More roleplay shootouts?

[Mikal]

Often when I'm on duty and theres a mass group of suspects shooting or what ever I'll get out, crouch behind my patrol car and radio for backup then attempt to hold the criminals off in a roleplay shooting manner, but then the suspects just withdraw Combat Shotguns and storm towards you bunnyhopping, people who do that are bound to know who they are..

But whilst the suspects may do it, the police do it too.. Lets say the suspect actually attempts to roleplay with a shootout, like sometimes in Motels they'll hide at the end room shooting down the corridoor, some police officers don't even attempt to roleplay, they'll just storm in with Deagles like rambo going nuts..

IMO we are all as bad as eachother, but this topic is here to try and make people do more roleplay shootouts, instead of bunnyhopping towards your target (Suspects or police in any situation) try crouching behind something and shooting, I think it's much more effective in killing and surving yourself and looks much more realistic.

Discuss, no moaning please!

Standing still is the stupidest thing you can do in a shootout, if they bhop, be a bitch with them. buy a tec9 and run like a chicken around them

Naaah

Recently had a shootout with Romeo on Paruni, I was being patient staying behind cover shooting him, I remained on full HP, bit of Armor, and him on basically no health.

As soon as I went Rambo like a criminal I died.

This topic isnt about lagg shooting, I lagg shoot 24/7 and get 80/100 shots on target, I just want to see more roleplay shootouts other than bunny hop in, shoot and bunny hop out..

Like in any kind of relationship, meet your partner and know what you can do with ones and what you can't do with others.
You'll meet them and start seeing who does what and you'll begin to filter your actions accordingly to the person(s). Some days you'll have a tactical RP shootout, others you'll have rambo style ones.

Your primary goal in a shootout is to SURVIVE at all costs, even if it means taking the life of your combatants by any means possible. Making it as realistic as possible should be the last thing you even try. Besides, GTA:SA has its limitations that don't allow for realistic combat... or as you put it, "RP"

It's not easy to know who's gonna do what, and vice versa. In other words; you cannot know whether the cop will dodge and maybe have one duck-up-shoot or run-around-in-circle. To prevent the whole scenario, contact the criminal you're chasing, to make sure that he goes down on the same conditions as you.

I would like more roleplay shootings as well. I always use weapons that are the same power as rival. When ever I see someone using only shotgun or deagle, I use my AK-47, just like when ever I see someone using combat, I'll use it as well.

I think this should be done  by everyone, in effort to make it a real sport, with dogging etc, but unfortunetly many people wouldn't follow this.

Agreed.But When I try to Roleplay a shootout, the cops call backup and the FBI and then we all get killed.

Same thing with bank robberies.

Of course they will call backup. Do you think they will stay behind a police cruiser for 20 minutes shooting and taking the risk of dying alone while the criminal could also call his ''backup'' on a CB channel?

I once had a great role-played shoot-out. GrimReaper was the cop while I was the mexo suspect. I was camping up some stairs at a building, while Grim was below and on the other side of the road, hiding behind the jewelery store. We were like 'peak - shoot - hide', while having a conversation just like in the action movies.

But that was on MTA:VC though. What SAMP players need is to learn to have fun from the chase/shootout itself, instead of just killing cops/suspects and consider that "winning" the situation.

Cops and Criminals, whether personal or just bias,  don't trust each other. Perfect example already done:

Logical.

Equally logical.

Here's the thing: Even if both sides trusted each other enough to have a 'Roleplay shootout,' SA is not for a PvP Combat game. the game and physics of gun fighting is ridiculous and really ruins any chance of the 'roleplay shootouts' people speak of..
