Let's get real - part 2 - RS5 or RS4?

[AK47]

I got told that people are inactive because of exams.

Yes, 110 people are very busy in school at the moment.

You forgot people that are still celebrating New Year and Christmas.

No, seriously, you should do something before everyone finds other communities, pretty sure that half already did.

[Rusty]

It's all good saying "better do something" but what it is people don't do is provide ways to go about it.  A community sticks together and creates a combined effort, though looking at it now it's more of a split community which is a damn shame.  Those who want to make fun about the server's situation, carry on with your shenanigans the input you provide is ever so helpful.  Ask yourself though, do you care if the server get's back to a state of normality or not?

Before finishing the roadmap, I suggest making changes that are fair between devs and players.

Random hospital spawn should be updated to Nearest Hospital.

Maybe removing the jurisdiction system for a while. At the current playerbase, I really think it's not needed. Maybe at a later time, instead of scripting it, SAPD would force their members to stick to one jurisdiction. Pretty sure Paul ( and maybe others ) did it once.

Allowing players to choose their jurisdiction would be better, and even SAPD command members hate the current jurisdiction script as it is now.

By forcibly assigning cops in a random manner, it effectively kills off all "city departments" and location-specific police sub-groups within the SAPD. These police sub-factions actually promoted a sort of healthy inter-"department" competition within the old SAPD and increased productivity.

Letting cops choose their jurisdiction would be a compromise between retaining the jurisdiction features and allowing cops to get the job they wanted.

Last time I checked (a long time ago, though) players would be assigned a juridisiction depending on the amount of cops needed for such juridisiction. If it's random right now consider it a placeholder. Same with the hospitals.

(The algorithim to determine which juridisiction meeds more c0ps is something I do not know.  )

It should go how many "incidents" happen in a given area.
If an area has alot of incidents, alot of cops would be assigned there.
If an area has little incidents, there would be very little cops there.

Same should go for Hospitals.

[IMVINCIBILUL]

I really don't like the thing with random hospital.
I don't like the thing that /resetspawn is not there,useful for gangs,families,mafias to spawn at their HQ.
I like the Last Location is still here like in RS4.
I like the new system of cops,with exams,shooting and driving and asking questions.
I don't like the thing with jurisdictions?It's really bad , Leroy explained it earlier.
The fire mission should last longer,it's too easy to make much money(10k for 3mins if you do it alone).
I'm not sure,I didn't play much as a cop but they should get their old payment , like 600$ per kill and 800$ to jail him.The suspect should get fined ,if he gets killed, with 1000$ and when he surrenders and goes to jail,he should be fined with 500$ or 400$.
Drug thing, most of the spots should be the old spots for both,heroin and weed.
I don't like the things with containers wtf...the /invent should get back to the old one,that one was perfect.

As explained by Gandalf, a command that originally started to fix buggy spawns became used more and more to return after death.

The fire mission should last longer,it's too easy to make much money(10k for 3mins if you do it alone).

These figures are incorrect. The payout is decided b the percentage of the mission and the amount of firemen online, and to earn 10k would take around 3-6 hours of fireman work.

If anything, we need more ways to inject money into the economy so many of the other features can get going as they should.

Your idea is fundamentally counterproductive, as you're giving suspects all the more reason to shoot cops or fight to the death rather than surrender, something that the current payouts actually do.

Drug thing, most of the spots should be the old spots for both,heroin and weed.

Another bad idea.

I don't like the things with containers wtf...the /invent should get back to the old one,that one was perfect.

Containers made transactions simpler, especially bulk transactions. The current flaw is in the /invent bugs, not /invent itself.

Before you assess the server's features, I would recommend studying them properly. Not just what they do, but why they work that way.

I think we should poll RS5 vs Grand Larceny. That way the votes will be a little closer together

Excuse me if it sounds rude but...
Those who "left" the community were never part of it.
The real community will stick regardless, even if they don't play the game, I believe Argonath will never be left / forgotten.
It might be going through a tough time now but we've had worst chapters in the past and we managed to keep it Argonath.
I mean, nowadays, it's so rare to see a community where people are not judging others based on their roleplaying skills but on their effort and input to the community, that's great.
If anyone tries to start a new server, like Argonath, with no srsbsns shit, no out of chracters and in-chracters and all those 1337-rp etiquette, it'll be ridicularized - and that's what made this server so unique, it really is a world of its own. I'm pretty sure we'll be seeing Argonath on the "hot-list" again quickier than we can imagine (:

EDIT: I know I don't even play but hey, I'm still here dawgs
