Nah Biggest L of 2024
for me as someone that I had my fair time on the server I would jump in events collect some money to waste them back to 0 and repeat, meanwhile I be talking to old friends and stuff but now I ain't touching the server
how you gonna make me fight over a giftbox that's an event for a few days that would help some occasional players or and new players, meanwhile when I join randomly I see tons of racing, events and lottery all going for like 50-100m+ sometimes even in like one hour window, big no I am too old for fighting over shit ngl fr fr no cap, but I hope you enjoy it to whoever playing atm

What I mentioned during the previous events this year applies to this one as well:

Events will no longer be the free zero-effort zero-risk money-spawning events that they were in the past. Sure, I know it sucks that you can't get a few hundred million by finding some gift boxes scattered around the map like in the past, but with previous events like that spawning $40-50 billion in just 1-2 weeks absolutely wrecks the economy. It leads to massive inflation and stockpiling of resources. New players and players that weren't around during the event have zero opportunity to catch up.

I am aware this is a disappointing to some of you, and the server is definitely more fun with 200-250 people chasing around gift boxes, but this is not sustainable. We're working hard on rebalancing the economy. After many years of insanely lucrative events, having unbalanced businesses that spawn billions at zero risk or effort, and selling premium addict for 2.50 EUR/month it will take some time, but we're getting there.

This isn't just affecting you either. Over the past 2 years, hundreds of people have contacted me asking to spend EUR on businesses, factions, vehicles, or special deals on premium plans. I've said no to every single one of them. I could have probably earned ~ 50,000 EUR if I said yes to all of them, which would have utterly destroyed the server economy and left you with a few players owning nearly everything, and I never did.

The reason for this is we have many plans and things in progress that will allow you to earn plenty of money throughout the entire year. An entirely revamped experience for new players that will encourage them to stick around. Plenty of new game mechanics that can be done alone, with a few friends, or with a massive group that reward you according to the time and risk you invest into it. But this relies on the economy being balanced, because what's the point if you can just wait a few months and earn $300m by playing a few days during the Halloween and Christmas event?

For now, just enjoy the event. It currently gives you a minimum of $600,000 - $1,000,000 per hour for just driving around the city - and much more if you get lucky. If that's not enough for you, or you don't enjoy the event - that's fine too. Just like some people might not enjoy being legal or paintball, it's entirely optional.

Just wait to see what 2025 will bring. :)
One of the main reasons I stopped playing is because the in-game economy is completely broken, making it nearly impossible to catch up. While some players own billions, others, like us old-timers trying to make a comeback, are left struggling with just a few million. It feels like we’re the poor outcasts on the server, unable to compete in a world where the gap is so massive—especially on light-DM/RP server.

If you keep buying guns and getting arrested, you can easily lose a million in an hour. I really miss the old economy, where having a billion was rare and felt like a real achievement and having at least +$100 million already makes you feel incredibly rich. Now, it seems like almost everyone has at least 500 million or a billion in their bank account and now, people bid on auctions with what feels like unlimited cash, and it’s just not enjoyable anymore.
