Concept Real Business or Business 2 DLC idea

[Kronichh]

Now, before you link me to the wishlist thread, actually read the post and share your thoughts

Something I thought out on paper that i thought would be cool. Expecting alot of hate tbh XD

Real Business or Business 2 Update.
Many interiors are opened up around LS, and the player can buy the building for a certain price. For as long as they own it AND are playing the game (cant ditch for a week and come back to millions) they make a certain amount depending on the business. These can only be bought if nobody else in the session owns it, and if it is already owned it can be bought off the owner with a changeable asking price (which can go to a minimum of half the business initial expense). If nobody owns it, go ahead. It's yours if you can afford it. Note to get paid the player MUST be in free roam. The pay will be timed. Say every hour. This timer pauses when you go into a heist or mission. There will be a sh*tton of new missions much like singleplayer to assist running the business and pay+business value is decreased until they are completed.

BUYING
Properties can be bought ONLY by visiting the actual location, and walking up ti the Minotaur Real Estate sign to purchase the property. For example, you could buy the Route 68 Los Santos Customs for 500k, recieving a total of 2k/hour, much like in Singleplayer. Only a maximum of 3 properties can be owned at a time.

 

SELLING
At any point in a session another player in the same lobby can purchase the business you own for a price that you determine (you can use the full original price, which is the max and half the original price, which is the minimum). This is adjustable as a quick-fix for cash, and can be a decent long term investment. For example, You own Vinewood Ponsonby's which you bought for 700k, made a grand total over 3 months of 1mil, 300k over your original investment and now you want to top that off. You put it up for sale, which signifies that the owner wants the property to be bought. You can buy them even when it isnt flagged, but this notifies all players. A player drives to the store and purchases it. You set your asking price, which must be at or below the hard coded price to prevent heavy exploiting (mass property exchange). You make another 600k in selling, and you can enjoy that long-term investment.

 

BEING AN OWNER
As an owner, you make a specific cut of the business' earnings. These earnings are deposited into your Minotaur Real Estate savings account. These can be emptied directly into your bank account at any time you wish. If you wish to sell, you can do so by going into the Interaction Menu>Minotaur>[business Name]>Flag for Sale. This, like previously mentioned, notifies players in the session that the owner wants to get rid of the property. Most businesses wil require you to do certain missions like in singleplayer to assist running the busniess, for example, Los Santos Customs is running low on car parts and needs you to deliver their shipment, you will be paid extra for this, and will add Reputation to your business.

REPUTATION
This is a function to separate good owners from bad. Map blips shown in white are unowned properties, blue for owned properties, red for negative reputation and green for positive. The Friend/crew rings will show as normal. If your business has a bad reputation it decreases your pay and can get you fired from the organisation. The map blip shows your reputation, if it goes below -10 you will be fired from the business without refund. If your reputation is good your hourly pay is minutely increased to show your effort. You lose reputation points for missing business missions, so own businesses in moderation, you dont want to be flooded with missions and get a bad reputation. You gain reputation for completing missions

 

RELATION TO VIP
If you are a VIP with an organisation, they can assist in running your business. They can do the missions for you or with you, lighten your workload. Being a VIP with an organisation unlocks a new mission similar to Piracy Prevention where the organisation must prevent other players from entering the building/area for 5 minutes. bodyguards are not paid by Minotaur, but when they do the missions a cut favored to the VIP is created.

 

EMPIRES
If you are in a crew majorly in one session many businesses can be bought under the crew name, this forms an empire and pay is increased by 20% in missions and timed pay. 12 businesses under the same crew are required to form an empire (4 players minimum).

 

INTERACTION MENU
There will be a new tab added to the interaction Menu called Minotaur. This is where you can manage your properties, flag them for sale, request missions and abandon the business altogether.

 

ABANDONMENT
This is a last-ditch effort if you cannot find a buyer and want to rid the business quickly. It can be found in the interaction menu and you recieve 25% of the buying price.

 

COOLDOWNS
After abandoning or selling a business the player must wait 6 hours before being able to buy another property in that slot (there are 3, each with individual cooldowns)

So what do you think about this idea? Would you like to see it? What do you think I could improve about the idea? Whatever you have to say drop a comment below. I honestly dont care what you say, I wont be offended (although about 90% of this forum doesnt give a sh*t lol)

I own bahama mamma's, tequila la and burton LSC along with several thousand other players.

Who owns it in freeroam?

Are the missions to be done in FR too? And how do you plan to stop griefing?

If loads of people in the session all own the same business and doing missions too increase reputation that's a lot of traffic trying to deliver stuff.

Deliver them car parts through that barrage of sticky bombs and rpgs.

Sounds like you'll not be able to move from your property without encountering hordes of freeroam rambo's and other "owners" all throwing lead around like confetti.

 

Reputation means nothing as you produce nothing as theres no crafting. Not everyone wants to spend time freeroam deathmatching, just like some won't like doing instanced missions.

Forcing people to do PVP/PVE to increase a meaningless reputation bar to earn 2k an hour. Dailies are worth 25k and if it's got wank tasks in I won't bother. I'm really not gonna bother with

dodging explosives ordnance for such a meesly payout. 4 pac stan finales is $1.25 mil.

Also I'm a rich business owner A) I'm not van driving sh*t around to various locations, that's what emplyee's are for. B) I own the business, how the fook do I get fired?

 

The whole selling and abandonment system needs some more work too. Sounds like a lot of effort for nothing.

Also we live in a time of internet phone banking and shopping. Why the fuq do I have to go in person to the location to buy it?

Are you wanting me to bring the cash with me too? Sound like I'm gonna get robbed rather than buy a business.

 

I'd rather those locations were opened and activities put in.

Nightclubs have bars and music and maybe dancing or something ala GTA SA. The Casino have gambling and horse racing. The maze bank arena having stock cars and moto x and other sports.

More of the nicer houses/mansions opened up and put up for sale and restrictions on owned properties lifted.

More of the fleeca banks turned into freeroam 2-4 man heists similar to how the old armoured trucks worked. Instant 5 stars and a +10k bounty. Escape with the money like pac stan where damage equals less cash.

You want single player and multiplayer to merge. Not taking a sh*t on the idea but you didn't add much to this idea for it to be even considered as an addition. I don't see it working for the main fact that you force people to remain online in open sessions....not gonna go over well.

judging by a large portion of this I'm unsure if you liked vip missions either. If multiple people own a property... Ahh f*ck it nobody cares MODS DELETE THE THREAD PLEASE
