As much as I don't want to say it,
I agree.
Without the updates, its an absolute failure.
Perhaps even in a worst form than the initial.

You can't place expectations on leaders as you would in the other system...

Well, let me rephrase.
You can't place expectations on leaders as you would in other system WITHOUT actually getting up and doing some kind of work.

But if you did that, you might as well add updates... *Kanye voice* Huh?

A stupid shop isn't going to do anything for the gang system. Everyone will get the prizes in a week and then be bored again.

I realize that; i meant when i said "fail" was that it has not solved anything
In reality the new gang system is just like the old gang system :s

That all depends on how you design and balance it all.

this is more at wil and not ikki, but

this man has posted. you'll probably disagree with it.
but look how nice the discussion is, this post aside, and how close it is to actually being on-topic

don't rage at this man.

also..old gang system was better, hands down. I don't see any kind of shop changing that.

Icarus had a plan,
Deophite had a plan,
Squirt had a plan,
Chris had a plan,

and the latter...

Pardon my french but,
What the HELL is that supposed to mean to us?

Then again, its difficult to create things that would positively impact gameplay, when you've never truly played the game.

So kuddos to the plan for re-adding Southridge and a Ferry Boat.

@Scoper
Were you even able to get in a gang? o.O? lol.
You don't even PK, nor do much involved with gangs.
That's, ever so surprisingly ::rollseyes::, a pretty ignorant and uneducated remark.

I'd say they both are terrible.
Rationally, a shop or reward system would make a great deal of difference to the current gang system because the entire system is based on POINTS. o.O?
Change such a major factor, and the effects would be just as major.

Are you,
A. Blind
B. Deaf
C. Crazy

Take your pick.

Just because I didn't participate in every raid doesn't mean I'm completely unaware of how things were, and are.

Nobody cares about raiding now, as you yourself have argued. When there were only 3 gangs, raiding was a big thing (did i mention events didn't deter that? if nothing else, they encouraged it), people cared about being in gangs. They actually meant something
A shop might change that, but I doubt it.

Gang activity is down, gang members *****ing is up. Leads me to think the current system is inherently broken.
The old system wasn't perfect, no. I had a lot of problems with it, personally. But it was better than this one.
