Requiem

Video game that simulates real life and is balanced as such. You are free to go play the new COD if you just want to shoot and have balance with the opposing side. It's not a joke at all. It doesn't take nearly 15 bullets to eliminate 200 AP and 100 HP. As I have mentioned previously, I have been headshot while wearing SWAT armor and have been taken down in 2 shots, both headshots. So sounds like a skill issue buddy. Secondly, if you make the decision to try to win a gunfight with a SWAT team, you are asking for the 5 hours in DOC. Make better choices. Not everything in this server has to be about gunfights.

Thanks for the insight, but respectfully I can safely say I have more experience with shootouts in PD than you, especially in SWAT where we have different weapons are armor levels. As I already mentioned, there should be clarification from a script side if the people being shot in the head were influenced by being present in a NCZ. There may be something in place that lowers the damage due to this. This isn't an FPS game, its a RP server. If you would like to find an example of some criminals having even a small chance of beating a SWAT team IRL, please be my guest. To make an argument to say we should balance as if its an FPS isn't correct. PD is supposed to be stronger than crims.

I take back my prior statement. I have had multiple issues in that past couple of weeks where I fail when its perfectly in the middle of the green. It won't be on the first couple of hits either, it will be the last 5-10 out of 50 where it fails.

+1 Fix the freelance job issue so that roadworker job isn't the only viable thing and everything else will get better, this included.

To add on to this suggestion, maybe in the future a type of "heist" system like in GTA online could be added where crims could setup a jewelry store robbery, or take down a money transport truck, but it would be a larger scale heist that requires a lot of preplanning and could give opps to both crims and LEOs. Make it high risk but really high reward.

+1 More flexibility of positions in stores overall would be cool. Maybe add more to the store in general, so rather than just putting in an order for restocking, you also have to set it up in the store like "stocking the shelves". Maybe allow a player to work the register rather than just the NPC.

+/- 1 I agree with the idea, but I don't think it will matter at the end of the day. More than likely, if they got added, someone with 40m in the bank that plays once a week would buy it, log on long enough to restock, and log back off as with most other player owned stores in the server. The issues with non-active players owning stores should be addressed first IMO.

+1 As mentioned, no reason for a civilian to have access to bulletproof cars. Restrict these to government VIP's (commissioners) and/or SWAT.

-1 from me. In the current server state, I don't feel this is needed. It already takes quite some time to break into a car now with the new minigame system and player vehicle thefts are way less frequent than they used to be.

The script portion of your suggestion is reasonable, but I believe the rest of your suggestion sounds like it should be an IC thing to be honest. This is something you could recommend to either the police department or the government in character. To the suggestion here tho, the intention of the roadworker job was to have players not only clean up the incident thats blocking traffic, but also set down blockades and traffic markers to self direct traffic so it does not require police intervention. While I like your thinking in giving players more RP opps, most officers likely wouldn't like the idea of doing traffic control on these scenes as they would find it boring. To your point about the script changes, LEO's actually can see these incident calls come in already as it is now. They actually go to the medical/fire department by default from the "dispatch" system in the script, but Law enforcement is able to look in the list of current calls and see those.

I don't think its fair to put down a blanket statement saying LEOs don't want to RP. There are plenty of LEOs that heavily RP and go out of there way to create RP opportunities. You will always come across players who have lower RP standards regardless of they faction or group they may belong to in the server, but that doesn't mean everyone else has the same RP standard. As an LEO myself, I come across crim's everyday that are either doing a bunch of Non RP actions or are just salty with the L, but that doesn't mean all crims show the same level of RP. I have RP'd with some crims that create some great RP opps and are really fun to play with. TL;DR, there will always be people who have lower RP standards, don't sterotype one group unfairly. If you DO have issues with a certain faction's RP, I recommend taking it to that groups faction leader(s) and/or if its a legal faction, take it up with the Legal Faction Management team. Complaining about someones RP on the forums won't get you anywhere.

Expected behavior: The car should just push and not send the character and vehicle 30 feet in the air.

+1 Would be cool to have functional furniture and customization.

There is another open suggestion to change vehicle storage capacity based on the vehicle size. If thats what this thread is for, I would take your suggestion over to there.

+1

-1 I like the creativity, but its too expensive of an option and no one would realistically carry a laptop around with them soley for group chatting when they have a phone in their pocket.

+1

I think this is what RP is for. Use /me or /do when hiding items other places and RP this with someone who is looking in the vehicle. I can't speak for others, but as a LEO, whenever I search someones vehicle, I always RP getting in and searching around the seats, console area, glovebox, etc.

+1

+1 More flexibility is always better!

+1 !!

+1 !!!

Agreed with the above suggestions as to linking a description to the character to do a command to read it. I feel like having /do attached to your character following you around would be tacky and distracting.

Mall implemented today. Have more faith in the devs
