State vehicles are the vehicles that appear as unowned and can be used by any player.

Now with removal we will have below advantages:

  • More realistic environment.
  • Vehicle rental groups can have a purpose and can have roleplay chances.
  • Taxi driving job will get boosted when players don't have means of transport.
  • Random loitering of vehicles across map causing problems often will be gone.
  • Player to player interaction such as offering lifts or hitchhiking rides.
     

We will have some disadvantages as well:

  • People would have to wait for taxi or walk to nearest rental places when stranded.
  • A bare minimum amount of money has to be paid to taxi driver or rental services.
  • Thief job vehicles have to be stolen from players and no state car could be delivered.

 

We want to hear from you what do you think about this, please vote on the poll and drop down your views and opinions on this topic on this post as well. This post does not mean we are implementing any of these as of now, we just want to see how you guys feel about this kind of a change and what suggestion would you have to improve this.

I think it's a great idea that could motivate a new type of roleplay within the server. 

 

I'd also like to see the ability for players to run rental businesses. Perhaps the rate that is offered should be lower than the state prices to further drive interaction.

 

Moncef does a fantastic job with his BMX's he rents from Idlewood and shows that we do have players with creativity and a desire to roleplay

So people in san fierro or lv  have to walk across the map to find a rentable car, and also you will remove thief job i think..

Nobody will do taxo job if you don't increase its paycheck significantly 

 

Rentals would be there in SF, LV and all-over map and we won't touch theif job, it's just you won't be able to use state cars for the job.

my view is that this won't work out long term simply due to the fact that players play this server for the action aspect of it and not to work as taxi drivers or need to run for 20 minutes to reach their own vehicle

Yeah but players will be careful when driving their vehicle and not blow them up in the middle of nowhere and get stranded, so it's a positive side.

Not to mention that people might be driving with a little more caution/brain and the mechanics will have more work as well! So win-win to all.

that'd be the case if the server player base was a different... demographic (age, nationality, etc..)

LocMax is right, the players use the vehicles for blocking entrance in the turf, going to smuggles, evading cops etc. So yeah there will be crying at first but eventually they will cope up with it. Just keep the job vehicles and remove all state vehicles

It's a good idea but it won't work as expected since every player owns at least 1-2 vehicles at minimum, probably to increase the usage of rentals you should by increase the dealership prices & implement a new system which encourages the maintenance of vehicles from time to time as mentioned here:
