Hello,
So I have noticed a lot of repetitive activities happening within city, whether it's robbing police or gang wars happening over one stupid thing, it's all caused from either lack of stuff to do or just boredom in general.
I wanted to suggest some RP Jobs / Activities that can either reward people with money or items that they can show off.
I'll start off with a job I personally really did love and it got me distracted and helped me meet people in city or created situations where you can help people out in city and that is:
1. Fuel Trucking - (The Fuel Drought)
Now I wanted to touch on this as I know there is a new company under the name "Greene Trucking" which I absolutely love, I love the work they do for people around the city, they do all sorts however I think fuel trucking should be a proper job again, the fuel drought shouldn't of lasted this long scenario wise in my opinion.
I generally think even though driving isn't RP it can give Police more to do as well with traffic stops for example: A truck going over the speed limit or a truck dangerously driving, I think this could add more Police RP into the city again, also at the fuel station loads of newer players in the server would go there and ask questions like "what do I do for this?" "where do I get this?" it was basically a place anyone could go to for help for general things, also you can meet people there to do business with, instead of going on Tweedle and being ignored or finding people at gang turfs.
For the fuel side of things I think maybe instead of delivering to fuel stations maybe deliver them somewhere else maybe the Airport, Docks, etc as no one really owns them as businesses and it creates NPC jobs for newer players other than just Taxi, Mechanics and Mining/Smelting
2. Mining / Smelted Ores
I would like to refer to the jewellery store that used to buy Diamonds I cannot remember how much they sold for but I know it was some money to earn for maxing out your mining level each time.
I think there should be a NPC shop people can go to, to sell either raw ores or smelted ingots, we used to have Mr. White but after the whole scenario with the server it's clear his warehouse is not going to return, I really do feel like Mining/Smelting is primarily for gangs nowadays not for anything else.
I really do feel like prices should fluctuate depending how much is sold in that shop so for instance (this is imaginary sake) Someone sells 1000 Coal and gets let's say... £64k (Again just a random number) That price will then go down and the more rarer turn ins of a certain type of material goes up more to a max selling number (So no exploiting the system) I feel like this would be such a great addition as a job for people to mine or smelt, because gangs genuinely have so much materials that they don't need more.
3. Whitelisted Mechanics - (No this doesn't mean remove the mechanic job for everyone)
There have been a lot of times where cars/bikes and trucks are left on the road and Police have not gotten to them yet or are too busy keeping the city clean from crooks, I feel like there should be a whitelisted mechanic job to where people with it they can mark down stuff for impound or help return their car to their owner.
This has been on my mind for quite sometime and I have mixed feelings about this but this could add a whole new job system to the server, just need a boss, some higher ups below boss just encase he/she is not about, also with a re-haul of the impound area that would be amazing, with an office where you can talk about signing up or promotions, the possibilities with this idea is endless.
4. Illegal Night Jobs (Time Specific In-game)
It's late at night and you're feeling like you want to rob/transport illegal items, well you can do that by going to a location where you can talk to a mysterious man/woman who hooks you up with a job of either robbing a (NPC) house or transport with a truck illegal substances to another location in the city.
Let me dive into these ideas,
- Robbing Houses (NPC)
This could be a small pay-out or a big one depending on the house you are robbing or get assigned to rob by the man/woman, you need a range of tools to get into houses depending whether it's an advanced lockpick or a drill to get into safes you need to take the risk on what you are aiming for.
When robbing houses there are cameras and security systems maybe the USB could become more useful than just LifeInvader, when caught by security systems or cameras police are notified instantly of whereabouts you are near that house and where you were caught.
I feel like this should only happen at night and requires a lot of skill, not just a walk in get out situation, I think this could add a lot of roleplay, maybe when Police arrive say "If you came anywhere near the house he/she will be shot" of course it'll be a local but it'll add RP so people don't have to grab actual people off the street and bring them in with them.
- Transporting Illegal Substances (NPC or Gang deliveries)
Now I wont get into who distributes illegal stuff in the server because a lot of people do take OOC information into city...
But I do feel like this could be a way to give criminals more to do than just rob police for fun, just like Gus runs this could give criminals some extra money or some contraband like (Lockpicks, Armour, Weed/Cocaine (Smaller Amounts to balance) and maybe some weapon attachments if we are feeling generous here.
This to be only done at night with a truck either a Benson or Mule because they have obviously back storages unlike Phantoms etc
If you are to be caught by Police that will give you a big sentence for trafficking whatever you're trafficking or if a gang sees you transporting it and wants it you're going to have to plan this out very smartly and you have until sunrise to deliver that package otherwise the mission gets called off and police get a notification of a suspicious truck (or maybe not I don't know just adding twists and possibilities)
Now onto the gang side of things, as a gang you might want to order some things like drugs or other illegal contraband this could work the same way only that when it is delivered it goes into a safe of your choice, this to be only done by gangs and organised by the gang members.
This will also keep police on their toes looking out for suspicious looking trucks or motorway patrols.
Please keep in mind these are just some ideas if you like one and don't like the others just quote which ones you like and dislike, but if you like one please help by upvoting the suggestion and quoting the one you'd love to see and if you want some other things added in similar leave them down below and talk about it!
I want to add more but it'd be more longer than a big changelog so I wanted to keep a few ideas in here
Pros:
More to do
Increases RP
More Realism
Content to show-off
Cons:
Development Work
Poor RP (Can ruin it)
Bugs can be created
And also thank you for reading!
