It essentially removes any form of cash flow that once came from that system, leaving yet another gap in criminal rp. It would make rp sense that each "official faction" has their own supply line as each of them comes from different back stories and locations e.g. Zetas importing from Mexico, Triads importing from China and so on. Overall with the moving ammo to private supplies I personally believe that aspects of the old import system should be brought back. The big red containers would vastly improve ammo delivery rp and changes it from 1 person required to get a drop to a whole gang potentially as there are multiple crated to unload. If the old system was to be implemented, it would be highly beneficial that the order could pick their location dynamically literally anywhere that correlates to their import method, e.g. If you use boat import to a dock, or a plane to an airstrip. Following with this PD could get a similar system where instead of the exact location of the drop being given, they'd receive a radius circle of where the drop may be in (like phone tracing) , bringing some actual detective rp when it comes to locating the drop. +1
JakeInnit_ Posted February 5, 2020 Report Posted February 5, 2020 This has been an issue since at least March last year +1 again

This is a critical change that would highly improve the criminal lifestyle, as currently ammo and drugs are our only viable criminal activities, which have almost diminished fully themselves. +1 Again We would love a change in the purpose of providing more quality RP from the criminal side
alexalex303 Posted February 5, 2020 Report Posted February 5, 2020 This should have probably been the original implementation of the system, but let's at least make it a good update to the system please. +1
Cjeet Posted February 5, 2020 Report Posted February 5, 2020 Cant count how many times we were talking about these changes. It's about damn time for some import changes. HUGE +10

Nova Zhou Posted February 5, 2020 Report Posted February 5, 2020 Mega +1, like Bruce said, the laptop is in a worse state now than it was even one month ago. Making this change could significantly impact RP for the better among PD, Criminal factions, and even those outside of illegal factions. Crim life needs a refresh as a whole, but this is a fantastic place to start and definitely a step in the direction the criminal population is looking for to improve the quality of life in general.
Neophite Posted February 5, 2020 Report Posted February 5, 2020 All in all I give it a +1 I am not too familiar with the importing laptops. With that being said I think it is more of a balance issue with as to why they had it the way they have it now. This new way would do the some of these following things. Imagine from a police stand point that it increases crime and gang wars, although those are fun RPs it gets repetitive. From a gang point this raises 2 sides, first being good because it increases RP situations and like you said so they can focus more on RPing rather than resupplying. But it also means that more gangs have guns with ammo so it makes having loaded guns redundant and doesn't have as much RP value. I believe that the RP reason for implementing it in this way it is now is that the developers didn't expect the bigger gangs to ally or team up so it would be more of the gangs that attack each other for the ammo and guns. But I do believe that adjusting to it this way would help the over all RP quality and RP situations in the server as a whole and not just gangs but people that buy supply off the gangs would also be able to not have to wait and be able to get it there on the spot. So it raise the over all RP scenarios for the server as a whole.
