/c duty thief = Ruger + tec + 10 grenades
/c duty assassin = Sniper ( not laser ) and ruger + katana
Whay you guys think?
Like VCID and SWAT
-
No need for this, All it will do is some more DM and whats the point of it? you can go buy the guns yourself and rp a assassin or thief.

Maybe there should be another way to get guns without "buying" for citizens. Having no money limits players from being a criminal because they can not 'afford' guns. Usually they can get money from friends but there should be an alternative.
-
Yeh right..
Currently, to get anything you need to invest some amount....which is hard for new players (especially criminals).
Any other suggestions?

Maybe some way to steal guns from creates at the docks or something?

or steal some from the the PD's locker rooms, or any other PD. :)
-
Think of smuggling rather than stealing....
Coz to steal, you would already need guns to confront cops.
Why would someone buy guns to steal more guns? :)

thats what i sayid! :wow:
*modifies his post*

You don't need guns to open creates

how u want the cmd to work?

This is where u step in and give pay days

That doesn't solve anything. Guns are still only available through buying them.
-
I have thought of a smuggle/steal script...
Which will make it possible for criminals to get free Weps.
Also, smuggling from pirates will give Drugs and Antiques which can be sold in Jewelery stores for $$$
-
Tell me about this idea in more detail, please
-
how about you walk up to the police department do /c stealgun <gun name>
and depending on the caliber of gun get more wanted lvl
so a bazooka would give more wanted then a colt45
and then evade like in bank rob
only if your jailed you dont get to keep the guns

But then criminals will always steal Rocket launchers and have a high wanted level, also meaning that cops will get so much cash from killing them over and over if they keep stealing.

It would be too easy and the "auto suspect" idea I don't like.

+1
I mean, IRL you go and kill a cop (he's alone), but that doesn't send a report to a HQ or something

Every 20 mins a message appears:
[IMPORTS] Shipments have arrived in Viceport Docks.
With every shipment....pirates hide an illegal Cargo under the wrecked Sea Shack.
Smugglers can visit that sea shack and take the hidden cargo.
How?
When the message appears, smuggling script is auto-enabled...
Now, smugglers can go to the wrecked Sea Shack and type /c smuggle <Weps/Drugs/Jewels>.....
Atleast 2 smugglers are needed to pick up that cargo (coz its heavy)....
The more the amount of smugglers....the better cargo you get....
Weps: (to all smugglers, present at the sea shack)
2 smugglers-katana,shotty,colt
3 smugglers-better weps
4 smugglers-even better weps
more than 4 smugglers- Spaz, mp5, M4
Drugs: (to all smugglers, present at the sea shack)
2 smugglers-5 Weed
3 smugglers-10 Cocain
4 smugglers-10 Heroin
more than 4 smugglers- 5 Extacy
Jewels (To only the smuggler who types /c smuggle)
He gets $Amount worth of Jewels.
Amount=1000*N*(N-1) , Where N is the number of Smugglers at Sea Shack.
Jewels can be sold at a jewelery store by /c selljewels and you get :money: (only the main smuggler gets the cash)
The main smuggler can split the cash in whatever way he wants.
If there are cops near you when you do /c selljewels....the Jewelery Store dealer will refuse to accept illegal goods.
So you have to make sure you make the deal either clean.....or you clean the cops near the Jewelery store.
There is no auto-sus in this.
Cops will have to suspect smugglers on patrol.
Criminals can bribe cops to make things easier.
Though this wont satisfy the weapon needs of criminals......coz it will happen only once in 20 mins.
But still....something is better than nothing :)
also, this provides opportunities to earn cash from selling jewels or drugs. And this can be good for new players because this needs no investment of any kind.
Veteran players might need the help of new players while smuggling, coz Quantity matters....more the smugglers, better the reward.
What say?
-
Time for cops to camp at a sea shack..
I like the idea Daddy. It's worth a shot and seeing the outcome.
-
Added...
Still in beta, havent tested it yet with more than 1 player.
Hint for VCID:
/c plantbug at the Sea Shack instead of camping :razz:
-
it should be lvl 5 admin set ppl like .... would abuse it =o
-
which cmd level 5?
what abuse? :O
-
where is exactly the wrecked seashack?
-
where is exactly the wrecked seashack?
There are three sea shacks at south of Vice City in the middle of Vice Port and Ocean Beach. Two sea shacks are still in one piece however one of them is totally trashed and wrecked. Go and have a look. I guess this is what aXXo is referring to
-
yea, thats what i tought. just wanted to be sure.
-
Cool stuff, Daddy ;)

Cool stuff, Daddy ;)
It was pretty cool, but there was no instructions and no indication to if or how I was smuggling.

Need to put Info Pickup :p
-
And something like /c checkimports to know if the script is enabled or not.
-
True, tho I found it out with the !smugglehelp :D
-
IMO there shuld not e a pick up
-
I found out !smugglehelp
Still, there was no info on how to sell jewels
-
When you do /c smuggle it displays what all you can smuggle.
When you do /c smuggle jewels it shows what to do with those jewels.
anymore suggestions?

I thought of this new idea for criminals....
The Idea is to evade your wanted level.
Commands: /c hide, /c reveal
When some criminal types /c hide
His marker is removed from the map, and he is frozen.
The cops receive a message <<Nickname is hiding. Last seen at AreaName>>
AreaName is a random area near where the criminal typed /c hide.
The randomness of AreaName will depend on number of players in the server. The more the players, the more accurate will be the area.
After hiding the criminal can type /c reveal when he thinks the time is right.
He is un-frozen, His marker is back.
3 things can happen:
- The criminal was hiding for long enough time (time depends on his Wanted level). There were no cops near, so he was uncrimed.
- The criminal was hiding for long enough time (time depends on his Wanted level). BUT there were cops near, so his cover is blown.
- The criminal wasent hiding for long enough, so his cover is blown.
NOTE: You will be frozen when you type /c hide. The only way to get unfrozen will be to /c reveal.
So if you are hiding and a cop is holding a shotgun on your face.....the only option you have is to /c reveal and run.
NOTE: /c area and /c dis wont work while you are hiding.
NOTE: This system wont work in case of bank robbers. Or if some VCID has planted a bug on you.
The only problem is, you are hiding....someone is spectating....and he hates you :devroll:
:ps: I cant create the evade system like robbank for general suspects, coz it will lag the scripts when there are many wanted players (everytime :lol:).
So what'd ya think? :)

If people can spectate and find it out, there's no point...

Its true. Cop would do:
1. /kill
2. spectate to find the criminals hiding spot
3. spawn back as cop
4. goto the hiding spot
5. kill criminal
-

Ok, then arpd hiding part should be removed too ... coz ppl helping criminals can see them...
its a good idea daddy, should be implemented, There are all types of rulebreakers, admins should dealt with them.
btw script can be made that non-admin players cant spectate... (though not required that much)

This idea sounds nice and would make this hiding idea even nicer

In the criminal evade case, cops can easily /kill and check it out. Criminals on the other hand are not allowed to /kill due the ''no suicide as a suspect'' rule. Criminals are the main target of stealths, and you can not describe the exact position in a situation like that.

This is criminal ideas, not Llama ideas.

Scripts have no control over spectate mode. Wont be possible.
imo, noob cops wont ever get the idea of mis-using the spec mode.
And experienced players aint that cheap xD

You underestimate ARPDs cheapness

I really like the shipment idea. Likewise, perhaps add a script that spawns medium class weapons at random locations which are ever changing across the map (of course, only have very few spawn points) - if at all possible. For a criminal, if it just happened to be their lucky day, they might run into one. Or in particularly difficult to access areas, fixed spawn points could be added, in order to help those criminals with slightly lower self-esteem. ;)
The idea about hiding as a criminal would be very effective, for not the spectate mode (like already said :)). Just linking to that idea, would it be possible to add a script that completely hides your location, but with movement still enabled, and which you can use as a form of evasion for a fixed amount of time - perhaps a minute, in which time you can make a getaway, and gain a lead on anyone that was after you?
To prevent this lifeline being abused, maybe give the option of only having very few of these options per login/spawn session. Or, another way to do it would be to use random icons which are dotted across the map, which criminals can pick up in order to gain this option. As I know we can't literally create our own icon, this could just be one of those mission checkpoint orbs (such as in the GTA:VC game itself).

Yeah definitely. We are so cheap that we heal during combat, we flame when we get killed, we don't respond to any roleplay attempt and we just go in blazing the entire place. [/sarcasm]
