Sounds cool on paper, but it won't work. Server rules will differ from your crew rules, which will only make problems. This has happened regularly in the past, which is the main reason why all the crews you were once apart of suddenly disappeared.
Having that RPish elements simply doesn't work on a CnR server.
Example..2 crews are fighting for a territory, every cop that happens to be in one of those two crews cannot be there, meaning he can't do his job properly(which is already a huge issue, since you're killing the whole point of this server). Server rules prevent him from assisting criminals (as in attacking/arresting rival crew members while pretending his crewmates aren't there) and your crew rules will state that you can't attack your crew members and/or are supposed to help them. So you, as a cop, can't do what you're supposed to do, on a CnR server.
If you want a ranking system, to prove who's better or whatever..just make an arena somewhere outside the main city and let them slaughter each other there for points. I don't see how that's fun but if they really want it, i don't see why not. Having a little competition can't hurt.
Having clan tags, unique colors, group chats and everything else Mike mentioned in the topic you linked is completely fine. However your gangwar ideas and whatnot simply won't do any good. Even if you do somehow fix the cops issue i mentioned at the start (maybe by disallowing gang members to switch into cops), you still can't ignore the fact that other cops that don't associate with any gangs can't really stop 10, 20, 30 people fighting on the streets. It would completely ruin the server. I mean..you already know how hard it is to arrest 3-4 players in bank..you can only imagine how it would be with actual gangs (which for whatever reason tend to include 40% of the entire community..leaders are utterly stupid)
As for requests to join a gang..i mean, you already have those on the forums. Is it really necessary to have it ingame as well? I'd rather see some new robbery locations, but that's just me..
No one ever said that gangwars have to happen within the active city because that's totally irrelevant and as you said by yourself, if the system gets implemented gang wars will happen outside of the current city which doesn't affect the normal gameplay of any cops.You are overexaggerating by saying "they cant do what they are supposed to do in a cnr server".Like even if gangwars were to happen within the active city, why would regular cops even drive towards a gang war?whats the point?They are heavily outnumbered and they know damn well they will die if they attempt to interrupt it unless they outnumber the gangwar participants.
By the way, gangwars are already a thing but they are just un-official.With the current system you have to let an admin know about it and they will approve it as long as it happens outside the active city.The system Mike will implement makes it even more fun and immersive for people who like gangwars and on foot combat.
Some people want action to make the game exciting you can't possibly expect people to act all peaceful in a game that's intended to have violence in it.You like the boring aspect of the game which just resolves around doing the same thing over and over and I respect it however,don't expect everyone to be like you.
Example..2 crews are fighting for a territory, every cop that happens to be in one of those two crews cannot be there, meaning he can't do his job properly(which is already a huge issue, since you're killing the whole point of this server). Server rules prevent him from assisting criminals (as in attacking/arresting rival crew members while pretending his crewmates aren't there) and your crew rules will state that you can't attack your crew members and/or are supposed to help them. So you, as a cop, can't do what you're supposed to do, on a CnR server.
See?Because you have never been in a crew you are pointing out really irrelevant arguments.Generally speaking, crews have their own rules but they never go above server rules, if your crewmate is a warrant you have to attack them regardless.I can assure you absolutely no crew will kick you or blacklist you for chasing a member of your clan while being a cop. We all respect this rule, on 59 at least, I have seen other crews go after their own crew members as well(they tend not to but I have seen plenty of these situations) though.
Anyway if a gangwar is happening and a cop crewmate happens to be there?Like the first logical question I would ask them is why the fuck are you here if you are a cop?No one goes to a gangwar as a cop just to watch his teammates die/kill other players because its totally stupid and illogical.He's there to arrest and "play the game"?Go back to the active city and play cat and mouse with other warrants.The servers playerbase isn't based off a group who decides to have some fun outside the city.By that logic why don't we also make it so you can arrest people while participating in an event?Because it ruins the event.If you wish to play the game normally, you can just choose not to participate on that event.You aren't confined to 1 area on the entire map.It's no fucking rocket science.
Lets pretend this is an issue just to give you a point on your pointless argument.Mike could simply make it so if you want to participate in the gang war you must go off-duty, similar to how events work.If you, as a cop arrive late to the fight and specifically go after enemy crew members to arrest them, know that admins are there and will take actions accordingly.
you still can't ignore the fact that other cops that don't associate with any gangs can't really stop 10, 20, 30 people fighting on the streets. It would completely ruin the server.
Going back to my first paragraph.Why would anyone with a healthy logic walk into a chaotic massacre knowing damn well they will die if they attempt to stop 2 clans clashing with each other?You must have a group huge enough to outnumber the clans that are currently fighting each other.If this is that big of a problem as you say, the clan wars can be scheduled to happen at a specific time so everyone knows about it ahead of the time.For example only once in a game week in order not to "ruin it" for other players.
Besides why would clans attack cops that have nothing to do with the fight?If their intention is just to say, sit back and spectate I can assure you nothing will happen to them.Clans will be so busy fighting each other that they won't even care.Like even if they go after a cop who happens to be there admins, again, are going to take action on that.
What you speak of is total nonsense and from what I'm understanding, you are comparing this server to that chaotic pile of shit crazybob still runs for whatever reason which is where you are wrong.The staff here is fair, not one sided and the owner of this server actively updates the script and listens to the community but most importantly this server isn't ran by cheaters or rule breakers so please quit making comparisons because these 2 servers have absolutely nothing in common.
