Whole update goes hard and I'm hyped to see what illegal RPers do with the new tools, but there's two huge questions regarding the NPC vehicles which haven't seemed to be answered in the post. 1) What happens when a player logs in and their vehicle is already spawned in a randomized spot? Does the vehicle disappear midway through someone lockpicking it? Does a player have to go and retrieve their vehicle from wherever it had been spawned in? 2) What happens when law enforcement entities check the license plate of an NPC-spawned vehicle that is used in a crime? Does it get reported under the guise of John Doe, or will it be linked to the actual owner's name? If it's the actual owners name, couldn't they be in theory be criminalized for having randomly-spawned drugs in their vehicle despite never owning any?

$300,000, but requesting a viewing of the property before confirming my bid.

I hope that the introduction of the new Mirror Park homes are done through application just like the recent Sandy Shores trailers were; the last thing I think anyone wants to see here is new Mirror Park houses instantly being bought up by people who have no need for them/just want them because they've got nothing else to spend their money on.

The firearm cleaning and age being tied to weapon proficiency kinda seems in my eyes like an attempt to side-step the issue at hand with poor escalation and gun crime on the server in general. There'll still be people going on mass shooting sprees, only to either end up namechanging in jail or getting PK'd and simply running back home to get their next gun out from their home. Why not just introduce harsher penalties for those who engage in gun-related crimes and for those who choose to engage in poor escalation just because they have access to a firearm?

Sure, bring it; but introduce stuff that lets players counteract it with the right items. Some form of jamming device that ultimately delays or even straight up prevents the notification response. If there's no means to counteract an incredibly overpowered anti-theft system, what's even the point in stealing a car? You'd unironically cripple the car-theft and chop-shop scene.

Honestly, I'd even be personally comfortable with the current map mod being removed in exchange for the implementation of this. The city for the most part is in a good state in terms of it's visuals and can always have enhancement from those who have Platinum; I think it's perfectly acceptable to give the county some much-needed attention to turn it from the Window's XP desktop background into an actual wilderness that makes Blaine County a far more visually interesting environment to roleplay within.

Literally, just play a character; don't play yourself in real life (not an excuse to be a blue-haired snowflake with heterochromia). Don't make choices because it makes sense out of character for you to do so/is more profitable, make choices that are what your character would make. Play a character with flaws, be an inherently flawed person and commit yourself to those flaws 24/7. Nobody on earth is perfect. Stick to those three things, and 9/10 you'll improve your own roleplay and the roleplay of those around you.

If we still had the original Victor on the server? Sure, I’d say remove it; but the new version that has been made by @mario is an incredible overhaul that looks visually appealing compared to the previous version. The original one was a ripped port and had countless visual issues as a result, but the new one that has been implemented is very much a nice model compared to the Stanier. Gonna have to disagree with this one.

Bid of $200,000.

Bid of $180,000.

Bid of $160,000.

Keybinds would be a nice addition, but the main focus here is to rework the mobile phone script from the ground up as opposed to adding onto what currently exists; since the current mobile phone script is nothing short of an outdated and bug-ridden mess that all developers are seemingly trying to keep six feet away from themselves. It’s understandable why, the phones’ are a mess and would need a ton of work putting into them; but someone’s got to step up and do it rather than neglecting it again for the next few years to come.

Ringtones that provide /ame's and having an on-phone photos folder which you can use to send photos to other people would definitely be nice, but I think they are features that should be introduced once the foundation work has been completed when it comes to overhauling the phones; especially as well when it comes to the plentiful number of existing bugs with mobile phones. They've been far too neglected and are in dire need of both fixes and updates.

Bumping this suggestion once again as it’s still something that is considerably relevant. Even after over 5 months, none of the phone bugs even listed in this suggestion have been amended. The mobile phone script has been neglected, and is in dire need of an overhaul. It’s time to stop the useless server additions and instead focus on fixing what has become old and outdated; not leaving it to continue to rot because no developer wants to do it.

Since we're on the topic of attributes, putting in perfume/fragrance names in your attributes is absolutely retarded and contributes nothing. I don't know what the fuck Dior Sauvage or Chanel No. 5 smells like. I don't have a fucking global cologne collection next to my desk that I can use as reference for what your character smells like.

Casino’s are great spots for unique roleplay. They offer a lot to the server in terms of job opportunities and general interactions. Currently though, the fucked stare of the economy just doesn’t make it fun. One man with 500k in his bank account can bankrupt other players and dealers in under one game. Alternatively, even the worst and most scummy of roleplayers can earn 500k overnight if they know what they’re doing. For roleplay, it’s great; but the current state of the servers economy has fucked casinos for new players & characters on the server.

I’d say keep it as it is at 350 or at most go down to 300/325, but I would argue in support of decreasing the amount of time it takes for vehicles to despawn if not in use; same goes also for despawning faction vehicles not in use in order to further help combat performance loss. Player numbers in areas certainly don’t help, but I’d say reducing the number of parked vehicles certainly does help. Not like they’d be gone either considering people can /vspawn them back in.

That’s not an issue necessarily with the individuals who engage in these acts at public places, it’s because events and/or large gatherings are so money oriented they’re willing to disregard things like dress codes and attitudes if it means letting a gang walk into a club with an extra 5k in their pockets. Literally, all you’d have to do is implement things like a dress code or deny entry to larger groups (just like in real life); and the issues of brawls and shootings at large events would be resolved. When you focus on money, you stop focusing on the quality of the roleplay.

I’ll take a bandaid over just letting it become an infected mess with no treatment provided whatsoever. Just something, anything for that matter to stop and deter people from maxing out their vehicles performance stats would be appreciated. Give people a reason to not make everything on their car 4/4; add vehicle performance variety to the server.
