In the end of they day these are tools; expensive tools that aren't just thrown about in every scenario, in the system people will need to be more careful with their class 3 and will need to make decisions based on risk/reward with that gun. So I feel we will not see a whole load of full auto shoot outs all the time but more so thought out plans and crimes; this will make it so that class 3s are not a common casual thing but more so an "oh shit they have class 3s" kind of situation.

I am also not saying that combat players are against RP... ...personally from what I have seen though... combat players scrolling through disliking any proposition that is not option 3 without even proposing a counter. I digress though. The suggestion I have presented does not kill combat; as I said class 2s should be available meaning you can do Cap Zones with other weapons. I am simply saying that you do NOT need class 3s to do cap zones etc... and that making class 3s more valuable and harder access means people will be using them more sparingly... If everyone doesn't want to lose their class 3s at cap zones than most people will use class 2s... I am all for a good mix of combat; but clearly we can't just have 5.5 or 3.0 of super easy to get class 3s where pretty much everyone has one and their is minimal consequence to use or lose one. "strategic maneuvers= camping/roaching/making everything longer for no reason at all" Your exactly right that's what it is; that more realistic and still requires skill and tact. yea it's not KOH fast paced but it still works... I have personally had very exciting shootouts that take time and are more drawn out. ArmA itself is built for this kind of combat. In this case it also wouldn't be "for no reason at all" it'd make sense as people wouldn't want to be killed.

This also creates a huge imbalance with civs vs cops, are cops going to have to carry a class 2 and 3 on them for situations / cops guns will be cheaper than civs allowing them to push civs with no gear fear.

I agree that this could be an issue; but remember that cops use C3s against C2s anyhow. Perhaps even have most cops carry class 2s and only swat has class 3s? This would also add to the "oh shit factor" of class 3s where a regular cop would need to phone in spec ops if there was a gang loaded with C3s. Which would be realistic as well...

I think the idea of only SWAT getting access to class 3s for a while is interesting to say the least but I feel like if civs get regular class 3s and the majority of cops do not they will complain about the imbalance. I also think the idea of a crafter/player driven gun market but it will only ever work with an auction house and or some way to communicate outside of twitter (a dark web of sorts) I am for the crafter market 100% thats what I ahve been saying from the start Che Guevara: CREED Owner , DBRT Command , BADR Commandant-(Chief Of Staff) Jammal Murray: CG Deck Petty Officer, FTO, Personnel , MAA Senior Trooper , DSA PSA.

Charlie Olatunji Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Coming from a pro combat player here you should add class 2s for a few days see how it goes and then add class 3s in rebel for 15-20k and gradually lower the price, also if you do want a crafter run class 3 market I do believe a auction house should be added but the crafter doesn't have to put the guns on the auction house they can ofc just try sell them face to face Edited January 19, 2023 by Charlie Olatunji Adding stuff Link to comment

Jack Barrow 1 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Option 1 sounds good, but to be fair, it would be good to get this in place asap. I've not really enjoyed the server much the last few days as it's been really quiet for police at the times I've been on. Would be good to start off by returning more basic class 3's with limited sights for both civs & the majority of police. At least we should enable for majors as it looks to be very cop sided.

Borja Sanchez Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 What is clear is that we all want rifles now, PVP with a pistol is boring or going to a capture area and going with a small pistol, I think we should think about doing something soon with this, people farm, and farm but for what purpose? 1 2 Link to comment

This has been done before and it flopped badly of which resulted in Anzus player base dropping considerably in 4.0. This feels like a re-run of previous mistakes. 25k for a class 3 is ridiculous you’ll be doing a Knox and a payout will only just cover the class 3 you used if your lucky. Nevermind other majors won’t cover the cost of a class 3. Conflict will completely die off if this becomes a thing so all the hard work you’ve put into conflict will be thrown out the window so if this becomes a thing you might as well remove conflict with it. Not to mention the fact that people grew to hate crafters only for class 3s cause crafters could never keep up with the demand of the players wanting constant class 3s. It just doesn’t work. If crafters are offline and player has no class 3 they don’t want to play because they can’t get a class 3 to use or have to pay a ridiculous amount for a class 3 which won’t happen and will drive players away. Not all people want to have to constantly contact crafters for class 3s. Anzus already has so many massive money sinks, don’t make another one. Majority of people in 4.0 grew to hate SMGs and Pistols only in shops so don’t repeat that again. I’m all for low tier class 3s being in shops for a reasonable price and higher tier being crafting but anything less than that is a big no from me. Overall I feel Option 3 is the best one for Anzus as a whole and the longevity of Anzus alongside keeping the player base happy. Amen Link to comment
Squilliam McGuire Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Something needs to be done soon; already noticing server pop dying at times when usually it would have 125 people on. Any implementation that allows players to use class 3's soon would be best. Yes, the server pop will go back up when this implementation occurs. However, it still should be of concern as people are clearly starting to show disinterest in the current stage the server is in (class 1 PVP, money farming, leveling). Roleplay is an essential aspect of the server, and should receive as much attention and feedback as possible. However, the PVP aspect of the server needs to improve and should be prioritized, regardless of whether you are a pvper or not. I don't care what battlemetrics says; coming from someone who has been on at peak times every day for the past 2-3 weeks, I can clearly see numbers dropping within the past two days NA and EU times. Why is that? Because people are farming, over and over and over again. All majors are barely being popped, and even then, when they do, I hear people complaining about pistol movement and how it takes 5-6 bullets to kill someone.

Lets say each faction including urs have 30 class 3's, all gear up with 1 class 3 each. Thats maybe 5-7 class'3s devided by the people on at the time. U all decide to do a major and u loose that major. that means u have 23 class 3's left and then u all gear up again thats 16 class 3's left. My point is that if u dont win the situation ur gun is gone and those guns run out quick. There is no way u can fund ur whole gang/faction and sell ur guns to other people. Yes there is a lot of guns now but people get tired of crating. Some people want to have fun not just craft Edited January 20, 2023 by Dimitri Sokavski . 1 Link to comment

I think we should remove the PD Gun signs and require PD to purchase guns from KD Arms or another crafter too, or purchase them at full price like the rest of the server. Thoughts? I suppose I'll clarify, this is not a direct response to the quote, but all of your responses throughout this thread.
