Title: SAPD Ranchers
Post by: rex1985 on June 28, 2010, 14:16:05 pm
I believe that SAPD should have Federal Ranchers ive believed this for a very long time as its covert when behind possible criminal cars freecops/cadets and officers only have 2 unmarked buffalos in lvpd which dont have a blue light or siren i belive this is a very good idea as i hardly see FBI out in there black ones anyway (may be in diffrent timezone from me)
just an idea i guess it will take heavy criticism lol

I think the FBI Rancher should be used more, but it's hardly appropriate for Covert Operations.
It's a really good Vehicle because of it's speed and handling. It's a favorate of mine.

Why do they need Ranchers? Everyone knows what a Rancher looks like so what is the point?
SAPD does not need them, FBI has them and SWAT has them.  That is all who needs them.

Ok now what made your head not make this connection Federal Ranchers > FBI/SWAT Not SAPD San andreas police department is NOT FEDERAL!! Just because they look cool dosent mean you need to ride in them. The last time that they were in the server the SWAT / FBI moaned because they are OUR cars and the SAPD was driving them. Why do you need them? You cant /weaponequip out of them... You know thats what they are used for right? You have police ranchers ... use them.

Why would we need Ranchers anyway. They are slow and if SAPD had one it couldn't /weaponequip anyway, so why would we need one? I can see where you got this idea at. FBI, SWAT, EMS, and FD all have Ranchers. But the PD doesn't need them. If you saw a cop with a rancher pulling up on a traffic stop. You would think it would be the FBI. Then later they find out that you aren't. Well if this continues like that and suspects see a rolling rancher they would most likely think it is the PD, and just run away.

One vehicle would be kool is a Dumper  :D

I rather use a federal rancher for my bomb squad activities for RP purposes. In a fedrancher you can transport more tools such as robot and xrays etcetera.

But no, it definately shouldn't be used for regular patrol.

WHAT IN GODS NAME DO YOU THINK IS YOUR PROBLEM???????

Yes, Federal Ranchers are cool.  Yes, they have a flashing light.  Yes, they're good for disabling cars faster.  But let the speculations have it:

Federal Rancher Speculations from a Engineer of SA Vehicles:
- Slow, the average speed is cut in half of that of a normal PD Vehicle, that being the LSPD, SFPD, and LVPD Car.
  - Would get you no where.  The time it would take from Point A [Lets say LSAP] to Point B [Lets say the end of LV-LS HW.] would take a mere SEVEN minutes, dependent upon Traffic, Lag and other things in that habitat.
   - Would be a simple match for vehicles such as the Infernus, Bullet, Cheetah, Phenoix, etc.  The speed in which a Federal Rancher goes is no comparison to that of which the normal PD vehicles go.
- Body structure, it may be four door, and great for "RP events" such as Bombs, CSI, and other things amongst that.  But with the structure of the body, it is hard to:
  - Cut Corners.  There are many sharp corners in the game GTA: SA.  Thusforth giving the Rancher a disadvantage due to the Size, and Shape of the wheels.
  - Tough Terrain.  Yes, the Federal Rancher is made like an off-road vehicle, and has the handling for tough terrains, BUT, if that Rancher gets stuck in a ditch...Son, your stuck.  That Backwheel drive on a Rancher, of a 1-10 scale is about a 4, it is not good for off roading as many people think it is.
- Durability, the durability of a Federal Rancher may be at high, but once flipped, there is a hard chance of reflipping it.
  - The wheels given on the Federal Rancher are made for straights, so if you have to cut a turn for either: PITting someone, or Catching someones ass before they make a sharp turn.  Good luck too you, cause the grip on the Federal Rancher wheels are NOT going to cut it.
- Height, well yeah, the height on the Federal Rancher is very efficent with things, but...What about tight spots?
  - Suspects like to go through places many larger vehicles can't, so they use what is called LVDT - Large Vehicle Destruction Technique.  They may be in something small, such as a Infernus, Cheetah even a NRG or Faggio, but they'll use the small places such as back alleys, sewer drains, and even tunnels, to maneuver throughout SA while wanted, and that Federal Rancher, is NOT going to make it through a back alley of SF, or get through the Cave in Bone County.

Your lucky thats all I can currently think of, but from my specs, and from knowledge of KNOWING a Federal Rancher, inside AND out, trust me, stick with a PD car and the PD Ranchers....

Anyways, we don't need them, we already have SAPD Rangers for off-road. It may have only 2 doors but we still don't need a FBI Rancher.

SAPD does not need them, FBI has them and SWAT has them.  That is all who needs them.
They are simply just large SUV's. I don't see why this is an issue. Just paint them a different color and it shouldn't be an issue at all. They don't say "FBI" in bold letters on the side, so I don't see a reason for heavy restriction if used correctly.

@CBFasi: Is there a way to restrict painting them like you did with the FD ones? Maybe PD ones could be white with a black stripe, etc. :cop:

Bumping? The topic was 5 days old, and I was away during it's creation and discussion. I was making a point, not trolling the topic, so why are you acting so angrily towards me?

Also, I never said we needed them, I said I don't see why they'd be an issue. Please re-read my post.

Not necessarily. You could easily use them for detectives in RP's. Doesn't mean they have to have any special abilities. They'd be just like the regular PD ranchers, except unmarked and longer.

Detective like things, Bomb squad (White vehicle?!!?), vehicle with tacticle equipment for things like MVA's to see what happened. Good for roadblocks too. Wish they could fly.
