Takes about a year for an individual to memorize the names and faces of 200 people though. But they're always changing and many very similar due to limited options. But would fix a lot of problems like MG and Non-Roleplay things . People should start to remember peoples face and more focus on RP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell I was even farming once and randomly had an officer come up to me and tell me I need to pay my fines or I'll be arrested, it was only the once it happened that blatantly though. So yeah, I also thing the police MDC should be done via full name only. When we run someone's license plate, it's with the MDC. That's likely what is happening when you see that. Also happens IRL. That's not metagaming your ID. Anytime you have an interaction with a cop they have likely aliased you, so if I see you farming and I know your name, I might look you up by the name I've remembered you by (I wasn't the one that approached you on the farm). Same if you've gone to impound to get your car, you may have been aliased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alias shouldn't show up from 60 feet away But you can recognise people from 60 feet away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The alias system is damn near MG in some cases Well your suggestion is going from one extreme to another, GTA doesn't have enough distinguishable face features to make it easy to recognise people like IRL so I don't think it would work.

This is absolutely true. There are not enough ways to fully customize your character model to basically remove the need for /alias and IDs. Even from my own personal experience I was confused with another person for my first couple months on the server because we just looked way too similar.

I agree with this also furthermore this would take away from the secure and ease of ability to track players from a staff point of view and also reporting other players. It may sound good in theory but ultimately not a implementable idea that would work in actual situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
