    Even if there was that many cops on its likely some are out on operations (capture points, house raids etc) and not in Sydney (probably a max of 8-10 cops in Sydney

    Would be nice to see something new in there. Also nice work on this post, everything looks awesome!

    Lads, Couple days ago iamjack made the suggestion of a dispatch type role (along with a couple others within the patrol) that would be tasked with taking verbal dispatchs from distressed civilians etc. COs could choose to active it or not, and poke them if someone joins the channel in teamspeak to notify them that they need assistance. In game another button could be added to the tablet for the 000 helpline that would open teamspeak for the user, additional if you fellas feel it necessary a button for police to push to say that its active. Cheers Loxton

    Only reason I feel the first rule is there is because if the police and a gang are in dec both are on equal playing fields, its pretty annoying if your the cop yarning to a CIV and old mate in a gang who you deced on 4 minutes and 59 seconds ago domes you cause you can't use their gang tags. Only fix to this would be to use uniforms but this could be abused easily aswell. Whole point of SYD city limits is that 6.5, heavy armor vests etc are illegal to give cops an advantage to controls CIVs inside city limits. Don't like it try out the capture points or banks where GD and SRT will be bringing 6.5s etc to fight you.

    Could save the hassle of adding a new charge and use the "Obstruction of justice" charge which is pretty general anyways. Think its only $10k ticket however so it won't cover the drone (from what I remember the price to be) & as lenny said there about a 1 in 50 chance of catching the person when its full pop. Anyways this is off topic but I liked the post and agree that some rules definitely need some tweaking. ?

    Ever been on GD and "The authorities can conform that the bank of Brisbane is currently being robbed, this is considered an act of terrorism and any citizen found near the bank may meet declared lethal force." or been dealing with a naughty civilian in Sydney who you've been chancing for 30 minutes to finally catch.. "The authorities can conform that the bank of AGL is currently being robbed, this is considered an act of terrorism and any citizen found near the bank may meet declared lethal force." Then finally get back to general duties to control Sydney starting to re-gear up and "The authorities can conform that the Federal Reserve is currently being robbed, this is considered an act of terrorism and any citizen found near the bank may meet declared lethal force." First of all I do understand this is a 'combat ordinated server' and it gives rebels quote "something to do" but to explain it simply its a right pain in the ass. I do understand its good fun for some officers but like situations like last night where there was only 3 GD officers on to 10 divisional officers it feels as if this simple server mechanic is becoming more and more broken. Back when I was on the force back in 2018 it was lessor of an issue due to there being a reduced amount of major robberies (think 3-4 at the most) so each one had a separate cooldown which reduced the amount of robberies happening back to back or close to each other. I think other GD officers would agree with me in saying its actually nice to do GD and have a fat yarn to a few civies while rocking round SYD limits, instead of going into robberies where IX is just robbing the bank to bait cops instead of actually robbing the bank to rob the bank ?. I propose that all Major Robberies have the same cooldown of at least 15-30 minutes, while federal reserve takes a longer cooldown for the higher reward. This wouldn't really be the end of the world for rebels, as it could actually cause some interesting roleplay such as 'protecting other banks' from other rebel gangs to rob the one they want to. The roleplay reason for this could that due to a recent robbery bank all banks of altis have been closed to reconsider security. Would love your guys opinions on this. Loxton

    But that would require an update ?

    So whats the definition of 'soon' ? Jokes aside got to be something in the pipeline that we can look forward too.

  11. I popped in a while back just to check up on what was happening round the place and felt pretty saddened by the numbers, although as discussed above it has been gradually dropping for a couple years. While searching round life servers I got the feel that they aren't quite as 'polished' as Straya with menus being slow and looking bundy as shit ahah. However this is well and truely besides the discussion I'd love to take a minute to thank the developers for the hard work for making the mission file in the first place. Reading over a few suggestions a few people suggested changing the map to Tanona, I'd personally love a change of scenery and I'm sure a few other members would too. Another suggestion is for CIV jobs, I'd personally love to fuel delivery missions and mechanics / bounty hunters (as suggested above) Cheers you lot, Loxton

    Ads (altis delivery service) bugs

    BUG 1: Deposit Prices So I have completed a few jobs for ADS and have seen the deposit prices go up and up again, do not know if this is a feature or a bug. Example my current deposit to take a mission is $180,000 which is ridiculous as the highest paying mission is $147,036 from Sofia Cargo yard to SYD Port. A normal trucking company would lower the deposit needed for those drivers who have made successful deliverers before. BUG 2: Restraints in Vehicle Untested from rebel perspective, only experienced from driver(mission takers) side While on a trucking mission before, rebels decided to take me hostage and did not have pliers to unrestrain me. All was good but they were unable to pull me out of the vehicle to unrestrain me after they had placed me in the vehicle. I have not tested this from the rebel side and would imagine its not possible but they did seem new so they may have not known how to pull me out?

    I find this update incredibly helpful for all three sides within the server! All recently requested suggestions have been added by the looks of it. Great work!

    Problem is people need ID to confirm it's not some terrorist walking into PD ? I mean if you wanna do that when I'm on maybe we could have at least 1 person awarded it ?

    Just gonna chuck my personal opinion in even though its not really relevant to the topic. I personally hopped on Anzus a while ago, for an hour or so, checking everything out, yes they do have some good ideas but everything is clunky and not well made, full FPS drops when you enter the ATM stuff like that. Props to @Connor. for the well made mission file and assets within it because it definitely shows how much efforts been put in. If it is true that he's stolen mission files then that should be plain embarrassment to himself, you profiting off other peoples work which you didn't have the decency to pay for in the first place. I honestly hope I don't see you on Straya Frank and personally think you should think about yourself, change a bit because the person you were before, or still are now is one that shouldn't be associated to arma 3 RP.

    While driving back through Sydney to deliver to the port, I felt a touch of nostalgia and in turn felt it was necessary to make this post. Not everyone is going to agree with this post and that's just how the world works. While my time on the server has been limited (almost 6 months) I feel that most of the memories I have made were in Sydney, lining up on the wall when you were a pub-slot, the cancerous but quality RP SYD bridge, and all the people I met. I understand why head-administration did it, it must have caused complete and utter chaos in help desk and everyone needed a change, I just don't think I was ready for such a large change. I have been playing the new update for a while and although its nice to have a fresh new location to patrol and and new sights to see I still miss the old locations just as much. The same RP has staled out in Brisbane & Melbourne, compared to Sydney where you knew everyone would be. As I also come on during the mornings (NZST) I see alot of pub-cops and myself patrolling together, and since there isn't a city limits buffer its straight into gun welding rebels who are far better combat ready compared to fresh, green pub-cops (although some are very good a tazer rifle is completely useless compared to a 6.5 etc). I feel Sydney is completely useless now, I haven't seen many people there at all and one of the main reasons you would go there is because of deliveries. I feel this is a complete waste of quite a useful part of the map. By moving people around the map its caused the server to lose 1/4 of it again. Although I did feel the 'rebel' narrative was an amazing idea and executed very well with broken buildings, graffiti in Sydney etc it lacked involving the players, the whole thing could have been run a whole lot differently. I feel a different city that wasn't Sydney should have been chosen aswell, it seems weird to leave the largest city on the map completely useless. I do understand that higher-ups want opinions on the new map, and suggestions to keep it fresh. I just felt this post was necessary to get it off my mind and my opinion to be known, its up to you how you take it. Thank you Loxton

  24. Hey Guys This is my guide for you people who do not have ready access to a proper microphone. A lot's not as good as a proper microphone it can still do the job really well. Positives The plus side of it is that it makes roleplay and general gameplay a hell of a lot easier than. ZERO cost whatsoever Very short lag Available to both IOS (Android) and OS (Apple) Negatives The negative side is that you need to either pick up your phone to talk or have it close to your mouth all of the time. Guide to getting it working Click this to go the companies website. It has a more in-depth guide on the website if you have any trouble either consult that or myself. Sometimes it can be a little temperamental so give it a few tries.
