big -1 for this, there simply arent enough medics. As it is, even when there is medics online, there are far too many calls for them to cope, why would you take away the ability for cops to help the dying and injured when there are no medics online? Once you triple the number of medics working for MD, then perhaps, but right now its a bad idea. Again, a bit -1 for this from me, there arent enough medics, so to have one turn up on a scene, on a motorbike, where they wont be able to transport patients, does not make any sense. Again perhaps once there are a lot more medics. I dont see the need for this really.... You have to travel 2 blocks to get to PD to run a background check

+1 I know eventually that the whole criminal faction system will change, but in the mean time something like this would be good to prevent the pointless wars which have recently been happening, and would ensure that the faction actually knows about the war without having to be online when its declared or checking the diplomacy tab regularly, which has been happening to us a lot lately. In my opinion, if the leaders of a faction dont know why the war is happening, then there's not really a valid reason for war. War should be a last resort, not the first port of call just because what you actually want is to take a turf. War should also include some actual RP interaction rather than just trying to take turf.

Great idea, but it is something the server and administration staff have been working on already. The delay with this being implemented, is due to us having a very small development team and the priority has been on the switch to RAGE and then fixing the bugs present in RAGE. this is the post where it was previously announced. I dont know if they are still planning to do it in exactly the same way as described in that post or not, just wanted to let you know that this is something already in the works

@nateX is right, this isnt an example of why cops need reduced armour, simply an example of one cop breaking protocol and acting foolish in a way which gets him killed....

To an extent I do agree with you, There are large sections of people on the server who just do bad RP and a lot of it is due to lack of alternative, like the people who get bored and just want to get into cop chases. The main thing I wanted to comment on here though, is point 3, and in particular the video you reference. What happened in that video is completely unacceptable, and all of the people involved in the incident have already been punished for it on an IC/OOC level by myself as the leader of their faction, after the video was shown to me, and the other leaders, by another member of the faction who was disgusted at this level of RP. We do indeed need criminals to not let them sink themselves to the standards displayed in that video, which is the reason why I issued them punishments for it, because aside from the fact its breaking server rules, its just piss poor RP and not how anyone, let alone someone new to the server, should be treated. I also got in contact with the guy responsible, apologizing for it, and doing what i could to make it up to him, and made it clear to every member of my faction that we expect a lot more from them and wont tolerate that level of RP. It should also be noted that the guy came back to the server after cooling off, and is now having a great time on the server and appreciated the members of the community who stepped up to try and rectify what was undoubtedly a disgraceful thing to happen to him. Im not trying to defend or disagree with any of your points here, just wanted to clarify that there are people who are actively trying to prevent this kind of thing from happening and to try and elevate the level of RP displayed by criminals on the server. Though that is often made more difficult by frequent interactions with the sort of player who just wants to troll and grief people.

Date and time (provide timezone): 13:44 on 02/04/18 Character name: Tavi Patronus Issue/bug you are reporting: When you try and put ammo in any weapons, the ammo just disapears and doesnt go into the weapon. It used to be that you had to scroll through weapons to get it back, but that no longer works Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate:

This happens even if you dont move when you enter the prison. People keep loosing prisoners this way. Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate: Just go in the prison

I think it would be useful to be able to set a message of the day for Faction Members to see when they login. This could be used for many things, such as notifying people of important faction info, like dates of events, rule changes, reminders of something they are supposed to be doing, or even just to inform them of a new policy or to check a certain discord/forum for a piece of info. For example, Weazel could make use of it to remind members they are getting close to article deadlines, MD could use it to inform people of who is looking for training, Police could use it for any number of useful aids like informing people of rule change, or protocol change, or simply to remind people to check active Bolos. I know we have the forums, but its easy to miss info on there, same with Discord servers, especially for people like myself who are part of far too many discord servers and dont check all of them frequently enough. I know i have members in some of the servers im part of who rarely look and so wouldn't notice announcements made there, but if the announcement is actually in game when you login, people are more likely to see and remember This is potentially also useful for the server to have one set by admins, so they can remind/inform people about things as they login. I know admins can send Server Wide announcements already, and people can Bleet if they have VIP or use Weazel, but it would be useful for admins to be able to remind people of things on login occasionally.

-1 as well, you start going down this route, then you also need every criminal to stop crashing into things which would total a car IRL and then keep on driving, which lets be honest, just isnt going to happen. As much as we are trying to RP real life, this is still a game, and some things aren't going to be 100% realistic. The damage a vehicle can take, the damage a person can take, the amount of shots it takes to actually hit half the time, are all things which are part of the game mechanic, and so arent going to be RP'd by everyone to the same degree. If you start insisting police RP it to a much higher standard than 90% of the criminals they chase (which tbf a lot of them already do) then their chances of ever catching someone gets pretty slim.

+1 the numbers need some careful consideration to ensure it’s not ridiculous amounts as others have said, but I think the idea is great!

Ill miss you bro :(

+1 this would be awesome

@NobodyLTU i hate to keep bugging you, but please can i get some help with this? @harmdone

Depends where you apply, but gyrhnr but some places will still take you if you have a good application and can demonstrate you know how to rp

i think this would be awesome, ive been planning to start doing some 'Day in the life of' type things on my Weazel character, the difficulty with doing it with PD is because we need to be in proximity to our van, we wouldnt get paid whilst doing this. Id also love for Weazel to get news helicopters, so they could cover police chases and things, which would lend itself well to this type of show

Thank you @WoogeTV for replying! Here is a screenshot of my Panel showing all 4 cars, My house showing that I only have 2, The Contender and the T20, and then from Mors you can see the Rhapsody and then me using /showveh which shows only the T20 i used to drive to Mors. 1) I put the house up for sale after taking out the T20 and Contender, but it just let me put it up for sale, it didnt say anything about a car still being parked there. 2) I only have keys to one other house, and I went to check and it wasnt parked there sadly. 3) I gave Mr Wick keys to my house and he parked his schafter inside, when he did so he could only see my T20 there (I had taken my Contender out) and when he withdrew it, the Coquette was still not there. 4) Im not sure how best to replicate it, Ive been using the house continuously since I lost my coquette, With a T20, a Schafter (which i have now sold to Tim Wick) and a contender. Hopefully some of this helps, let me know if you have any other ideas.

I only have one house unfortunately, and when i do /stats it shows i own 4 vehicles, so the Coquette is included in that number

nope, still waiting for @NobodyLTU or @harmdone or @Toony or @BallinByNature or anyone really to acknowedge this :(

yeah weve already tried capping both available turfs, theyre both bugged at the moment so you cant get them

The one downside to that idea @braindead is it implies that the staff would actually spend time in the voice chat. The exiled Discord has 5 admins in, including Ballin, but that doesn't mean they spend a lot of their time sat in the voice channels. As for the Metagaming aspects of this, whilst it is true that people will be tempted to metagame if they are in a discord, they are still human beings with a free will, if they do metagame then that is their choice. Even if they weren't in discord, there are still plenty of ways people can metagame. I spend most of my time in discord when im playing, not because im doing so with the intention of metagaming, but because a lot of the people i regularly play with are my friends, not just in game friends, but actual friends, several of whom i came to Ecclipse with the express purpose of playing with them. Even if Im playing something other than Eclipse, which admittedly i dont do much of lately, i would still be sat in discord with those people, and i wouldnt really want to play if i couldnt. What i do have though is a hotkey set up to mute discord if im getting into a situation when there are multiple people online. If theres only a couple of us, and its not particularly noisy then i often wont bother, I have push to talk on for discord, so they cant hear me unless im trying to tell them something. Thats not to say at times i havent accidentally held down in game push to talk instead of discord push to talk and vice versa, but we are all only human

I have XD
