It's so high to the point where we get massive car pileups and wrecks if just one person stops in the middle of the road. Just a bit too hectic for me.

I think we don't need to have so many pedestrians and cars

I've noticed the population actually fluctuates based on the time of day, at least I'm 90% sure it does or I'm going insane because there's times where there's literally loads of people and plenty of cars and then as it gets towards night time and then there's no pedestrians and no cars.

There's even been times where I've been looking for a car to lockpick and it's just completely dead.

If it is time based as I believe it to be, it makes total sense that at the rush hour there'd be loads of people.

That's just the base game, pedestrians adapt to their environment. If it's raining you won't see them at the seaside beach resorts. When it's dark out there will be less people.

Still though, as the servers grows the population density will probably need to get lowered or it will run into performance problems, especially when we have more entities

I kinda like it how it is but I wouldn’t mind revisiting this down the line if there’s performance issues.

My biggest issue with the NPCs is that they seem to be fond of driving like I do at times, that is, I mean, driving in the wrong lane and on the sidewalks sometimes going into trees.

Also they like to rear end me then get out to fight me during my delivery runs.

A lot of them are hyper aggressive, at the chop shop they'll just start shooting if you even look at them the wrong way. Weird considering how I'm trying to get a job lmfao

I was literally just taking boxes out of the back of my truck for delivery and a local just runs up and sucker punched me from behind :(

I dont mind the density, it might be an issue when police scenes start happening in the middle of the road more frequently though

I also dislike that they will regularly drive like absolute fucking crackheads, worse than any actual player on the server sometimes by bombing through the city at 100 screaming 1 liners as they disregard any human life

Me: just minding my own business at a stop light. Vibing, in my own lane, moisturized, enjoying life
Local: *flies down the road at 90 mph* “FUCKING RETARD!!!”
Me: :0
