Tasers

[Sean]

I think that police should be given a taser that disables a person for 5 seconds (like real life) so you can handcuff them as soon as they get up. They would be most likely used for suspects running on foot or some other situations. I don't think they would be used in a shootout or if a person is armed but I think its really helpful when your trying to chase someone.

I WANT YOUR OPINION SO IF IT IS GOOD OR BAD THEN JUST SAY!

I'm sure this has already been requested a lot, but it wouldn't be a bad addition, I believe that have the stuffs, but it is just really buggy.

Tasers have been a common topic for a while now, however, tasers have been suggested multiple time before & have never been implemented. With that being said, there was probably a reason for it. Use the search function in future, as this topic has been discussed a lot.

I believe the police are too OP right now anyway, seeing as they can run faster than you which makes no sense seeing as they can do that whilst swinging a night stick at the same time

We do actually have a taser however it has an issue with it; it crashes the server, I would Love a taser but its a bit tricky for the devs to deal with at the moment as other stuff are way more urgent for them!

This would be amazing with traffic officers as well. Maybe have some community help with the (TASER) code?

One issue with tasers is when they should be used.

Say you are being shot at by a person, the usual ruling is that when you're being shot you can do anything to preserve your life, be that running away, running the shooter over in a car, or rushing in with melee if you have no other options.

Well if cops were armed with tasers a naughty crim is trying to shoot you up, you could pull out your taser and score a lucky shot on the shooter, going from about to die to winning the gunfight in one shot. Now just imagine the salt that was be produced in that moment as you tase the guy, as he losing his gun and his freedom because his aim was shit and the cops had a taser.

So there would have to be rules that further complicate things especially in shootouts and situations where suspects are armed with a firearm.

Not saying it's not possible I just don't like the idea of adding the taser and then a bunch of people get banned for using it wrong.

A star wars RP had tasers. They worked great. I could tase some one from an unlimited distance. Run up stand IN their body so when they respawned we spawned in each other and I would cuff em. Very over powered. I kinda abused it. Tased someone the second they started to run. Also if you tased some one that had a different model, when they re-spawned the model would return to the original player model. Broke RP a lot of times.

Lets think about it this way. If the cops got tasers they would be a bit more powerfull. Anyway right now they have a batton. That you can think about its a bit like a "Taser" So if they would get both items it would be a bit more realistic but on the same. Hand still no really need. People is roleplaying good when getting hit my the batton so. In my opinion no tasers

Tasers in theory would be a nice addition to the PLPD.
But I believe in practice it will just be something that'll be abused and a bit too powerful. Imagine you have a taser that stuns people and you can easily just defeat a large team of raiders with a small police force that have tasers.

I believe it will just make police rush in and fire their tasers at you....

What about tazer Officers. A Small amount of officers that are permitted to use a Tazer.
