Topic: Some suggestions for the policecar display (on the top)



Short explanation (in notes):
-Multi-language texts
-The text "follow me"
-

Detailed description (why should it become added/...):
1st, the multi language texts: I think it would be cool if there is not only "Stop your vehicle"
there should be then like "Stop your vehicle Halten sie das Fahrzeug an Arrêtez votre véhicule (...)"
Languages: French, English, German, Spanish, Chinese (or Japanese). Because, there may be guys who don't really understand the language (RP) and when this become added, it would be like Paralake City is an popular city. I think with the languages it wouldnt be really hard because, there are many players from other countries and they could help. Or ask the moderators, perpheads got many foreign moderators.
2nd, The text "follow me": It should become added because let's say, there is a speeder, and the police or speed enforcer get him, the Speed enforcer have to get the speeder to a safe zone (like an parking lot). Would be useful, because you don't have to write in the chat "FOLLOW ME".


Optional additions:
No optional additions

Edit: Allright, multi language is a not really good idea ^^

Personally I reckon a -Support for the Languages, Everyone who is one the server obviously understands English enough to be able to play it and lets be frank only about 3% of players don't speak English.

As for the option "FOLLOW ME" i give a +Support, It can be very useful when guiding people with damadged cars to the repair shop or escorting a speeder to a safe place to issue them a ticket. There could be a law added along the lines of "When an Officer displays his 'FOLLOW ME' sign to you and instructs you to follow you must obey and follow until ordered to stop" or something along them lines.

-Support, this isn't needed at all.
  1. If you dont know English while being pulled over you go downtown
  2. Why would USA cops have other languages on their car?
  3. This whole idea IMO is dumb.
  4. Everyone would get confused
  5. How would it help if you don't know from where is the driver?

English is a national language in the world. ALMOST Everyone know English in the world...Almost.

So,if a tourist decide to make a tour around the Paralake..He probably knows english.

I dont think additional languages or ''Follow me''(Its really unrealistic and unofficial,in my opinion) is not needed.

(I give -Support because adding it in-game will just a waste'o time for Developers.)

The staff team is aiming to get rid of all the hovering text and adding 3 lines of text above cars is what they like to avoid.

Well there is no need for this as everyone must be able to read and speak English on the server to roleplay, in addition there would be no need for it at all. Maybe things saying 'Do not enter' or something like that, but to have it in different language would make no difference. Some people may not understand the other languages meaning it would not help at all.

You must be able to speak and read English to play on the server.

Hello!

The problem is, in order to play here, you need to understand proper English, so that you can understand the staff, and to RP in a regular manner, otherwise you won't have a chance of Roleplaying that greatly, as you (Might be wrong) have to speak English OOC'ly and IC'ly as long as you are not a civilian. [I might be wrong at that point].

If you as officer start to put a text sign up, saying "Stop dit køretøj, derefter kør ind til siden" then I don't think the target will have a chance of understanding what he has to do.

Apart of the language idea, I do like the "Follow me" text, as I commonly see people stopping on the highways or just middle of the roads, thinking its okay, even though they're breaks the laws. +Support apart of the language idea =)

What is the point? To be able to play here you must understand English, so why influence people to disregard that and use their own language.. I'd totally understand if this community's main language wasn't English, but it is.

The main language of the server is English, so players should be able to read it, not to mention it's only a small bar, so after the English section disappears, some players wouldn't know what it means.

DENIED - The suggestion will be denied, we do not feel this will be a great addition to the server. However, thank you for the suggestion.
