Like some of the tier 4 goals are just not worth it bamf. We're dipping our toe into a new way for players to donate. It's the first month... Link to comment
Flax Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 Well at least the devs are trying to go in the right path. If the servers can't be paid for then there will be no Asylum. If you don't like the rewards on certain tiers then don't donate. If you want this server to stay alive then donate. Simple. I quit a few months ago so I have no clue about the recent patches or state of the servers nor community. Link to comment

I agree with the system, dont get my wrong like its a great way to get money for the servers but i just think the end goal is over the top for what we are getting yeno. I know ive said it before but some of the stuff on the list are things we've been asking for for awhile now and the goal we need reach in order to get then is pretty steep. Everything is going the right way rn with performance improvements and transparency with the community. Edited January 19, 2018 by Sean That Irish Guy Link to comment
massi Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) The asylum website definitely needs a rework.. I can't even find a donation button for the community goals. Also, with a crypto community that is quite big, it should be a no-brainer to add some wallet addresses. Add a clickable link to the main website where it says Donate which would redirect to the donation page for community goals, maybe? Just make it more clear, it's really not that difficult and shouldn't take more than an hour or two. I'd say replace CSAT & carrier lite stacking with making pilot coveralls available to everybody, even on cop? Edited January 19, 2018 by massi Link to comment
Jake Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) Not here to argue but with the amount of people that play... if each person donated like $5 or maybe $10 max.... we would be way over the $2000 I see people complaining about...

It's something that is an incentive to go up another level if enough players want the perk. Group cap shouldn't even be a thing. If cops can have 30 people on why should civs be limited to 14?

boomheadshot69 Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 yea let me donate so i can play on servers that go down every 15 minutes and have teleporting people and flying cars and guns that dont kill people until 2 minutes later all the while having that person kill me because of that.

HotWings Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 Just now, Wubz said: So what you're saying is that you're removing content you've implemented and caps for certain things for money. You're holding group cap for 3 extra people hostage, for $2,000 a month. Actually blackmailing your playerbase for content that we don't want anyway, and fucking not giving anyone new content, like that actually fucking insane. Put the tide pods down.

It's something that is an incentive to go up another level if enough players want the perk. Someone said in the most recent or second most recent patch notes that the group cap increase needs to be permanent and for good reason. Gangs deny people all the time because they have to debate whether or not that player has the skills needed to justify them taking up potentially the last group slot. It absolutely must be something that remains consistant. Gangs can not flip flop willy nilly between the amount of members they have. The play style change between 14 members and 17 is huge, especially when we are talking about gang vs. gang fighting. We cannot afford to not count on for sure what our group cap will be the following month. If you want us to donate for the increase that's fine, but certain things have to be permament for reasons other then feeling like we get a long term or permanent benefit to donating towards the community goal.

You could make the rest of splunk availability for other APD staff (e.g. Lts) contingent on community goals but IMO the APD Captain should have access to it so it can be better managed.

Well it seems as if you got all the answers so learn how to code and help them out. Don't just sit on the forums and cry and throw a tantrum like a 4yr old about everything they are trying to do for the community, when you are just sitting on your ass jackin off. Like mentioned previously, they aren't making thousands of dollars off this server, and just bakin our donations lol they both have real life jobs and have real life shit to do just like everyone else here. they do this in their free time, not to satisfy you. they cant make everyone happy, everyone has different opinions on what they think should happen. You think sitting on the forums and bitching about what they are tryng to do for the community is gunna make them say "you know what Wubz, you are so right about everything and you obviously speak for everyone on the server, so what should we do next" no, put your 1 little comment in and leave it at that and if you think Olympus is so much better go on the Olympus forums and bitch about shit.

Also the other "big community" only has 2 servers up right now as well. I guess I should just dilute players even more by running 2 additional servers during off peak hours?
