No balance changes here. This post is Kefir's position on the ten things players asked about most in the first week after launch. The short version: several fixes are planned, and a few frustrations are working as intended.
The answers
| Question | Kefir's answer, in short |
|---|---|
| Why is it so hard to get onto police duty? | More cops risks the balance, so changes will be careful. Kefir says police duty will be improved. |
| Can parties have five players? | Tested early on. Bigger parties meant fewer random encounters. There is no plan to raise the cap of 3. |
| Why do cops earn less? | Crime is high-risk, high-reward. Cops get free gear and a share of the value of what they confiscate, plus bonuses for using the siren and ordering a surrender. |
| How does a solo player beat a group of cops? | Solo players start at Notoriety level 4 and get bonuses for selling goods and collecting loot. Scout first, hide the getaway car, disable alarms, intimidate NPCs. Criminal cars turn tighter than cruisers, and ramps help. |
| Players camp the drop-off points. | That is intended. There are several drop-off points. Safe drop-offs with low payouts were tested and cut because they were boring. |
| How do I switch servers? | Right now, by surrendering and going through Prison. Simpler server selection is planned. |
| Can I repair weapons? | Not yet. Gear loses durability every time you die, which takes items out of the economy. Repair is planned. |
| People jump base fences with cars. | Fences slow attackers down; they are not meant to block them, since aircraft exist too. Getting over a fence does not get you into the buildings. Defences will be improved. |
| I sold something valuable by accident. | Some items look like junk but are not. Item purposes will be explained better and protected from accidental sale. |
| Will there be Asia or Oceania servers? | Being looked at, but not before the end of 2026. |
Items with hidden value
Kefir named three kinds of items that players were selling without realising what they do:
- A key that opens a safe. Every room key and safe key names its door in the description; check it before you sell.
- A lottery ticket with a big payout, such as Lottery Ticket.
- The Jammer, which you need to steal the Buletti Soltempra from the Grand Hotel.
What is now promised
- Weapon repair.
- Easier server selection.
- Clearer item purposes and protection against accidental sales.
- Better base defences against fence jumping.
- Better police duty.
- New regions, not before the end of 2026.
