GothAngelSinner Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) Detailed Description Gas prices right now in the USA is about $6 - $7+ a gallon in a lot of the States in the USA. I think we should increase gas prices in-game to simulate what's going on currently not only in the USA but globally. Relevant Commands/Items - How will it benefit the server? Simulates a realistic economy. Edited July 16, 2022 by GothAngelSinner Link to comment
RedRover Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) We don't have a realistic economy and it was never meant to be one, if you read through the economy feature showcase. We're also not meant to reflect IRL in everything we do. Heavy role play doesn't always mean 1:1 realism and I pray we never are. Edited July 16, 2022 by Brofessor Link to comment
Storm Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I think a better idea is to make fuel consumption higher. Right now you hardly ever need to refuel to begin with then we can go from there if prices need to be adjusted. 2 Link to comment

Because you are using cars with low fuel consumption, I'm using Dinka Akuma and Sultan RS, I need to fuel these two times a day because they consume just too much 1 Link to comment

Edit: checked and the main car I drive (The buffalo AC) uses nearly the same amount of fuel as the sultan rs and i dont have these problems, though admittedly the RS is slightly worse for consumption. Makes a difference. Edited July 16, 2022 by Storm 1 Link to comment
ScarletRose Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) To be fair, the gas prices are already like $25-30 a gallon. Which is already 5 times more expensive compared to real life. The problem is that everyone has 5-6 figures of wealth in their bank. So this amount doesn't seem that much because it's literally pennies. Literally your hourly unemployment wage pays for gas on this server Edited July 16, 2022 by ScarletRose Link to comment
Junx Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 These irl issues u mention would not be present on gtaw since COVID and Ukraine conflict doesn't exist here. -1 1 Link to comment

People gotta remember that the server lore isn't point for point accurate with real life. Ukraine / Russia isn't happening. Covid.. Isn't happening. Brexit, isn't happening etc etc Link to comment
