Residential Burglary

Intro:

Before I go into this suggestion, I just want to say, I am a cop main but I want this suggestion to be for crims. I understand their frustrations and would love to see something for them to get their teeth into they'd enjoy.

Suggestion:

My idea, is to add a single NPC to the server who when approached gives you a location to burgle a house, this house will be completely random and could take you anywhere, when you break into the property (which will be an NPC house, not an actual players house). The property will be one of a couple of different interiors with an asortment of furniture and storage. Inside the storages will be all kinds of items, nothing too insane, lets say it's about the amount of 10 minutes of panning would give. There's a chance of wads of cash, anywhere from 3 - 10 though, it's random. Maybe an extremely rare chance of something extra special. It's a proper treasure hunt when you are in there, but when you enter there's a chance the police may be alerted immediatly or after a minute of you entering.

I think the NPC should ask for a item, they'll say "keep whatever you find, but bring that trophy/watch/necklace to me!"

Police:
For Police this would be extra special, we love doing property breaches but more often then not, no one is in there. This would be very fun for Police searching for a crim, the property layouts could be all kinds of chaos to make the property search and clear extra interesting.

Crims:
This would give crims an element of mystery, they don't know when police are coming through that door, how much time they have left, how much stuff they can steal before Police turn up, risk it and take more stuff or grab a few things and leg it? Upon stealing the special item, the NPC will pay the player a little money on top of the other items. Again this is all in realms of balance.

Balance:
I think this can be easily balanced against: Number of cops online required, items needed to breach a property, how quickly the alarm goes off and which items go inside these NPC propertys.


I won't over complicate it too much but I think these basic foundations would give to serve both crims and Police extremely well! I look forward to your thoughts

+1 great idea. Would love to be a career burglar. Maybe you need to carry a small 'kit' on you in order to break into the houses (lockpicks, adv lockpicks, screwdriver, crowbar etc) could make for some fun RP if you get stopped and searched. Some houses only need a crowbar others might need more tools to open etc. Would be cool to have an NPC 'fence' you have to sell your stolen good to. Maye you get paid in wads of cash to make it high risk, high reward.
 
It would be cool to see something like this added to RPUK

Have items such as watches, chains, rings , art work ? and sell to a pawnshop that changes location everyday or restart like a dodgy doctor !

could even have a new skill added that makes it easier for you to find items in the house etc! there is a lot of potential with this idea and lots of RP to go along!

I'd even be up for it being player houses. But to make it fair, could scramble the house inventory; so that the player doesn't lose their items.

My judge has a banging house thanks to @Astrid Belski and I think it'd be cool for cops and crims alike to have to go through it because it's been burgled.
 
+ 1 but I reckon the findings in the house could be much more than 10 minutes worth of panning. The reason for this is the risk you take breaking into a house and almost certain that a cop will show up just to search for a couple of wads of cash / or materials etc wouldn't be worth the risk in my opinion yes. 100% fun! But personally think the risk factor would outweigh the rewards.
 
If this does get added I’d love to see different tier houses. Lower tier you can just rob with a screwdriver/crowbar higher tier you gotta break into life invader to get some software so you can turn off the burglary alarm in the house.
I’m bad at explaining stuff 😂 I hope you get what I mean

somewhat related, but unrelated to quoted bit

allow for multiple exits/entrances(even if they're somewhat persistent) if possible, so cops just can't camp the front door waiting for you to leave

Agree mate, I thought the same with risk and then more than likely a few cops will be outside and you're caught every time
