Removing heat/wanted level from /c wanted

[stormeus]

I've been considering removing showing a player's heat and wanted level in /c wanted and its variants and, instead, replacing them with the number of stars a player has. The reason for this is that it looks like !spree on deathmatch servers and that players (particularly criminals) are using it to make and break "records," leading to some cophunting and roleplay that isn't particularly enjoyable for all sides.


I'm almost definite I'll make this change in 2.0. However, I'd like to gather some arguments from VC:MP's players.

due to fact that you replaced police prizes with SAMP style ones (600$ for killing max) this is not 'suggested', this is NEEDED. However, /c crime should stay so cops can keep track if criminal is extremely dangerous or not. Btw, while you replacing with stars, it means that heat can get to a 'max' level, or it's unlimited like now?

Wanted level and heat will remain as it is. However, this would be for the script's purposes only, and not generally visible.
/c crime will still exist.

EDIT: The prize capping was also added because of the incredible amount of DMing cops because "i maek money admin" and that it was ridiculous for a cop to get thousands upon thousands of dollars for just killing one suspect.

So you want to replace "[EAF]Marcell [101 / 152]" with "[EAF]Marcell [5*]" ?

Yo dude I had 3565 heat once. Zerox, on a ban-evading account, killed me and acquired 275,000 dollares. :S

Ok well as long as /c crime is still there, cause cops still need to know who the more dangerous suspects are somehow.
