Aldo

Nolim, did you learn a new latin phrase in school? Looks kinda silly when you use it in every post. From outsider perspective, it looks like you guys were going in looking for a fight. You had him cornered and you outnumbered him, boohoo you got shot. Looks like you were just baiting him to open fire, and frankly regarding how NLA works and treats civs, I can see why shooting would be the only option left for him to get out alive of the situation. If you really wanted to RP (and NLA is known for outstanding RP as we all know) you could have just yelled at him to come out and surrender.

Date: 17.1.2015

Reason: RDM/Lack of roleplay. We spotted "Nato" doing a roadblock on Pyrgos bridge with heavy weaponry and multiple vehicles and as law-abiding citizens we felt it was our duty to stop their foul attempts. At this point we didn't have any communication with them as we were plotting our approach, and I just ended up getting shot from two directions without any roleplay or communication whatsoever.

Date: 3.1.2015

Reason: Combatlogging, behaviour. We were going to rob Lars and his friend at copper processing. We were just going to yell them orders when one of our guys was shot and we returned fire. Lars escaped and I ambushed him and then he logs off/game crashes. Warning: strong language

Great points Riggs! Personally I have had many negative situations and very few positive ones with the police. For example the numerous times I have drove past a checkpoint (going offroad is like 2k fine?), there have been 2-5 police standing there shouting in direct and opening fire with 6.5's right away. I don't think using lethal force for a minor fine is justified. Sometimes there has been an ongoing situation with the A.P.D and C.N somewhere, sometimes not. That doesn't really encourage me to RP with you guys. Or the time I got shot in a firefight and after respawning got taken as a hostage kilometers away and told I get executed if my gang doesn't cooperate with the police. OK, that's not how law enforcement works. Yet, these are incidents that happened in the past but they are the ones that negatively affect my view on the force. I also understand my personal actions towards you guys do the same thing. On the positive side, I was once stopped by a lone officer due to having visibly illegal gear and he handled the situation perfectly! He was extremely friendly and did some great RP there, I miss those kind of interactions.

In my personal opinion both the civs and the cops have lots of room for improvement on the RP side of things. I try to improve on it constantly and I hope you guys do the same! I hope we can get some discussion and good points from all sides in order to work together and make the RP happen more often.

Good job!

Reason: Attempted RDM. I was getting a helo from air garage when I notice these two shady guys are interested in me. I ignore them since they haven't communicated in any way and go get my helo when they start shooting. If we were hostile I had more than enough chances to shoot them. Also vehicle spawns are supposed to be safe-zones..

Ludwig, this is about getting VDM'd, not about getting shot. Stop derailing the topic. I might have heard something if I didn't have Spotify on, but Doug certainly didn't.

Then post proof about that disconnect. If you're having problems with your keyboard it's extremely brilliant idea to go flying around at 5 meters. Ludwig, the music has nothing to do with anything because this post is about VDM, not you being triggerhappy. Guys, is that really your idea of police roleplaying? Land, yell something and start shooting with assault rifles at a bloody salt mine.

Reason: VDM. The video shows the situation quite well and I was lucky my hemmt didn't blow up this time. I have no idea what he was trying to do but flying low like that is generally a really bad idea knowing the amount of desync in this game.

I will post the full video to you on TS once I have upped it!

Reason: RDM. Story time! I just respawned and was gonna shop for some gear and grabbed cash from the ATM when I get shot in the face suddenly. Not cool. The video is so short because that's the whole situation. If it's not enough for a proof I can make video that shows the previous events too.

Offender-Name: [A.T.F] Emmah

Date: 13.11.2014

Reason: VDM. Backstory: We're capping bandit when ATF decides to crash the party with a hunter, they drive around the hotel once, we are shooting a few rounds to disable the tyres. The hunter gets away and comes back a little later and I get VDM'd. Alot. The video shows that quite well.

Just wanted to pop in and say that [F.M.A] Sam also killed me randomly yesterday while I was refueling my helicopter at a gas station which he was apparently robbing. No warnings, just shouting something after he killed me with a pistol. My shadowplay wasn't on sadly so I have no solid proof of that, just my word.

Hey,

Got a couple of things I'd like to adress. Now that the bandit district is (somehow) working, it's been clear that capturing it the way it works right now is mostly impossible. You have to stay right next to the flag in the open with no way to defend yourself when just looking around might cancel the capturing. Not to mention that if and when somebody, be it police or other civs want to stop you from capturing it, they can do so. One guy with a pistol is enough in most cases, not to mention five+ police with MX's, ghosthawks and hunters.

Other thing I wanted to talk about is the recent HEMMT box nerfs, I'm fine with taking away some trunk space, I get that. But recently, the price to take the HEMMT out of garage has been increased to 95,000 from 35,000, what's the reasoning behind that?

Lastly, I think that the new rule requiring you to use direct channel when robbing people is good in RP sense, but after playing around 200 hours on the server I've noticed that most of the times people just claim they didn't hear you for a number of reasons. Their dog was barking, their friends were giggling on ts, their vehicle was loud and blocked the noise. That creates so much "RDM" accusations back and forth that could be prevented by the SMS, while it's not so good in the RP sense, it makes it easier for everybody to handle the situation properly. You really can't claim you didn't see the SMS. Just a few thoughts, I'm hoping we can create discussion on these matters and others that come up.

Offender-Name: [sWEB] HaxFan

Date: 9.11.2014

Reason: RDM. On two different occasions in 30 minutes, HaxFan shot me in Sofia quite randomly. First time was IMO borderline when he and his friends yelled something to me in Swedish via direct (extremely difficult to hear while in-game btw) while I was driving past them and few seconds after they shot me dead. Second time I'm standing in the middle of the street and get shot in the back all of the sudden. I have video proof for the admins and I'm happy to provide it on teamspeak. I don't want to share the videos publicly due to the personal information they contain.
