Approved Ideas:

Civilian:

Multiple Hawks Lost + Titan interaction changes

  • When the APD sends the "This is the APD, you are being notified that since multiple Ghosthawks have been lost, the APD will be returning for the remainder of the situation guns hot."  text the group being notified is automatically Titan Engaged for the remainder of the situation on all APD Aerial Vehicles.

Ability to destroy spike strips

  • 7 second action
  • Would remove the spike strip as a whole (not add to inventory)
  • Requires Bolt Cutter (Not consumed on use)

House Bids

  • Ability to windows key other people's houses and put a bid on them
    • Bid last 7 days
  • Bid amount is withdrawn from the person making an offer's account when placing a bid
    • Returned unless bid is accepted
    • Players can withdraw their bids on houses
  • Homeowners are notified upon logging if there is a bid on a house of theirs
    • Bids can be accepted/declined in the windows key menu
  • Minimum bid amount is 1 000 000
    • Flat minimum bid amount across all house sizes
  • 2.5% Fee that the server takes and puts in the abyss for safekeeping upon bid acceptance/denial / withdrawal
  • Players cannot see the name of the house owner when placing bids nor can the house owner see their names when dealing with house bids

Vigilante Arsenal Update

  • .45 Suppressor
    • 4 RP
    • T5 Vigi
  • 5.56 Suppressor
    • 6 RP
    • T5 Vigi + 300 or above arrests

Gang Perk Addition

  • Ability to refill mags on Flagpoles
    • 5000 Cost each time you refill
    • 10 Minute cooldown (for the person using it to refresh their mags)
    • Would not refresh .50 Mags, PrometSG Mags etc
    • Would cost 1 Perk Point baseline
    • Has a second level for 2 Perk Points
      • Decreases Cooldown to 5 Minutes
      • Reduces cost to 3000

Display name of the gang contesting your currently owned cartel

  • Would only show the name to the gang currently owning the cartel

Vigilante Warzone Interaction Changes

  • Show as contested when a vigilante is present on a cartel

Actinium Changes

  • Increased amount in capsule by 50

 

APD:

Qulin Smoke to SGT+ for federal events

  • ONLY for federal events, cannot be used during any means / when the handbook is being superseded.

New Charges

  • Impeding Traffic
    • $5,000
    • Only to be added if a civilian is blocking the flow of traffic (eg roadblock)
  • Failure to identify 
    • $2,500
    • Only to be added to suspects who refuse to provide identification resulting in the APD having to conduct a "blood test".

Increase Federal Events cooldown timer

  • Increased by 5 minutes (on both failure and success) 

Qilin (Light) to PO's for federal events

  • ONLY for federal events, cannot be used during any means / when the handbook is being superseded.

 

R&R:

House fires extinguished on stats page

Notification for warzone airdrop event

  • Two notifications before the event begins so medics know not to drop dopecrates in WZ before the event begins 
    • 1 notification an hour before and another one 30 minutes before.
  • This helps medic know when they will begin so to prevent them from breaking rules with dopecrates in an airdrop.

Option to refill taru fuel near an open water source for firefighting

  • QOL for refilling water on the taru when out far from a hospital but closer to a water source.

Add the ladder to the roadkit for EMT

 

Denied Ideas:

Civilian:

Warpoint on cop kills when a player's bounty is above 1 Million

  • 1 Warpoint
  • Does not Streak / Scale with higher bounty

Reason for denial: Would create a new way to farm warpoints during federal events and other activities which is not the intended way to gain warpoints.

Vandal APD Hunter + Strider

Reason for denial: Allowing jr apd to have a route to armor in their garages is less than ideal, and deleting the vehicle if a jr apd seizes it defeats the vandal system

Ability to capture cartels as a Vigilante

Reason for denial: As a vigilante you are supposed to uphold the law not go into a warzone and capture illegal cartels

Vigilante CSAT + Tear Gas

Reason for denial: Balancing and "cancering" concerns

Buffing ALL Illegal / Legal runs on the server

Reason for denial: Many people actually do runs! Both average daily value & average $/hour of gameplay have been on an upward trend. Historically, simply increasing sell prices has not led to more runs robbing content because, for the most part, people do runs to get enough cash, not for the fun. We're open to rebalancing some of the runs that are done too much or not enough, but if the sale price is affected, it needs to work both ways (i.e. slight nerf to something at the top to offset the buff)

 

APD:

Make roaching federal events against the rules while the event is in the rings

Reason for denial: No shot we make playing the game against the rules, would probably also have the opposite effect as intended,

New Charges

  • Operating Stolen Vehicle
  • Stunt Driving

Reason for denial: Vehicle theft already exists and speeding can already be stacked.

Change Advanced rebel Carrier Rig cost from 100k to 250k

Reason for denial: The vest is not that commonly used and with the amounts purchased nothing supports increasing the price by 150%.

All domes in the Federal Reserve to be indestructible

Reason for denial: It takes a significant amount of money relative to the fed cut, is pretty rarely done, and doesn't render it  unplayable.

Type 115 back to corporal

Reason for denial: Don't want to put too many fed nerfs in one update, can reconsider for federal events only in the future.

Blackfish/xion hull to half health 

Reason for denial:  There are already so few blackfishes after the other "recent" nerfs, esp the vehicle variant and the APD has plenty of counters for how many get used.

 

R&R:

Medic Jetpacks

Reason for denial: Jet packs were explicitly developed for inclusion in Events and will not be in any capacity added to the regular server's gameplay loop due to the large amount of issues that would arise.
