Hey there everyone, Today we're releasing our next gameplay update for AL. The goal of this update is to both add a bunch of new guns and gear along with several changes to mechanics that we hope encourage a more enjoyable combat experience. A large component of this is a large rework of MRAPs, which our friendly AL admins discuss here I would also once again like to thank our map dev @Chadd for his hard work!

Changes to the armour meta Today we have fast tracked some changes into the content patch set to go live at 3pm with hopes that it will reduce the overall use of armoured vehicles on the server while promoting other vehicles and foot combat. With the BI patch to Ifrits shortly after the wipe and the removal of the door animation along with player concern, we feel now is the time to push for change as the armour on armour meta has existed for too long, has grown stale and delivers bad combat. Changes Striders added back and to become the primary rebel vehicle moving them away from the overuse of Ifrits. Ifrits are now priced at 3m for police and 4m for rebel. Slight price increase to Strider/Hunters. Drastically increased fuel consumption for all MRAPS. Increased chop prices of all MRAPS This will be a 2 week trial, everything listed on this post is subject to change. The initial phase is to see how striders hold up as they are an overall weaker vehicle (in both damage resistance and speed). We don't want to remove armoured vehicles, they are both an integral part of gameplay for police and rebel factions, current Ifrit prices are to promote the use of Strider over Ifrit (we are NOT wiping Ifrits from garages), After 2 weeks we will reassess and make changes based on feedback. Prior to commenting on this post, please take a look at damage charts to understand why we feel these changes are needed, (borrowed from Reddit) DAMAGE CHARTS Here Please use this thread to provide VALID feedback on these changes, anything deemed not valid will be hidden. Be sure to check out the devblog for all the new changes and contact DLC content added. Thanks, Bouda & Kat.

Kozlice Shotgun and city limits. With the addition of the Contact DLC to the Altis Life server today, a new weapon was added, the Kozlice Shotgun. The long barrel variant is a tad too powerful to keep within city limits so we're restricting its use so it won't see itself inside city limits. To help players mitigate their love affair with shotguns and wanting to use it to kill some cops, we've added the sawed-off variant of the Kozlice to the civillian gun stores which allow players to use the weapon inside city limits to their hearts content. The rule changes are as follows: Old: 2.7 Civilians may not enter city limits with / or use any of the following ; concealing clothing (balaclavas, face masks), assault weapons (anything larger than an SMG or holds more than 30 rounds), armoured apparel (clothing with armour rating, vests that cannot be purchased from a civ store) or rebel vehicles (any vehicle not able to be purchased from civilian stores). New (changed italicised): 2.7 Civilians may not enter city limits with / or use any of the following ; concealing clothing (balaclavas, face masks), assault weapons (anything that cannot be purchased from the red civ gun store), armoured apparel (clothing with armour rating, vests that cannot be purchased from a civ store) or rebel vehicles (any vehicle not able to be purchased from civilian stores). This rule change will go live on Sunday at the 3:00 PM restart.

That's honestly sad to hear, a lot of the best RPers and funnest RP I've ever seen has been Rebels who put in the effort to roleplay and outwit the cops rather than gun them down

proves his point doesn't it bruz Constantly complain about us zerging but thats the point of banks you're supposed to defend something hard not rip out ai driving at you.

rebels have always been about the frags yes but when they got knocked or tazed even at bank and after bitching like girls they still were able to roleplay and were pre good it. and i use small brain because its true they only think about there group and themselves what about the new people who join that want to roleplay and then leave the server cause barly anyone goes like because of this you get alot more city rats because of this the population of the server will go stale then you start bleeding pop then your og players that like fraging get bored so they leave anyway. how to keep new players that do want that roleplay and possbily have fun fragging increase roleplay between cops/civ and og players accually help and show new players

That's how life works you win some or you just don't win, do you expect in IRL to go sell drugs without being robbed or caught. Having people camping there makes the game better instead of just doing runs consistently without a fight I love this point because it's so true as I have played in all factions and I know the feeling of that roleplay, but its the way it is you can't change that This is mostly true what do you think rebels should do, Roleplay with each other at cap points, Nah as rebels we are focusing to kill people and just mess around Bruh, Luke is a legend OK! if you remove the OG people then the server will die because we lose people who keep server population up. This is used a lot because there are kids who think they are god at this game (mostly Sydney rats) but they actually not. I mean @Nigel Gluesniff I know what you are meaning with your post and I agree with some of it but there's stuff that won't be able to change because how people are used to in-game

@Zesty when i join it was 80% roleplay kid stop being brain dead @Kevin-Rogers yeah because ive been watching you cops day in and day out failing at the basics of being a cop ? and getting players opinions on the server which certain others should be doing rather than just listerning the frag hungry kiddies that will leave the server for more combat/better combat or get banned over and over again

here's my 2 cents Sydney has been a mess for years it's been the center of the server for almost 5 years now maybe every now and people go out from Sydney to do drugs or rob banks. Back even when we had 10 people on the server Sydney has been the center of the server due to city been bigger then the others and due to how popular sydney has always been. Maybe Cops and civ should leave Sydney and go some where else but the issue with that is the map is to large and you won't see everyone and then there's no RP really happing and so on so your kind of stuck at a win and a loss so to put it to Basic terms. Everyone leaves Sydney Pro: Not center of attention and people and might encourage RP. people might be able to do more RP situations some where else. Everyone leaves Sydney Con: too big of map for RP server. potential lose of population due to not having a center meeting point or main town. won't see another person for ages due to the scope of the map. Also to add on the AL server has always been about RP but mainly shooting and this has been an issue for ages it should have been a strict RP server it's a role play which means create a person and RP like hell it shouldn't have revolved about shooting people 24/7. Yes SP robbed the banks a lot i think one night they robbed the banks 3X-4X times in one night. but the server has changed alot since i was last on (2 Years ago) staff can't always enforce RP to 90 players a night with the staff only been 10%-15% of the population of Alits life. The amount of Help desk issues the staff deal with on a night basis is crazy. But it's upto the players to make or do what they want with the server as a whole like if most of the pop don't want to RP out of situations and shoot then you can't do much it's up to the Player-base on what wants to happen if the players start Doing More RP situations lay down the guns and don't shoot as much and encourage RP then as time goes on people will notice and it might a change might happen but until then you can't change everyone but it's gotta start with the gangs/cartels/cops and as time goes on the server will change but at the end of the day I can sit here all day telling people suggestions for changing the server but it's upto the players on what they want and the staff/management to enforce and change the rules as they see. but hey I'm just a Old retired Staff member that comes on here once in a blue moon to see what's happing and comment on certain things. Thanks for Reading, Lachlan
