utetwo Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) I propose that we add more ways for a player to spend their money Grinding in PoliceRP is very rewarding, and there are many ways to do so. Because of this, it's common to see people with up to 100 million dollars here in PoliceRP, however, they have nothing to spend that money on but two things; Cars to get to places quickly Guns to make more money This is a problem, this is one of the main reasons people leave PoliceRP; lack of spending choices. Adding options to grind is great to retain your player count, but if the players have nothing to spend their earnings on, they will quit. How would this work? First of all, you would have to come up with a list of new things to buy, such as: Accessories for your character, a way to show off your wealth (Idea by Phoenixboy300) Food and water, without them, you die Gasoline for your cars Decorations/furniture Security devices for bases Turrets Advanced cameras/monitors Alarm systems Motion sensors Doors that go down in "lock-down mode" Etc Adding things like these could really distinguish Gaminglight PoliceRP from other DarkRP servers, and could potentially bolster the average player count into the hundreds. How players would purchase items There are multiple ways that players could buy these items, I suggest we add jobs to sell the more specialized equipment, but have NPC's to sell the basic things, like Furniture and Accessories. A few jobs that could be added: ADT Salesman (Security device seller) Advanced clothing dealer (Basic clothes will be sold via NPC) Advanced food dealer (Basic food will also be sold via NPC) Etc Conclusion I hope this suggestion is considered by staff. I believe these additions could dramatically increase the servers popularity and incentive to buy VIP+ (If some of these jobs are VIP+ exclusive). Please share any criticisms and/or suggestions building upon the idea.

𝙁𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙯𝙚 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Cars :Last couple of months a good amount of number of cars were already added. Gas for cars is a idea ive always like: more rp ect Security stuff for bases a huge no: bases already to op as they are now. Decorations: not needed already enough props to use. Buyable clothing is a good idea. More character diversity, your own unique player. Food system, not a fan of that. Disrupts/interupts RP moments or something else. Just not needed and wanted. +/- Support Former S.W.A.T Commander & J.M.T Member Quote Best driver of the year award Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruben On The Radio Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I agree with some of these points. but for example the food and drinking addon that you require or you die doesnt seem very effective to me. it would only cause more issues as it is not wanted or needed and no need for extra security since you can make a very secure base if you just take some time to build one "When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor.
