Gonna be missing the good times, it was a blast!

I think we all criminals can appreciate the fact that you spent hours drafting this thread and aiming for a solution to balance off the crim/legal, as of right now it's unfair and it's been demotivating a lot of people that are more invested in the illegal side of roleplay. Thanks Bala. Now we can just hope that it just becomes practical so that we can get back to enjoying the server once again. I really like the ideas provided. I hope the developers find these ideas versatile and implement them in the server.

+1 I really like some of the suggestions made by them.

Seems like you got it figured out.

That one sentence is what you read out of his 1355 words argument, of him trying to find a compromise which can already be predicted, is failing by so far because you're not willing to make compromises for players to enjoy their gameplay on the server. The fact that a detective cruiser would just follow you around whilst you're driving following the road rules & regulations and then pull you over when you go 5 over the limit or run a speed light, or fail to yield apparently, is unrealistic if you ask me. There are different tiers of gangs, some are strong, some are weak, the weak ones you can pressure down and keep them under a rule of thumb but the ones of high scale such like the gangs that have official access/cartel access, that can import a stream of heavy artillery and whatnot should be considered armed & dangerous to even approach but the fact that we cannot attack the police officers makes them think we're such idiots with no power, so they just pull over and they just dominate you with their heavy voices "Step out of the vehicle or you will be forced out the vehicle, I'm asking you last time." Say you do that infront of a gang member with mad connections IRL, you'll be wishing it ends well for you IRL but in here there's no connections & ties to a character, it's one person behind their computer screen playing a character with nothing to lose, while we have a lot to lose in that situation, the money we spend, the time we spend doing numerous things to get that grind going, but all you have to do is just order us to step out of the vehicle or force will be used, and there goes the whole gang v. PD mentality, that you've gotta stack charges against the person. Lately I've had so many gang meetings interpreted by PD, fact is out of 10 meetings only 1 or 2 have been successful without PD just jumping in there and ruining everything while a gang's just trying to create RP ops. Now that right there I believe is piss poor RP standards, fact is we're just stood at a piece of land, most likely a private property not hurting or harming anyone. It's a gang meeting, all armed & dangerous to approach, which I'd think the PD would apply the mentality that it's too risky to approach, due to the fact that we're possibly armed however we're not directly endangering any human population at that point it's just us trying to talk things out, they still think pushing in is a smart idea. Now in a situation like that, there's no winning due to the fact that PD are armed with heavy weapons all of them, they get them for free and the armor they're strapped with is just mad good. They would tank your bullets and before you know it, you run out of bullets. If I look at pictures of police officers, they wear light plate carriers that go below their shirt, the one that's 50 armor in the game, they do not wear a giant vest strapped to their body just for regular patrol, only some of them do, which in this case every patrol officers do have them strapped to their chest making them a tank to bullets being fired at them. We've made so many compromises over the time, I cannot even say made actually, we were forced to make as we weren't provided any say in things, such like the tables just exploding extremely randomly if we had to consider one example. I had 40 tables blow up on me before it even let out one batch as I had just started cooking, even before it could brew a batch of drugs, there goes 320k worth of tables at the rate of 8k$ per table, ingredients worth over 100k, water bottles, the briefcases, all adding them up to over 450-500k worth of items just lost there, which wouldn't be the opportunity of every crim to get them at that rate. They've gotta go through gangs which then charge commission so if it's 10k per table, that's 100k for 10 tables already and 10 tables is a really slow production time, so that means more chances for them to blow up and so on. I know all these points are going to be negated, but if you have a moment to think about them and put yourself in the position we're in, you might actually understand what I'm trying to imply. Thanks for reading.

Looking good!

+1 Agreed

Critical Injury It was just a regular day for Kevin, just letting the day carry itself out and let all the events of the day play out as it went along. However, on a call for assistance by one of his family members in the Goblins he got pulled over, for something rather petty, however Kevin made a really bad decision just then and decided to evade. He figured he could make a run for it and get away, however what he did not anticipate that he could be faced with a challenge that he would not be able to keep up with. He was driving as fast as he could to book it away from the line of pursuit behind him, but he couldn’t gain a proper distance. He decided to take them down a sketchier route and try to trick them, however on his way there he saw a lot of flashing lights bouncing off his side-mirror that were blinding him and obstructed his view of the road which caused him to take a really harsh turn down the bridge at Chiliad. That harsh turn made his vehicle jump right off the cliff and then spun all the way down the cliff - spinning up and down all the way down, getting impacted by the vehicle severely. Luckily there was a ridge on that rather steep hill that got a hold of his vehicle and stopped it right there just then. Kevin was knocked out unconscious due to all the collisions and the rolls in the vehicle, he was faced with a deep bruise on his forehead that kept bleeding out for quite a bit before being stabilized. An engine unit from the Fire Department responded and managed to stabilize his vehicle and transport Kevin on an even ground to remove the risk of him tripping down the steep hill along with his car and catching on fire or from receiving any fatal injuries. The police tended to his wounds just about, but due to limitations of Medical Staff he was not taken care of properly and was directly transported to the DOC Infirmary for treatment. Kevin was imprisoned for two years in the DOC for those charges Kevin’s injuries were looked at by DOC in their facility while he was serving his sentence; he had not gained conscious for about a month or two during his time at the prison, when he woke up he was feeling pretty weak since he had lost a lot of blood. It was more like fighting a lost battle, it was a miracle Kevin pulled through he suffered a bit of internal injuries aswell due to the impact. He had lost recollection of any events leading up to the events or the event itself. It was a rough time for Kevin. After paying his debt to the society, he was let go from DOC and his belongings were returned back to him, which he did not have any idea he had.

Could've just been a glitch I suppose. Do a /report and ask for it to be sent to Mors since it's unreachable.

Could you share your solution if you don't mind? I can see there are other people with the same problem, if you would like to share the solution that fixed it for you that would be appreciated, you can do so here on this thread:

In low-end PCs you'd be lucky to have consistent FPS in GTA 5, since I'm having trouble keeping my FPS stable while I have a decent PC now. When I had a low-end PC, I had somehow managed to adjust my settings to get me a consistent 50-60 FPS and I was more than grateful for that because it removed the stuttering from the equation, but I cannot recall which video tutorial I had followed, there are a lot of them available on YouTube and Google so maybe you could consult them. Some of them are really useful and some of them barely show you any improvement to be honest.

Did you make sure to check your windows microphone settings, going into app volume and device preferences and changing the input device if it's not properly set? Also, sometimes your Rage Multiplayer could have a seperate input device on it's own that might also clutter with it so you can adjust it from the Rage Multiplayer menu, click the volume mixer type of icon on the top bar and map your proper input device and try again.
