Baton Update


Vincix

Recommended Posts

Description of the idea: Add a stun option with the batons, like for example: If someone uses left click on someone and they are running it would slow them down or freeze them for 5-10 seconds.

Why should this be added?: Well, this would be a very functional system for all the policing agencies within the game. For example, this will increase the popularity for Landespolizei and makes arrests easier for everyone. This will be useful since minges randomly punch people in Berlin and Landespolizei or any other person needs 3-4 people to surround them and detain them which is a hassle since if their faction isn't as popular as the others then you can understand the mass of conflicts this will cause, especially if it is their primary duties to enforce the German Penal Code.

What negatives could this have?: Minges will dislike this and probably every single person that gets arrested.

Additional information: Whoreson has a nice haircut.

However, in order for the person in question to be frozen you must be directly infront or behind the individual and then left click (hit) and the baton will hit them freezing them for 5-10 seconds

I feel like with the stun function it would open the door to minges to abusing this function on other players.

Granted trolls can abuse anything, but a feature that would slow or completely stun another player is something I believe needs more forethought before introducing.

 

For the most part I am mixed on this, as arresting players isn't always easy and LaPO may make use of something like this

-1

easily abusable by LaPo anwarters with 2 hours on gmod aswell as overall minges, no thanks, fearrp exists for a reason.

Which is why we won't be recruiting minges anymore if this gets added since we now can make arrests easy and don't need 4 people to arrest someone

And how would that work? There are plenty of minges who fake it just to get whitelisted and there are plenty of players, experienced or not, who just want to see numbers go up and whitelist anyone. 

 

Although I was initially neutral as I don't think it's entirely a bad idea, it almost certainly would be abused by anyone. Minge or not. 

@mothmade a great point, FearRP is a thing for a reason. If arrests are that difficult a ticket can be made. On top of that and upon reflection, having a system that completely stales or stuns a player seems exploitative itself and would not be fair to players who break FearRP as they are allowed to do so

 

I think the risk of abuse outweighs the utility of the suggestion and because of this I'll be converting my vote to -1

Small addition noting the concept seems exploitative itself

-1 No thank you minges will abuse this hard.

Neutral leaning towards -1, I can see this being somewhat useful on the condition that it is locked behind like, 6 hours of playtime. I can also see this being abused in combat. + Hitting people with the baton already freezes them for like a second.

I don't disagree with you, but when roleplaying as a Police Officer it is very difficult to make an arrest. Unless you have around 5 people for one person, you can't prisoner diamond them. All you can do is shoot their leg out so they can't run, but even then, you can't make an arrest. Being left with just saying "Stop slowly walking backwards with your already crippled leg or I'll shoot you" tends to get struck down as excessive force and non-conductive to roleplay. Also, we like to make arrests and take people to our cells for fines or charges or whatever else.

 

Giving us an option for a non-lethal arrest (The baton is essentially useless) would be useful, even if this suggestion is perhaps not fully realised.
