For gang names with more than one word, it uses the first letter of every word (words are identified where a space exists between characters in this case).

For one-word gang names, the first and last letter of the word are used.

Example - Anthrakia Mafia will show as [AM], while Scrubz will show as [Sz]

This is only the first implementation and is subject to change based on feedback.

Very interesting. Would like to see it more like ranger suggested where we can have it add our gang tag, instead of [Iy] [‡] Scott

• Being killed by the APD should now pardon you automatically

holy balls

only issue i have with this is the trading of kills. If the rebel kills you first (7.62 velocity) and you kill him after your dead (6.5 slower), cops dont get paid, so the rebel is getting a free pardon.

@bamf@KBW

Other than that, amazing pach and alot of bug fixes.

If that is an issue to you don't play cop its not for the money.

[Buckwalter]

Jaws of Life Hype!!!! No more getting left behind because I'm stuck in a burning car. Now my deadly driving will be slightly less deadly. 

Good job dev squad and welcome KBW, thank you all for your time and effort.

more of an issue of someone getting a free pardon if a cop trades. I play >10% cop, sit back down in your wheel chair  and keep it to patch notes

Jesus FUCKING christ.

I'm still confused, can you or can you not log off at rebel.

Interesting issue, I'll introduce a fix for this in the next patch, regardless of it being a rare situation.

[Boris]

Ahh balls I can't hit the clothing shop to fix my mags anymore.

I'm sad about that.

[Scott]

So with the warning of a player logging in at rebel, are we allowed to log at rebel just with the knowledge that everyone knows when you log in there, or is it "ghosting"?

[Mike Stmria]

Triple paychecks  (500k prestige) are not working

• Ammunition count in magazines will now sync when you logout

Well RIP

[Med_Ex]

Adding to what Scott said, is the rebel log message the immediate area around rebel or does it extend to like 300m out?

[Boris]

For those wondering about the rebel message-

"A potentially hostile player has entered the world nearby!"

or some shit like that.

Assume it extends a few hundred meters out.  The point here is to let people know that someone logged in near them when they may have already cleared the area.

The 25% increase in price for out of stock items was the intended functionality from Paratus, however this was non-functioning due to a bug.

The mk1 was 19.8k price.... 25% is not an additional 9k

Probably governor taxes as well then.  There are several things that come together to make the total price of the gun.  Perhaps we can make the breakdown a little more clear in the future.  

[Diseased]

Look at the top right hand corner, i just payed 28k for an mk1

People were pissed paying 15k for an MK1 on demand.. oh I know lets make it 28k

[BrutaL]

28k seems far too extreme regardless of what breaks up the price.. you're talking 40k plus a loadout.. that's almost 5% of your total maximum wealth

 

especially when you can buy the guns on market with 0 money and it removes every gun from the market

So this is working as intended? 30k for a gun alone is ridiculous. 

[Dust Runner]

Please fix SWAT. It's a great feature to help balance out the lower ranks against rebels when SGT+ aren't around and it's a tool as an LT I still use.

The only info I have is that it breaks randomly, for instance several nights now after a fresh restart, 45 mins later a bank goes off and nobody on the server gets SWAT confirmed this as I had the few officers on at the time try and report at the NPC. It also breaks assuredly when people do multiple objectives at once and if it even goes off it breaks after the deployment for the first objective.

Hopefully seeing the time and effort from our new wonderful developers we can see a very sought after feature for most officers return to its working glory.

No gangs are going to fight away from their home server unless the mk prices are nerfed.

[Big Gay Jay]

If its 28k for a MK1 out of stock, then fix the bug where you can have no money on you and spam buy guns off the market so they go out of stock,

I'll be taking a look at SWAT in the coming days, possibly rewriting it if need be.

Wasn't aware of this, definitely will be addressed if this is in fact an issue.

Not bitching because these are good fixes... but in a sense you fixed all the "good bugs" and are just making us farm / pay more for fighting.

This is how.  Tho we all know people will just not play instead of using the 6.5

I can tell this will probably turn into a shit show now that everyone knows about the 30k mk1s but before that happens I just wanted to thank the devs for fixing all these bugs even though the mks are fucked right now. 

[[df]Smokahontas]

Why are we making it a job to play this game. What is the end goal here for rebels?? I play this shit to fight and have fun, stop making it a fucking job, please.

[Pascal51564]

28K for a gun lmao i prefer going in with a pistol even if my chances to win are 1% 

[bamf]

It could potentially be a bug as well.  We're looking into it now.

[BrutaL]

apart from the gun price, this is a great patch with many amazing fixes/features 

 

thanks

Max price for an mk1 should be 16-18k. Pre-6.0 the guns were 88k aka 8.8k
