Astrox Posted May 23, 2019 Report Posted May 23, 2019 Crime Crime is something that haunts this server, and it really makes it either very enjoyable, or very shit. In my personal experience with crime and criminals, there are a few nice, and a lot of dicks. I've been robbed more times then I can count and it's so unrealistic it hurts. There are a few systems that can be put into place that will completely change the economy of the server, change the dynamic, and change the whole RP experience for everyone. 1: Gangs Gangs - they basically control the city at this point, and they can do so because primarily it's a game and with that there are no real world restrictions on how they operate ect. To counter this; Gangs should be an applied for feature, you need to have at least 4 members and apply - in this application to you need to exhibit multiple desirables such as an intent to provide good RP, a lore, future goals and a full set of rules. There should be a set of rules specifically for these gangs, here's an example of a few; To create a gang, you must be able manage your gang properly. Anything that happens in your gang ultimately comes down to you as the leader. If the entirety of a gang is inactive for a month; a verbal warning will be issued. After which, you have ten days to resume activity before the gang is disbanded. You must choose what you want your gang to be, a mafia cannot operate like a street gang, visa versa. Gang wars should also be more regulated, there initially needs to be a good RP reason, and that RP reason needs evidence that will be shown to faction management. During the war, if you are killed you are PK'ed from it and unable to continue fighting it. There are two ways to end a war; Through finding peace, or when one gang completely wipes out the other, if the latter occurs, that gang will be disbanded and a "cadet" or a sub-version of that faction is free to start again. Gangs need to exhibit a higher level of RP than civilians, and that will be determined by faction management. That's all I can really think of for gangs, however I'm sure there is way more. 2: Drugs and Guns. This has probably been suggested, and probably disliked - however this is now at a point where it's needed, mostly for guns. Weapons and Drugs should be imported - not only to a gang or to a specific person, but someone who exhibits consistent good RP as a criminal, and applies with that in hand. Gangs can also have drugs and guns imported, however they can only choose either drugs, or guns, or they can have a gang chopshop, where they receive 10% of all vehicles chopped there. Drugs - Idea 1: The way it would work is; Weed is growable, and you can do weed like you can now, however every other drug is impossible to make, it has to be imported by a gang or supplier. These specific gangs and suppliers cannot sell drugs at the drop off point, they have to sell it to players who can do so. They receive these drugs for free and in return are expected to RP very well. Idea 2: The way it would work is; every drug has an addiction factor, however also have a lot of boosts, drugs are no longer sellable to a drop off point and are all circulated between players. This significantly slows down the drug trade and the economy therefore deflates. Weed: Very low addiction rate (takes a lot of get addicted) - Heals the player completely after consumption. Cocaine: High addiction rate - adds "armour" to the player, making them stronger Meth: Very high addiction rate - the player runs faster, and has added "armour". Heroin: Extremely high addiction rate (addicted from first hit) - the player runs faster, is completely healed, and has full "armour" LSD: Low addiction rate - intense visual changes, makes character stumble, heals health. There are probably more that I'm not mentioning. You should also remember that yes, this will completely change the drug system and make it harder to make money - this is because this is about crime control, and if people don't know how to make money other then grinding the current drug system, then maybe they're better off playing Farming Simulator 2019. Weapons - Weapons are imported by gangs or players in shipments, there is limited stock of weapons and they are only importable once a week. (remember this is per gang/supplier so there is more than these numbers in circulation per week). Pistols (all caliber): 2000x bullets, 20x pistols SMG (all caliber): 3000x bullets, 20x SMGs Shotguns (all caliber): 1000x shells, 15x shotguns Assault rifles (all caliber): 2000x bullets, 10x assault rifles. 3: WANTED! If you are a wanted felon and have not turned yourself in for two days, the police/detectives can freeze your assets, meaning that you have to work with cash, taking loans from your friends ect. This makes it much more realistic and harder for the criminal. 4: Prison Time. Thanks for reading, if you agree with the suggestion LIKE it, or leave a +1, if you don't, then suggest things that you would change; it's undebatable that the crime needs to change. 1

You make drugs Anyone can form a gang, they just won't be official I'm not sure on how weapons work but there's no limit on how many you can import.
