Further Adjust the COST of safes (And maybe add a bigger safe than the Green one)

Recommended Posts

Howdy, This isn't going to be a giant controversial suggestion (Unless you're just a drama queen)

My idea is simple: Adjust the price of either the Wall Safe or the Int Safe 1 to be more in line with the cost of the other.

Currently, Wall Safes cost $1200. That entails 6 slots and 30 volume. The Int Safe 1 costs $20000 and that entails 12 slots and 200 volume.

Now, Putting it very simply, The Server Economy, as has been noted, and is seemingly being worked on, is currently in shambles.
A wall safe being 1200 is fine, However the trade off with the Int Safe 1 taking more space, and costing 16 times more than the Wall safes is frankly.... only going to cause people to complain further about how bad the economy is screwed and how they're supposed to store large quantities of stuff and all that.

I'm sure there are arguments that can be made as to why 16 times the price for only 6 times the storage volume and 2 times the space makes sense, but to me.... That doesn't make any whatsoever.

In addition, We recently lost the ability to use Vending Machines as Illegal Storage. Many people enjoyed the ability to store SO MUCH in one spot, even at 200 volume.

As it stands, Crates cannot be stored either without a 20k investment, or keeping them in your vehicle trunk. Many people for one reason or another, do keep their crates, be it for moving large quantities of items, or storing items in like a Russian nesting doll.

I believe that the price of the Int Safe 1 should be brought in line with the magnitude of improvement over the Wall safes now, and that would should get another safe that has not only a larger slot number (I'd prefer the same number of slots as a bag or a crate) but also has an increased amount of volume that it can hold.
 

"It doesn't make sense to have larger safes" but au contraire, The risk included in this, is having all your eggs in one (or fewer) baskets.

It not only makes it easier for your ENTIRE stash of valuables to go missing (read: get stolen) but it also allows for easier organization, and overall quality of life.

Cost could be managed a bit to make them more in line with each other, sure.

In terms of adding a bigger safe I disagree, specifically "safe". The 2 options there are pretty decent, and if the price was balanced a little more you have a good 2 options for securing things.

A storage item that's like a more static crate like pictured below as a furniture item that can store a hefty load (either slots, weight, or both) BUT be unprotected by codes would be good. Using vending machines as storage was great, the un-breakable aspect was shit but the volume and slots were so good for organising and bulk storage.

Plenty of potential options here: https://gtahash.ru/?s=crate

I'd personally use it as temporary storage for furniture over weeks of building personally, and I'm sure it could be useful to criminals also who want to bulk store and care a bit less about security.

Just FYI, the t-shirt shelves have 100 vol with 6 slots for less than the wallsafe..

In all fairness though, the wall safes were abused by everyone, people smashing them on every wall in their to have a lockable storage space that worked like a Tardis. I think the big safe could be a little cheaper, but would also very much like to see other types of storage than what is already there.
