    Appreciate a member of the APD stopping by to comment

    I have to disagree, i am a returning player trying to rebuild and as im working from home i have a stupid amount of hours played the last 2 weeks https://gyazo.com/b296c8b85c2bc03bd897904564b8503b and there is RARELY any cops on let alone higher ups at the times i play which vary not always the same timeframe. id like the community to speak about their experiences as this is just our two opinions.

     

    My point was that cops don't have much to do when there are less than 40 people on the server, which is why you may think that cops do not play.

    The server has always slowed down around new years and picks back up around when summer starts and around winter break (these upcoming 2 weeks).

    But per usual, people will come up with wild theories like slick leaving, server bans, or bad updates.

    I personally haven't been on much because when I do get on, there are ~40 civs and I don't enjoy it too much.

    On a side note, from what I've seen this month there have been plenty of higherups online.

    Whatever the current percentage of blur it is, just do 75% of that. Reduce smoke blur by 25% or 15% of what it is now and let's test it. 

    We tested different blurs before dom came out and the smallest tweaks were pretty game changing but that was a while ago so I can't recall exactly how bad the smoke exploiting was.

    I can play around the blur but I've noticed that the edges of smoke are blurred even though you are barely in it. 

    I'm not sure if its possible, but make the radius of the smoke blur much closer to the actual canister itself and not so much in the smoke surrounding. Ban anyone standing on canisters as well, it's pretty obvious when someone is blatantly smoke exploiting.

    agreed! 1 life rule for cops also!!! sounds good man. glad you thought of it.

    lol use your brain john

    Cop and rebel is different, cops are meant to give multiple lives because irl if you robbed a bank you’d get swarmed by cops.

    okay so? 15-20 min gives them time to press plates and gear up to come back. whats the problem with rebels coming back with gear to continue the fight? 

    Hey man not sure if you know but when we down you, take you to HQ and send you to jail, you are taken OUT of the fight. If you are constantly being sent to jail, well... reconsider your ability to fight the event.

    This isn’t the gulag, you don’t get a second chance. Once you have been sent to jail, accept it and hope your teammates can finish the job.

    It's definately an underrated opinion that money should be hard to make. You might like being able to make 200k in 30 minutes from a shipwreck or something, but the game really is a lot more fun when it's a challenge to stay rich. Money should be the biggest part of the game, but it's not. I don't think very many people worry about money anymore.

    I definately miss cooking meth and grinding uranium runs for money. It may sound boring, but there's a lot of excitement that comes from selling a bunch of shit you just spent the last couple hours working for. That just isn't part of the game anymore. For me, at least. IDK if a lot of others are having the same experience I am.

    I miss how it used to be. Making money is a huge dynamic of the game and can definitely be enjoyable. I actually want to go an do runs sometimes but its not an efficient use of my time, there are way better options that I could choose.

    In the past few weeks, anytime I wanted to make some money back I have been doing solo banks where all I am doing is aim training for 10 minutes and getting the equivalent of a box truck of meth or more.

    I play one domination, and I make the same money I would have if I processed a house full of meth, that's nuts. 

    I am not blaming the server/developers since things can't go back to the way they were without a load of backlash, I'm just saying I miss the days of grinding meth early in the morning to fight during the day.

    For the investment the average player puts into it, I think the domination payout is fair. I wish that there were more challenging and straight-forward, high-investment money-making methods with similar payouts in the game for people to explore, instead of some form of get large truck, pick/incubate thing, process thing, sell thing.

    I've played two doms out of 4 doms in the past week and made 2.5mil profit, and my gang made #2 and #4 or #5. That's a lot of money. I can only imagine that the gangs that are getting #1 if they get it 4 times in a week are getting around at least 4-6 mil a week. Depends from player to player how much they are spending during dom. but you make a shit load of profit lol mainly if they are on the leaderboard.

    This is my viewpoint, and is mostly subjective. 

    The whole economy is pretty fucked. Fed. events and domination are the only money making source that is worth your time if you have a half decent team.

    Cartels are dead at the moment and the idea of raising the money that you earn from cartels isn't a bad idea. The only problem I see with this is that the server will (and has) become a "pvp" server fewer and fewer people doing money runs. (excluding newer players and people with great houses). 

    The dynamic of the server has changed from what I have seen, changing from a "make money/do runs to fight/pvp" to a "fight/pvp to make money".

    People have gotten used to being able to fight fed. events and domination to make their money that if we ever were to go back to how it was before when people ran drugs to buy their loadouts it would have a shitload of community backlash. 

    There have been adjustments from what I have seen to try and combat this (not sure this is 100% correct), like reducing the amount of gold bars in the fed. reserve, but even if there weren't any federal events, domination still rakes in an absolute shitload of money.

    I'm not against making money off of domination at all, its great, it allows me to have fun and spend my money freely, but it removes the need for people to run money on the main server and that takes away a huge aspect of the server.

    I work a full time job and i am still home in time for dom most nights.

    You are still in highschool and you get out at 3 pm at the latest, not my problem if your mother has to pick you up from school.

    Also half those players who voted dont even like dom 

    All of them play dom, I get home at 7pm. Regardless of my personal situation, there are people get off work as dom ends/the last 30 min of it.

    Cool ig good thing it isnt changing 

     

    I'm going to rant a little here, idc if you read it or not.

    I don't want this post to turn into a banter post but no shit its good for you. You have nothing else to do in life. The only people that are voting to keep it how is it are people who don't leave home or the few EU players. It's no longer summer or quarantine, people have school and work.

    The argument that this is an NA server is valid but doesn't help much because we have a diverse community. The best thing to do would be to push the time back two hours. Olympus's conquest had alternating times for both 6pm and 8pm EST, and all of our EU guys were still playing, granted half of them were whispering because it was late but still... 

    The poll speaks for itself, I hope @Mr. Slick has some common sense to listen to the poll and majority of the community instead of having his ears plugged with Tom's penis... only jokes. sort of 

    In all seriousness, there needs to be a change. Please make it happen, even pushing the time back an hour would be decent but still only allow most people to get on halfway through the event. Two hours would be the best or hell why not an hour and a half. Listen to the community, don't let it die out or exclude people from the event. I love dom but only being able to play once a week is frustrating.
