) for each weapon. That or admins can set a skin for every org (Rooks for example would probably just be black, but can probably find some cool skin) sad this isn’t a thing yet I feel like this would be so simple - look at LEO /FL menus and those guns come sometimes with camos on them - I’m sure parts of that can be imported over to that script

I don’t have to have people log orders? Sign me tf up. +1

PLEASE fix this... i hate taking a brand new car out of my apartment and having it end up being a mini cooper. Should make this a bug report too tbh get more eyes on it

+1 to it all! There is no reason NOT to have most all of these other than the leaderboard

Having tabbed out was actually really nice to have because you knew when someone wasn’t present, make it toggleable like you used to be able to for those who don’t want to see it! +1 for Harley!

+1 - the change was unnecessary to begin with and I think a lot of people echo that, but since we have gone this far down the rabbit role, the info that was given and the way it was relayed to all players was incorrect, instead of just letting it go, should do something that POSITIVELY effects the community and helps keep people here instead of letting the players down! Great thread Mr. Dox!!!

Solution: All rulebreaker reports go to forums! Think about it, is your .50 really worth writing up an entire report? No? alright lets move on with our day! In game reports should be for questions, glitch reports, and general bug issues. Everyone immediately does /report 4 I WAS DMD!!! Then its "sorry no footage" after someone takes time out of their day! Obviously in some aspects things CAN be handled in game, but my belief is that DM/MG/NRP/Cheating reports should all go to forums. Bigger things like a mass DM happening, a dude thats sitting there screaming the N word at people drunk off their ass, absolutely that can and should be handled immediately.

@Marksy might be the goat, not sure, but might be… a lot of those points are super correct, and I think that from someone who mained PD for years, then mained crim for years, then have gone to more of a 50/50, LEO RP is very fun because you can go into most any situation and just enjoy it, take things off of people, not lose anything, getting money in the meantime that I never use on anything but the casino or a house I never use. the culture of the server when it comes to MOST(not all) LEOs is log in at the station, clock on, patrol, clock off, log off in the locker room. That’s a problem in itself as well. while on the crim side, things are just sooo stale. Here’s what happens in the minds of criminals these days: •Log on // check freqs // get a kit // roll labs // fight // get 3rd partied by cops(whether at the fight or later) // go to DOC for 3 hours because basically every situation ends in 3 hours now // AFK the time // get out // repeat. but I don’t want to do that! Okay… •Log on // there’s an event! // go to it // /anim dance2 for 2 hours while scrolling your phone the entire time there’s a large inbalance of money distribution - why is it I cook for 20 minutes and make 45k, after materials it’s probably more around 25-30k, or I can rob a damn bank, and get 30k per person… what?? How does that make sense… alright fine maybe I’ll go chop with my friends. Damn I made 6k for a car that took me 10 minutes! I hope you don’t get removed and I hope you stay! Even for one of the oldest factions in the server it’s sooo difficult to motivate people, especially when all of us have done everything there is to offer in the server for years. big ups brother, will 100% miss you if you do go

the issue with this is when you take a hostage from your own gang... that people know are a part of your gang, then complain "how did you know" I got a NRP for taking Harley as a hostage as a last resort, I just think those should be dished out more to people who do that kinda stuff. Realistically the server is small, its the same people that make/comment on posts, the same people you see on a daily basis, there is not a lot of parody that you see. Recently someone did a bank with someone we know as a member because we just arrested them together last week, and they complained how did you know and reported.

Or how about the whole "we have a hostage" just to pull more packs then sprint out and ignore 20 guns pointed at them?? I think that banks aren't that great, they're very much repetitive and the same stuff happens in them. I feel it would be so much better to script in some other entrances, other bank interiors, something that looks new, because these are all the same and still stale. Like you said, especially hostage RP. Even with our most recent war, there really never is a reason to take someone hostage, it's just "were gonna take you as a hostage" and you bring them there, everybody but one person gets away, and we all live happily ever after
