Crew System

After the MW rule was changed the crews basically lost their core meaning. However I believe it was a change for the good, when it comes to improving the experience for new players. But what if 1.15 includes some type of early version of the crew system, which includes an in-game crew menu for official crews.

The Menu

- Manage Members - For owners to add or remove members
- Crew Relations - For owners to request for peace or declare war on another official crew; for crew members to see the current relations with other crews.
- Participate in crew activities - Players can use this option to basically go on-duty as a crew member. Turning this option on would add the crew tag to your name and allow the enemies of that crew to kill you for money bonus and crew points, but only when you are wanted (2+stars). You can only use this option as a civilian. In the future that option could be improved to make it automatically switch to the crew skin, clothing, vehicle colors etc.
- Crew Status - displays information about your crew - the name of the crew, total members, active members; crew points and ranking; kills; deaths;

Commands

/crews - Displays the list of the official crews and rankings
/mycrew - Opens up the crew menu
/cc, /crewchat - A chatroom for active crew members

Crew Points

Crew points can only be earned when you're actively participating in a crew activity (wearing the tag).

+3 points for killing an enemy crew member
+1 points for robbing an enemy crew member
-2 points for getting killed by an enemy crew member

Also the points would then open up different opportunities for the crew members.
For example - Each city will have its own spot for only the official crew members to buy cheaper weapons. The size of the discount would depend on the ranking of your crew.

There is much more that I would love to add here, but I would rather have some type of early version of the crew system released with the next update and have it updated and improved over time. Right now it feels like crews have been abandoned and I am sure that would bring it all back to life.

Open to your opinions and suggestions

half life 3 is coming out before crew system is

WuTang will be disbanded before the new crew system comes out.

+1,since it would bring back crew wars and probably players who left due to stoppage of DMing would come back in-game which will lead to a more active server,plus players who enjoy doing missions or other things rather than DM would still play in peace.

Wu-Tang will have been disbanded atleast 5 times before the new crew system ever comes out*

Crew system is as real as me playing by the rules for period longer than 2 days

+1 another dream

+1 totally agree on this, this will bring more criminals into the server so cops will have more work, i noticed a lack of crimes these days.

I just hope this doesn't get rejected for "this is not a DM server".

+1

That's why there should be an option to choose between participating and not participating in crew activities.  I think it quite fairly balances out everything in between players who want to enjoy a bit more DM and players who are either new or just want to enjoy the peaceful side of the server.

I also believe it would be a great fundament for the long-awaited system.

Right, as per knowing the fact that all your description just defines for crews taking scores for each other, and it barely impacts the other players as well as having cops involved within this action.

So, I would love to see that happen actually.

The idea to participate in crew activities is really great and like you said it pretty much balances things up for the players who want peaceful gameplay or for the players who love dming.
+1 for me, I just hope this gets accepted I've been waiting for almost 3 years for crew features to be added.

+1 for this god tier suggestion. Additional suggestion: The crew ranking system should be reset every month so that new crews are not left behind. I hope that Mike doesn't reject this one.

Big +1 from me this suggestion will revive the crews and criminals on game and im pretty sure this will be fun.
