New and rusty

[Vladmir]

Hi guys!

Im new to the server, started here on Sunday, and im abit rusty then it comes to this gamemode and FPS's in general. Therefor, i wanted to ask a few noobie questions to get back on track.

First of all, i havent played any FPS's since i played Takistani Life Revulotion on Arma 2, so im abit rusty then it comes to general combat (mostly my aim), so for the moment i rely on making my hits count. Therefor im wondering (as i said noobie questions) how big is the diffrence between the First 9mm and the revolver?

With this i mean in terms of Range, Accuracy and Damage. The most logical i can think is that the revolver is supperior in all this, am i right here? I dont really care for the Rate of Fire, as i have no intention of spraying and praying. 

Secondly, i've all ready used up all my starting cash, getting robbed and killed left and right. I've managed to get my Gun and Driving license, aswell as a pernament offroad, so im good to go in the terms of getting from A to B. I have about 10-14K left in the bank and im wondering how to increase this in a not to difficukt/risky way. I have no intentions to piss off the police (yet), and there for im looking for a decent way of making some money through, for an instance, mining.

Could you guys recomend what i should start out with, like what minerals should i mine, and what roads to use to minimize the risk of getting jumped (again)?

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help me (and fellow new players reading this) out.

I was in the same situation as you, got robbed so many times that I had 0 cash left. Luckily I fixed up my licenses before that happened.

If I were you I'd go collect some apples and do that until you get some cash. Proceed to mine copper and sell for 1,5k per copper.. No! scratch that, because I got robbed and raped everytime I did that. There's so many people who take advantage of those spots that it's pointless.

Just go get a weed license and try your luck, it's like 25k for processing it. It's a pretty long route though, but if you manage to pull it off it's worth it, don't do it unless you have a truck with some room for cargo though. I'd farm those apples to get a truck. If you do manage to get the weed and process it, then you should go to Kavala for the best profit. Park your truck a few hundred meters away from the dealer and check the spot out before you go in with all the weed. If there's a lot of players I wouldn't risk just going up there with the truck, I'd park it and do a few runs back and forth with the truck in a safe spot.

Weed is risky, but I'd rather try something which will give me some good cash if I manage to pull it off, I never had any good success with the copper route, but the first time I did the weed route, I succeded and managed to get around 300k.

Thank you for your imput. Where would i farm apples, and where would i sell them?

Farm from apple field, Sell at market

For me it's the other way around, had problems doing weed and no problems doing copper...

Both is a good way to start, I think...

Copper route is way more popular since it's "easier" for new players to start with (close to main city ect.) Therefor it's a cuntasticly popular spot to rob people on. Sure, the weed route is pretty dangerous too, but not so many people do it. The high-class rebels on the server are usually too busy snorting cocaine all day, so they don't have time for the small time weed stuff.

Just be extra careful when you deliver processed stuff, that's the super dangerous part.
