GTA V RP - Living spaces and how to make them interesting

[Cryptic Strolski]

First off, we should have multiple types of homes, from apartments to houses to mansions. They should be located based on their level of class throughout the city to assist with the immersion aspect.

Secondly, These types should vary in size and quality. So the cheapest apartment should also be the smallest and have the smallest storage space, it should also start out in shambles and as you invest into it, you can upgrade to a cleaner apartment, better styling options instead of the bland all white design that you would start with.

Perhaps as you invest in a better home or a mansion as a next step up, it will have certain empty rooms that you can "purchase" setups for. A beneficial example to this would be, the heist room, based off the GTA V Heist room, you can literally tie this into bank and jewelry store robberies. Basically a heist room is required in order to have access to committing robberies at a bank or jewelry store. You could take this one step further to perhaps limiting the owner of the heist room to 1 robbery of each store per day. In the heist room, you would need to store the appropriate equipment in the table in order to enable the ability to conduct a heist. When a heist is conducted, the table consumes the equipment involved in that heist.

Allow PD the ability to get warrants for player owned housing(This will require a CAD system). When PD gets said warrant, they will gain the ability to search that player's house and storage for illegal items.

Basically this would put some roleplay esque barriers and intricacies to things like robberies, I'm sure there's other rooms one might come up with that could make this even more useful upgrade-wise. It would be a fun money sink for those with a ridiculous amount of money. Ultimately it adds another thing for us to spend money on that's not cars and guns.

Yeaaah we used to have multiple apartments.

These ideas would be amazing tho

 

[Luna_M]

I definitely agree

Curious if tech team thinks this is something possible, I’ll forward it to them.

We used to have tons of housing in the city and then everyone wanted centralized housing and a centralized garage.

Location is just an idea, the more important part of this concept is what you can DO with the property which are the cool parts of this suggestion I think. The location and exterior look is purely for immersion. But if people want convenience, it can all be located at the same spots we have now but give access to multiple tiers of purchase.

Any idea what the reason everyone wanted everything centralized was? Adam

The housing all over we had before was contributing to massive frame loss

Sounds fun, but will take away rp at apps, not a big deal for me personally. About robbing a store once a day i dislike, Not being able to rob when i get on ( because NA people did them) would be a shame. Only talking about big heists here. And dont have the equipment removed. If you come out alive you can re-use it. And if Guns are considered equipment it will be expensive.

The equipment is for the roleplay equivelent of having to put effort into preparing for each heist, so I think consuming the equipment is necessary. Not a bunch of expensive equipment, just certain tools you can buy for cheap for the effect of the situation. How would it take away RP at apps?

Robbing the store once a day means the owner of the heist room can rob once a day, not robberies in general are once a day. So if you hop on in your timezone and have a heist room with equipment in it, you can conduct a heist.

Guns would not be part of the equipment, as explained above, it's supposed to be simple tools you would use that are not meant to cost you money, but take some time to acquire. If they take enough time, maybe they can replace the once a day timer concept.

Can we make a poll about this since apparently everyone wants centralized stuff? Most of the people I talk to would love this idea. I think we should have our own personal garages at the houses that have garages aswell. We can store our vehicles and clothing we buy there instead of being toxic at legion square. This could benefit criminals and cops alike. We can have cops spawn their vehicles at home, criminals will have somewhere to hide along with REAL addresses that we can track them to instead of one appartment or one garage everyone uses... and allot more benefits aswell.
