this will attract players for longer time. as when they get 5000$ they stay in server for less time. and when they have large amount of cash 50000$ in hand they will stay longer. (this i think, i dont know about others).

Yes this idea is great, I think the players enjoy it and this computer and I know what he would have done in the future. And I love the idea with $ 50,000 ... $ 5,000 was too little money for a new player ..

They'd still get $5000 in hand, but they'd get an extra $50000 in the bank

Yeah lets' give them $50.000 then what is left to play for? They'll buy properties, weapons, kill other players and gain even more cash.

The original point of moneygrub was to start with $500 and a deagle and work your way up to better weapons and stuff.. and then finally when you had everything it gave you great satisfaction, then you had to redo it all after you logged out and rejoined.. LW's used to be way better

Like this there is nothing left to play for, only gives more reason to not play if you ask me.

With 50k you can't do that much, you can buy spawn weapons for one session but that's about it. You gotta admit Sneaky, most new players don't like starting out with such a reduced balance..

[Sneaky]

Or you could buy 1 property for say $20.000 and buy spawnweapons for $20.000 and buy normal weapons for $10.000, go kill some "noobs" with lots of cash while gaining cash from properties.... or something, my point is anyone who has some skills can make 1 million out of that $50.000 in no time, making the gameplay even less addictive cause it becomes even easier to reach your goal.

This wont bring more players to littlewhitey's, you all know that, LW needs BIG changes, addictive, progression/achievements, less stats based gameplay (3.0) to become good again.

I remember 4 years ago in 0.1 how fun littlewhitey's was, there was no bank to save your cash, you started with a deagle and $500 and had to work your way up until you could buy good weapons and then the fun really started, that is what kept people playing; having to work hard for something, this only makes it easier.. know what I'm saying?

Just admit that we, the "regulars" are the only "group" of players who like having less cash.

[Sneaky]

Right, imagine going on a new server as a new player where you can buy houses for $50.000, when you spawn for the first time they give you $100.000, would you like that? Wouldn't it be much more fun to work hard to gain more cash and then finally be able to buy that house you always wanted?

At least that's how I see it, if you'd just make every feature available in the server to a player it becomes boring, which is what is happening to LW for last 2 years or so.

Nah scotte,if they register and they will see this money(50k) and will give it of some friends and will register again and will do it again to have full bank,50k is very much

Don't think so, it would be cool to have a base you can start from, which'd be the house for $50.000, then (a bit more experienced) going to work for the $500.000 house you wanted.

[AJP]

Well this won't solve your economy for the rest of your time on LW's. It'll just give a little push for people to work on something. Also if properties are changed and less BIG props are added that would be an interesting feature (Suggested somewhere already).

@scott in my old prop days of 0.2x i turned 50k into 500k.

That sounds good

The idea is great, but i also think you should make some cheaper proberties then. They would help new players to start, for example some new clothes stores. There are few low-cost stores that can even bought by advanced players. There should be some new stores only for newbies...
