Aside from the last part cuz I still like Olympus but their housing system is light years ahead of Asylum and you can assign temporary or perm keys to friends. They also have a gang shed system which is far better implemented than the gang house system of Asylum. If someone does something better, copy and improve on it like the Chinese, there's no reason to make excuses. @Jesse since you probably had a hand in coding a bunch of that I bet you could add it here eventually.

Edgy

Pretty sure we ran across you guys a few times at cocaine field yesterday.

Yes

Ok

No.

@Windmere I guess it's back to the dark web selling cocaine for a living.

That's good for you?

Money cap and group cap don't magically solve deficiencies in the mission file setup. Holding up one or two guys as an example and saying its easy doesn't make your argument valid either. If the OP is complaining about relative ease vs money sink for new players on both servers, then he's right in saying Olympus is more newbie friendly. Insurance for vehicles and high payout for legal runs being an example. I recall gnashes telling me one day that if you factor in the economy difference (1:10) that Asylum pay was equal but he failed to take into account the tempest, insurance, more varied load outs on Olympus, WPL and other easier means of pay with far less money lost such as whitelisted medics and APD (unlimited free load outs with higher payout on seizes vs Asylum). Even something simple like vigilante/bounty hunter is much easier on Olympus because they aren't assigned a target but rather have access to the entire wanted list and can pick and choose. As for the APD, Olympus constable equivalents aren't required to kiss your ass and give you half off while getting boned with seize caps like Asylum, they toss 100% tickets at you most of the time with few exceptions and they lose nothing if they die. With regards to whitelisted medics as a form of income, you can easily make $200-500k+ playing casually over there but life here as a medic is garbage because the APD revives people that are dead. @BaDaBiNg_10-8 you know what I'm talking about as we both complained about this on Asylum last year. Once you fix stability you should definitely look into an economy revamp here.

Money making on Asylum just needs higher pay for legal runs so meth isn't the end all be all. The OP is kinda right that its somewhat easier on Olympus because you can do legal runs in a tempest and make a lot of money. If someone robs you and chops your vehicle, you get it back if you have basic insurance. There are no such protection mechanisms on Asylum which makes life hard for new players. As an example, I started with nothing on Olympus last year and only casually earned money but by the time I left I was in the top 20 richest and ended up selling my money for $300+ and that was a discounted rate. I played Asylum much longer and whether it was cop or civ, the money sink to earned ratio is much higher and so I never got close to being the wealthiest here.

Old prison but keep both bridges

I agree with this for certain fields but not all

The first part had DS which is expected of them to miss the drop. The rest was them wasting their time. I'd have just left him there till he got bored and grabbed him when he came down.

Y do u gotta rob from poor squeakers? I'll have to contact Olio about this.

As Administrator I've decided to remove Mitch and place Google as the new civ rep. Congrats!

So is Splunk still being paid for out of pocket like bamf was doing? If so, what are the odds of you importing the stats system Olympus uses over here since that is free?

Good luck, I think you'll need it. Even Poseidon wasn't able to fix it.

No doubt but it was also tedious to use on Olympus, especially as APD.

Its not as great as you might think.

Copy Olympus but improve on it. Dope crates they have over there are a good idea that I enjoyed dropping as a Sr medic.

My suggestion: Remove all semblance of connection to Paratus by changing the logo and maybe even the name down the line or appending it. Asylum is damaged goods and if @Jesseis seriously sticking around (which I have my doubts) then this would be a completely fresh start for Asylum 2.0 (hey there's your new name). @BaDaBiNg_10-8 @Clint Beastwoodget rid of precincts, add that whitelisted medic faction we always wanted and bring on fresh APD Captains with term limits.

Start with firing all of staff and bringing fresh admins on. Get rid of the current APD captains and elect new ones that have term limits. Keep a very tight leash on admins so they don't get too comfortable like the current ones and if they go inactive, don't just let them come back and be an admin again. Asylum was corrupt from the top which trickled down, I would never let these retired admins back. If you're serious about fixing Asylum i would start with the above and then find a few competent devs. Good luck I'll be watching from the sidelines with popcorn.

I'd buy it for a dollar.
