    "Heavily frowned upon." 

     

    This is the company line that keeps being regurgitated. I've literally seen shooting orders being called over TS in hostage situations to someone in a sniper position. TS is abused ALL the time. This report was closed recently.

     

     

    Where it appears someone is using TS after beng downed. I was told after the fact the voice is coming from the helicopter and sent this video.

    Where they are in TS communicating about people when they don't even know if they are suspects or not. And this is an ACCEPTABLE use of TS. TS has been used in riots in TTCF, it's been used as a way to make a kill order, to someone who was aiming at a guy holding a suspect. I defend the use of TS 100%, but it makes it very fucking hard, when everyone knows it's systematically abused and everyone just says "It's heavily frowned upon."

     

    And what I meant, by when they're shooting. I mean a constant vocal stream of every little thing that happens while they are currently in an active shoot out. 

    LOL this is actually crazy.

    Yeah makes sense when there's 5 people in duty.

     

    Not going to happen.

    Yeah when does that ever happen lol. At 6 AM? Stop the cap. If illegal rpers have to do their own callouts through IC means even though they can just RP having their phone on speaker or using AirPods etc. then why aren't LEO rpers held to the same standard? I thought this was a text-based HEAVY roleplay server.

    if you want to talk about realism

    count the seconds between the last aggression and deputies flying in

    now understand that this was at a reception, not a tier where there's most likely a tower + riot response on standby

    in any prison riot, law enforcement will have responded within seconds, it is actually advantageous for the criminals on the game as there are not many prison officers

    but if u start a riot and believe that anybody will actually get away with it in any matter u are delusional

     

    idk what interactions y'all have by driving on the road for a minute, considering the size of the map and density of the player base on said map, its not gonna change anything for LE rpers whether u have to drive to the station or not, it would just be a stupid inconvenience

     

     

    post it from your main account

  4. You guys don't have 3 minutes to drive from your home to a station? It literally takes like 6 minutes to get from Paleto Bay to LS. Most players own/rent properties inside LS regardless. If you are soooo busy that you can't spare 2-3 minutes of your day to commute and potentially run into some interesting RP then idk what to even say. It's like me saying that TTCF is boring for me so admins please cancel my sentence and release me immediately or I will cry myself to death. See how little sense does that make? Just treat it like an IC issue and move closer to the station so you don't have to commute 3 minutes but a SINGLE minute instead LOL. The double standards on this server are crazy. The fact that some staff members actually consider implementing this suggestion just shows where this server is headed to. Rename this server to "team deathmatch" already and let's forget that this was supposed to be a heavy roleplay server. Even if this senseless suggestion gets implemented, why should only legal factions have this option?

    Yes please! I tried to find some MMA gloves although couldn't find any that looked anywhere decent although these boxing gloves look pretty nice even though they're kind of large. +1

    I mean you can just put leather gloves on via /gloves and roleplay it as 4 ounce MMA gloves. I doubt that we will ever see a custom mod for MMA gloves added. Would be really cool though.

    One thing I am confused about is why there's so many Eastern European factions that are allowed as well as an Italian Mafia in modern day LA but this concept is restricted. Makes little sense but hey, it isss what it issss. 

    Well probably because IFM have no idea about LA street politics. They just wanted to pound their chests showing off how knowledgeable they are with banning this concept but on the other hand, they allow half the server's illegal scene to be Italian and Eastern European. There is no logic behind it.

    The issue was never finding good looking clothing, the issue was making it so optimized for the server and making sure it actually fits our standard. A lot of modders are in the market for clothing you can use in Menyoo for example, the server needs mods that have LODs so you can see them from afar and so on, it's not as simple as going shopping on some modder's site and picking whatever you like.

     

    I won't even start on file size and texture loss, you know the story at this point, I hope.

     

     

    Even if we paid 500 dollars on mods, we'd have a thread like this again, saying that we need more mods. Like I said in my first post, it's a never ending chase. People said they'll stop using mod packs after the second clothing update, yet most still use mod packs, we can't cover everything, it's impossible.

     

    Why do you think that people still use mod packs? Because simply there are not enough good clothing items. Half of the newly added male clothes are either bugged or no torso/pants fit with them. Or there are duplicated pants, etc. You guys are talking about slots for example but we have 20 different Hawaiian Snow clothing items that nobody wears. Just remove the bugged and not used clothing and replace it with something proper.

    All I'm gonna say is that buying a few GOOD clothing pieces, actually nice ones, from an actual creator, isn't hard. Especially for this server, you can literally put 250 dollars in or LESS and deal it out with a creator. That's literally how most FiveM servers get their clothes too I believe. Not sure why not even a little bit of the donation money couldn't have been put in for some more high quality clothing. But that doesn't matter, my point still stands where there being way better stuff than the literal sheer tops that we got.

     

    If not? Then at LEAST please just add the stuff from the unisex section that I recommended, maybe some of the more coiliy hairstyles TOO.

     

    Instead of adding more textures for the already oversized shirts that we have, and instead of adding the ACTUAL layered jersey, and instead of adding the oversized hoodies and pants and sweaters from the IGhoul collection, the bandana tank top, suspenders, a single pair of cholo pants and I think one or two more articles of IGhoul's clothing for females were added. It's genuinely not fair, the pack was based on mainly boujee RPers and it's obvious, well over obvious.

     

    Hence why I suggested even better clothing if you wanted to support more fashion-based outfits, and that's only the FREE stuff.

    Do you think this server would want to spare 250 dollars to make the community happy? We can't even get business blips for free lmao. I bet they would love to pay for some cat themed custom mods though.

    If we're being honest, no gang member in real life goes around looking to rob someone of their firearm, they wouldn't put themselves in harms way of being shot. Most people that steal firearms steal them out of houses and vehicles. If you're robbing an 80 year old woman and checking her waist I'd say there's a real RP issue that needs to be addressed as nobody in real life is robbing an elderly person and checking their waistband for a firearm, even in Detroit, Compton, Chicago, it just doesn't happen. 

    You need to understand that this isn't real life. We have created a fictional environment that is mimicking real life but we are nowhere near it. You can't talk about realism just to log in game and see 15 dead bodies everywhere every two minutes. That's not real life. People adjust to IC circumstances. Weapons are valuable as fuck here and on top of that, everybody is armed to their teeth so it makes perfect sense to check if someone's armed. It's the environment that we have created. It doesn't make sense IC to ignore the possibility of someone being armed here. You will get shot the second you don't check them for weapons. That's just how it is here. The RP standard here is so shit that it reflects on every aspect of roleplay.

    So if you're a gang member and you have the thought in your head that another person is most likely armed, why would you rob them or even attempt? you clearly don't fear for your life enough if you want to potentially rob someone that you KNOW could be armed, rather than going to a rich neighborhood and robbing some random nerdy person. It just doesn't make sense at all. Literally nobody in real life that is robbing someone goes straight for someone's waistband I can promise you that, if you find one person that's been mugged in real life ask them if the person went straight for their waistband, or even looked around their waistband. It never happens. Using the "this is America" argument on a server that portrays California is politically incorrect. I am a California resident in the Bay Area and I've seen people robbed, mugged before, and even have friends that currently gangbang. Nobody is going up to people patting their waistbands down right away, it's loot goblin mentality. 

    Bro... Guns don't grow on trees, they are a valuable commodity for any gang member. You have people robbing security guards even though they know that they are armed. Guns are valuable but they also do it just to clown their opps on social media. Most gang members are reckless as fuck and just want to earn their stripes. If you see someone lacking and you can get the upper hand on them and get a firearm on top of it? You will take the chance. But it's just common sense to check if anybody is armed. If you don't want to talk about America, let's talk about the IC situation. Everybody is armed here, everybody carries their PF gun on them and minors have firearms regardless. Your suggestion makes no sense when we talk about IC logic. Everybody should expect others to have a gun on them here due to the high crime rate and unrealistic escalations. Even if I'm robbing an 80 y/o elderly woman here I'll check their waist to see if they have a firearm here since literally EVERYBODY has one here. We both talk about realism but ain't shit realistic about this server.

    Not one single person in real life is going directly for someone's waistband when robbing them with a pistol, it just doesn't happen. Pockets? sure, shoes? sure, hoodie? sure. But who realistically is going hmm let me check this guys waistband for a gun while I'm robbing him. Never would happen it's just an unrealistic scenario overall unless they know the person is often strapped and it would be a realistic risk. 

     

    How is it unrealistic? It's America, everybody has guns. Especially gang members are overly paranoid so it makes perfect sense to check if someone's armed. You are saying it doesn't happen like you get robbed every day IRL lmao. It's the first thing on everybody's checklist when checking someone. I know here people don't give a fuck about their safety but IRL you don't want to take someone's wallet, run away and get shot in the back. You always check if they are armed. This ain't Eastern Europe, it's completely normal that people carry guns on them here.

    not surprised there's only nightclubs around when unique concepts get denied. and by "unique" i mean everything else than ur typical strip/nightclub with cancerous music molesting ur ears and an interior that melts ur gpu. i swear all these nightclubs look like fucking habbo clubs lol

    maxresdefault.jpg

    and the people going there look like habbo characters as well

    d20rvaz-3a8bfa5a-e2bd-49db-82bb-b72202a4

    LMAO

    Yeah I mean the whole process is just a pain in the ass. Wutah is very helpful but the whole "write an essay about your backstory" thing is just dumb. I can literally make anything up and there is no way for anyone to verify it. So what's stopping me from lying on the app and then roleplaying something completely different? Like what is the whole point of that. Not to mention the obstacles that you have to face with businesses in general. Like for example I had to pay 200k for my business which is located in South Central... Then add up 50k for the business script and over 200k for furniture. Then they told me I'm not even allowed to sell my business to other players and I can only get my money back that I've invested into it. But nobody is going to mention the days I put into mapping or the fact that I have to spend $25 every month just to get a fucking blip on the map or else I will get 0 customers in. Businesses should definitely be more accessible even to less wealthy characters, especially in areas like South Central. No wonder we only see a bar, pawnshop and Davis 24/7 open there since nobody wants to go through the countless hoops. Not to mention you have to wait a month for your request to get processed. I'm not blaming PM for the long waiting times but the whole wrongly-designed system needs to be reworked.

    What do you expect from a mallrat playerbase. Businesses for your average Joe character can't stick for long, because the playerbase is not interested in playing such character and as someone mentioned already looking at empty business is "soul eating" or some shit like that. Literally boring. Exceptions are on the server but they are a few of factions and players,  some have businesses and dont even open them for the reasons above. Give players all bonuses you want but if the playerbase only want clubs and bars then there is nothing you can do about it. It's like culture and I dont think is fixable

    I think a fix could possibly be limiting all these generic ass night clubs and bars and put a hard cap on them. Limit the number of them to the extreme so that your typical club-going characters can visit other businesses because there aren't that many clubs open. I remember times when there were almost ONLY night clubs and bars open during the peak. This completely fucked the mentality of most players where they got used to only going to these places.
