Lumberjack / Trucking Payout (Balance)

Locked

Just a quick pay increase suggestion. (sorry mike, i know you don't like more than 1 suggestion per topic, but they're very similar and i don't want to farm posts)

On average, a Trucking Mission takes 2.5-4 minutes to complete.
The pay on average is roughly $1000. This seems a tad bit low, should be increased a bit to become on-par with some other missions.

Same goes with Lumberjack, cutting down 2 tree's takes 3.5-5.5 mins, depending on RNG, you might get close trees or far trees.
Even so, they pay is a bit too low, about $600 per tree. Should be increased a bit to become on-par with some other missions.


Rant time:

FYI. I will always refer to bank heists for the best money per min ratio on the server, even though it might seem like a "high risk high reward" decision to rob the bank, it really isn't, people go as a group of 6+ at each bank and cops can't do much about it, there is a 98% success rate when robbing the bank & getting to the hideout. Only morons who can't drive fail a bank heist.
~4 mins per bank rob = $7000-17000 cash, avg. $12,000/4m.
You can average 2-3 bank robs per day, meaning in 18 minutes of server time, you can make anywhere between $14,000 - $51,000 of free money (heists aren't hard).
So, IMO, ALL missions need to give more money, at least to be a little closer in line with money per min earned from doing bank heists.
(this includes all legal lines of work eg. Cop, Medic, FF, Mechanic, Taxi)
Agree with you about trucking mission and it's sometimes be 500$
Or just nerf the bank robbery back down to earth. I have no idea why Mike decided to increase it when it already paid so much more than other jobs

Agree. I thought with the low rewards people were getting due to being next to no cops would change their mind to other types of money making strategies... But now everithing is back as usual.
