Economy Reset

I definetly agree there shouldn't be a restart, yet I can't help but notice the powercreep within the last year. Over 3 years ago we had zafirs removed cause they were too powerful, back then everyone would run around with MXMs and other currently "low tier" weapons. Only UNMC would be the ones allowed the heavy weapons like the .50 cal snipers or 100 round MX SWs.(Mind the fact that a 100 round mag for the SW was considered a super powerful thing by contemporary rebels). Now within this year not only did the supply drops bring back the MK200 and Zafirs to the play, but we also can simply buy level IV armour, for cheap while at it. I fear the ease at which top grade wapons can be acquired is directly causing the issues some people here mentioned. I for one would love to see the removal of IV vests as they take away the fear factor and go back a year or 2 when it comes to available weapons. Does a roleplay server really need military grade weapons easily accessible? Not only would I reduce the ammount of available gear, I'd also double the prices for the 7.62 sniper grade weaponry. Now not to nerf rebels only. Back in the day we didn't have NCA and AR was a much more exclusive group run solely by Maratek and the higher ups. I am not a member of police and never have been for long. Yet I'm under the impression that it isn't particularly hard to get access to the good weapons as well. Even if you aren't admitted to AR you can still get cool weapons just by patrolling with NCA,not even being part of it.

TLDR: Bring back the weapon meta from before supply drops and double the 7.62 prices while cutting down on police ability to field "big guns".

Note it's my personal opinion based on the 3,5 years I've spent here, I am more than certain that some of you will hate the very thought of taking away the beloved level IV vests and reducing the 7.62s.

Seems reasonable to be honest... but if this were to happen it would most likely cause a riot across the island aha and we don’t want that again...

I don't think that's a good idea at all, I've only recently started (week or so) and me and my friends as a group all do aluminum runs, sometimes we get robbed, sometimes we don't. Personally, I think it'll be fun to have some people who have a lot of money, because it makes the new players get something to strive for. Also, as long as there is nothing that costs a ridiculous amount that's super OP, having lots of money shouldn't be a problem. However, people will value their life less if they have a lot of money, because they'll only have to spend around 200k to get their equipment back (That's around the price I pay for my gear.)
