The way they tried to promote activity in runs by making it gather quicker hasn’t even worked, most people deadass think it’s a server bug, and get pissed off when they can’t stop gathering. They tried to make processing “faster” by introducing the processing bonus. The only time I’ve seen the processing bonus work is when I’m doing house runs or hemdtt box runs. As it stands a lot of runs are dominated by newer groups as well established groups I.E Noble, Silla etc already have enough money to piss around. At this point the server relies on newer players too. As we all know arma is a dying game, and gets very repetitive and irritating. A lot of the repetitiveness on Olympus comes from the runs, which are boring as fuck and take too long for too little pay. By catering to newer players by making runs with smaller vehicles more practical and profitable it should, in theory, be enough to keep a few people around. Runs being quicker could also help to promote cartel fighting and federal events, as Caloom said, because people will give zero shits if they lose a gear set or two when they can make a lot more money quicker than before. Runs being more abundant will also give the cops more to do rather than twiddle their fingers in Kav during low pop, which yet again, helps to promote activity crossing across both factions.
A lot of this was just elaborating on what @CaloomClark originally posted.
Yes it’s bullshit
