Make bounty hunters whitelisted or make their licenses easier to seize, and more expensive. It's bullshit that someone with a bounty hunter license is just allowed to both kill me by locking me in a house and waste 10+ minutes of my time everytime they kidnap me. The amount of time I have spent locked in a house cause someone got salty I killed them is ridiculous. The point of bounty hunters is to hunt criminals, and if they're not using their license for what it's supposed to be used for, it shouldn't be accepted.
If the server is meant for fucking roleplay it seems wierd that everytime we get in a rat war there's a million bounty hunters trying to get my bounty. It's unacceptable that bounty hunters have so much freedom and power over other players in the server. Even cops can't do half the things bounty hunters can, and bounty hunters send straight to jail without any roleplay.
Just log out, if they dont see you log out they cant report it 🙂

You say that I'm "disillusioned" about my gang being the cause of these changes, and I say that you are understating the obvious. These passed changes are a direct result of our playstyle and you really can't deny it. I mean, speak to any cop and they'll tell you the same thing. I logged on today and was met with no fewer than 5 people going "oh how about that nerf to you guys, you must be so mad xD". If anything it's flattering that the administration needs to step in to help these kids since we're playing so well, but flattery only keeps me interested so long. I understand the cops need help, but I think the help being provided is being given in the wrong areas. As I've stated many times, I think the cops have every tool available for them to be competitive and win these events, but they just don't use the tools they already have so their trigger fingers become typing fingers here on the forums. Let me put this into perspective, I, a rebel, am paying 35k for my loadout, i pull a hunter (52k) and fill it with a gold bar. My total investment (minus demos/drills/bolt cutters/ etc) is around 87k per each fed I do. Now a cop who uses their free loadout, and a sport hatch (5k) thinks it's unfair I would win that engagement. I am spending over 10x his loadout cost just to get there lol. The reason hunters became op and same with other armor is that the higher ups have no trust in their lower downs. They refuse to pull armor,vans,helis etc that would help them win their engagement. That's where the problem is here, it's not that rebels are too op, it's that the cops are too cheap imo. A sgt or higher could easily pull a hunter, load it with 2-3 ppl and drive around our tempests, shoot out the engine, drop on us, etc. But they don't, they prefer to either play sniper elite in telos, or drive their armor around solo and never drop. That's not a balance problem, that's a game sense problem.
You say it takes a big investment to do a fed
but lets say its 30k per lodout, you have 10 guys so its 300k,
your cars are 2 ifrits, 2 hunters and 2 tempest so a other 300k,
if you succed you get gold worth between 1-2 million
cops:
5-10k lodout, we die 2-5 times at fed so 10-50k per cop
if we pull armor its 50-100k
if we succed we get
BOUNTY: 10k for robbing fed, lets say each rebel kill 5 people so 25k for manslaughter, 5k for other charges so we get 50k per rebel that we capture
GOLD: we get 2k per gold bar we seize so if we catch you when you leave we get maybe 20-50k worth of gold
we get to charge the 2 guys with keys for 150k for all the gold
Total: cops get maybe 500k if they succeed
Advantage rebel got:
Rebels can use bombs
the rebel can explain his charges and get a reduced ticket
we also have no way to combat a armored car except if we have our own, but the ifrit is the fastest armored car in the game so we cant really ram them unless we have nitro
You have better guns, armor and your defending
You might also have a house that you can just snipe cops from and we cant do anything if we have no LT on
Advantage cops got:
Spikestrip: you can just not drive like a idiot and you wont be spiked
free gear: Not all cops use free gear
cheap gear: we die many times since we have to drive in a open field to even get close to the place at the fed events, and we also dont get acces to any 7.62 or armor unless your part of the 5% of cops
The point is cops LOST money fighting at fed because their lodout was not worth the risk of getting a 50k bounty that would just explain his charges away while Rebels would be making millions selling gold

I want comp for all my hunters please 🙂 Also what is considered "illegal actions" would kidnapping cops be a seizeable offence? or anyone with a bounty would be illegal so would they get their hunters seized? This entire hotfix is another attempt to nerf ceo and by doing this you are ruining other players ways of making money and having fun. You dont realize is by doing this with the new timers just makes us even more bored... because of this we will start doing other things like dropping on hq's and killing cops just because why not. maybe if you added some new content we would not be so bored and would do things other than majors all day.
Maybe if u had some new content
Imagine thinking you should be able to keep a ARMORED ILLEGAL vehicle after commiting a crime

CEO on top.
We take out Ifrits because of the bug where passengers get out of the Ifrits with their gun holstered. Its a huge disadvantage. These are simple things you kids would understand if you ever played civ or even had half of a brain. You make suggestions about things you don't understand even slightly. This excuse is a joke.
Imagine thinking a feature that has been in the game for 5 years is a bug 🤡

If they add parole they should make it so you get 0$ or a very low percentage so that it more of a option to give to someone that had good RP / is too poor to afford the ticket. It should also be something that gives you your bounty back if you break it. Alot of people would take the parole, break it then just pay the 25k bail

ur loadout is 5k max
pilot coverall is 5k
gun is 3-4k
misc items + smoke grenade + flashbang = 1.5k
= 10k
then you have to pay for your uniform and vest if you use the automatic thing
so then its 12k

I've seen many cops using these post to try and explain that they need help because they cant win federal events. The issue is not that the events HAPPEN frequently, its that the cops LOSE frequently. That the reason the Fed is so broken at the moment, because it's basically free considering the cops can't play together as a team and run in and die like AI. But thats not an issue the admins need to fix, that's an issue with the higher ups who can't lead their people, and the constables who have 0 game sense. If we keep catering to these subpar players more and more people are going to quit the server. Cops have literally every advantage in almost every engagement but instead of making improvements when they lose, they make excuses and take to forums to complain.
Cops get: Free loadouts, reduced cost higher tier loadouts/armor. Free money from lethaling/seizing, shared money for just being there, infinite respawns, a respawn point no more than 2km away from any event, a free teleport to evidence, free armor/loadout from swat, and many other things.
Rather than learning how to use these numerous advantages they have, they just complain and knee pad to admins to keep nerfing rebels. Theres a reason the overall quality of the APD cops has dropped in recent times, it's because they're used to being coddled and cared for. I'd like to see the admins take a harder stance and tell the cops, tough shit make it work. Maybe then, these players would actually improve and learn new strats to make these federal events competitive. By adding cooldowns to federal events you're catering to them by letting them avoid having to actually learn how to play the game. I hear so many cops say "oh im bad, that's why I hate federal events". Higher ups should actually be responsible and train their lower downs so that they aren't so bad anymore. To prove my point, perhaps all the current cops should go rebel and CEO of FED will play cop and we'll show you how to win with the tools you already have, otherwise just keep complaining and killing the server."free money", 10k bounty to start fed, then you get 5 kills so then you have a 35k bounty, lethel so now its 50% of that, then you split it and you end up with 2k per person
"free lodouts" we get a spar 16 and a lvl 2 vest, it takes 6 bullets to down a rebel in full pilot coveralls but you can 1-2 shot us.
"infinite respawns" you also get that
"close spawns" some rebels have closer houses to the events then the cops
"cheap armor" Doesnt really matter when the higher ups dont take them out
"cops dont know how to push" Its hard to push when you have 6 constables on and 10 rebels all with ifrits and we cant even get our own armor
"swat gets free armor" Its so easy to shoot someone that is in a strider or a hunter I honestly feel more safe in a hatchback sport
"cops are bad at the game and should do trainnings" I dont think going to one trainning is going to improove someone with 200 hours when he is fighting against someone with 5k hours
"cheap lodouts" My lodout is 10k (armor, 1 flash and a mx) so when I cant even get into the fed or bank because the outside is being patrolled by multiple ifrits doesnt make me want to come back with my "cheap lodout"

They should just make it so you can seize it if they dont have a bh licence, last time I cheaked its illegal for rebels to drive them but we cant seize them
-
The only problem with these fed events is the fact that you dont have time to procces your suspects if you catch them before the next one starts. nothing is more annoying then you winning bank, but then having to go to fed when you have 10 guys to procces and you still need to drive to hq. by the time your done proccesing the event is over

The kick message is standard across all arma servers. We are unable to attach anything to that message. I can't recall the character limit but it's very low.
If you have a fourm account you should get a notification of what you did wrong so you can more easily make a ban appeal.

You can get combat fatigue, and its the same, only problem is you cant get any of the other underwater items

You need to use lockpicks from your phone because its unlocked but you dont have keys, so you still need to lockpick it to be able to use the trunk

That prison would be imposible to push for cops and that bank would also be hard to get too since its up hill and a swerving road

They check beforehand. so they know when the person shows up. Trust me. we check.
Rebel gun: Type 115
UC cop gun option: Type 115
Rebel gun: Spar 16, mx
Uc cop option: Spar 16, mx.
Uc cops do get rebel guns. but giving every officer over the rank of constable a 7.62 rifle is a bit too much.
Was talking more about the Katiba and AK(5.45 and 7.62), Would also make more sense if they had access to the PDW/Sting, idk if they have that but I never see any UC with those guns
-
I dont get it why UC cops dont just get rebels guns, they use the scrolling script now instead of the ammo script

🐵 you died once then respawned at the same town, what did you expect?
Also you should know that after 30 days of being inactive you lose all your houses, I have lost Millions of dollars worth of houses and gear, your lucky it was on server 2 since if it comes back you could still have them

You guys act like an MX will magically fix you not being able to hit someone. A TRG/Spar will do just fine. If you want to buy an MX, go do it! Illegally that is.

The problem is that it's a inconvenient for everyone, I still use it but now instead of putting my hands up when a cop talks to me I shoot him and leave him restrained in my house for 10 minutes

Why people think it should be illegal
POINT 1: BH are criminals
That 90% still buy the illegal gun, because they are going to be arrested for their criminal activities anyways. all it does is force law abiding bounty hunters to then break the law to fight cops
POINT 2: it was to reduce kidnappings and make BH less OP
Making the MX illegal dident really change the fact that you would get kidnapped because the guy doesnt care he has a illegal gun when he is kidnnaping a cop. The BH can still use it, all it does is create situation where a bh is getting his bounty, but now has to fight cops as well as his bounty
Why it should be LEGAL
Point 1: It forces law abiding citizens to fight police when they otherwise wouldent: This reduces RP because now instead of explaining why he had a 2k bounty, he now shoots and leave the cop restrained for 10 minutes
Point 2: Everybody still uses it: It dident fix a thing since now all it does is cause more crime
