    There is a learning curve to it. Most players cant fly if we're being real. The chance of a successful hit has a lot of factors to key in to.

    The hard part is landing, taking off and flying is not the issue

    Corporal is already easy to achieve. Retired status is given because of the time people put into whatever role they were given. Corporal has 0 responsibility other than playtime. Higher ups are able to deal with a situation because they hold a staff rank and are able to deal with it accordingly. If a retired Corporal pulls up and the officer in question refuses to listen, what is he supposed to do? He has no access to apps or any power to do anything. He could report but if the civ made a request he is probably going to report anyways. 

    Corporals also don't have any staff rank, they are still expected to show up to a higher-up request. The whole point is that it shows you have experience and understand the rules, so if only constables are on, you can easily find the ones with the most experience. This would have 0 impact except give a heads up to others you're a constable with experience.

    For the second point of benefits, I'm not asking that all retired corporals have access to mxm's, the retired benefits would still be up to captain discretion and would be given to corporals who are active but don't want to go trough the process of becoming a actual corporal again. For example if I know I will have alot of free time for a couple weeks or months, but then plan on being less active later this would be better then going trough the corporal process which takes a whole month

  3. We should have a "Retired Corporal" tag in-game (the same way we have retired sergeant and lieutenant). This would be a way to show that someone has more experience than others. Even if they do not get any perks it would be a good addition. 

    This would be useful for when there is a higher-up request (better to get a retired corporal than to say no higher-up online)

    This could also open up retired in-game rank perks for corporals who want to take breaks from Arma

    It takes like 30 flashbangs to break a house, it sounds pretty fair to me.

    This is such a dumb APD rule. This does nothing to stop people from camping in a house. For one, the civilian dies 90% of the time, so you blew up the house for nothing and in return and they can just rebuild the house and don't have to go to jail.

    Using 30 flashbang is also dumb because then someone can just steal the 30 flashbangs and then use it against you, this is coming from someone with so much money I don't know what to use it for. Kavala is a NO-GO zone for exactly this reason, not worth going to Kavala when your only way to get a camper is to blow up the house. Its also annoying for new players, imagine you got kidnapped along with 10 people and they just left you in the corner of a house for 10 minutes, the whole apd comes to try and save them, but cant do anything because there is no LT on and the only reason for blowing up a house is if they are shooting form inside of it (nothing says anything about kidnappings).

    Blowing up the house with flashbang is the same as using lethels, but the idiots in the APD always refuse to allow lethels on houses because "just leave the area" or "blow it up". Spoiler alert: that doesn't solve the problem of some guy shooting at random civilians from inside his house since he doesn't have the punishment of jail/ticket

    The waypoint sucks. The real reason is to get the increase. Weird it was never written anywhere though.

    The only good thing about the waypoint is its accurate on height (unless they changed it), This can be used to check if someone is flying in a heli or plane

    Maybe this perk should be changed so instead of the waypoint, you can track people from inside a vehicle. Currently if someone's circle is in the ocean you have no choice but to drop them

  6. How about we remove the rule about being muted when blindfolded, I never understood the rule. Its not like the blindfolded cop can give any information. Only thing it does is make it boring because you cant do anything

  7. giving a 5.56 connected to the worst vehicle in the game to a sergeant which already has access to the spar with drum mag does not sound like a game breaker. Giving it to a corporal would also not really be game breaking due to how bad it is and how bad the scope is

    People use armed vehicles all the time. This might be the most retarded suggestion I’ve ever seen

    I see one maybe once per couple weeks, and I rarely them succeed in killing anyone. Last time I saw the 5.56 vehicle was years ago so you can't even complain that it's op.

    No thanks, last thing i want is @Austin M killing me on bank roof from 600m away in his 50 cal

    You could easily make a guidebook rule against using it at a Federal Event. The main use for armed vehicles would be for HQ defence and against Orcas that auto hover with no fear of being shit down

  9. I think the APD should get more armed vehicles such as

    • MB 4WD 5.56 for APD - CPL+
    • Quillin 6.5 for SGT+
    • 50 Cal for LT+

    Or we could bump it up a rank

    • MB 4WD 5.56 for APD - SGT+
    • Qilin 6.5 for LT+
    • 50 Cal for Captain

    Currently I don't really see any downside to this considering the APD already has the gunboat, In the grand scheme of things, armed vehicles are terrible in general and there is a reason why no one uses them. They could easily be added to the APD, and if any problems arise, Guidebook could be updated to only allow them in certain situations

    • Defend HQ
    • To Disable/Destroy Helicopters/Armored vehicles
    • A Max number can be pulled for each situation

    SGT+ Already has access to a Spar-16S so the MB 4WD would not really be such a bad idea (would allow lower ranked cops to be able to use a machine gun, but with the disadvantage of being stationary and a easy target)

    Once upon a time the APD had 50CALS, I think its time to bring them back (or lower caliber versions)

    TLDR: Not possible to let you have your own voice lines.

    First part would work up until you record your own message. (Its how sirens work) you are just replacing the siren with a voice line and not looping it.

    Everything after that isn't possible. All Clients would have to have the audio file already. its impossible to record a voice line then upload it to their client to be played without a mod. Basically you would be forced to have someone record a bunch of voice lines. Put it in the mission file and play it when needed.

    The only way you would have custom voice would be by essentially making a text to speech inside of arma 3 and no one here is going to do that.

    Maybe you could use the same system as the phone, add everyone to a channel who is nearby, but only the cop can speak (maybe use the thing that disables sidechat microphones for all non-bluefor)

    ive never seen or heard abt anyone use it

    I use it, very useful since you can use it on Ifrits to pull them out, even when they have 4 wheels/are going 30km/h

  12. When someone speaks, there should be something that shows that they are the one talking, right now the only way of knowing who is talking is if you know their voice or you see their mouth move ingame (can be hard when you are surrounded by a bunch of people and they have a mask on / they only talk for 2 seconds)

    My suggestion is to either add a microphone above someones head when they talk, or change the color of their name when talking in direct chat
