I think invisible cops made a much better rp experience possible because you could sneak up on drug deals without being seen on the map.
No more explaination needed i guess..
just vote xD

In my opinion cadets should show up on map but real ARPD officers shouldn't.

Since cadet skin isn't a "real" cop, it shouldn't stay as invisible.

Purely because I play more as Civilian than Cop, I would prefer them to be visible. Nonetheless, I love being a cop who is invisible on the map. There should be a command for ARPD and Cadets like /blip which toggles it on or off. That way, you have a choice.

Police officers shall not be shown at map becouse in RL you dont see it like other said it could be nice if you could sneak into a drug storage if you rp that. But cadets shall be visible at map i think :)

i agree, i dont think cops should show up on the map, i think gandalf did it to see if the players really want it or not, well if this topic comes out the way most of us want it to, im sure the big guy will change it soon enough

best regards, Anto

Make them invisible.

if thats your problem you should warn the cop to use the sirene AND megaphone.

I can say once and for all time...
We did give to ARPD a lot of features... We were trying to make all what they wanted... And what we have as answer?
Not organized not professional organization with abusing their power...

So I can say - enough working for cops - scripts should improve all parts... And for cops were done a lot...
Why should cops be invisible when others are visible??? Why should cops have so much advantages?

And actually I am pissed off... Cops want some feature... Okay we do it, then instead of "thanks lets work" cops demand the new feature which is complicated more then the first one they asked, it grows grows grows...

The last what will cops demand - god mode, ffs...

You found paradise in Argonath. You had a good game, you made good friends. The admins protected you and there were courts of law. So you didn't need a friend like me. Now you come and say "Aragorn, give me justice." But you don't ask with respect.

Much better RP is when cops and civilians RP and does not depend of whos spot is on map...

 - Ron, Dont take this is as Offence please -

I have absolutely no problems with being invisible or not, it has always worked out in the old scripts, and it still should work still like it was if needed..

About the part of ARPD Abusing and Whining - I feel kind of hurt by that, I know, you guys did a great job on the Scripts, and we are happy that you are done, and made the server nice. But i think the ARPD needs to have some room to develope now too, Im working on new training programms and some Driving Guides, Plus some nice things with kaltsu and luca already, - I personally did not see any ARPD Abuse at all.. We are all Getting used to the new scripts, maybe some small problems but i didnt see any bad things.

Regards, Rodriguez, SFPD Captain.

- ABout aboves other replys: "Cops being invisible in real life too" - Bull****. Then we can make the whole server Invisible because in RL, Civs cant be seen on some "Map" Also.. My vote: keep visible

Making cadets invisible was actually a glitch, and not many people complained. However for people like me who play with sound off, it causes a 'WTF' if suddenly a caop rams from behind or suspects for not stopping for police.

ARPD is now famous for making a lot of plans. But people are given rights 'temporary' for event as training programs are not completed. In game I can drive in country side, SF or LV and do as I want and will not see a cop. All are in LS complaining about the slow gate. There are no gates in LV, SF or DPD, while people could steal all vehicles there unnoticed.
Cadet cops are 'real' as ARPD, only without the uniforms and less weapons. The skin was a choice of ARPD, not ours...

If real cops are famous for sitting on their butts eating donuts and doing nothing but reading the newspaper while the chiefs talk about needing more people and equipment, ARPD comes pretty close...

Sorry for the rant, but with the time the scripts have taken you would expect ARPD to have finished their structure long ago...

So until we see ARPD as efficient units in game, no further requests.

Do not roleplay a veteran on discord, be a veteran in game.

ron, i just want to say this:
please think about the fact that when a cop stands behind a building listening to a drugdeal, 99% of the time, the criminals say:
/s COPS RUN!!
while the cop cant be seen, only on the map.
that sucks
