DE and CLO currently have a shared activity called Warfare, which is similar to turfing. This rarely gets used though, usually one side AFK turfs the other, because the attacking side often attacks with big numbers, leaving the defenders outnumbered, due to anyone being able to attack at any point in time. Instead of the current system, I'm proposing a time-based change: * Warfare happens in a secondary dimension. There's a Top 10 Killers panel, and at the end of the war, players will be rewarded in cash by how many kills they had + how long they attended for. This could also allow players to host mini-events during the war, f.e. "top cop killer gets 10 million" * Warfare starts every 24 hours, at peak hours, f.e. 19:00 in-game time. This ensures players have enough time to decide whether they can attend or not * Both criminals and cops can attend Warfare. This incentivizes players to play daily to be seen more by CLO/DE and make their chances of joining higher * Only DE and CLO can capture turfs. Cops/crims can only assist by killing, but still see the progress. In theory, DE would give orders to cops on where to go next via radio, and CLO would give orders to criminals (would need a new shared chat for this) * DE and CLO can each have a total of 2 Hydras in the air at a time. Hydras can fire at opponents on the ground, prompting the other side to send their own Hydras to intercept. This would need some balancing though, so players don't ragequit from being bombed by hydras * Each turf starts as neutral and can only be captured once by each team. Let's assume when the event starts, CLO starts attacking LV Turf 1 and DE starts attacking SF Turf 1. After LV Turf 1 is captured by CLO, they would only be able to be captured by DE once. If DE succeeds in capturing LV Turf 1, the Turf would be locked and CLO wouldn't be able to capture it anymore. Similarly, if CLO successfully defends it, DE wouldn't be able to capture it anymore. Meaning, if there are 4 turfs and CLO captures 3 by the end of the war, DE capturing 1, CLO would win. If CLO captures 2 and DE captures 2, it's a tie. Either way, whoever wins, both sides get money for attendance and kills while the winning side gets slightly more. This suggestion would promote daily server activity and motivate players to grind in order to join special groups.

Hello everyone, It is with mixed feelings that I write this today to bid farewell to Yakuza, a gang that carried forward a legacy many of you already know from The Company. From the start, Yakuza was never only about ranks, turfs, or bank robberies. Discord chaos, midnight wars, and just having fun instead of the tryharding we did in ThC back in 2019. We shared wins and losses, welcomed new players, and tried to build something with identity, activity, and respect. SAES was our playground, and for over two years, we made the most of it. To the wider SAES community, the gangs we fought, the criminals we robbed banks with, and everyone who once were a part of Yakuza, thank you. The competition, the pressure, and the nights spent contesting the map are a big part of why this gang felt alive. Respect to all of you. I would like to personally thank the old man @Adistar himself for making Yakuza possible, @ButcheR for carrying bank robberies during our Level 5 application, @Toretto for carrying media & recruitment when everything felt hopeless and especially @Cicada for reviving the gang and keeping up hope when no one else would. Below is a list of members, both current and former, that contributed to Yakuza in a way more than others: @Scooty, @Jesse421, Killer, Blue, @Reed, @Noizi, @Kinji, @hRL, RaZ0or, @Filex, @Liyones, @Leonard, @WenDo, @Bostonking, @RikKi, @Poodlyz, @DarkSideR, @Hunterr Sincerely, HQ of Yakuza

@Kain I wanted to respond to your comments as well on this topic. You mentioned that over the years, SAES developers have been focused on making cops less dependent on criminals starting activities, which is a good point, but that logic only works for the player base and activity SAES had in 2019. Today, the main problem is that criminals don't bother hosting bank robberies if they see too many cops in-game, so they just either quit or wait AFK until cops log off. The same applies for cops - I have seen multiple cops complain about just having to wait for hours for a bank robbery to happen. Both of these issues could be fixed by turning the current version of Public Bank Robbery into an event that happens every 1 or 2 hours. A different solution has to be figured out for Gang Bank Robberies though.

While the rest of the arguments in this topic are debatable between being too reasonable for criminals and too unfair for cops, I would like to add to this aspect. I agree that many players want to be a part of special groups but often have no way of showing their interest for it, thus reducing server activity.
