Battle for Darwin Rebel and Cartel Gangs throughout Altis have somehow managed to put their differences aside to form a treaty and have taken control of Darwin! Police have retreated into the Darwin Police Outpost and negotiations are currently ongoing. Should negotiations fail, Darwin could turn into a War Zone..... Key Details Date: Saturday 1st of February Time: 7:30pm Sydney Time - 1930 AEDT Where: TeamSpeak - Rebel Leaders are expected to be in TS coordinating between different gangs Prizes / Rewards The gang / division with the most kills will receive 2 million each along with a high tier weapon. Additional prizes for participation may be given out by Senior Staff at their discretion Additional Rules If negotiations fail, Darwin will turn into a War zone. Any participant in Darwin will be KOS with No NLR Senior Staff may provide items and vehicles at their discretion. More rules may be posted closer to the date

people have suggested this at least a dozen times but its never been put in or worked on from what i remember. good suggestion tho

why bother

That would be the only way to do it, the size of the zone- maybe 1km or 500m?

I assume it would be a KOS field, so the zone would move as well?

This could be a good change as it gives both cops and rebels something new to fight over and you could possibly have different spawn locations. Have it on a timer too?

Like the event last night, they could add in a sort of convoy event which spawns in maybe once or twice a day and has guns, gear and other things that might be useful (but nothing too powerful, so maybe like the airdrop contents with perhaps a vest or two). This would make it so cops and rebels can interact and have PVP and whatnot, and perhaps some roleplay may come out of it. Would be fun to trial this idea though.

There needs to be content for every one to do. Such as, challenges, levelling system etc. Give people a enjoyable reason to play and the player pop might increase.
