Hello everyone,

I've been playing on this server for quite some time now and this is my favorite life server by far. The thing i like the most about this server is the variety of things you can do like; Capturing cartels, Drug running, selling drugs, robbing the bank/Federal reserve, Bounty hunting, Hunting etc.

After experiencing all these things, i've came up with some ideas to share with you guys. Some are better then others. The server is great as it is, but these things may make it even better.

Activities:

  1. Drug-running missions in land vehicles. (Player gets sent on a risky mission to get drugs from location A to location B (Random?) The vehicle that must be used is slow, so it would be smart to have someone to watch your back)
  2. Players can put a hit on someone, and every rebel who has the hitman talent can take it. (The player who has been targeted will get a notification about the hitman)
  3. Street races where everyone can bet money. (Normal cars instead of karts)
  4. An option to play as a pilot. (People can request an aircraft) (More reward as a taxi driver in general)
  5. Being able to be/hire a bodyguard?
  6. Maybe more end game activities? (Maybe a gang can request some sort of AI escorting mission, that everyone on the server can try to sabotage)

Small things:

  1. It would be great if your plane had a different skin when drug running, because i always get shot at when just flying a normal plane.
  2. More free/casual clothing skins for RP
  3. More van colours available in the shop 

Glitches:

  1. When players want to buy a cargo van (Without windows) at the truck shop, it says it holds 6 players but it only holds 2 for now. (Please make it 6 again) 
  2. When pressing sit on some chairs you get stuck and have to re-log. (I've only experienced it with the Weight bank)

Probably too big :

  1. More house customization for RP (It would be so awesome to fill your house with furniture and maybe even place a personal ATM or garage)

 

That's it folks! Let me know what you think. I'm not expecting any of this to be implemented but i thought some of these we're pretty dope. 

See you in Altis

Forum likes does not describe how long you have played the server nor forum posts.Someone don't spend too much time on the forums.I appreciate your time and effort on making this thread but most of the things are a bit ambitious.

  • Why not run drugs yourself?.I mean i am pretty sure if you grab a Hemit and go do meth someone will come after you.If you finish it you made a good money.If you dont well try again?
  • Thats just another way of describing a bounty hunter system
  • Already there nobody does it
  • No thanks.Already have medics blowing up kavala.But you can surely buy a jet from the airshop and buy and fly it youself.
  • You would have to contact our Paint rep @Gen. Henry Arnold he makes some good skins but i doubt people are interested on plane skins for Ceasar B something
  • Already there but just behind loot crate keys
  • @Gen. Henry Arnold has already made some good Van skins.
  • End game missions like as AI missions?.Thats just doesn't sound right.I rather go to Kavala than fight AI if you get what i mean
  • House customization +1.But i doubt its any use nor will anyone waste their cash or time on decorating their houses.
  • Glitches can be reported via forums

  • Making and selling drugs at the drug dealer is fun and all, but i really like the idea of just transporting it like doing it with the drug-runs. I find it kinda relaxing, and sometimes you encounter threats. Imagine having to travel across the map with a Hemit for a big payout. Figuring out the best route to go to that place and have your friends protect the goods.

  •  Yes, but a hunting system for rebels. Imagine this: A player doesn't like a particular person and isn't able to kill him himself, now he can place a hit for as much money he'd like to spend. The hitman can accept the job and try to earn some easy (or not so easy) money. It's a good way to help less skilled players kill their enemy and it's a new way rebels can play.

Already there nobody does it

  • I mean illegal street races with hatchback sports and a better payout. Is that already in the server? If so i'm going to check it out! (I think you mean the race events that start now and then)

  • I get that terrorists are a huge problem for the server, but i sometimes i get stranded or want to go some place fast. I'd like to see the taxi feature improved so that more people will use it / request one.

  • End game missions like as AI missions?.Thats just doesn't sound right.I rather go to Kavala than fight AI if you get what i mean
  • With end game missions i mean something like the bank robbery. Escorting a "person/AI/Object" to a place and make it visible on the map. Other players get a reward if they kill/destroy it. And when the escort is successful there's a huge payout.

I was wrong when i said the thing i liked most about the server we're the activities. The RP is by far the most important thing for me. Everything that can improve that aspect is worth it.

I get that the server needs donations to keep it running, but i like seeing variety on the roads and players. It would be awesome if the vans just had some basic extra colours instead of orange. Just add white/black/green or something.

 

A lot of these things are really ambitious but i'd thought it wouldn't hurt to share my ideas :)

    1. This actually sounds kinda cool in some ways, but at the same time... just run drugs
  2. Players can put a hit on someone, and every rebel who has the hitman talent can take it. (The player who has been targeted will get a notification about the hitman)
    1. Rich players would just constantly put hits on people they don't like, making it impossible for them to get anything done
  3. Street races where everyone can bet money. (Normal cars instead of karts)
    1. Races died for a reason, no one really wants to spend time on them, and the payout was awful
  4. An option to play as a pilot. (People can request an aircraft) (More reward as a taxi driver in general)
    1. Taxi system should be buffed and reward based on time, but people don't really make taxi calls as is, so could always RP and ask for $$$
  5. Being able to be/hire a bodyguard?
    1. RP it
  6. Maybe more end game activities? (Maybe a gang can request some sort of AI escorting mission, that everyone on the server can try to sabotage)
    1. Yeah that's probably too much, I'm sure there would be all sorts of exploits and strains on the server

Small things:

  1. It would be great if your plane had a different skin when drug running, because i always get shot at when just flying a normal plane.
    1. Do people actually fly planes for fun? That's what Jets are for.
  2. More free/casual clothing skins for RP
    1. Gotta make $ somehow
  3. More van colours available in the shop 
    1. There are a good few skins thanks to @Gen. Henry Arnold, and you can always donate for more, though I agree there should be more base colors that aren't horrifically ugly

Glitches:

  1. When players want to buy a cargo van (Without windows) at the truck shop, it says it holds 6 players but it only holds 2 for now. (Please make it 6 again) 
    1. Passenger van and Cargo van, one has 6 seats, one has 2?
  2. When pressing sit on some chairs you get stuck and have to re-log. (I've only experienced it with the Weight bank)
    1. Never had that happen, you can always smash the keyboard and get back on your feet but maybe I'm lucky

Probably too big :

  1. More house customization for RP (It would be so awesome to fill your house with furniture and maybe even place a personal ATM or garage)
    1. Furniture has been shot down many times, but you could buy a house with an ATM on it or nearby, and buy a garage nearby, I've bought houses just for the beach view or proximity to a Church for RP

 

That's it folks! Let me know what you think. I'm not expecting any of this to be implemented but i thought some of these we're pretty dope. 

See you in Altis

True, maybe add a time-limit or player-limit?

That's the reason i thought it could be improved, but you're probably right...

Nobody calls taxis probably because the system sucks IMO. Maybe if it gets buffed, players will use it more often

  1. RP it

RP is awesome but it needs to have some kind of structure. Can you imagine to RP capping a Cartel / Robbing a bank without any kind of system?

  1. Do people actually fly planes for fun? That's what Jets are for.

I actually love to fly in Arma. I've bought a joystick for it.

Quote
    1. Gotta make $ somehow

Completely understandable

Quote
  1. Passenger van and Cargo van, one has 6 seats, one has 2?

When buying a Cargo van the description says 6 seats. And in the past it has been 6.

Even the good ol' keyboard spam won't save ya

Understandable since it's probably pretty hard/laggy to script for MP

Thanks for your time, Trotfox.

Would something like that have a huge impact on the server performance? And i'm not sure, but maybe they could just use almost the same script as drug running and tweak it.

+1 on the first one I always thought we should have a form of trucking missions. but... the servers eh?

That's the point of the land DP missions, which are being looked into for some fixes for next patch possibly.

Oh please those dp missions are shit cash. Lots of servers have trucking missions trafficing different things legal and illegal

Idk but we are all focused on server preformance fixes before this community sees new changes like this
