I've yet to receive proper explanation why unarmed, while related to the situation, posed zero threat individuals were gunned down besides the fact that myself and one other were involved in the escalation. Therefore the entire group had valid DM rights against all of my group and they got gunned down similar to SEALs against innocent civilians. It implies a precedent.

Given the conclusion of this report and it's subsequent appealed denial, do DM rights transfer to a group? I was under the impression that DM rights are on an individual basis.

I was told that this was intended behavior. I successfully picked the lock in one try. I did not have VOIP running. I'm unsure about the step forward.

I was told specifically that time did not matter either. I was hitting the house at 01:00.

There's zero point to the noise and timed system if house robberies are just going to trigger the alarm at random anyways. Just had one trigger on me within 30 seconds of entering the house and was told it was intentional.

It's a "need to win" mentality to reach for something in your ear while having multiple barrels of high powered rifles printed at you. EDIT: To further clarify on this point, as I think it's a good opportunity to do so. The "need/play to win" mentality is something that definitely exists on the server. But It's a two-way street. Work smarter. Change freqs \before\ you get caught or be extremely careful. (also, i don't think LEOs care about john random's freq)

Things like investigation/crime report updates, impound support requests, general inquiries so on, are needlessly difficult to make. Even if you clearly state it's non an emergency in your 911 call you have a 90% chance of getting cited even though there is no option for a non-emergency call.

@XozaJust got cited 'misuse of a gov. hotline' for the following. :/

I'd rather the command system with the taco truck be gone all together. You can't even tell how much you're paying. Why not just use the already existing Store UI/system, and basically just make the taco truck a store on wheels?

I agree a lot with the above. The criminal buff has made just about every activity actually worth it, and I'm glad that marked money is more so a bonus rather than detracting from the actual value, so it doesn't really force you to go and contest laundromats. Robbing just about anyone who breathes in a public lab is an issue that will always perpetuate the server I think.

+1 If anything the years method ruins immersion more so.

We've been told by staff we cannot place props in the courtyard. :c

:nodders: Fair enough, thought more was done to it than that. I'm gonna go around trying to find more comparisons, but I don't like the "cleanup" approach to actively used properties that were bought with that exterior in mind.

@Victor Einhart Before update/GTA SP. After update. Both of these are known Gang HQs that were selected for their original looks in mind.

Personally, my gang's HQ had all map decoration removed but we're also told we cannot re-add our own decoration. It now looks like a Minecraft house.

Multiple exteriors had their character stripped away or removed outright in favor of "cleanliness" or "modernization". Places that have much nicer exteriors than what they had before don't have better interiors to match. Designers with probably triple digit years of experience worked to make these places the way they were. This is not to undermine the hard work of Bala, but I believe more consideration should've went into this update.

Go fuck yourself, holy shit. Actual Bezos behavior. ((This post was made by an anonymous member!))

Retracting my previous -1 in favor of a +1. Came from a salty crim perspective which is no good. I agree with pay raises, especially for the "support" factions like DOC and MD. But I also agree that this may inflate the economy even further and that a global scale back would be nice but likely cause more salt.

-1.

Speaking from experience here, we've done at least 6 stores a night two nights in a row and only had about 25% of people get caught. And that's usually cause we fuckin' around.

I forget even the name, but that one huge store out in the far side of the map by the ocean would be a good one!

+1.

The problem I have personally, is that while I'm not a big fan of private labs myself, these update(s) do nothing but harm for smaller groups/solos. Smaller groups and solos have no chance at even breathing at these public labs without getting nailed to a cross. Is there anything planned to help this?

Cooking is AFK. Watching Netflix and clicking buttons isn't RP or gameplay. PD/SD does have low periods, but they also have to respond to 50 shootouts in an hour. The constant salary accounts for this and the highs and lows.

I agree but also don't. A lot of the bad blood between gangs is needless and usually a result of things like lab fights. It's really not hard to come to an arrangement and it happens in the underworld a lot.
