Not really...

Business System
Era Lottery
Instaheal Hospital (w/ 5sec unstick)
Event Subscribe (new warp thingy, and hosting gui) & Team Ec
etc. etc.

Just going off stuff I've seen the past 2 minutes. I'll stop now you get the point.

Completely forgot about kill-streaks/gang bonuses/betflipping/healing foods
Lets not forget about that Halloween!
And kill-drops.

Ya, so if anything, you guys (non-staff) are the lazy ones.

it's extremely hard to keep players occupied with limited resources. you should be thankful that unpaid staff members give the slightest **** about the server to develop new content. someone's gotta do it, right? if you don't like the content they release then play something else.

They should either leave or join the staff team and try and make your own content like I did.

What, leave or join? Or both?

[Tim_Rocks]

I was directing that statement toward the complainers.

I meant nothing really game changing has been released in a long time. Yeah, the little things you guys have added are pretty cool, but nothing has been done to really pull in new players or keeping the older ones playing. I just miss logging in and having a nice raid just waiting on me.
It's the one issue that needs to be at the top of your list. Gangs.

Working on it, it's really not that simple.. I've been shuffling leaders and making 'new' gangs. But it's the playerbase's attitude more-so than anything we can do. It's not like it used to be where we'd raid all day just for the sake of raiding and competing with each other.

Now there's all these incentives: points, money for kills, rewards for top points, tons of guns to unlock, even more money for point exchange.. the bases are how people *****ed and wanted them... even updated with anti-run & new doors & new captures, the guns are back at .05, the healing is superior and more balanced than ever, you can get up to 150hp and always be at max speed. Yet people simply dont want to raid.

We got activity up, everyone's forced to be on their gangtag. Yesterday with 70~ people online; exactly 50% were active gang members: BV had 15, BH had 9, TS had 5, and BB had 6 (Wil fired 2 of them for not participating, so 4). Yet they legitimately refused to raid or fight us (15v4), I even tried to do some prizeless mini-gang events and BV only agreed to one after Wil logged off.

I thought it was just them being lazy, so we purposefully spoon fed them a raid by hosting BH PK, yet still only 4-5 of them joined and the rest sat at the casino/unstick (a very small margin were actually 'afk'). And not a single one returned to the base after the warp ended.

I'd love to hear some ideas. You guys love to talk about it, but never participate yourselves. (Anfo, you recently lost gang leadership because you yourself never participated?)

I don't get it, what would make you guys want to participate?

Everything Rogue listed is exactly why I gave up on gangs and focused on businesses and events.

If we ever released something truly game changing, everyone would complain. We all saw what happened when I changed the gun stats...

Get rid of events completely.
Especially ULMS.

Incorporate the things that people like about events into the normal server gameplay.

Back when events were very rarely hosted people created their own fun.
