[JoshThePenguin]

Its only being seen as moaning I guess.

I'm always interrested in some changes....
But,

Just had a mission, we discussed how to play fairly.
Firemen waited for the other ones before starting to spray!
This is a vision that we can change the system by ourselfves to encourage teamwork....

Guess, closing this topic right now is the best thing?

If the firemen could keep it up, it would be fine as it is...
But No.... last mission, the firemen totaly changed again, didn't say any location again, rushed towards it, started ramming each other...
This is just a huge failure again.

Only a bit unfair.

Greed destroys roleplay. Simple as that.

The firemen script is perfect in my opinion, but it just doesn't in the server.. since the reset, everyone is looking more for some cash then roleplay and the script is mostly based on earning money, thats why people rush towards the mission and try to extinguish fires as much as they can before other firemen arrive which is sad.
just give 500$ or 1k for every fireman joining the mission and it will be fine

Guys you are missing a big point here. No this topic is not for moaning. This topic is to create something better. I don't like this script for one single reason. It lets it to the firemen to decide how to act, and this is wrong. Yes the firemen can make this script work well. Infact every fucked up script out there can work almost perfectly if the players want.

The thing is that I see one thing in this script for which many others were denied. It is very easily abused. I mean seriously, every single individual can fuck it up in his own way. That's why we need a new one, and not because it has no Teamwork and so on, the RS4 script didn't have teamwork either, wanna know why? Because I alone could finish almost any mission out there. It just needed skill for an individual to finish a whole mission alone, while this one needs fairly less skill.

Anyway, I will probably today start a new idea topic about a new system. Hopefully the community itself will manage to make a better system than the one we got. Gandalf is wise and has good ideas, but this one was probably not the one he should come up with.

Called fire service today cause I was stuck on the top of a big sign. 10 firemen on duty. None responded

Like it or not most firemen including me join the duty mainly for the income. Now if the system could asure them that they can also do other things between the missions, it was morelikely that one of them would proceed to your call and hurry in order to get his part in the upcomming mission.

Yes that would solve it.

I was active as a fireman until the properties came back (as I had to focus on ARISE, and eventually, admin duties). We did this just about every mission, and it unexpectedly became one of the things that inspired me to go on duty.

Script duties and income will always be inseparable, unless you move money and the necessity to use it.

What the current system needs right now, aside from something else for firemen to do, are additional safeguards.

Yes, but what about the script.
It favors the most greedy and the most fast one to reach there. If HQ can't encourage role play in FD script, we get accustomed to only money factor.

They all supported the idea's. Like, waiting for each other before starting to spray etc.
But then the other firemen came online and it was a hell again
