I've been playing around with streaming lately, you can see our exploits here:

(Some settings need altering. My mic volume will be recorded a little lower from now on. I think streaming is capping me at 30fps, which is fine for normal day-to-day stuff like driving around. Might need to re-think it for combat situations.)

So anyway, chat here about plans, problems and pasta-pizzas. Some of us have a little experience in the mod but I think most of us are learning as we go.

It's a bit slow to start with but once we're geared up I think it'll be good fun. With 5/6 playing we'll have plenty of cash in no time.

I think our long terms goals are:
#Upgrade gang to level 6 so we can build a base.
#Get a helicopter to make missions much faster.
#House(s)?
#Safe/lockboxes

Did some digging in the files of the server we play on. Here's what each team gets paid:So....
West (Blue/Police) start with $25,000 and get $8,000 wage every 5 minutes.
East (Red/Civilians) start with $25,000 and get $2,500 wage every 5 minutes.
Independent (Green/Medics) start with $50,000 and get $10,000 wage every 5 minutes.


We need Psirus to shoot at (befriend) more Medic players, as they're minted.


Give us a week...

How a quarry run netted me $1.5 million

Go to quarry with pickaxe.
Gather a load of rocks (press X near boulder) and throw them in vehicle.
Fill vehicle with rocks.
Fill character inventory with rocks.
Drive to Rock Processing and process into cement.
Drive to Cement Dealer and sell cement.
Drive back to ATM and get "mugged".

3 guys stopped me in Agios Dionysios (or whatever it's called) as I was 20 yards from the ATM about to deposit my $58,000. They drove an Ifrit in front of me and out of nowhere another one appeared behind me blocking me in.
GUY1: "GET OUT THE CAR!"
ME: "Alright, relax!"
*I step out, automatically drawing my gun. I quickly holster it and lie down*
GUY2: "Why are you round here!?"
ME: "I did a quarry run. Just about to start another."
*They knock me to the ground, bind my hands and drag me to the ATM I was on my way to.*
GUY2: "How much do you have in the bank?"
ME: "Uhh, like $78,000."
GUY3: "Who do you think you are!?!?"
ME: "I don't understand the question... I only started playing today."
GUY1: "Here, I'll give you some cash."
ME: "Erm. Okay... thanks."
<GUY1 has given you $500,000>
GUY3: "Don't pretend to be nicer than me! I'LL GIVE YOU SOME CASH!"
<GUY3 has given you $500,000>
ME: "Thanks! Any tips for making cash?"
GUY2: "Here's some off me. Oh and do some salt runs."
<GUY2 has given you $250,000>
GUY1: "Salt runs are dangerous."
ME: "Yeah I was mugged by 2 Russians doing a salt run earlier."
GUY2: "Turtles! And diamonds!"
ME: "Isn't the diamond license expense?"
GUY1: "We're gonna go shoot stuff. PUT YOUR MONEY IN THE BANK!"
ME: "Okay! Thanks again."

They stuck around until they'd seen me deposit the cash.

They then blew up the red truck I was using. I saw 2 empty paramedic trucks nearby and took one to the chop-shop down the road. As I came back for the other, the town started exploding and my "muggers" blew it up. I logged out nearby as they were blowing the doors off a church. O_o

The game itself is good... the players are ridiculously unpredictable.
