I got into the server also because of the limited supplies, keeping in mind the good stuff is something one has to actually earn, which is more likely for me to actually try to RP getting the things. As for ammo... It kinda sucks in my view, as some RP I would like to do (Practicing shots with fellow Metrocops) would become way harder to execute now, especially if what my lad gets affects everyone else. I tend to have weapons as passiveRP tools, or at least involve them in my ideas. Hell, I remember once having some marksmanship practice and a small competition WW3RP because we ICly (and OOCly) liked the sniper, even if the bullets were expensive as hell.
Only concern of myself is actually running out of guns and getting to miss out event stuff because I cannot have a weapon, even if it is crappy in the first place and I am not fond of just throwing my lad into a meatgrinder with some knife over there. So, if that actually addressed as to give everyone a fighting chance, then I am not complaining.
