Lol. Relax, simply pointing out you don't know everything even though you have that attitude. Good luck with the auction.

380k and tobytron me or anyone in ascention has not seen you on the server before how about you show proof you have enough money to pay for what your offering.
Fwiw I've been here for over a year and a half and have never used "blinky" as my In game name...just sayin. Doesn't mean he's not trolling the bids though.

+1 for a cheaper .50 . I can't remember the last time I saw one and I'm under the impression it's just not worth the risk considering how fragile and expensive they are. I'd suggest between $75k-$100k.
Edit: while we're on the topic, how would everyone feel if a armed quilin was added?

I think some people are getting their hopes up too much about being able to sell their dupe unwanted skins..They're pretty unwanted throughout the entire community. Your beiber skins and pony shirts are going to stay listed for days and days and if they sell, it's going to be for $.05 or less... that's my prediction anyway unless there's something I'm missing.
Why not just have decent + awesome skins all around instead of crap skins + awesome skins? I would buy keys if I knew I was getting something cool regardless if low or high tier.

Can someone link me or give me some more info about the red names/ aggression system?
If someone's name is red does that mean we can shoot at them without initiation? I've been away for a little bit but quite a few times recently I'll be in town and see people with red names for no reason that I can think of. Like I'll be running to one of the vendors and pass by somebody who's name is red even though I haven't shot at anyone or been shot at. I'm not in a gang either so it isn't because of a gang war.
I've also been shot without initiation and the other player claimed my name was red so he didn't have to say anything even though I wasn't aggressive to anyone prior and nobody was aggressive to me.

I can imagine people who spent $50+ waiting to sell all the bieber clothing they got
How is this going to work though, being that the Asylum community is nowhere the size of other games+steam marketplace.
Example, you, me, and 500 other people go to sell our beiber shirts which ends up being 1500 beiber shirts for sale. How many people are in this community? Who's gonna buy them when most people already have it? The only items I see having success are the desirable ones unless I'm missing something here?

I agree that this is needed, I'm just concerned that it will throw off the cop/rebel balance. Nice suggestion otherwise
There's some details that could be worked on. This is just a broad suggestion.
For example, we could have regular 1 ply tissues for $1 each and then special aloe infused 2 ply Kleenex brand for say $5 each. It would be embarrassing for a rebel to go home with a dry red nose which would in turn throw off balance.

Career cop fo sho
Not a career cop. Faar from it. Instead of verbally offering a make believe tissue like I always do, I'd like to actually be able to give them one. That way they will see "Blinky has given you 1 tissue"

A suggestion to add digital tissue pixels for the salty players who don't stop crying and bitching.

I suggest tissues, preferably Kleenex brand with aloe, are added to all police HQ. It would be nice to have a model of a tissue box on the dispatch desk as well. That way when cops are busy processing someone and there's a small child/man crying in HQ they can be directed to the desk and at least wipe their tears and boogers before speaking with an officer. A lot of people come into, or are brought into HQ and it's nothing but tears and waterworks.
Also, make tissues purchasable by police at HQ similar to donuts and coffee. I can't tell you how many times I could have given somebody a tissue that was in need but I was nowhere near HQ.
Finally, I believe every prisoner should be given 1 tissue in their inventory for free when first entering jail.
Thanks.

Sorry, I should have commented my thoughts since I asked the question.
I'm enjoying the new map, it's a nice fresh change. There is something off about it though compared to Altis, but I need more time in Tanoa to say for sure. I hope it remains at least semi popular though. Tanoa definitely looks nice and has more eye candy, but that doesn't mean better. I wouldn't say it's a plused version of Altis, or Altisx2 or anything. It's just something different and nice because it's official BIS and not a mod.
I agree about the distance between points. Not so much when driving because of the winding roads, but when flying the map doesn't seem nearly as large as it does when you open the map and look at it.
-
How are you guys liking the new map? Not only as a life map, but in general. Do you think it will hold up and stay populated once the hype dies down? Think it will give Altis a run for it's money? I'm Curious what everyone's thoughts are.

Already unsubscribed and deleted the mods. On average there are 15 or less players on S6..not worth the 40gb it takes up on my ssd. I would entertain the idea of re-downloading if some major changes. Was a refreshing change from altis (at first)
Suppose i'm part of the problem now..

What's up with the same spawn location in every town?

Really good points one of the major things I did not understand is why only 1% of vehicles and guns were added. Whats the point of having mods if we dont utilize most of them.
I did a write about this as well, so many guns are missing, so many helicopters are missing.
because then you can release this content in a few weeks when current content gets old and stale and everyone gets hyped saying "new content! new guns" meanwhile they have always been there..just locked.
Why haven't you played on S6 yet, or even logged into it?

I don't even know anymore, and I feel like things have been on a steady decline since December. As I see server 6 in it's current state, and patch history, I'm not so sure it was wise to release a modded server with so much else going on; s1-4 /Identity. Some of these decisions just plain confuse me to the point I feel resentful to these servers (example, fucking fishing is still broken. Instead we got bluevein wheels; which were broken, then patched, then still broken, then finally fixed. These cars are also mostly garbage, so what was the point?) When you realize the one changing these things, the one dev, really doesn't even play this game, so realistically you can't be that surprised. It's like things that work need to constantly be changed, only until the community expresses their dislike, and then they are "returned" in a roundabout, not the same way that no one is happy with.

Never had any framerate issues or really bothered with lack of scopes etc...I had a problem with how little money you made for how much effort you had to put in.
I loved the map, I loved the mods, I just thought it was a complete oversight that money was the same value in Australia as it was for Altis, despite the distances travelled and, by association, the risk involved were much larger. If the prices were tweaked to accurately refelct the risk/reward/effort involved, I know my friends and I would start playing again. As it stands, it's not worth it. I won't play the modded Altis version as I hate the map wholly.As an FYI, there is a USA map on the workshop btw, if you wanted to try that one, but I think if you made those changes to Straya, it'd get populated again.
$45 wageis a joke as an example, where most servers offer $500-$1000 every 5 minutes.
If you increase the value of cash, it means a WHOLE lot more when you lose it as it's such a grind to get it back, whereas on other AL servers, where cash is easy enough to come by (do one heroin run, have enough for a helicopter kind of level) and therefore the back and forth of losing this vehicle, getting robbed for this and that isn't as frustrating as it is in Straya. I don't play games I don't enjoy.

20 minutes ago, Mr. Meeseeks said:^ this is the truth! why make a server where making money is more of a chore then making money IRL i never really understood that cause atm all the servers are really low pop besides like server 4 but either way the servers are decreasing in pop and we can't blame The devision cause that shit isn't hype no more! I all honesty if they made it easier to make cash and did something about money cap people would come back to asylum.
P.s i know some of you may disagree but this is my opinion on why the servers are so low pop lately!
There's also another problem that ties into this: the fact money doesn't transfer between servers. In order to get ahead in Asylum, you basically need 2 lives, in game life and IRL. With the addition of Aussie and it's grind of starting over, it's not surprising people just stick with Altis where they have everything(especially will all the examples in this thread, performance etc)
FWIW I tried out probably the second most popular altis life servers. I'm not sure all the prices of everything, but I did 1 weed run in a HB~ 176k. For comparision a HB Sport was around 35k, rooks 5k, PDW 10k. So 1 weed run and I was able to buy some things. Asylum? 1 weed run in a small car ~ 10k, and we all know that wont buy shit. The weed run also took less time than an asylum weed run and was basically auto gather...and was in a much more secluded place, not a wide open RDM zone.
I do enjoy server 6, but now that the numbers are getting so low, I just jump on altis. Looking past the problems, I do enjoy the freshness of Aussie, but when I see no more than 15-30 people on over the course of a few hours I just keep joining Altis. Don't want to play on a dead life server.

- People want scopes on Australia, RCO, MRCO, ARCO.
- People want armored vehicles. Ifrits, Hunters, Striders. (or HMVV etc)
- People want helicopters! We have all these new helicopters like Huey, Mi-24 and many many more
- People want better cartel locations and less travel overall. Nobody wants to fly to Perth to fight cartel
- Map is pure garbage and performance is garbage too (map dev did show off some cool stuff in new version tho)
- People want more guns. There are at least 10-15 good guns that did not get added like G36, PP-19 Bizon, CZ-805, M14 DMR, CZ550, L85A2, Mk12 SPR, M40A3, Mk16 mod 0, Dragunov SVD, XM-8. Why aren't these guns in? Who knows they are fun as hell and different. caliber cannot be the excuse we have the .338 lapua there.
- Cops need better guns, on Altis constable gets two fully automatic assault rifles on Aus constable gets 9mm pea shooter and THATS IT. Corporals ONLY get a fucking semi automatic shit. Even bounty hunters get fully automatic rifles.
There is a ton of content in these mods that could totally work in asylum, not including what you already suggested. I predict a decent amount of it is added slowly over time through patch notes because "hype, new content!"
My opinion is that Paratus purposely holding off on adding some of this stuff for that reason alone. When he feels the numbers have dipped low enough, or whatever, he'll release a handful of this stuff.
Is it just me or does the balancing on some of these things seem way off? Example would be the cost of a heli. With limited money making jobs, huge map, ruthlessness of the population (could be shot down with a glock)- What justifies $150k+ for a heli on a map that spans like 35km? And in the same thought, why is it the vanilla hummingbird when there could be at least a few modded ones added too? (also not sure if bug, but medivac is only 4k )lol. The cost of the near useless DC3 and C130 also leaves me baffled. Those planes could be great for RP, but at those costs people don't even take them out.

-poor optimization
-many bugs
-huge map but expensive/ useless air vehicles
-most vehicles handle like garbage
-huge map but not many ways to make money. some things are basically restricted to certain towns unlike altis- excavating, turtles, or still things that are still broken
-people don't want to start over
I personally quite enjoy it, but these are some reasons why it isn't popular with some people.

Hello. I've recently noticed all my property (5 houses) are gone on server 1. I've been extremely busy with work the past few months so I've barely logged on. I understand the houses are gone, it's cool. Is there any type of comp I could get though?
