I know some people will see the title and go big nono, but I think it's a good idea to at least have the discussion so I know what the stance is on it & motivations. Should also note it's my opinion and not everyone is gonna agree, that's just how it is. But I do know many people feel the same.
I've been playing on the server for a couple of months now without joining a gang and there's something that is really annoying to deal with, which is that (as the title says) firearms are not really accessable to normal players. It becomes and issue when you have gang members or whatever who all got guns, and unless you're with them or in contact with them there's no real way to get your hands on firearms.
So you have this issue where no player except gang members and their contacts get their hands on firearms (except cops). If it doesn't sound alarming already then there's this thing on this server that it feels sometimes a lot of people are just trigger happy. It's very easy to get people wanna kill you and with nothing to protect with it's really annoying since you can't do anything back, you're powerless.
Situation on the server right now is that you cannot fuck with these people, there's no way you gonna ever pose a threat to them unless you join a gang, which isn't my cup of tea. I don't want a firearm to kill everyone I see, but I do want one for my own protection, which the server lacks for a portion of the players.
Y'all probably gonna think "oh no it's gonna cause way too much chaos in the city". but I belive not having a firearm store (or something EASIER than the weapon manufacturing we have now) in my opinion is worse since it gives so much power to those who can get a hold of them.
Our ARMA server has public firearm stores, and I don't recall there being an issue with "too many guns" or other issues with guns in general. Many had firearms and people used them for self defence. It was well balanced, but our FiveM server just isn't.
The administration team probably removed the firearm store since they thought it's gonna drop the violence on the server, but I don't think it really did, and even if it does it ruins a balance on the server. The hidden drug system where you gotta ask people isn't gonna work for gun manufacturing, and wont ever. Knowing / not knowing drug locations is just a way to make money, but knowing how to craft firearms is required for self defense. No self defence is not fun, but instead extremly fustrating at times. The only defence players have is driving away from people with guns, and then you'll meet them later and they'll just pull up a pistol and you can't do shit but comply.
So yea it's a bit of a rant. People who are in gangs, who do easily get firearms obviously cant relate, and will probably say "you dont need a gun". Players who know how to craft will probably say "it's not easy to manufacture". But it's just a matter of time for these people (usally large gangs with many members) to gather what they need - what about everyone else who don't know anything?
Or maybe we need the bounty system we had in ARMA that gave you a bounty when you killed a player, so people wont do it with no consequence?
