Increase the reward from robbing high end establishments.
« on: February 22, 2013, 01:56:15 am »
Originally I typed out a fair few paragraphs in support of my case, but when I hit the post button, I was informed that I "do not have permission to post on this forum" Which is a bit of a pisstake considering I had spent 25 minutes typing out a coherent argument. So this time the suggestion is just going to be short. Ok, gripe over!

Robbing high end places such as banks and casinos (Caliguals especially) should result in a higher pay off than it currently does.

I robbed Eggland's bank earlier only to be met with the measly reward of 27K. This surely should not be the case when robbing from a bank? Especially one that requires you to invest in C4 first (which costs 25k per piece).

The same has been true with robbing Caliguals. Low end pay offs even though it costs you 50k for a decrypter to even be able to rob from it.

I don't think it's right that people grind their way up to maximum rob/terrorist skill only to realize that robbing from 4dragons over-and-over yields a higher pay off than most banks and other establishments do.

Please increase the payoffs for robbing banks and higher tier casinos/establishments.

I see your grivence indeed. The amount is random as you know, but the maximum you can rob can certainly be increased. I'm not going to add a function so that you will always get a high amount, I think that takes away from the fun a bit, but I'll certainly increase the pay off. Perhaps decrease the pay off for other places? What does everyone think? Hired?

Yeah, that's reasonable! It's just it can be a little rattling when you invest all the resources needed into acquiring the equipment for the robbery (Ski-Mask,C4,Decrypter) and then the payoff is less than or equal to the amount you spent getting all the equipment in the first place.

Stuff in-game can get pretty expensive, it's nice to be able to work your way up the rob skill ladder and be able to plan a big heist in order to receive a decent payoff (and wanted level xd). I feel it's something that can add to the game-play too. In the sense that you can form a little group to go and rob the banks and high up casinos. As you will be getting a substantial amount you can distribute the money amongst your teammates!

Totally agreed, that was what originally stood out to me about SA-MP as a whole, the concept of working with a team for a common goal whether it be a robbery etc and sharing the rewards.

I think we need a new heist. One that requires a team. I feel you may just be the man to help me brainstorm on that one.

Forgery skill: A new skill that's more of a never-ending life-mission, with 'skill level', 'respect', and a criminal record for everyone.

 * Art Museum
 * Black Market

 - Random missions at random times. Do own forgery works when not on missions as time-pass, put them up at the black market.
.... fuck, I'm all out.

I can't find ways to put this.. but I'll try: White Collar (Series).
Give players a life to live, which they can continue when spawned in this new skill.

I'll make a full suggestion when I can get on a computer.. I simply cba doing this right now lol-, guys, help me build this suggestion! :|

EGC's GTA:SA:MP W(hite) C(ollar) R(ole)P(lay) C(ops)'n'R(obbers) maybe? But this fits so good into ECNR.


P.S: Enigma dragged us off-topic, but this is good.

Busting into the police station to steal drugs and guns. Much like the inro to bad boys. Or even a group terrorist activity like blowing up the golden gate bridge in San Fierro?

I agree with this, for example last night we were on a mission to rob Caligulas, Hired died and I had less than half a bar of hp left, blew the door and robbed 5k.. then killed by cops lol
