If you got into a game and 5 minutes later it was won (and you were on the winning side), then you got somewhat lucky. On Malden I am 100% sure the pay was not based off match time or score. No matter the time or score you contributed you were promised to get 100k for the winning team and 300k for online while winning. The dev team needs to come up with a solution for the losing team to receive a payout for time and score at the end of the match instead of nothing. ChicoXL likes this Link to comment

That's not the point. If you just want to play strife, the money made on Strife is enough to keep you relatively self sufficient (in theory). If you came to Strife hoping that you'd never have to run meth again to support your Altis Life bank account then you're gonna have a bad time. ^ You're going to make more money doing oil or something on Altis. The difference here being that you're making money while fighting and having fun; not grinding to make money. Want to grind and make more money faster? There are 4 Altis servers for that.

Tusken Raider Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 12 hours ago, bamf said: Like I said, it's not straight forward. We have to write something that knows when the server is restarting from a successful Strife win and then launches a different configuration for the server. The normal server rotation that is implemented by BIS is for each time the server restarts. I'm not sure we want to have the equivalent of 2 chess matches going on with 2.5 hours between plays in each game... Not sure if this would work, but couldn't you have Malden and Tanoa in two different classes? When one of the classes ends with a win it will output a trigger for the other class to activate?

The server will die others like KoTH players "wont" see the server because of it since you guys dont see the point that there are other players who doesnt even play asylum Altis life and just wanna enjoy a new game mode. You are literally ruining the server again. I am sorry that I have to be rude first but apperently you guys won't or can't understand it. Most of the ppl enjoy Strife since you can play and actually earn a bit of money while having fun. Treeontyn likes this Link to comment

Good patch, I was wondering if the objective system could be overhauled to operate in a way that makes more sense. The point closest to each team's spawn would be the first/last point captured. Teams would push forward capturing points with the end goal of capturing the point closest to the enemy base. The last point becomes almost impossible to recover as it is usually across the map from the team base and pilots usually won't bother to transport troops. A slight reward for reviving as a combat lifesaver would be a nice incentive, add a cooldown on the payment to prevent abuse. Edit: The blufor kits are also whacky, some spawn with two mine detectors and as little as 3 mags. Edited August 17, 2017 by Legit HomeTrlx and crewsk8200 like this Link to comment

The reason we compare things to running meth is that, as the highest priced illegal item, meth is designed to be the ultimate "money maker" in the Asylum world(s). Also, a common refrain on the forums is "I'd rather run meth than do (fill in the blank)". It's a known quantity among most players, so it's easy to use as a comparison. Make sense?

Nameless Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 The Viper Marksman aswell as the Sharpshooter do not give rewards as they should. Hitting shots from farther distances should trigger a reward system such as extra money, this system is used in KOTH. For example when a sniper in KOTH hits a 800m headshot, he gets extra money for the distance as well as the headshot, maybe add this system to Strife aswell? Brendon Smith likes this Link to comment
