aka121 Posted March 22, 2025 Report Posted March 22, 2025 In real life when someone is held at gunpoint especially by police they still have the ability to run away This doesn’t mean the officer will immediately shoot as law enforcement must justify the use of deadly force. Police can and do shoot fleeing suspects if they can articulate that the person posed a significant danger However in many cases officers might choose not to fire due to factors like bystanders lack of a clear shot or the situation not warranting deadly force Applying this to the server if an unarmed player is held at gunpoint by police they should have the option to flee or surrender rather than being forced into compliance The officer’s weapon should serve as an intimidation tool rather than an automatic means of forcing obedience reflecting the realistic uncertainty of whether an officer would actually fire.

Demonmit1 Posted March 22, 2025 Report Posted March 22, 2025 (edited) Fear Roleplay is the concept of showing appropriate care and concern to preserve your character's safety and life. We aim for balanced gameplay through this rule, and it may not be representative of real life at times. 9/10 times a crim breaks fearRP in a LEO situation, its the thought process of, "im going to go to jail anyways, might as well try and drop at least one" when you're surrounded by 10 cops holding you up. you have a gun to you, and you dont respect that, you're not fearing for your life. DM rules apply to both Law enforcement and Crim, both ways. you have a gun to your head, you dont obey, law enforcement have every right to drop you then and there by the rules. I'd consider supporting a change to the fearRP rules the moment crims start complying after being tased 20 times. maybe we give taser the ability to do 50 damage, so 2 shots and you're down, but dont have a bleed out timer, it just forces you into a stabilized state? how many posts till this gets locked and archived? lol EDIT: real solution is to buff tazers: Edited March 22, 2025 by Demonmit1 1 Quote

Demonmit1 Posted March 22, 2025 Report Posted March 22, 2025 Making when and where fearRP counts and doesnt count is just overall a bad idea. fearRP being situational doesnt work, especially when half the people on the server dont follow the rules as they are now. if you have a gun to you, you fear for your life, doesnt matter if its a cop or a gang banger.

Harveyyy Posted March 22, 2025 Report Posted March 22, 2025 Rules apply to everyone for balancing purposes. Also, what makes you think the cop won't shoot you? In my book, if you run away, i'll shoot you. Also, aren't you banned for ban evading? This shouldn't concern you.. Quote

aka121 Posted March 22, 2025 Author Report Posted March 22, 2025 eh harveyy im indeed banned but i can still talk about the things i think it should change its true that you may not know, the cop may shoot you but they also may not shoot you so i feel like instead of the cops directly shooting someone they should first give clear warning shots and here the fear rp should apply instead of just being held at gunpoint and be scared and not be able to do anything 2 minutes ago, Harveyyy said: Rules apply to everyone for balancing purposes.
