Self Handcuff

Recommended Posts

I think a single armed bandit player should be able to force another player at gunpoint to lock themselves down with a provided set of cuffs. 

 

I suspect many lone wolf players would agree it can be a challenge to hold people up without killing them, since putting away your gun to cuff someone leaves you unacceptably vulnerable. 

 

If players choose to refuse, then fine. But I think it should absolutely be an option to cuff yourself because it is totally reasonable and realistic. Also, because not every unarmed player is harmless to an armed player. Any skilled player is a threat if you don't have a weapon trained on them.

I fully support this.

I'd just make them unsure as to wether or not i have my gun out.

 

I'd make em turn around, with hands up and then say "i'm going to hand cuff you" but not actually switch to handcuffs. If they turn around then i fire a warning shot, if they charge then i kill 'em. Do this a couple of times (if needed) then actually cuff 'em.

This is a good idea, would make some otherwise compromising positions less..well compromising.

 

Given your sig, are you sure this topic has NEVER been brought up in this sub-forum? I did a search and was absolutely AMAZED this had never been posted here. It has definitely been posted on the Steam Community forums, but not here.

Not that I have filtered, might be mixed into a mass suggestion list though.

Haven't tried it, but if you punch someone in the face can you handcuff them while they're knocked down/getting back up?
