The way properties work has never changed, they cost a big chunk of money and return that amount in payouts in something like an hour.
For new players they are really hard to find, when I first joined in '07 I had to spam regulars/admins about the location of the thing they just bought. Nowadays we have /properties which is a 27 page list of names, prices and earnings.
I think that some way has to be thought of how players can find properties, maybe they receive an map (texdrawn, possible right?) with some pinpoints of cheap properties around LV. Maps could be bought at 24/7 and accessible trough /propmap. Maybe the pinpoints could be streamed onto the SA ingame map (without the streamer leaving out the ones to far away).
Maybe hints about locations could be found (hidden package) or bought (24/7) or won (lottery).
The goal of the properties should be to provide an profitable and fulfilling element into the game so that players can fill their bank account to buy weapons, or just to max their bank.
Also, what do you think about reintroducing interest on bank accounts? Giving an 150mil+ account interest isn't my goal, but new players that have shown interest(the other kind) into LVP should be rewarded and given an little push to keep playing. Interest should only be given when an player is ingame and from 1mil till ?25mil.
