Howdy, I’ll put my 10 cents in on the matter. As someone who plays both Cop and Civ. I’m all for the return of class 3s and option 3 - cheap access to class 3s. Firstly, I don’t really think the increase in price of guns is actually a good thing for the server or for server pop. - I guarantee people (cops and civs) are just going to get Zerg robbed by other civs for even carrying class 3s since at 15-25k a pop they are worth even more than someone’s Fort Knox or major crime cut. - People would be even more upset when losing a class 3 fight if they feel that it didn’t go fairly if they are losing 25k or even 10k when they die during a gunfight. This will fuel toxicity and just poor engagement with players after a situation is concluded. One of the chill things about class 1s is that it’s low risk low reward meaning that people are actually chill to talk to regardless of whether you win or lose a situation. This is something I want to see continue. - Expensive class 3s will also encourage roach gameplay because civs will be incredibly worried about losing a kit to a situation, and everyone hates that and OP holds. - A lack of class 3s will cause a continuation of long drawn out and stale combat that a lot of people are sick of at the moment - not everyone but based off discussion earlier this week. - I’m getting dejavu of what I’ve heard from 4.0 in that we’d be repeating previous mistakes which ultimately decimated server pop. As gang zones will become worthless, cartel won’t be played nor will cap zones as they risk someone losing a great deal of cash over the chance that someone is just roaching inside a red zone. People just won’t be bothered to take the risk. - people will grow to despise having only access to smgs and pistols in their shops and won’t see the point of even playing. Aside from gameplay, another issue I have with entirely relying on crafters is the wait time. I have no issue whatsoever buying from crafters, in fact, I often bought crafted guns but the wait on such an order would either take a week or two or just never come to Fruiting - as crafting enough guns to give an individual player a stable resource of equipment takes time and won’t be available for everyone on the server. I like crafting when you have to build a relation with a crafter or weapons dealer, giving you access to higher tier weapons - but this is where I think the market control over class 3s should not go beyond buying SOST guns or those 7.62+ rifles people are very keen to get their hands on. everyone should have a fair and equal access to regular 5.56 class 3s, 2s and 1s and it shouldn’t come at an expensive premium whether you’re a cop or a civ. As an AU player and much like our other AU brethren, we do not have the Timezone for us to access a lot of NA crafters as well or to be on at the same time - it’ll ultimately depend on who you know in order for you just to be able to buy a base kit and I doubt players are going to want to deal with that in my Timezone. Being AU one of the worst things ever is getting on to play on any NA/EU server and seeing 20 people on the server at 5pm in the evening. One of the great things is our server pop, and I hope that we can install class 3s fairly and at an affordable price so that people can continue to play and have fun on cop and on civ. Again, I’m all for option 3 - cheap class 3s - and I don’t want to see server pop die. We have something great here - a great map (I recon the best one we’ve ever had) and great mechanics to back it up.
