V2 feedback

Going to cover a few items in a sort of Q and A manner and throw in some +1's, (possible spoilers at the end)

A quick loadout button has been asked for before, Would be a nice touch.

 

These won't be in v2 upon the release, they are among the features that will be added in as we go along.

Everything pertaining to medics/reviving/cop medics will be looked at and evaluated as we get closer to white-listed medics.

I've heard a few people talk about the orca and its flying, i've been unable to recreate these issues and had others test with no luck. I couldn't find anything in the recent SpotREP to suggest any changes to how orca's fly. 

 

Gangs can already own garages, are you suggesting a garage in addition to a house, and vice versa?

Scotch needed more risk. We tried by making barley illegal but that didn't even put a dent in sales. By far scotch makes more money compared to every other method on the server with very little risk and being a passive operation for the most part. Option A was to nuke its price into the ground, but the decision was made to try this out, you might see a few more people robbing at distillery, or cops checking it a bit more but should still be a good money maker. 

 

 

Default inventory should def be 1, I don't know how many times I've thought I stored something just to find out later i didn't lol.

I'm hoping debit cards just has to do with the fake database the test server is using. It doesn't have loot crate rewards for that same reason

 

+1 on siren

Gang houses I think it should depend on the gang rank. Lets say level 4 you can spawn at the house and unlock the doors, Level 3 you can spawn at the house and have keys.

I'd say replacing user action 3 with it. As currently "T" serves the function to access virtual inventory. No reason for 2 hotkeys for 1 function

Vehicle mods have been talked about and are being looked at, what kind of upgrades would you like to see?

Tow ropes - For the love of almighty yes please! My  repo business thanks you.

 

I would love to see a life server on the Livonia map. 

With V2 seeming to be stable expand server slots back to 100 (and beyond)

 

To finish off, a bit of hype that some many not know yet

We are looking into adding a Casino on the Island in the future as the lottery just doesn't have the flair it once did. - May the odds be ever stacked against you.

White-listed medics are coming 

Better rewards for higher risk operations. (Think old skip-tracer)

 

Overall I think V2 is shaping up quite nicely. Im excited and hopeful to see a server full not lag out. For me it's the small details that are making this, like the better police lights, more RP clothing, additional legal firearms and of course the most important item: Tractors. The amount of work the Dev's have put in, especially over the last few days, is nothing short of astonishing. I can't say thank you enough to th

By gang garages I meant more of a shared garage that only certain ranked gang members can access, much like olympus has for gangs

No reason to nerf it now though. People have already made millions off it. Why restrict it for the rest?

Balancing changes happen all the time. Just because they sometimes happen late doesn't mean they are unwarranted. I personally like that a lot of people in the community have a lot of money, and even I am skeptical about this change.  I was more or less trying to explain the reasoning behind the change over anything else.

  •  Attempting to pick-up items from the ground just gives the "you can't rapidly use action keys" every time.

on top of this.  items don't "clean up".  at least in the 30 minutes i was playing with the tempest.

 

  •  Get Rid of the Citizenship Talent and Homeowners license.  EVERY player should have the ability to buy a house from the gate.

 

  •  Having to enter vehicle to access inventory is a bit of a pain in the ass.  (i don't get into my car to access my trunk IRL)

 

  •  Housing crates cost roughly 75k for 3.  To upgrade housing storage on V2, it costs $150,000.  Is that $ set in stone or able to be tweaked?

 

  • If soft-restarts are going to be a thing, maybe add a countdown timer during the restart period in player selection menu

colored hexes (Thought this was impossible without mods, would be game-breaking IMO, maybe I wouldn't tk as much)

debit card can buy everything

 

3/4 Shouldn't require too much work and I think they are well needed additions

Did the cars dissapearing even when tapped ever get fixed @Azeh

Vehicles have a 15 min timer before they despawn. The timer gets updated from: entering driver seat, opening the inventory, leaving the vehicle. The timer can only be updated once every 5 mins. Can reduce the 5 min timer if needed but I believe I fixed the issue where vehicles would despawn if someone was in the vehicle and and the timer hadn't been updated in 15 mins.

they're not cleaning up on the test server.  i've had a hatch sitting in the same spot for an hour with no interaction.

A few things are being redone with it after v2 launch.

Maybe fill people in before you waste more of your time. But if you just made a blackwater it would be done daily.

Imagine logging in to the test server to hop on cop to run around and restrain people for no reason while they try to do stuff. Quality public QA

I eventually got downed by two certain admins and they stacked charges in the millions while I was trying to start RPing with them, so I logged out and when I got back they admin jailed me.  Guess people's inflated egos ( On a fucking video game lmfao ) gotta carry over to a test server where nothing matters and we all got millions lol.

Maybe don't combat log? I've stacked charged as a joke, I don't know the context of your situation but an eye for an eye is still breaking the rules, this has been known

Yeah dude, ima let them stack millions upon millions of charges when I was being friendly and trying to RP,  they said the only two rules as a cop on the test server is don't stack charges and don't team kill other cops.  They weren't joking, they were just mad they got wiped on civ ( A fight they started ) and we wiped them twice when they got on cop after lol.  But hey, nobody is playing the test server now and I sure as hell ain't getting on that shit anymore when losers are just gonna abuse the fuck out of shit on a server where you're just suppose to have fun and test shit

Nah keep the new way, adds more options for interaction with eachother, so more fights

There would be more fights if people had money they were willing to spend on gear after getting their scotch sold.  Plus at that point scotch becomes useless.  Server restarts + risking it all to go back and make it into 25 is no longer worth it.  Scotch is good because it's simply passive money.  If it's not then you might as well just run uncut diamonds lol.

Why not put Spirit Distillery in a more centralized location?

The area it's in now barely gets any interaction and now that it's being nerfed and more time consuming I believe the area will be visited far less frequently. The APD doesn't go up there unless they have a helicopter (and even then, it's out of the way of everything and barely gets checked) and it's relatively easy to avoid combat if you own a house near or at Abdera.

Move it to a more centralized area and remove the grind for 15 year to 25 year at the distillery; incentivize civilians and APD alike to utilize checking the area more often.

1 - Done about 30 mins ago.
2 - Done yesterday but haven't tested it. Should be on the test server.
3 - Test server doesn't have people's actual donor lvls/achievements. As for everyone spawning with them, not up to me.
4 - Personal priority is: prestige & honor > infamy

 

so @Azeh I just confirmed the gang house issue is not fixed.  I killed myself and spawned on a gang house (I am a 2 in the gang) and have no keys/the doors are locked.  So the fix refered to in bullet point 2 is not working.  This is actually game breaking as it messes up gang houses for rebels and such.  the house owner is not always online and at the house to let people with access in and out.  

Also the hold F chirp siren, the alternate siren, and playing both sirens at the same time is no longer in that i can tell.  Maybe the binds changed with no input?  I need these in my life.

It seems like any balancing is being taken to the extreme.  I can understand that things need to be balanced, but any balancing lately is just too much and basically takes fun away.

Scotch:  We started with a cartel cut at processing.  Then a second cartel cut at Wong's (2 cartel cuts).  Then Barley becomes illegal.  Now a second processing?  Well basically scotch has always been a good way to make money for the patient - that were willing to acquire the right real estate and setup a working system.  Now it's going to be pointless to run.

Prowlers / Quillins:  Were always the workhorse of any drug running operations.  Decent storage, could take a beating, and were just plain fun to drive.  It made doing shit fun.  Then we went up like 10 times on the price after removing the doors and nerfing the storage capacity.  Now, I don't get to enjoy those vehicles anymore because the risk / reward / usefulness of purchasing / driving those vehicles isn't there anymore.  So I have to drive a hatchback sport, (which I hate) but now, I can actually get away from cops more often which is good at the time... but as a whole it really just removes encounters that invite roleplay.

 

Other Thoughts and Suggestions:

Donations:  I think the loot crate system is pretty neat.  I myself, have donated quite a bit and have gotten some cool things.  Why not up some of the loot crate items with more cool shit?  Do limited time offers... Black NVG, olive carryall, and different colored tac 1 vests available in clothing store come to mind.  The community goal system as it is, has a problem in my opinion.  Many people won't donate to that because there is no guarantee that the community goal will be reached.  So, in the case it's not reached...  they've just flushed their money down the toilet.  Also, maybe update the tier donations.  Make it just a little bit more reasonable to want to donate more.  For example, nobody really wants a pink offroad that bad.  Throw in a few new and unique skins!

Real Estate:  IMO the way that you know you have a healthy region on the server, is when the real estate sells very high in that area.  When there's an area with high real estate, you know fun is being had there.  There are those areas, but there are many areas that aren't being used.  Oreokastro is a great example.  That is an incredibly beautiful area that doesn't get used, why not add an additional type of resource up in the northwest to make things more interesting which would also invite more constructive business into the Kavala area other than pistol banging? 

Debit Cards: Some of us donated specifically to spawn in with a debit card.  Please maintain!

Scotch now only takes a cut at wongs, no processing cut.  Tested and confirmed yesterday.  I think the added processing is a good thing, more interaction with the world and more risk.  Also the 25 year sells for more now too.  It makes it all work.  It is a buff if you arent being lazy

Toss these colored group indicators in the next patch. It is pretty hard to mess up but I left you one good example and one bad example just in case. Just include the leader icon, don't make it look laggy, add a toggle feature in the settings and let us put whatever colors we want without it being some donator perk and then stuff your pockets with easy likes on the patch notes.

 

Edit: Highly recommend the default video editor that comes with windows 10.

Lol double processing on Scotch? So Scotch is useless and cop isn't worth a dime anymore, guess no money making for me. :shrug:

It's ok though, my small-ish amount of money will probably outlast the server anyway, so I should never need to make any again anyways.
