bunch of nerds whining about a server wipe itt

Post by haz0r »

what the title says

yakuza, mafia etc pretty much dominant because of their 30m fbalances. how about a reduction so that smaller factions can stand a chance against the cracked up/spas12 tyrants during points/wars

and don't whine "but we worked so hard to get all the internet money!!", because you dudes usually have a new leader every few months

sincerely your best friends,

geardudes

chris bell reached 35. We actually don't use the cash from /fbalance to buy our crack and spases, everyone uses up his own money so that wouldn't really help smaller families. Wiping the server sounds fine to me.

Thing's that even if you wipe the whole server in each months, poopsockers and that kind of people will ALWAYS outmoney others.

So you could wipe it, but I don't really like that idea, it just a temporary solution that lasts like a week or a bit more.

Actually, the reason that some gangs have hideous amounts of money is because of interest from a long time ago. Also, some of the players have played over a thousand hours, easily. A wipe *would* solve this, because I don't we've had one in a very long time.

That's right, but I didn't mean that.

Wipe would definitely clean fbalances, but that could be solved by only wiping those balances. I meant the people individually, even if you do a wipe, things would lose balance shortly again. New players keep joining, old players keep levelling, etc. Eventually we'd end up the same way.

But I don't care too much about wiping. I would lose lvl 5 and 3. :D

Even if someone played for 24 hours a day, everyday of the week it would take them well over 3 months to get back to level 25+. A wipe's effects lasts a lot longer than a month.

Also a wipe sounds good, but

No, you misunderstood me. I don't say people would get lvl 30 in a week after wipe. There would be huge differences in a short time - not dozens of levels, but still, the balance might be gone in a rather short time.

use shotguns and win with skill, full crack and spas12s have never helped anybody win a fight against a more skilled opponent.
its also good knowing that your' enemy lost 100k to a bunch of chodes with cheap guns and the occasional bodyguard.

as long as this script centralizes around how much you play and not what you do while you play, wipes, taking money, none of it matters because money has no value when you make 30k every hour.

and people like you will be crying again after a week when people like ladarius carter is level 25 or some shit again.

Smaller factions always have to option not to go for points until they build up finances to fight those spas12+crack'ers. Anway yes it's not hard to beat spas12's with regular shotguns you just need to lrn2shoot.

So it's fair for smaller factions because they should wait 6+ months for their members to gain 20+ levels and then go for points and contribute to their /fbalance?

Regardless it's boring for smaller factions to do nothing but poopsock everyday because their competition is so stacked it's not even worth the reward to fight them. Larger factions have an unlimited money supply, no new faction would ever be able to compete against them in long term wars.

Oh yea roleplay, when everyone's bored it's their own fault because they weren't roleplaying enough while poopsocking, right? :dogout:
