Reminder to all cops.

My solution:

Do something unexpected. Figure out what that may be.

Actually RP shootouts and hope the criminals follow suit?

Dammit, I really gotta stop using D Eagle on a suspect who's trying to punch me to death :/

Either way, we all have our own ways of fixing things.

Besides, M4's a bad girl to have. Just buying the weapon's a heartache.

All I'm sayin' is with what's happening right now, it's turning into a frigging routine and it's exasperating.

My usual routine (These days):

1.) Patrol around with or without buddies.
2.) Respond to massive C30s (Like the recent C30s at El Corona)
3.) Get torn up with combined combat/ D Eagle/ DM Tactics
4.) Respawn
5.) Return to scene
6.) Rinse and repeat till they run outta ammo or health.

I'm probably doing something wrong here

Yes you are
If you keep returning alone you won't get anywhere

Would calling radio for the Freecops to coordinate help much? Just asking.

Cynical side: It won't work, most of the "Topkops" just go rushing in anyways.

[JayL]

Just have a Combat Shotgun or a Sniper and get them from the back while the rest rushes in from the front.

  Unfortunately without any SAPD organisation, the freecops will not follow suite. I have witnessed this at one of the mexican revolutions, where freecops are just charging in randomly, and SAPD are barely even responding to the barrage on the radio I'm giving (me trying to organise). Eventually, after about 5 cops returned a few hundred times and 10minutes later the mexicans were finally killed.

  Later on in the day there was a similar situation at Grove Street, however this time SAPD was organised into groups, probably cause a high rank was on or some subgroup... freecops joined and responded to the organisation the criminals were taken out in about a minute. It was over by the time I could even shout for LSPD to get their ass in gear: pretty impressive.

  So want freecops to follow suite, SAPD really does need to lead by example on this one. Work as a team and try your best to survive.

I was in one of those, no, make that 3 - 4 of those. Pain in the ass if you ask me.

Saa, so true

I use M4 for that job sir. Makes rushing from the back unecessary.

I've heard form CBFasi that you aren't allowed to /respawn at suspects and assault them again n again.. till they loose armour. It's a rulebreak

How would you describe that rulebreak in 2/3 Words? ( for admin purposes )

[Pazienza]

Script abusing?

[Kenny]

yep i have seen people getting kicked copbanned and tempbanned for this.

What they do is when they die over 10 times and come back, there only solution is to spawn reset inside the house and while other cops do an assault this cop runs to suspects and punches them their armour off to distract them

[JayL]

Isn't it too obvious that one should not resetspawn in the middle of the combat zone and keep coming back?

"im a cop, im allowed 2 return!!!one"

Common sense would dictate, but then again, it's not so common.

[Jcstodds]

Use common sense!

  The ultimate reasoning of the universe.

They were also threatened by Inkognito who told he'd permban those players if they kept shooting at cops that had shot at them.

Fail.

I've seen it done.
The cop resetspawn in the lobby of a building we were in and literally just went AFK.

Personally I wouldn't have wasted my time with non-rp children on a killing spree in los santos

Says the guy who died, came back without weapons and started punching an armed criminal.

When you used the truck to ram the blockade - that was awesome. When you came back and started punching Kenny - not so awesome.

[Jcstodds]

I usually try to ignore any massive shootouts especially when they have no RP background. Even then I just go to have a good shout and give support either in moral, strategy or weapons.

[Mack]

Dieing, respawning at PD, gearing up, and returning after sometime is totally different from /spawnreset 'ing in middle of warzone. I do hate a few freecops who do this, but its mostly cause they are new to Argo and wish to be a part of PD and police duties. Try PMing such people and explaining them about Argonath and RP, if they have common sense and potential, even they try to co-operate
Hopefully such people could even be turned into SAPD Officer material in future. Everyone plays slightly rough and bad in the start, including me, in the start, my policing habbits were very bad.
