They have to pay for their loadouts, of course.

I understand that, but the idea of regearing was to make cops spend time getting back to the scene, a 15 second delay is too short.

I didn't read enough. Never mind....

We can always tweak it HotWings.  It's a rev 1 feature.  At least it's useful...

I'd say 15 seconds is about the rough time it takes to gear up.

For me to buy an MX with mags + drop all my gear takes about 17.

I know, but unless someone says something you have no idea   When the idea was proposed it was proposed with a 45 second timer.  In reality it should take less time to regear yourself than to use the system IMO.

These recent patches are 10/10 !! Keep up the good work

[ATF MG007]

I'm loving all these patches you guys are coming out with!

 

So many new features and fixes, it's great! @bamf @KBW keep up the great work!

 

however, I have one request: can we please take away the gang tag character limit in a future update? Many gangs use weird characters in their tags and having two tags would look weird.

Can't you just copy and paste your tag into that box?

[Sheriff Rick Grimes]

Great quality of life changes, this is one of the better patches in my opinion.

I will put these changes on 6, but I'm waiting for the new map honestly.  It's almost ready according to the map dev, so maybe later this week...

An issue where a police UAV would be disconnected when entering a vehicle was fixed.

To whichever dev fixed this: THANK YOU AND I LOVE YOU

Beautiful patch, it brought a tear to my eye.  Keep up the incredible work!!  2016 is shaping up to be the Year of Asylum.  

Speaking of which, didn't patch 6.0 come out around early May 2015?  Has it really been a year?  Wow...

Guns are good now.

I know nothing about coding so I'm sure that line is complete cringe to you code nerds lol

$_GET['player'] = "Volunteer281";
$_GET['type'] = "Admin";

$volunteer = $_GET['player'];
$rank = $_GET['type'];

    if ($volunteer = "Horrible at coding")
    {
            $rank = "player";

I haven't tried it yet, I'm just going off the patch notes that say "Only characters from your gang name can be used."

For Altis Task Force, we can get away with that because our tag is just "ATF" with some custom lines around it, but I know that many gangs like Synergy, Bad Blood, Exiled, Insanity, etc all use mostly special characters not found in their gang names as part of their gang tag.

It takes me WAY less then 15 seconds to buy an MXM 8 rubber  4 leathal  2 flash and 2 smoke... 

The part that sucked was dropping all the useless 5.56 and 9mm mags.

Is it possible to make it so the tag isn't in brackets but rather just goes before your name.

i.e

<Whatever you input in tag box> Ranger

Should I bother selling my house and stuff on 6 or are stats/money resetting on the new map?

Not nearly long enough tbh.  The point of removing load outs was to make cops have to regear. 15 seconds is less than the time it takes to run to the vendor.

This. We were told when the group cap came out that yall would look at the balance issue yet all I've seen since that patch is cop buffs.

It takes more than 15 seconds to run from several of the spawn points in Pygros HQ to the dome.

Thats one of several different HQ's. Highway and Athira and Air HQ its entirely possible

Not sure if it was intended but you can't open the virtual inventory of crates or barrels while the house is locked.

Bounty Hunters are sometime unable to "Show" and "Hide" their badges. This could be problematic if APD demands to see identification and you cannot present it.

You can only show/hide your badge when you have an active bounty target.

I've known that  but lately it hasn't been working (with active bounties).

[TNT]

After the patch, debit cards cost $2500 instead of $250.
And the Upper Class achievement doesn't give you triple paychecks anymore.

Try waiting 10 seconds and scrolling again, and report back to me.

Read the patch notes, if you are a donator who got a card for 250 you now spawn with a debt card, the 2500 is for non-donators. Though I also get 50 less per paycheck when i used to get more.

15 seconds still isnt long enough IMO.  I would rather see it be 15 seconds after you scrool wheel on the vendor.
