criticism is a good thing if there is effort behind it

I think it's important to let people voice their opinions on the map, regardless of whether other people agree with them or if they're even important opinions at all in the grand scheme of things.

if there were no shutters I think the top floor would be used every raid

I like the idea of having an outdoor strip mall that can have player-owned properties tbh

I understand why these exist but that doesn't make them any less annoying LOL I've probably crashed my car on one of these at least a hundred times

I just think it should have the second floor back. It doesn't matter if there are shops in it or not. Maybe we could just have the 1st floor have player-owned shops and the 2nd floor having NPC shops. I think V5 Bazaar was not very fun to play when shootouts happened every 5 seconds. This is...

That's okay. This is an incredibly niche opinion to have, and that's why it's precisely defined as my opinion. You can agree with it or not. I wanted to give my feedback on everything I could think about giving feedback on in regards to V6, so that's why I included that segment to begin with. I...

that's so fire I never said that the map's identity was corrupted by the assets. I said it was corrupted by the lore. There's a key difference here. While I think the usage of the textures and models of INFRA contributed to my dislike towards the homage paid in the first place, I never once...

If I drive in the forest on 200ms ping it's a death sentence. I should've clarified that I wasn't mentioning the forest in regards to this aspect of gameplay because of this. Sorry. When I try to escape cops, it mostly becomes a game of doing loops around the highway or buildings in the city...

If more people wanted to talk about it, like you and other staff members are doing, then they now have a place to do so in this thread. I was expecting that thread to close soon after what I posted, considering peeps brought attention to the fact that it was apparently not supposed to be in that...

It's my personal opinion that it was one step too far if it was meant to pay homage to the original. I'm not really a fan of the elements that were used from INFRA's story in the map's storytelling, both environmental and literal. I like the idea of having Bazaar connected to an offramp or...

I've decided to expand upon the criticisms I posted in the V5 WEEKEND suggestion, and open a thread for others to voice their compliments and criticisms in an effort to help the developers improve V7. I've moved anything about INFRA to the end of the post to put more of a focus on everything...

V6 is a big improvement on a lot of fronts, but is also deeply flawed, in my opinion. - This isn't meant to be an insult, but Bazaar's current iteration looks like a slapdash attempt to fix what wasn't broken. Having more Bazaar shops was a problem, yes, but what we have right now looks a lot...

I just think that's not that big of an issue. It should be done in shops anyways, or as a companion activity with powergrowing (a la meth + weed)

Adding more things for regular citizens to do could also help with the raid spam. SantosRP had a pretty in-depth cooking system, where if you cooked something or prepared a particular food item well enough, you would get temporary buffs or just fill both your hunger and thirst immediately in one...
