The Great Reset

[Mike]

The Great Reset

INTRODUCTION
For a pretty long time we've been planning to perform a player reset. You may have heard rumours of this. The time has finally come.
All players will have most of their account data reset, as if they just joined the server as a new player.

This is something that happens often on other servers, but has never happened on MCNR.
We're calling this The Great Reset, after which we'll be on MCNR version 2.0.

We're doing this for three main reasons:
- To rebalance the economy (property/vehicle prices are simply too low)
- To give players more reason to play (it gets boring when you have achieved everything and have nothing to try for)
- Semi-necessary for script backend changes

Players' initial reaction to this may be negative, but we feel in the long-run it will benefit the server and its players.

The reset will happen this Saturday 20/01/2024.
It's important to note that your account is NOT being deleted, just reset. You'll still join and login as normal.

RIOT MODE
To 'celebrate' the reset, we're going to host 'Riot Mode' for a few days prior to the reset. This starts now!
During this period, there will be no rules in place in regards to who you can attack/kill. Everyone for themselves!
All other rules will apply as usual.

We hope everyone understands why we're doing this and appreciate the potential long-term benefits. See you in-game!


The following things will be reset for all players:
- All cash will be removed, and all players will have $10,000 in their wallet
- Player score/level and job xp/ranks
- Properties
- Owned vehicles
- Inventory & clothing
- Weapons & ammo (including from properties, and confiscated weapons/ammo)
- Stats and achievements
- Daily objectives progress/streak
- Daily login bonus streak
- Weed plants
- Skins and jobs (everyone's skin will be reset to a generic one)
- Accrued payday points
- Jail/ticket status & wanted levels
- Bounties
- Collectables (area exploration, oysters etc.)
- Vehicle export lists
- Player skills, including weapon skills and muscle strength
- Fighting styles
- Health & armour (everyone reset to 100 health and 0 armour)
- Green goo status (must be level 50 to replay)
- Daily gambling allowance
- Kickstart Stadium personal best
- Discord Nitro booster period (if you are a Discord Nitro booster, you'll get your rewards again at midnight)

The following leaderboards will be reset:
- Time trial
- Decathlon
- Kickstart stadium

The following will NOT be reset:
- Account information (passwords, security questions, linked Discord account etc.)
- Settings
- Name change requests/history/limits
- Bans/infractions/PSOs
- Donation status (rewards will be re-given after the reset)
- Friend lists

PRICE INCREASES
In order to improve the 'economy' of MCNR and address the issue of players accumulating tens of millions of dollars with nothing to spend it on, prices have been increased, including:
   - Property prices doubled
   - Vehicle prices increased drastically

SKIN RESET - FIRST SKIN CHANGE FOR FREE
- Due to the fact that everyone's score/level has been reset, all skins have been reset to a basic one.
- Everyone will get one free skin change upon the reset. Visit any clothes shop (/gps clothes) to change skin.
- Donators can use /skin to change skin from anywhere.

EXISTING DONATION REWARDS
Donators will be given back their cash bonus ($10,000 for every 1 GBP donated) and vehicle credits (one for every 5 GBP donated).

DOUBLE DONATIONS
For a limited time, each 1 GBP donated will get you $20,000 in-game cash instead of the usual $10,000.
This rare event will last for 10 days. It will start 3 days before the reset and finish one week after.
NOTE: Cash and vehicle credits gained before the reset will be re-given after the reset, so you lose nothing!

DOUBLE CASH/SCORE EVENT
For the first week after the reset, double cash will be awarded for:
- Cash earned from jobs (including payday)
- Cash from side-jobs, missions, challenges etc.
- Cash stolen from banks, stores, Securicar etc.
- Cash won from betting, including scratchcards and lotto
- Cash for scrapping/exporting vehicles (excluding personal vehicles)
- Cash for daily objectives, achievements, and daily login bonus

You'll also get double score/xp for everything.

RIOT MODE
To 'celebrate' the reset, we're going to host 'Riot Mode' for a few days prior to the reset. This starts now!
During this period, there will be no rules in place in regards to who you can attack/kill. Everyone for themselves!
All other rules will apply as usual.

We're also disabling the daily gambling limit during this time.

SCHEDULE
- The Great Reset will happen this coming Saturday (20/01/2024) - at no specific defined time, but it will be announced a few hours before it happens.
- Riot Mode lasts from now until the reset.
- Double cash/score/xp/donations will start once the reset happens and last 7 days (til 27/01/2024).

HELP AND FEEDBACK
Any questions? Please feel free to ask. We may update this with more information in the future.
For any major changes we'll mention everyone again.

Please note all of this is subject to change. If all goes to plan, the reset will happen on Saturday, but this is not a guarantee if for any reason it isn't achieveable.

TIPS FOR STARTING OVER
We understand that the thought of starting from scratch may seem daunting, but there are many easy/quick ways to earn cash and score on MCNR:
- Earn score and level up, as you'll get cash bonuses for levelling up, and unlock better weapons/vehicles/features.
- Level up your job rank, as you'll get a higher payday payment.
- Complete daily objectives for consecutive days in a row for large cash rewards. See /obj in-game.
- Complete achievements for cash and score rewards. A lot of basic achievements are obtainable again which only take a few minutes!
- Find collectables (gang tags, oysters etc.) as there are 280 to find! You can earn hundreds of thousands from this.
- Do special events such as the Mafia Money Bag event, the Securicar event, Special Cargo Trucking, and Treasure Hunt.
- Play daily for at least 30 minutes to earn the Daily Login Bonus (see /dlb in-game).
- Remember to play lotto often to be in with more chance of winning!
- Complete the 'green goo' event after level 50 for a large cash prize.
  - If you don't know what this is, that sucks for you!
- A double cash/score/xp event will run for 2 weeks following the reset, so get some play time in during that period to take advantage of the bonus!
- Staff will organise events after the reset which will have cash prizes up for grabs.
- Refer players to the server and you both get bonus cash - see mikescnr.com/refer.
- Donate for an extra $10,000 in-game cash per 1GBP donated. See mikescnr.com/donate for more info.
  - During the week before and after the reset, you'll get double the cash, and you'll keep it through any resets!

We hope everyone understands why we're doing this and appreciate the potential long-term benefits. See you in-game!

[Rickey]

Will there be a mass unban? For players banned from last year? To re-experience the server?

[Mido]

Why don't you take your time and read the topic.

The following will NOT be reset:
- Bans/infractions/PSOs

[Onizuka]

Mscnr (before reset) 56/100 players Mscnr (after reset) 5/100 players  it's Time to say goodbye to Mscnr

[parisisnthuman]

why are clothing items getting reset lol seasonal ones are a pain to get back

[rogue.]

Think about the clothes part,they cannot be sold and seasonal’s one are like once a year to be found,don’t reset those or at least the seasonal ones.

[franklyn]

Time to leave mcnr WTF
@Mike don't reset money and vehicles plz
Consider this plz or you might lose max player base.
Not acceptable in any way full reset man.
Reset everything except cash veh. Rest everything is OK

[MCNRLOVER42]

😕😕😕😕Don't reset or u will lose a huge amount of player 😟😟😟😟
Some players grind too hard and if they got reset they will stop playing only kids will play who join new you will lose a huge amount of fanbase 😔😔😔

[ShadowWalker]

Even though I just recently gotten 10k :'( lol..  for score I think this would be a great thing to avoid boredom and most of all remember how its like to earn good achievements for each of us! I think it also shows that nothing is always guaranteed as well but to enjoy things while its still here.   

[Ardealul]

@Mike imagine selling donator for real cash and getting all that money taken from you. This great reset is fucking bullshit, you will distroy the server. At start people will play a little more because they want to grind and after 2-3 days they will totally quit. Remove this or post-pone it. Also there is a player who spend like 100$ to buy ingame cash and you gonna reset his money now lol. Don't reset money. Also, "double the price for houses, veh price increase" how is this balancing the economy? This is the biggest bullshit you've done. Also, if you reset my cash, I want to get refunded for all the donators I sold to other people since I wont get to enjoy the cash for it even tho I paid real cash.

[puuro]

make legacy stats atleast

and dont remove event clothing

[Ralsei]

First good thing Mike has done for this server in many years. Anyways just reset the bans cause there's no point in evading If retards will evade and mass unban will happen (They will go back to 0$ assuming their main gets unbanned)

[Devils]

why are clothing items getting reset lol seasonal ones are a pain to get back

[Karbz]

Everything that will be wiped can easily be earned back again, yeah it might take a bit of time but nonetheless it is possible to earn things such as seasonal clothing back again. The wipe is occurring at the perfect time, with Easter just around the corner seasonal clothing will be available during the event. Let us not forget staff do have the ability to give out seasonal clothing as prizes for events (however this will be a rare occurrence).

Make the most of the pre-reset and post-reset events that will be hosted / occurring to capitalise on the bonuses. I will ensure staff are on the ball when it comes to events, but I think you will all be thankful for the reset eventually. No more having players walking around with tens of millions wreaking havoc on the server by suddenly having novices walking around with more money than the San Andreas bank department.

This reset in theory should have happened over a year ago - it also gives the opportunity for better and bigger updates due to backend infrastructure being more supportive. I see many more updates as the year carries on.

[ranja]

ayo SmixY_ can I have a couple o' mill, big dawg?

[Vicio]

Everything good, Just keep the saved outfits please (is hard to make clothes fits in a skin)
Maybe make players able to use the outfits if they have the previous clothes buyed.

[BeyondBirthday]

Do not remove the clothing / outfits please.

[rogue.]

Everything that will be wiped can easily be earned back again, yeah it might take a bit of time but nonetheless it is possible to earn things such as seasonal clothing back again.

Yeah,1 fucking year to get christmas hat

[Mike]

Yeah,1 fucking year to get christmas hat

What, do you want to wear a Christmas hat in July?

[Ast]

ayo SmixY_ can I have a couple o' mill, big dawg?

[anty.]

lmao i suggested this idea yesterday

1. It's unfair to reset everything. so many players have spent time gathering money and now they're enjoying their retirement. They can be red and continuously go to jail, because there's enough money.
2. We don't have the time and patience to sit on the chair and gather money in MCNR again so that we can enjoy.
3.You can do other things to balance the economy:

a. Limit the gambling to a little amount, which only has caused inflation.
b. Announce to players that every car and house ownership will be taken from them, so that everyone will turn their ownings to cash.
c. Then tax everyone on 50% of their cash ownings.
d. Then establish a better economy system in which there's no inflation and unfair ownership.

@Mike dont reset the score

[[TTC]Calzone]

Dear Mike and team,

please reconsider your decision. I understand your ambition to make the game more balanced. But I think a decision like this is just too radical. By reading the replies, you should now have a quite well picture of people reacting to this. I think many players will leave. Such a drastical decision by resetting all achievements that we all have worked so hard for feels like a BETRAY. You should at least consider to just reset some attributes, but NOT ALL. You could set everyone's wealth to max 2 million, introduce higher wealth taxes or set the max achievable level to for example lvl 999. Just to name a few ideas.

With that said, I appeal to any player on the server to join tommorow at 19th January 8pm (London Time) and to demonstrate against this RESET. We will all be online can meet up but will not play or do any activity. Just standing there. I think this should be a message everbody understands!

Feel free to share this news on the server!

Best regards!

you didn't write that

[Train4Real]

@Mike please dont remove the money and score

[Karbz]

To everyone that is complaining about the great reset, understandably I get it you've worked hard for your current stats and they'll be wiped before your own eyes. However this opens a great opportunity for you to explore the server again, there are a shit tonne of achievements that have been added, that many people haven't been able to unlock as it required a server reset.

You achieved your current stats by being a no-lifer playing for multiple hours - You can do that again, and if you are unable to do that it means you've grown up and are doing something better with your life nowadays. If you can't be bothered playing again, that's fair enough. Just keep in mind that everyone will be starting on a level playing field - nobody will get any major advancements.

Staff events will be consistently happening on a regular basis to ensure engagement after the reset stays at an all time high - everything will work out, and before you know it you'll forget the reset happened.

[Ralsei]

People against reset are same people who are bored 24/7 and 4v1 new players in sultans. Don't get y'alls bitching

[howl]

I'm merely against it only because I'll have to grind back to lvl 100 with 100% gun skills from square one. lol

Also, the K/D ratio that I halfly respect

[Ahsoka_Tano]

So version 2.0 IS being released with All the planned features or IS this just a reset because your dev Team feels like the server needs one?

[doggo]

I highly advised @Mike not to reset the score and weapon skills

[impossible]

@Mike please do a wipe ban for all players give us a chance to play here are like 40% players banned or more

[dimg0747]

[Its uknown]

 This gonna be one of a man made disaster in samp history. SO you mean, the score i gained, the score i rushed for to reach 200k(another 8k to reach 200k) the hours I've spent on doing fishing to grind score..the cars I've bought and took it to few modshops to find best paintjobs, the aircrafts ive bought, the rank 10 score I've achieved for daysss to just to fly rustler and everything gonna be reset!. Good luck, you found a way to permanently send me out of mcnr for some girls here "its just a game" everyone know how women says about games and it is "it's just a game". Some people here saying do a ban points reset and reset the bans. For them im sure they are currently not living in their own land it's just occupied, that occupying mindset won't go off from your head. Scripting something, making it more valuable, building it everyday and finally bringing a disaster on that script. Ain't gonna spend my hours on regaining everything for new players, good luck welcome to mcnr and spend your life here until you grow up!. This server helped a lot to spend ma free hours, vacation, nights. Thank you for that...once again you have successfully found a way to send one of an active player away form mcnr,its 19th of January 2024 - 09:32 am

@Zack my goal was to reach ur score anyways I've failed on that

Imagine getting cop score which is difficult task to make it.
Weapon skills why reset it as it makes no difference also to score. Just go reset money property and other stuff

[lookgood]

RIP The greatest stat in MCNR EVER!!!!!




Anyway, in other games and servers all they do every year is something called "gold squish" or "stat squish". Which means, just remove half of everything from a player. Removing everything will ruin your server.

Thats it. Good luck!!!!

he's already banned for aimlock donke

[Ast]

he's already banned for aimlock donke

Literally never thought that he'd been banned for that reason or (.)

[Vet JBONGS]

This is how an amazing server goes down and the owner wonders what went wrong. How can one think of such? It will will take forever to accumulate the cash n assets i had, not mentioning the "balanced" generated income.

Wtf is meant with "doubled price on property and vehicle"? Now I'll have to pay 500k for a 3 room house with 1 garage not mentioning a rare mansion.

I really hope the rules are changed as issh is 'bout to get real in-game(random killings occuring for cash).
