    It was removed because it wasn't working and will supposedly be back if its fixed so its a valid question.

    Personally, I am against it coming back. If every officer online rolled on most banks that happen now with an MK and level 3 vest the rebels wouldn't stand much of a chance. And before someone goes off with the "Oh you are an LT and get an MK anyway so what do you care if others get one", think about it. If you are robbing the bank with 7 people all with MKs and there are 10 officers and those 10 officers all come with an MK the numbers just tipped in favor of the APD. Yes, skill comes into play, but if the cops severely outnumber the rebels at the bank and everyone has equal firepower the cops should win. If the cops win every time, where is the fun for the rebels? People are already complaining about the balance between officers and rebels. I see swat coming back and giving everyone an MK as just another thing to swing the balance towards the APD. 

    A solution? Bring swat back, but give everyone rank based weaponry. Everyone gets a level 3 vest. Constables get an MX, Corporals, and Sergeants get an MXM and LTs and Captains gets an MK. This way there is an advantage to swat other than the strider, but you don't have the entire APD rolling around with MKs.

    Of course, any change to swat would require code, though if it is to come back at all it requires work on the part of the devs.

     

    TLDR: swat coming back the same would make cops more powerful, if it comes back give the officer the weapon they would normally (be able to have) on patrol.

    Would the name antilla the rapist be allowed, this question can't be answered by bazzajack

    Thx

    I am not going to sit here and try to write a list of names which are/are not appropriate. Just keep in mind as an APD officer you are held to a higher standard then other players. Any action you take which reflects negatively upon yourself and/or the APD may result in disciplinary action.

    The situation:

     

    Two UN-NAMED individuals are taken hostage by rebels and brought to a certain rebel outpost.

    One is a cadet by default.

    The rebels that took them currently land in an orca with a total count of two.

    The orca somehow gets damaged and is inoperable.

    The rebels make a deal to unrestrain one if they'll impound the orca.

    The one unrestrained downs one of them, the other one kills the non-cadet officer ( :) ) and then gets downed by the cadet.

    The final situation is a cadet alone at rebel with two restrained subjects.

     

    The question:

    Are other officers allowed to head over to rebel outpost to assist the cadet in bringing back the suspects from rebel outpost?

    As the cadet would be unable to transport the two suspects out of rebel outpost himself, yes you would be allowed to assist the cadet.

  4. I will never forget the 8 hours we spent trying to get ahold of my uncle who worked down the street from the towers. He was on the biggest business call in the company's history when the first plane hit. He hung up on the guy saying a plane just hit the World Trade Center. The guy was pissed thinking my uncle was full of shit and called the deal off until he saw the news. Will never forget the fear of not knowing if he was ok or not.

    instead of that I would say any kills within 1k from a cartel & below the freefire zone should give u infamy

    Not a bad idea. Cartels would be easy you can just put a radius on the flag. Kills in the freefire might require putting props under the map to cover the entire freefire island. We all know what more props means....

    I've personally never witnessed somebody go out of their way to disable a vehicle with a flash bang, so I'm not sure if saying it's something that happens all the time is accurate, but perhaps there's a specific instance you're referring to?

    I think this is probably referring to people using flashbangs to blow up orcas at a bank.

     

    Should this be allowed? Personally, I see it as part of the risk of doing a bank. An officer has to be willing to buy 20+ flashbangs (I think that is how many it takes) they then have to get close enough to throw them up on the roof (you didn't kill them before they got there). You also then have all the time it takes them to throw them up there, during that time why not push down and shoot them? There is a delay on how quickly you can throw the same item. Ex. it is faster to throw a white, red, then green smoke then it is to throw 3x white.

    I would be curious to know if you can push the officer before they blow up your orca. Any time I have seen someone use flashbangs to blow up an orca, there has never been an attempt to push the officer. Clearly every situation is different and pushing is not always an option, however, I have seen instances where the officer is completely alone and the nearest officer is on first atm. Push down, out the back, and first never has a shot on you (this is assuming you don't already have someone on a lower level of the bank).

    Just my $0.02 but I don't really think it needs to be banned. There are actions which you can take which would mitigate the cops ability to blow up your orca, I just never see rebels use them.

    That's all fine and dandy, but you're not always going to have the luxury of being on the road / not chased. Can you actually say you'd prefer the Jeep as a getaway vehicle compared to a Qillin?

    Delusional if you do.

    No. I can't, but given that it is changed to the way it is, I guess I will have to live with it? Yes, I know all fine and dandy coming from a career cop. I guess if you wanna say my opinion is void cause of that knock yourself out.

    as for smash and grabs, the only nerf I can think of that won’t completely delete smash and grabs but rather make them harder is if they add fed and bank guard duty(spawn at the nearest hq)  like how there’s the prison guard duty due to how much longer it can take to softlog for people

    I think some kind of option where you have to disable security on the middle, like cutting off the power to the antena (which makes them go on back up power aka hackable) would work. Make it so the perk which gives you a reduced chance of setting off the alarm on domes makes it a reduced chance when cutting the antenna. You would always set off the alarm as soon as you start hacking a dome. Also, you keep the fed cameras so you have a chance of getting spotted by those.

    So punish players who have put enough time into the server to make money to then spend it? That person still gets a bounty, and still runs the risk of getting caught by cops or civs.

    Before I joined the APD and was playing civ with a friend we figured out how to smash and grab in one try. Literally, on our first attempt, we managed to get in get a bar each and get out and make it to rebel and sell. Our escape vehicle? A hatch sport (before bohemia messed with them). If a couple of guys can figure it out and get it on their first attempt that doesn't seem like something you have to put much time into figuring out to me. Yes you still have some risk when it comes to smash and grabbing. I personally think it is less than running meth.

    Sure, big vehicles - but hold on real quick, lemme get robbed or caught by the cops because it's a big vehicle.  Offroad / Jeep? No thanks, I run faster. Hatch Sport? HA.SUV is the only one that could be useful.

    Whats wrong with snatch and grabs? It's high risk high reward like anything else.

    1

    Smash and grabs are not at all high-risk high reward if you know what you are doing. They are actually minimal risk high reward. Often times officers are unable to soft log back to air hq, load in, grab a car and get to the fed before you can get out. The only way you get caught doing it, is if you are really slow, officers happen to be nearby, or there is a helo which can catch up with you.

     

    As for the qulin nerf as @Mitch (IFRIT) said, it isn't so much smash and grabs that was the problem.

    Storage capacity was reduced to mirror the intended use of the vehicle. There are 8 (?) gunner seats that already make it a great asset when fighting etc. However,  it's not intended to be a mobile firing position with a high level of storage capacity. The amount the storage was being used ranked just below the box truck. 

    You have other options, you just need to explore them. This is not the end of your runs, you just need to realize your options. I personally have already found a solution to the qulin capacity nerf that I am happy with. I know not everyone will like the solution I have but it is what it is. I will not hand feed you a solution but I will give you this. http://gaming-asylumwiki.com/wiki/Vehicles give the wiki team time to update the prowler and qulin inventory sizes but the rest are up to date as far as I know.
