About the drug system.. Heroin? No-one buys it, weed? It used to be 75pg at RS4 now? 45 per gram.

I guess you have short memory.
In RS4, the weed used to have a very low price (less than 20pg) then it was raised by players.

I guess people don't understand that drug market in RS5 is only there to be used when you have huge quantity and don't know what to do with it anymore.
It remplaces Managers buying it.

The current drug system worked and continue working, but have few defects. First, the price of heroin. Second the roll of the prices.

The price of heroin is ridiculous and the mistake from script is that: They gave permissions to all criminal groups (active, inactive which in system are numerous). So each criminal group have their prices but only recognized groups have permission to sell to market. The logic of giving prices in market to groups which cannot use market is wrong, so their solution was to favorize the recognized groups with higher prices and rolling between only recognized groups(or official groups in that time).

Example: Corleone - Weed 38$/gram, Jefferson Crips - Weed 49$/gram.

Why should "JC" has the price 49$/gram without access on market (!?)

However this is the past but the new scripts will take time to be written. During this time may this current drug script be fixed and give high prices only to recognized groups and roll prices only for recognized groups which can sell in market. We are being forced to prepare cash in non criminal way lately.

From my personal experience; we collected the whole weed of the server and each weekend we were selling minimum 10 kg. When we had low price in market, we bought lower from customers, when we had higher we used to buy higher from customers.

It remplaces Managers buying it.

Yes it does, you are right with this statement

I invite you to check my logs in relation with "Drug Market" before you make such of statements that: "people don't understand that drug market in RS 5 is only there to be used when you have huge quantity". The drug market was working perfectly but what Johan told that the rolling of the prices wasn't fair. However few weeks before losing our status(which means our access on drug market) we had pretty good prices but ...

Prices are random.

[Johan_S]

Prices are random.

Yes, are random, im not saying that prices are focused for any special group, my point is: Why should groups that cannot sell in market have the privilege of having prices when they cannot make use of it. They cannot simply use the cmd /selltomarket while they have prices higher then groups that can sell...

but ...

Prices are random.

Some groups seem to have much more random prices than others. AoD never had a price better than $32, months and months passed. We were told to fuck off when we tried to deal, because other groups always had around 40-50$ at times. So I'd suggest a second look at the script.

But let me keep it on topic. I hope this actually works out, as many attempts such as this one have happened in the past. So far I've only seen veterans and group leaders praise the new approach to things, which I can only support...Yet again, what happens with the new players? How can we make -them- roleplay, when they freeroam all day? How can we find a way to sponsor group leaders/corporation CEOs etc. to pay for Roleplay tasks, without having to truck 24/7 for weeks in order to run their business?

And the thing about the names...It really isn't necessary to force the Firstname_Lastname thing. Perhaps having a -decent- name, yeah. But forcing this will sooner or later lead to forcing of realistic only names, which leads to forbidding celebrity names etc. Which takes away from the Freedom of Roleplay that Argonath has.

Increase the Roleplay among players, but do not -limit- it. That's the charm of Argoanth, and that's what kept me from moving to srs-RP servers through the years. You can be whoever you want, whenever you want - just RP it.

PS:

PS: You can change and make unique gang's names over years and roleplay in front of a bar and Soprano can take a name from a TV show and make massive roleplays. If they attract far more players (keeping the player count) and teach them new stuff then their contribution is far more than yours.

You ignorant people should take to time to re-read Acika's post, because it doesn't say what you think it says.

Practice what you preach.

[Antonio.]

Practice what you preach.

He's implying that you can either make a unique faction or copy it from somewhere else, and in this case he used Sopranos as an example. He stated that if Sopranos are contributing more rather than this "unique group" then it's the better group and that the uniqueness really doesn't matter.

You guys should read before you go directly flaming and provoking for no reason.

I heard some rummors that there are people who buy weed on 51/g, but market never reached more than 44/g(maybe a bit more). Can someone clear me?




Anyway, the "uniqe" thing, doesnt matter.'

Last time I checked the market, it was on $48/g

Fuck off to the unban section where you belong.

Hello Handsome ! Long time no see

The way this topic went retarded.
