Police bikes

[Willy]

I dont find it problem, if all cops are patrolling in bikes...
Also, its biased for them to have forward DB when criminals have nails...

[SugarD]

lol. Who actually pulls over to the side of the road when they hear sirens?

Most people in most countries where it's the law?

Ignorance for the law is not a valid excuse to dismiss it, either way.

it's not about that lol. i never pull over when i hear sirens, only if someone tells me to. why would i pull over just cause i hear sirens? i hear them too often for that to happen, especially since cops use them not just for pulling you over, gee.

Most of the time I don't even hear them anyway. I got my iTunes blasting out of my speakers :cool:

No nails in v2.0...

[Marcell]

who needs nails against bike when you can just brake and make the driver hit the asphalt with his chin

The main reason why people ignore them in-game is either because of game limitations/issues causing them to not see/hear them, or because they just don't care enough about roleplaying with everyone outside their closed groups to even bother playing along.

I usually pull over in their windshield

So pulling over everytime a cop drives behind you? no thx

No one needs your scratches at the moment, Shadow. All we need is the new version of VC:MP, which will sadly even not be worked on until Christmas or so.

No one is forcing you, hence Argo's Vision. The point is this is a roleplay server, and the reason why sirens and lights exist on emergency vehicles in real life is so people get out of their way and avoid accidents with them when they are speeding to an emergency. That's the same reason why we use them in Argo, in a roleplaying fashion. No one is forcing you to do it, but some of us may choose to for the sake of roleplay. I personally do it whenever I am able, even if Code 4 in an emergency vehicle myself. I don't see a reason why we shouldn't let them pass safely. They are trying to warn us they are coming up quickly to prevent an accident. If we follow the "for the sake of roleplay" idea here, it would only make sense to give the Police Bikes some sort of warning system, if possible, since it would be treated as if it were a marked vehicle, seeing how none currently exist in this specific game.

That unfortunately is a common issue due to game limitations. Some people in SA:MP came up with a *possible* and creative idea to help with it a bit, but unfortunately it's not something that's possible in VC:MP at this time.

[~Legend~]

Ahh, be nice and let the life savers, protectors, all those kind folks of our city do their job? : D

An idea for the PCJ:
Unsure if possible, but I'm sure this would really make itself heard. There's the car alarms system in VC, which goes off when you start up locked/certain parked vehicles.

Let's create a constant version of that for police PCJs, heheh?

[Call_me_Dad]

ffs its just a bike.
Cops jack em anyway....

The problem with adding them is that cops have too many cars.
So...the more we add, the less slots users get to buy cars. Since VCMP has 180 car limit.
Ill probably replace 2 PD cars with bikes.

Sirens aint an issue, PCJ has a very annoying horn too....it can serve the purpose very well
