I don't think there will be a way to remove any special items without massive backlash and outrage.

I think this is why we will have to make an in RP reason of why they were removed. I think the whole "gencorp" thing is a great idea and I want to continue that and maybe have some competition for "gencorp" in the future

You could do what Call of Duty did after realising they fucked up with Exo Suits and create a server similar to boots on the ground where it's got no suits, so people aren't having their items taken from them and can still use them on whatever the other server would be I suppose.

or that I guess that is what server 2 will be if this happens

Its up to you and the others in the cm team after all but I personally don't see anything good out of removing items from the game it will really create massive problems, no matter how you back it up there will still be at least a fair amount of people that will bitch about it forever.

Let's reset the whole server so we're all poor

I mean I am all up for a server like that but let's experiment with disabling things first yea?

But I think most people have a problem with the economy, I have mixed feelings about a classic style server or just a wiped server in general, as I really would love to play it, but I don't know how long it would last but I just want the same feeling of what basing and raiding felt like, when aim was actually required I loved that shit, I'm not too bothered about some suits but suits like the Mummy are just retarded you shouldn't be able to hold a suit out and not worry about it getting ripped imo there should always be a worry of getting a suit out that you're going to lose it, but with the Mummy I just don't think there is one, also I'm not a big fan of all these golden items.

Ezehzz wrote: this I actually like, dunno bout you but I'd hard grind that shit, changing s2 or s3 to a wiped server would be pretty fun, I'd imagine it'd be a lot easier to do with s3 though considering it's on a separate host but idk about the technicalities

SorIe wrote: Problem is, you can't just wipe one server and then have people play it for however long. Even for a test, because then you have the people who bitch that the test is over and it goes back to normal claiming they lost a bunch of hard work, despite knowing what they signed up for. Stupid people can't be pleased, just a sad fact.

Imagine how fun this would be. It was so fun back in the days where you only used drugs and a few special weapons. When the Jugg was introduced, it was a little bit fun but they just took it too far. Now, it's about the amount of suits you have. If you don't have a mummy and friends with suits, It's impossible to actually nuke etc without getting killed within seconds.

It was so fun when people used to raid and base, because when you actually lost, for example a Thundergun, you got sad. The thundergun was around $5m and it was honestly a pain in the ass to lose that. Now, people use those items instead of normal weapons.

A clean server would be so fun, new people can actually have a chance to make money without getting rushed by mummies and gluons, it's impossible.
Though, there will never be a complete wipe because people purchased a lot of boosters and they can't just take that away from people, chute also needs to find new ways to make money from the server (Not by adding double boosters with a lot of cases - it just ruins everything), just try to find new ways, if he now cares about getting a lot of money.

Everything gets worse when you grow up

I think job reworks are in order. Either that or new jobs should be introduced. It’s extremely boring to RP as a non criminal job at the moment, and especially if you’re a banker, the fact that some cops don’t know what they’re doing and end up destroying your legal business doesn’t help.


New Jobs:
With the addition of new jobs, I believe that newer and more veteran players alike would be able to have new experiences on the server, boosting playtime and overall giving a more enjoyable experience.

- Real Estate Salesman
We all know that there are certain buildings that are preferred for basing, so why not be able to rent out buildings to individuals or gangs? The RES can purchase buildings, and set a price to charge for someone to own the building. This amount would be deducted from their balance every half-hour or so.

- Pharmacist/Bartender
The pharmacist job would allow them to create certain drugs legally, like Morphine or Amphetamine. Bartender job would be essentially the same job but with booze, still produces it legally.

- Banker
The banker job needs a rework. I believe that there should be some kind of entity that you can spawn in that holds printers in place, and wires the money from the printer to the printer owner every 10-15 minutes. The banker can charge a certain percentage via an option on the entity, and that would be deducted from the amount sent to the printer owner. The entity wouldn't trigger police scanners, therefore would not give them a valid reason to raid.

- Chef
The chef can cook items that temporarily boost your stats, like health, damage reduction, health regen, etc. A food/water meter can be implemented, but since it's SSRP and not SRP I'm unsure if that's a great idea or not, but you could try it I suppose.

- Drug Dealer
Add new drugs that can be grown/manufactured.

- Vigilante
This job wouldn't be classified as police, but this job allows the player to arrest/kill criminals for a bounty. Make it so that only certain "hardcore" crimes (like murder or assault) would give the bounty. This job can use citizen player models, and the job title will be "Citizen" (the one under their name); just so the people that are wanted don't KOS them. Vigilantes can still be arrested by the police.


Spending Cash In-Game:
There need to be more ways to spend cash in game. The economy is so inflated, and there needs to be a way to somehow get money out of the hands of players (for example, when you buy a car; that money is gone forever. It doesn't go to another player, it's essentially gone). In game tournaments with an entry fee may help with this, with different brackets for new players, older players, veteran players, and people like paramontana. _xd

Let me know what y'all think.

I don't know when the last time you played was but police so far have got the biggest overhaul / rework, with a new job which is FBI. There's a lot you can do as police now so rather than me trying to explain it would probably be better if you played it to exprience it for yourself.
