Yet another topic about roleplay & cops n robbers

it’s literally not possible for a few patrol deputy with a Glock to catch a group of 7 fully armed individuals ransacking the county in mcclarens

Takes like 50 hours of work as a SCSO deputy to get an SRT lmao

doesnt defeat the fact that overall, cops have the advantage vs criminals

yea ure not wrong

Please explain to me how cops have an advantage over criminals aside from them being issued free glocks (of course with the exception of tactical agencies)

Still waiting on how cops are advantaged

This is coming from a criminal so it may seem partially biased, however I’m sure even LEOs will agree.

  1. LEOs often abuse server/client ping with their spikes on the ram bar just so they can disable vehicles in chases. Not to mention that some cops spike your tires whilst you’re stationary.

  2. Game Mods are very lenient to LEOs when found in violation of game rules versus how a criminal is handled.

  3. Not sure on the specifics of utilizing the baton to eject you from your vehicle, but often times the LEOs will car surf (against game rules) & baton you out whilst going at a moderate speed (game mods do nothing).
    I’m not complaining about the system because I understand that there has to be some way to get civilians out of their vehicle, but this should not be allowed.

  4. Tasers. Not the tool, but the poorly made system. Cops are able to tase snipe criminals which is EXTREMELY unfair and idiotic if you ask me & should be labeled as FRP. Not to mention the fact that they have an unlimited number of cartridges & no cooldown.
    If we are being realistic, the taser prongs would only be able to reach a maximum of 15 feet.

Also, to go back at your original response,

Being outnumbered really isn’t an advantage, it can be resolved by paging a tactical unit… Also, 7 people in mcmarens is highly unlikely.

  1. Cops being able to camp & arrest at CD. The entire concept in itself is just very stupid. I believe this is the only game I’ve played that allows this.
    Cops should know that they can’t arrest their suspect 100% of the time, but most Firestone cops have extremely high & fragile egos and can’t let just 1 suspect escape, so they camp CD to get the arrest. (not sure why Fed allows & encourages this, the game is “extreme roleplay”)

I’m not saying that criminals don’t have any advantages, but saying that cops don’t have advantages is extremely untrue, and to be honest, cops have more significant advantages. I will be sure to let you know when I think of some other ones.

sorry that i partake in sports & i dont stare at forums all day

Sometimes it works, personally I’ll ignore ambushers just to run up and kill the robber.

Secondly atleast you admit ya’ll use fake hostages, so I don’t feel bad when I refuse to comply with hostage negotiations, it’s dumb tac units have to undertake training on negotiating and they don’t make it past the demands phase without being ambushed even when they want to rp, if ya’ll dont want to rp then theres no right to complain when cops dont either

i think you are discounting the fact that not only American players play the game and it is not like I will move to America to play firestone at a lower ping rate. i get your point but it is too bad how the internet functions.

that is a rule violation that can be reported to moderation which can result in moderation action

please send proof of such

car surfing is indeed not allowed + moving at a moderate speed and batoning out is ALREADY not allowed. if the mods don’t do anything send proof of both the cop frping and the moderator not attending to your request so cuxle can handle it

sorry 7 year old tasers hahahahaha but I agree and get your point, but the taser system is shit and laggy so it makes up for being able to tase from 2000 studs. btw the taser cartridge only fires like 2 seconds after the click is registered (cause of server lag and old af scripts I assume)

this is definitely not the only game which allows this. infact, firestone is more strict by the fact that you cannot arrest someone once they have spawned into the game after joining (I believe it applies if you have a warrant as well since we have to give “a chance of escape”). other games like ridgeway or Mayflower do not have any rules against spawn arresting whereas that is the only rule firestone has, so you are wrong on that aspect.

you were literally online at the time i posted that :skull:

this doesn’t help whatsoever when 99% of the criminals run around in mcclarens and demons

completely subjective, saw 2 LEOs get banned literally 2 days ago for cuff rush in the short hour I was online

Then report it to moderation?

It is EXTREMELY, and I mean EXTREMELY hard to properly land a taser shot. What typically ends up happening is we end up tasting EACH OTHER because of the poorly made system. Literally all you have to do is run in zigzags and it will be almost impossible to get tased

So criminals should just be allowed to run around and ransack the county with the ability to just open fire if they don’t wanna go to jail for 10 minutes?

I mean, i was a criminal for 3 years and have been a LEO for around a year and a half, and I can 100% confirm the game is more advantaged towards criminals

this majorly. it’s pretty much impossible to ever hope of earning enough to buy a car, and i’ve played this game plenty.

i barely have 1000 dollars, and i’ve played firestone since 2020-ish. its ridiculous i need to find something to do for an entire day in firestone (which often doesn’t have that many people in the servers without something going) if i wish to even upgrade to the next car from the starter car.

ive been playing since 2019… it’s not that hard . . .

Then again, I can’t speak for all criminals.
Smart ones will use fake hostages as it’s the only way to escape, however there are also times where it’s a mixture of real & fake, so just breaching in would still jeopardize innocent lives

hey . . . just cause I use actual hostages for the sake of realism and to preserve rp, doesn’t mean im dumb . . . not to mention i have actual realistic sits and keep things realistic for the most part . . .

if you use consistently use fake hostages you have no room to speak on tactical units rushing scenes

that is a LIE!!!

Some departments, like DOJ, don’t pay. Being a lawyer requires a client base, and in order to get a client base, you have to get clients, people don’t like paying for legal services in general. It’s hard to make money as a ro-lawyer. I also work for public works, but that still doesn’t pay much. I’m planning on playing this game until it shuts down, and i dont know if ill ever have a supercar.
