Hi All!

First off, we want to wish you all a wonderful new year from all of us at SAES:RPG and hope that 2022 is one of the best for you all!

We also want to thank each and every one of you that has stuck with us throughout 2021 with a major shout out to everyone in @Donator that has helped us keep the lights on.

And a final thanks from the HQ team to all of our staff and developers that have helped maintain the day to day running of our services through the year.

We hope 2022 will be another great year for us and we hope to have a few more great things coming your way soon with the first being from @Scorpyo and the @SAES-Creative team within the next couple weeks so stay tuned for that!

Thanks again,
SAES HQ Team

DROT's way of trying to provide a morale boost for SWAT before they lose #1

Your video clearly shows the desync that happens. He hits you then shoots the roof of the truck. It's just desync in a 2002 game, you're stretching trying to pull this off as a report.

@moley give me a time and date

People liked the old jail because there was lots of people and therefore more things to do. I don't think cutting the content zones in half is what people want.

@jukyplatinium na that was your score for the whole 4 weeks

Jail Trial

As previously mentioned, we are constantly observing the state of the jail as it is a major location for core gameplay. The last change made was as followed:

"Jail change: red doors now open using the single marker by the door".

This change didn't exactly have the desired effect we were looking for and therefore we're adapting it slightly further. Door operation within the jail will now function as followed:

"Both red doors are now operated using a single marker in the jail control room next to the cell marker".

We hope this will have a more beneficial effect on the server and we will continue to monitor it accordingly.

Have a wonderful week!
SAES Team

@law said in Summer Event Milestones #1:

TT had a lot of points, even Kain's system couldn't count them

pretty shameful for a level 5 gang to not have a single point

BR Changes

Also please take note of the following:

• High values removed from SF/TR

• Door movement speeds adjusted to the following:
  (Previous value for slow doors was 120)
  Cop count = 10 Move time = 80.0
  Cop count = 11 Move time = 68.0
  Cop count = 12 Move time = 56.0
  Cop count = 13 Move time = 44.0
  Cop count = 14 Move time = 32.0
  Cop count = 15 Move time = 20.0
  Cop count = 16 Move time = 8.0
  Cop count = 17 Move time = 5
  Cop count = 18 Move time = 5
  Cop count = 19 Move time = 5
  Cop count = 20 Move time = 5

We will continue to monitor success/fail rates and tweak again accordingly. This change has been done in order to make BRs more accessible during active server hours for criminals whilst also assisting cops during less active hours.

Best of luck with the remaining 3 weeks of the competition.
SAES Team!

@zac The above issue has been resolved as per https://discord.com/channels/229936715383439361/470183582128799764/849353429943975997

Thanks,
SAES Team

Good afternoon my lovely hormonal community!

King of San Andreas - Summer Event

(Note: This event is specifically for the official gangs of the server. We haven't forgotten about you squads. Your competition will be coming soon once some backend changes have been implemented!)

This event will take place throughout the entirety of June, starting 01/06/2021 00:00 and ending 01/07/2021 00:00.

The purpose of this event is to demonstrate which nefarious organisation is truly the king of San Andreas. In order to take part, gangs must take part in a large quantity of activities to come out on top at the end of the event duration. The top organisations which has collected the most points will be eligible for a variety of rewards.

Point System

• Turfs = 1 point/hour held
• Bank Robberies = 5 Points
• 8/8 Bank Robberies = 8 points

Note: If bank availability becomes an issue, this will be addressed.

Rewards

The top 3 participants in the competition will be rewarded.

First Place: Grand Prize

• 50% less jail time for the duration of 2 weeks in July
• $30,000,000 cash prize
• The following property:
  :::

:::

Second Place: Medium Prize

• 50% less jail time for the duration of 1 week
• $15,000,000 cash prize
• The following properties: (Subject to change if better properties come available during the competition)

:::

:::

Third Place: Low Tier

• $10,000,000 Cash Prize

We wish you all the very best of luck in the competition! Please make sure Teddy doesn't win, thanks.

Jail Update

During the feedback the other week, many individuals expressed concern surrounding the jail and how difficult it is to currently jailbreak. In order to combat this, the requirement for 2 individuals to open the red door has been removed.

Similarly to the old jail, you now only need one single individual at either of the red doors to now jailbreak once the cells have been opened. We will be observing this closely and will adjust accordingly if the desired effect is not met.

Small BR Rule Tweak

Previously the BR rule stated:
5) Do not marker kill or marker arrest players entering or exiting a bank just before, or during a Bank Robbery.

The rule now states:

5. Do not marker kill or marker arrest players entering or exiting a bank during a Bank Robbery.

This has been done in accordance to the new markers being introduced. With the new markers being introduced, it was deemed very difficult to start a bank robbery due to the multiple entry points. This rule now only exists once a BR has been physically started.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and good luck getting prepared for the competition!

Thanks
SAES Team

South American internet everybody

Also HB for yesterday

Hello!

You didn't ask, but we delivered anyway! With this patch, comes a slight change in the reward system for turfing in order to make it more engaging and rewarding for gangs that login and actively fight over turf zones!

For those that aren't aware, the current turf system rewards gangs 100k when they take a turf and removes 100k when they lose it making the reward from actively turfing essentially non existent aside from personal enjoyment.

To address this issue, the reward system has been changed from a static reward to a gradual reward. This means that the longer you hold a turf, the more money you get each hour.

Values and figures

Initial reward for taking a turf: $30,000

Hourly Base Pay: $10,000
Hourly Modifier: 1.2%
Maximum Income: $50,000

With these current figures, the hourly income is as followed:
1 hour: 12,000
2 hours: 14,400
3 hours: 17,280
4 hours: 20,736
5 hours: 24,883
6 hours: 29,859
7 hours: 35,831
8 hours: 42,998
9+ hours: 50,000

The numbers as per usual, are subject to changed based on turf activity or if gangs are found to be exploiting the system in any way.

Turf Analytics

Similar to how BR stats are done, theres now a backend system in place to observe turf activity too. This means you can expect regular feedback on organisations which have turfed the most and/or held turfs the longest. These analytics will also be taken into Gang Management activity counts too.

Feel free to comment below with feedback and please report any bugs to me via discord.

@johnnyenglish said in [SWAT]Bart DMing to save his criminal friend:

Report made ingame has already been dealt with, adminjail has been issued as punishment.
I do not see any need to create a forum topic about the same thing, not only around weeks later but also in the wrong section.

Wonderful feedback as always @Law. Do note the part where I said if you have anything useful/helpful to add, you know how to reach out.

@Spartan this is why only 2 of said banks now have those figures

Hey guys,

Just a quick one as I felt this needed addressing a bit more. In response to a large number of negative player feedback concerning the BR changes made a couple weeks ago, we'll be updating the current 6 banks to the following:

Los Santos - Returned to normal state. (4 gates, max 8m safes)
Las Venturas - Slow opening gates will remain, safes returned back to max 8m.
San Fierro - Slow opening gates removed, safes max 80m will remain.

Bone County - Returned to normal state. (3 gates, max 8m safes)
Red County - Slow opening gates will remain, safes returned back to max 8m.
Tierra Robada - Slow opening gates removed, safes max 80m will remain.

Whilst we do realise that making significant changes to areas of the gamemode such as Bank Robs can be very controversial at times, granted not all of them are perfect, we do have to remind people that it can be very difficult to find the perfect game balance when a large majority of the server is on one side in what's essentially a cops vs criminals server. We do encourage you to reach out if you have genuine/constructive feedback to either Gang/Group Management or SAES HQ.

Thanks,
SAES HQ.
