Proximo Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 What you want to see? - Stop having it where criminals can "strip" someone's weapons and comms during a mugging, the point of it is to be quick so that units coming to it can respond, of course if the person blatantly says "Help" on radio or some shit they die. People should have to try to sneak a message to their comrades' their in danger instead of their guns and weapons just being gone for 20 seconds Why should we add it? - More RP, alot more danger to mugging What are the advantages of having this? -Mugging is somewhat dangerous and needs to be fast.

Mr. Rob Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 -support main reason is the fact that players don't know if cops press there panic buttons unless there was an animation / sound effect then maybe this could work SWAT ON TOP Retired: PD LT 1L57 | S.W.A.T.

Jbane56 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 (edited) I'll edit this later if I formulate an opinion on this, however right now I mostly lean towards -support because if this were to he implemented, cops can just say "I'm being mugged at (10-20)" on radio and just ruin the entire experience of the mugging. Instead I think the mugging player should have to request the other person to give/drop their weapons and radio(if applicable) via /me. And that's their opportunity to get help is before they have to drop it. At that point it would be failrp if they already dropped their radio and then call for help. This would make mugging more entertaining and add a little spice to it instead of everyone's adverts just automatically stripping you of everything that helps. Current example: "Mug drop 30k in 10s or die! (Comms smashed/weapons stripped)" Example I'm proposing: "MUG 30K, DROP RADIO IN 10S OR DIE. REACHING FOR WEAPON IS KOS(panic jammed)" or something along those lines. I think the player being mugged needs to drop their radio/weapons via /me before they give the money. Also gives a longer opportunity for another government to see what's happening when they're driving around and possibly help their battle buddy. Adding more risk to a mug and makes the crim want to find a discreet spot to perform the mug. Edited August 27, 2023 by Jbane56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, there could be a message in chat that says PLAYER pressed his panic. Edited August 27, 2023 by David RETIRED! Ex 2iC of Shadow Legacy Ex S.W.A.T.

[GL] Locus Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 -Support Tbh it hasn't been an issue at all for years so I don't get the issue. I feel like maybe yes an animation would be cool but a sound effect or chat message wouldn't make sense as that can be meta gamed.

Tactical Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 - support i feel like this rule does not need to be changed as it works well with the system as stated above when a cop is being surrounded by multiple people there gonna pull there panic or say something on radio i feel it makes both crim and gov fair $500+ Donator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
