Title: ARPD/Active Freecops Read
Post by: Indica on March 15, 2009, 01:59:22 am
You're sitting in Pershing Square in your police car, probably eating an RP donut and sipping your RP coffee. You see in the chat window:
John_Doe smokes weed, getting high.
And the results from a speeding car say:
Jane_Smith(1)'s speed: 135km/h.
Who do you usually proceed to follow? The car of the pot-smoker moving towards GS9 or the speeding car going down towards Verona Beach? Which is more important for you to pursue?

Take the speeder since he make a direct threat to Public. If ur abel send another unit on the smooker or make a note on registration plate so u can talk to him later.

Can you visually see Ol' Johnny Boy smoking the reefer? Or are you just going off of what appeared in your chat window?

same as above yes, if he is driving the chance is big that you dont see him smoking,
and how would you do both at same time,
you wont look at smoker and at same time do /speed at someone else



 :ps: why does it matter?

If you are inside a car you probably wouldn't tell if it was weed or a normal cigarette. You also wouldn't smell the weed as you are inside a car. The only way you would know that it is weed would be to read the script and metagame.

Go for the speeder, as Pancher said, he poses a threat to civilians.. Maybe later, trying and locate the smoker, only if I actually visualy saw it.. Not via chat window.

So "metagaming" is against the rules for cops to do? I wish everyone would listen to that.

And to the question "why does it matter?", I'm only asking because I want to know what you guys see as a bigger threat. An illegal drug used in game, or a speeder in game. And you guys answered the question well enough for me :)

  I would keep eating my donut / coffee, since I cant use a speed gun and eat at the same time.

Indeed! You must be mostly 10-7 when you are eating your donut and drinking your coffee.
And greatest thing is to do it in the coffee shop... ;)

I'd open my window, throw my coffee and donut on the ground, start my car up and drive into a wall with my 1337 driving skillz.

There are no rules against metagaming.

The smoker - Running twards gs9, possibly crash and explosion that could kill anyone near the bowsers
The speeder - going twards beach, freeway so its unlimited speed

Id take the smoker, the speeder is going to a freeway anyway.

thanks
