It's nothing in comparison to, say, moneypacks, or even to the current players who sell donator status. Even meth earns far more. The main thing is that this is more social than contraband and has greater scope for RP, though I haven't seen a massive amount yet. However, as with all new updates, players always gravitate to them. I remember back when I released the weapons update everyone was telling me it'd make things too aggressive; this was the case for 3-4 days, then the balance resumed. We'll just have to wait and see.

Furthermore, there are a lot of RP possibilities with this, which I think players might gravitate to once they've earned enough money to be satisfied with their bank account. A President could implement conservation laws; a good police team could run checks on illegal loggers without licenses; the mafia could use logging as a front to transport contraband between logs in vans; a media crew could use the new cinematic cameras to do reports on rampant deforestation in EvoCity; a player accidentally hit with an axe could be in need of medical care and as such a medical emergency RP begins; a forest fire could begin. There's a lot of potential RP here, once people get over the initial shock of a new way to passively earn money and get their money.

This.

You get to much money for it.... I love it but price should go down the economy will be damaged if it stays the same. No one will drive all the new cars and only drive sports cars..
I can't see the wood that I'm cutting, it says "Error". What can I do?
Good idea, but extremely OP right now. I kind of feel forced to do lumberjacking until it gets nerfed just because it's so good. Limiting lumberjack characters is unfair because they will be permanently taken with the current system.

And The first fools are already camping at the trader to robb you knowing that you either stay with a full inventory or a empty pocket.
Seriously those are the people i was nice enough to recover their cars, deny on giving fines, and negotiating wth beeing an officer. Those are the people i give rides too if their car got stolen or they are lost...
Are you kidding me guys. The wood business gives us good money but thereare still those people trying to make more and more and more robbing evrybody and anyone.
Those are the things which are really anoying: Greedy People ruining it for the rest of the community. Ive got robbed/shot/minged so many times just because one guy whos to lazy or dumb to cut wood, farm contras or trade wants to get 100 bucks more then he deserved.
Serioulsy im a bit fed up about weekly organized horrificly rping rebell crews. And the most annyoing part is that the guys who get robbed are usually the polit people willing to help.
I suggest to probably add a rule-safezone on a smaller radius around the trader like it is the case on most other servers/games. By tomorrow theyll probably just build a giant fence and charge us for entry...
Seriously its one thing to be a rebell and rob people - its another thing to minge like a 12 yo
Get your stuff together guys: Presidents charging 1000k licenses, Officer Bribing with 2k and Rebells Camping at every single spot to get their freaking money are just a poor sign of rp and inmaturity.
City RP is a bit about money but there is also "RP". You might wanna check this out
Now add the Woodcutting cape.
I am worried that maybe this has gone too far

Well during its first days its definatly more interesting as many people dont now the system so far or fear its getting changed. However the woodcutting takes half of the popultation which certainly weekens the over all Rp.
At the same time i doubt that removing or nerfing the system will imrprove anything since it is a good way to make money but it takes effort, time and a bit ofown risk (robberys, car crashes etc)
I think if the woodcutting ystsem would be nerfed less people might do it but it would certainly loose all its attractions since nobody will spend 10 minutes cutting 70 logs to gain 3,5k.
Porbably it would be best to add further Systems like an ore mine or a Field To Harvest onĀ  multiple locations so the poulation will be spreaded further. And over all i realy like the idea of going out of town to work and comming back after a long day.
Also the entire area around bar road and corleone street has never been so populated. Its a bit too overcrowded and needs some allocation but if it will be allocated it should be pretty enjoyable for everyone. This is litteraly the first time we can seriously talk about comercial traffic and traiding routes: Bus drivers are getting a job. The Police needs Highway Patrol Units to respond to the serveral accidents and make sure nobody is getting robbed. Over all a lot of people will find jobs and RP occasions who have not ben there before. Combined with leal way to make some money... perfect.
Also ive never seen such traffic density before. The Only thing which has to be improved is that we have to get more then one spot to harves and one rute to trade.
Well, it has now come to this many people.

1 - Lower the reward to around 20/25$ each.
2 - Make a job for Lumberjack for a maximum of 5/6 players.
3 - Do something to avoid the amount of auto clickers.

This is just too easy to make cash, and now the servers are boring because 9 in 10 people are cutting trees. Noone Roleplay anything, in my opinion this needs a BIG NERF else people will just cut wood 24/7.


Do you want criminals and crime lords running around the street mugging and having contraband and no roleplayers or passive lumberjacks cutting trees
And here we see the wood farmers in their natural habitat.
