Suggestion: Police cars/Ambulances

Recommended Posts

This is my first post to the forums but I'm hoping this gets a bit of attention...

I had the idea that Police cars and Ambulances could be implemented as fully integrated vehicles into the game. The Police cars and Ambulances could have their's horns audio files changed for sirens. As a bonus, the cars could have a loud speaker that lets people hear the driver through the push to talk at a much further distance (essentially acting as an amplifier).

The introduction of Police cars and Ambulances would help establish a 'vigilante' faction that could patrol the major cities for people who require assistance/deal with rumoured banditry.

Please feel free to add anything to this or give any criticsms, I'd like to hear what you have to say.

A good idea in theory, but the location of the mod kind of counteracts this. When I first started playing I heard there were firehouses, churchs etc... so I thought find a police station and get some weaponry... but there are no police stations, why? This is a post-soviet state, there is no law enforcement like in other parts of the world. This type of area would be patrolled by military police, so your "police car" is the UAZ which the MPs would drive around in, and your ambulance, would be a military first aid vehicle (not added in the mod) or maybe some type of small van for local hospitals. I'm not sure how the loudspeaker would be added, but a neat idea(would prob attract bandits to you). As far as switching audio files I'm sure that wouldn't be difficult, but again, a car horn attracts bandits, a siren (most likely louder) would do the same.

Plus bandits could just use them to draw survivors in for the kill.

"Hooray! lets go meet them!"

There is an early version of a decent police-car in the mod. But it needs alot of work. A LOT.

I think it would be much more likely to go like this:

>"This is the police, we're here to help!"

*frag grenades impact car*

*OfficerBandit has disconnected*

Bravo. Well played.

I'm all for the idea, I just doubt that an effective police force will happen. It'll be another vehicle that people can troll with.

Nothing really wrong with that, though, if it fits into the development schedule. Variety keeps things fresh.
