The Pillbox Changes.

Before I start on this post I want to make it very clear that I am not slating nor attempting to discourage ANY dev work that has been done or besmudge any time spent on it.

In my opinion, and I know it's new so It may just be a case of giving it some time, the pillbox changes have not been great. I feel as though being simply blunt is the best way to approach this, I am not a fan of the "added" security up and around pillbox, I understand it was done to keep those pesky baldies out and stop people from loitering at the pillbox but it just feels as if it was a slight overkill, the sheer amount of bollards and locked gates make the pillbox seem like a type of fortress guarding high valued equipment or prisoners/individuals which it is not, it is a simple hospital. I liked the small interactions from having people drive up to the front doors asking for help or just making jokes and having a laugh, it feel's too distant now as car's aren't allowed as close. Pillbox is guarded by G6 officer's, putting up all these barriers and locked gates only takes away the RP interaction's between the security guards and the public.

Moving the "sign in man" downstairs was not the greatest move nor do I think it a bad one, which is why I think there should be TWO "sign in men" one upstairs like before and one downstairs, this way people will still use the upstairs entrance like before but can also use the downstairs should they please. The natural layout and flow of the Pillbox always made sense for the majority of the interaction's and time spent to be upstairs, not only is there large amounts of waiting areas but also a front desk making it ideal for it.


Now, I know it's new so I may just be jumping the gun or simply fond of the old ways and aura the original pillbox had but I feel like a healthy discussion can't go wrong, It would be great to hear other's opinions on the changes!
 
I kind of agree! I've talked to fellow G6 members about this too. Some weren't even sure where they should guard pillbox now. Upper? Lower?
I understand a lot of people break rule G6 Loitering everyday. But I think personally this is indeed quite overkill. Playing G6 at times could be rather boring when it's not really active, and I am afraid this takes away from that.

It's not just that tho. When I am on my police character I can respect a gang rushing the hospital to get their injured but apprehended mates back. This just got way harder due to all the new extra security measurements.

I feel like it limits the possible RP and almost designates Pillbox as a "green zone", which I think is not nessecary.

I believe it's still possible to check-in at the upstairs front desk (I haven't tried it myself but I recall seeing it mentioned somewhere) however I'm guessing that wasn't mentioned on the changelog to encourage people to check-in dead people at lower and alive people at upper as that's how it's now intended to be used
