Right now when you go on duty your automatically equipped with all weapons for your division/rank. Can we make it so we can choose which weapons to equip? Main reason being is that I don't want to RP with a shotgun slung over my shoulder every day I'm on patrol at every call. Further to that - Can we make it so PD weapons can be stored in PD vehicles? I.e. shotgun etc

Pick a radio frequency and share it with all the truckers - Problem solved

Yeah but when those cars got impounded they couldn't release em without paying the fines lol

That's good - That means you'll make a risk assessment and decide whether it's worth running or paying the ticket.

Don't be so sure about that I've caught people going that fast. And when we have the helicopter up that'll usually just follow you without you even knowing until you stop somewhere and then a police car pops outta nowhere and arrests you for reckless driving and suspends your licence

You say the risk far outweighs any rewards, yet people still chop cars to make money. The proof is in the pudding right there. Your risk assessment of the situation might be that the risks are too high to chop cars but there are plenty of others willing to run the gauntlet. The ones who haven't planned their chopping operation will get either arrested or killed by gang members. The ones who have planned it, will likely get away with it. It's not hard to get away with chopping cars, you've just got to plan it. Same goes for any other crime.

No one forces you to commit crime and go to jail...but jail is a consequence of committing crime. The higher the stakes the higher the risk...thats the nature of the game. You choose what risk you want to take and you gamble on it..sometimes you win and get away sometimes you lose and go to jail. 120min is the maximum jail time...so you gotta really do serious shit to go for 120min i.e. shoot at cops. If you steal a car and the cops pull you over and you comply...its only about 75min. You choose to run you MIGHT get away but you might get 120min. Risk vs reward its that simple. Get some prison roleplay going.

Disagree that it should only be in alley ways. We dont have enough people walking down alley ways. If people are dumb enough to rob someone in front of Mors...then theres a good chance they'll be caught.

-1 Too easily abused You can still roleplay it though and if the other player powergames post a complaint.

-1 I get pretty annoyed with people parking their cars in NCZ's to avoid getting the car stolen. It clutters up the area. Stealing cars should be exempt from NCZ's

When im not responding to 911 calls I am a hard ass on traffic duty. I dish out hefty tickers for speeders and I always give a demerit point..or suspend drivers licenses. Cops do their best enforcing traffic law. More cops would be a plus.

-1 Robberies are an unfortunate event but they are a challenge to the game and you need to deal with that. Plan your day out...have friends with you...carry a gun...don't carry lots of cash or items on you. Be smart.

-1 120min allows you plenty of time to get some prison roleplay going. Engage with other prisoners...form alliances and friendships. Prison does need more script support..FatherOsborn already has made a suggestion to improve prison RP but use the time to roleplay as a prisoner.

Desync can be a real issue. If they hit your truck doing 250kmph on their screen they'd stall no doubt

Need the ability to revive prisoners too

Well not just criminal but if someone wants to report a crime we can ACTUALLY take a report and store it on their record so we can look it up later and use it later. I.e. if we take a report for a robbery and we get a good description of the offender, property taken, etc etc it all can go in the victim's record.

Can we please make it so we can add freetext reports to a persons record? These reports could be used to record a variety of information including: Arrest reports Crime reports Witness reports Victim reports Field Contacts (A short narrative detailing suspicious circumstances a person is found to be in but not enough evidence to charge with a crime) Person warning reports (i.e. Violence towards officers, carries automatic weapons etc) Known associates Vehicles Addresses or frequented places Dossier The freetext report should support 1000 characters and when you click on it it can expand out. Surely this would be easy to add. It would certainly open up ALOT of opportunities for police to build criminal profiles through in-game means rather than the forums.

As the title says - You can't mute the siren sound by pressing Q on the Riot truck

Plenty of police forces IRL have smartphone apps to access records - Only makes sense

I didn't even realize - Well thats ALOT worse than I thought. Seriously the management of this server need to get on top of that ASAP

Can we make it so you can access the MDC from your mobile phone if you're a cop?

16k does seem high - Tell me your character name and Ill look into it for you. With that said though...16k isnt too hard to make if you chop cars - Just dont get caught

Can we make it so we can toggle clothing anywhere - I.e. remove shirt, remove pants, shoes, glasses etc? Kinda annoying that I can't take my glasses off when I want to.

As I'm sure many of you have noticed, it's very difficult to get an ambulance nowadays when you get injured. In fact it is rare for an ambulance to turn up. Quite often there are time where there are no LSEMS on whatsoever and cops are left to fill in by taking people to hospital. When I checked the member count last night there was only 29 people in the EMS. I've been told that LSEMS struggles because the roleplay you get as a medic is boring, thankless and sometimes repetitive and therefore people don't want to apply. In any case, the current situation simply is NOT good enough. I'm not entirely sure what the exact cause or causes are for the lack of members or activity, but it MUST change. If it's an issue getting people into the faction why not: Simplify the recruitment process making it easier for people to join? Give well respected roleplayers an invitation without application & first rank on an alt character which could be roleplayed as a "Qualified lateral transfer from another medical department". Live recruitment - Skip the forum application and regularly host recruitment drives in game Yes these ideas may INITIALLY sacrifice some quality in the members but people can always be trained. Also I'd rather have a slightly lesser quality of medic than no medic at all. If there is a player retention issue in the faction how about: Giving faction members greater choice of vehicles without having to be in x/y/z division or x/y/z rank - Allow everyone in the faction to use the helicopter, granger, firetruck etc and let them pick the vehicle they wish to use based on the type of roleplay they seek thus making the faction more enjoyable. More money Hire more people so medics aren't over worked and by themselves Development ideas: Make the plastic surgery something that has to be done by the LSEMS faction in the same way that cars have to be modified by mechanics. Fire - We have fire trucks, lets have fire! House fires, car fires, we need fires for firefighters! Road crash rescue - If there is at least 2 medics online, make it so that if you get into a high speed crash there is a chance you become "trapped" in the vehicle and that a firefighter would need to extricate you from the vehicle using the jaws of life (hydraulic spreaders / cutters). The fire truck would need to be next to the firefighter to use the jaws of life. Getting back on topic - The server can't function with 250+ players online and no medics. WE NEED MORE MEDICS FAST. It's not good enough, and the first direction I look toward is the leadership of the LSEMS not fulfilling their obligation to get and retain enough faction members. /endrant

Sounds like bad luck to me - That's the game though! Risk versus reward, that's what makes it fun!
