I don't disagree with this at all. I would probably make a case against ramming the barricades also if their render distance wasn't so low even if you drive the speed limit, you still can't react in time. You bring up very good points. Edited June 3, 2019 by TheCanadian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCanadian Posted June 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 5 hours ago, alexalex303 said: How is it not an argument? It makes perfect sense in the fact that the LSPD is missing other features that makes real-life enforcement easier/stronger such as (working) spike strips, the ability to cause traffic breaks, cameras that actually record stuff, etc. The fact that certain things are missing from the game, and the LSPD is given other advantages in the context of the game is completely logical, unless you are arguing in bad faith and wish to say that LSPD shouldn't have anything that isn't realistic but at the same time criminals can shoot cops and get out of jail within 2 hours. Is that realistic? Please don't purposefully quote me out of context. During the whole reply I was quoting someone who was saying that the lack of NPCs make it difficult to do maneuvers/operations (or whatever is the proper term) PD would execute IRL. I was stating that it seems his issue is with rage rather than the suggestion posted here and what you quoted was me saying that just because IRL PD is stronger and there are civilians driving around it shouldn't be a reason to keep insanely unrealistic indestructible barricades in the server as an advantage to make people use them in unrealistic ways.

BellamyJames Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 +1 Just a civilian here, I don't like crime but I don't think you should be able to stopped this easy, It's just a brick wall, it's not RP if you're not given a fighting chance.

Jasmine Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 Removes barricades, make it so if you smash into a police car you stall instantly. Also make hitting poles and other objects stall or screw up the car making it harder to drive. Also require massive repair bills, or higher insurance costs when you wreck you cars over and over.

Just because you don't go 240 in your comet retro does not mean that I'm speed glitching.. you can easily hit 240 on that part of the highway...

This sounds extremely OP too. keep the mechanics how they currently are, just fix barricades. Otherwise if you make it so that people stall instantly when hitting a cop car it can lead to some very unrealistic maneuvers also. (i.e getting in front and desync brake checking, instantly stalling the other, or pd pit maneuvering them and they stall because of contact with the cop car) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cant be for realism, because no criminal would rob somone for fish then speed away at 150 MPH smashing into lightpoles, curbs, bushes, barriers and anything else in their way with their 200k sports cars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on how you were suggesting it be implemented. you said 'make it so if you smash into a police car you stall instantly. ' which to me would be when making contact with a police car the other driver would stall while the PD car wouldn't be harmed. when smashing at very high speeds on immobile objects, you already stall instantly unless desync comes into play (which it frequently does). Having people stall when they make contact with a PD cruiser could make PD use theirs as a wrecking ball. i think a good in between can be found 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
37hh Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 +1, Personally if any of these scenes re-create themselves, I'll be using the wooden destructible barriers, to make it fair on both sides. Hopefully some more items can be added via rage, and spike strips fixed properly, then you won't have to worry about this at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are here to suggest the PD remove those barriers because they are NON-RP, as in real life you could smash through them. Fair enough, IRL you could. And to prove a point, you give us a video of you driving a million dollar+ supercar to conduct your criminal business in. I applaud your sense of humor. How can you come here and make suggestion after suggestion to regulate the PD and make it more realistic, while you and your whole gang drive multi-million dollar supercars as your daily drivers? How broken of a reality do you live in where the current PD is considered NON-RP, and your gang of murderers in supercars is realistic? Before you come here and complain about anything to do with PD and realism, lose the supercars and roleplay a realistic criminal, not one that daily drives million dollar supercars with no regards to value. You can't have one side regulated and modeled after real life and then go out with your buddies to recreate a 5-year-olds lucid dreams. Quite a bit of sass from this one. Did you wake up like this or is there something else boiling that you need to express? Anyway +1 on the post, 100% agree with disallowing these things to be abused and used as brick walls, PD has a ton of things at their disposal to deal with catching criminals, that should not be one of them.
