Reevesy202 Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) This is a fun addition but it pays so little so why not increase the price but add a % chance that the shop clerk will pull out a shotgun and shoot you (I'm sure AI have perfect sync). (providing only 2 go in to the store to rob it, any more than that and AI will break FailRP) Edited July 19, 2017 by Reevesy202 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isBrainDed Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Instead of killing you, make it so it shoots bean bag so you just lay there incapacitated like Guy when he switches his pills for sugar ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except the last part of it.. It alerts the cop and a medic, which also gives for more RP. If the medic gets there first and someone is down but his accomplice is there, the accomplice could potentially rp an amazing scenario and get the medic to call the officer to say the man died on scene or take the medic hostage / threaten to kill the medic if he doesn't get him and his friend to the hospital as fast as possible.

Andor Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Why hasnt this been implimented yet? Seriously you get like 50 dollar from robbing a store and with everything costing a shit ton on the server compared to that well who is going to risk the money. About the clerk shooting you, i think thats not needed if the pd shows up and does the same 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoloSmith Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 With the increase in jail times, they really should increase the reward for robbery. As it stands right now the armed robbery and potential other charges far outweigh the benefits. Armed Robbery - 105 Minutes, $2,000. And that's without throwing on Brandishing a Firearm, license violations, felony evasion and driving charges if you evade. The amount earned from a robbery should be equal to the risk, but they should also impose restrictions. Can't rob a store unless X amount of cops are online otherwise early morning hours will be ridiculous. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently it's definitely not worth it to rob a store, if anything it's currently done by new players or people that want police to come after them. I've seen this system before on different occasions, where the reward is higher but also has more restrictions, like in this case being unable to rob a store if there's less than X cops online. +1, with Smith's idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple Seven Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) Store robberies should indeed only be possible with a number of cops on and should be more rewarding. However, it should also be limited in number of criminals that participate, otherwise it would turn to all out war if cops arrive at a store that is being robbed. Punishment should not be equal to profit per se. That is the risk that comes with crime. Edited September 18, 2017 by Triple Seven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, improve your recruitment and faction to cover more timezones. Lack of cops means bad department IRL and boosts crime rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a very big difference between lesser police numbers because of budget cuts and the political environment, and 0 officers responding to dangerous felony calls. The server isn't 24/7 heavily populated so you cannot expect just one faction to be. PD recruitment is fine, just don't call the entire department racist during your interview ;) Edited September 18, 2017 by SoloSmith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, it works to such a great extent that it makes sure people who call us racist and lazy during their job interview do not get in. There is nothing wrong with PD recruitment. Thank you.

Way to mix IC and OOC. I hold no grudges about getting denied. I stayed true to my IC character, which is emotional and bitchy snowflake who usually says something and regrets it later. But if recruitment works fine, then why does getting interview take (3!) days? Other people have said the same, 2-3 days. Who has time to idle in your TS for 3 days straight? (not being afk that is) It didn't take more then hour, you're telling me during 72 hours PD has hard time finding 1-2 hours to spend properly interviewing applicants? Sorry, that is just lazy. 48 minutes ago, SoloSmith said: There is a very big difference between lesser police numbers because of budget cuts and the political environment, and 0 officers responding to dangerous felony calls.

One cop online is enough to stop a robbery in progress, it doesn't have to be heavily overpowered situation, mere sight of the PD should deter criminals from committing crimes. Let's say you attack the intervening cop, your face gets caught in the dash camera and when more cops log in, you have a mission to track the suspects down.Guys, I don't want OOC beef, it was just my opinion.

Dashingly Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 +1 up it from 4-12$ each tick to 20-40$ (who's grabbing the singles when robbing a store?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andor Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 I would suggest having the stores on a timer, they are capped out at 1k or maybe 2k and then when they get robber they refill overtime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
