Dennis Dillberry Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 Peoples cars are taken too easily from outside places they're visiting. I've had my car stolen multiple times when I'm getting food Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yama Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 Like randomly getting your car stolen? I'm not sure if making the lock picking tougher or slower will help as much as you want. You could try making some RP for the cops. I'm sure the detectives would love to deal with a string of car thefts, cops focused on catching them can be a good deterrent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darlings Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 -1 The mechanic is present within the server that makes stealing others cars atleast a 3-5 minute process, in addition to that you can also hear within a very large radius if a car is being broken into or not. Kinda like Jay is saying here, you can always report a car stolen to the police and make it a whole investigation for them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dK_ Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Los Santos is full of criminals, if you leave a nice car unattended for long periods of time that’s kinda on you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McPikey - Fast J Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 I am in favor of a security upgrade that you could buy IC for like $50-$100k that would require more than a lockpick to steal. Having said that I think there was a recent car robbery crime spree the other night, so there may have been a spike but its not really that common in my experience.

Having this as an option would be interesting. I don't know the logistics behind it, but I could see even having a more expensive upgrade that would add a tracker for the vehicle so if the thief didn't disable it in some way you could chase them down. Might make from some interesting RP scenarios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it happens but immediately jumping to deathramming and fire squads is pretty terrible. At that point, just go play GTA online cause you aren't rp'ing anything there. I think if it was implemented, there should be something letting the person stealing it know, like a beeping or something, so they could leave the car if they didn't want someone chasing them. But the server admins should have a feel with how the gangs they sanction would handle it so if they think it's a bad idea for the city then it probably is.
