Suggestion for the Phone / Business WebApps

​Hey everyone, ​I wanted to throw an idea out there regarding how businesses are handled on the phone. Right now, the "RP to find out" meta is cool for a lot of things, but I think it’s actually holding back some of the newer players when it comes to the economy. ​I’d love to see a section on the mobile webapp where player-owned businesses can post their menus or service prices. ​Why I think we need this: Walking into a shop or a mechanic totally blind is actually pretty stressful for someone new to the city. If you’ve only got a few hundred bucks and you walk into a place where the cheapest thing is $1k, it’s awkward and usually just results in people walking right back out. ​If we had basic websites for shops (like restaurants, mechanics, etc.) where you could check prices or see what’s in stock, it would: ​Help people actually budget their money. ​Give people a reason to head to specific spots because they "saw a deal online." ​Make the city feel way more modern and lived-in. ​In real life, we check our phones for everything before we leave the house. Having that info on the in-game phone would actually help start more scenes rather than killing them, because people would show up knowing exactly what they’re looking for. ​Just a thought to help bridge the gap for new citizens and get more traffic to the player-run shops! P.S. Sorry if the formatting is a bit specific; I used an AI tool to help clean up my notes since I’m dyslexic and wanted to make sure it made sense!

Avatar Height

It would be great if the selected height actually reflected visually. Right now, all avatars appear to be the same height regardless of the height chosen (unless they are wearing high heel shoes), which makes the feature feel a bit ineffective. Having visible differences would make the customization more meaningful and realistic. Thank you for reading this :)

More furniture

Ive been decorating a warehouse and im going to decorate a house aswell. What i found out it that the choice is very limited if you want to keep 1 style. So if you have 2 homes you either have to choose the same style or a style you dont want. Or make it look like you collect furniture. Ive had several occasions where you can add props and furniture into the menu and it would be cool to also decorate our front door or the garden. There is no wall options like a big wall or colors. Same goes for the floor. The rugs are not really doing it. Now im making floors with kitchen counter tops but the whole floor cost me 30k allready made of little counter tops. Also would love to see more green, like palm trees etc. And Better Lighting. like neon tubes. Or RGB lights. I really want to control the vibes in the city by the interiors we can make. If we spend 1 mil on a house in would love to see that i can decorate it better. Fish tanks etc would also be cool.

Cops Ramming

In my opinion, I feel as if cops ram too much- or too hard, in a very unrealistic manner. The only way they should be able to use their car as a battery force over a certain speed, should be if they have pit bars- which are only on certain vehicles. The ramming gives cops a huge advantage because they have the armor on their cars and they just ram ram ram, even without pit bars. Speaking from a personal experience- I’ve been rammed as a stationary vehicle, by a cop going atleast 50 miles per hour and this is EXTREMELY unrealistic. The ramming is simply overdone, watch an actual police chase, cars don’t get rammed over 10 maybe 15mph. Pits are acceptable, with a pit bar.

New player feedback

I have two complaints, one about the support and ticket system and the other about the new player experience. Firstly I purchased the St Patricks Day package because I absolutely love the city (I’m brand new to GTA and RP) and wanted to support you financially. Everything went well with the purchase but the rewards weren’t complete I was missing 5 of each of the items: 15 Enhanced Corned Beef (received 10) 35 Aluminum (received 30) 35 Steel (received 30) I chatted in the support channel as they’ve been very helpful with small things as I’ve been finding my way in the city. They said to open a donation ticket which I did and I heard absolutely nothing in response only to login to discord this morning to find the ticket gone. The normal support channel said that it would likely be last night because people are just getting online etc which makes sense so I just left it until now to find it just gone. Some kind of timescale/”roughly x-y hours from now” so that users know when to expect a response would be very helpful. My second complaint is about the rules/banning system and the new player experience with this. I will preface it by statin that I hadn’t read through the rules fully but was playing with a player that had weatched a fair amount of content on RP and has played GTA a lot so I was following their lead while we found our way in the city. One of the most exciting things happened last night where we saw a green question mark on the map and thought we should check it out. On arrival at the location we heard a beeping and there was absolute chaos happning with gunshots and police fighting some other people. I decided to head towards he red smoke and the beeping while everything was going on and when I got near I got shot. This was by far the most exciting thing that had happened in the city so far in my first foray into GTA and RP. Having never experienced this before or even seen any police activity like this either I was enjoying seeing some action happen despite bleeding out on the floor. Needless to say I was trying to ask the officers if my friend could come and get me to take me to the hospital and eventually I managed to speak to an officer to say I’m new and could they help me get to a hospital because my friend had to leave in his head (a term I heard another player say so I thought it was normal) then less than a minute later I am banned, no warning no explanation apart from some terminology on the ban message, just banned and for 7 days! As a new player this is one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had in over 20 years of online gaming, having never been banned from a game in my life to los access to something I was thoroughly enjoying for 7 days without a warning is just crazy. I fully understand that you want to keep the RP element at the forefront of the city but for a brand new player finding their way with everything and trying to get some help it’s just off putting. I could undertand a warning or even 24 hour for a first ever offence but 7 days just feels so horrible as a new player. I have now read through the rules and fully understand the part I played in being banned but I’m not sure I will be returning to the city after this ridiculously exclusive treatment. How can you expect new players to get into RP for the first time if this is how you treat them? I work in user experience and I’d be happy to provide more thoughts and feedback on the new player experience. 🙂

Staff Responses

First off I would like to say I am more than aware that everyone has a life outside of this server. People can not be available 24/7 365, which is fine. My only concern is that I feel as if most staff members or tickets go days or weeks, possibly even longer without anyone looking at it. I am well aware they have more important things to do concerning the server and all the new things they are focused on at the moment. However, it feels as if the player base gets neglected. I’ve spoken with many people who feel the same. All we ask is that the staff members locate some more time to us as a player base!
