Cop Hunting shouldn't be allowed

You do realize in order for someone to get punished admin needs to review the complaint, not just take his word for it. You'd have to prove that you didn't in any way harm that person, same as if you were a civilian complaining about DM. There's no "more job" in this, it would just be a new rule which would lower the amount of DM on this server. So obviously, 10second videos wouldn't be accepted because something could have happened before you started recording (you arresting him or assisting in his arrest/death etc). However, some players keep DMing cops over and over again, so it wouldn't really be that hard to catch (especially for admins, who have the power to spectate and see their gameplay).

"this is not needed" starter pack :







EDIT: just to meme this a bit more :

that pack...

Nothing wrong with that, obviously players can go and report it with proof like me if they want something to be done.

Moderators are hired for a reason and as the server gets bigger and more features added, it only makes sense for some new rules to be put in place in the sake of fairness.

It can start as a simple rule in /dm /rules: "don't hunt for cops around the map, only kill if they're following / approaching you"

It can't be that hard to follow these rules and avoid those situations, it's just some players on here look for trouble/problems.

If a cop attacks a criminal and then runs away crying that he got cop hunted it will show in /crimes.

I even think that it should give a warning to criminals to stop shooting a unarmed cop just like it shows for civilians, only then it can be somewhat fair.
Maybe after a certain distance between you and the criminal you get the approval of shoot to kill. but even then it enforces Dm on the server which still isn't allowed.

Yeah, I completely agree and have been saying this type of shit for ages.

I even talked to M3E6 on discord regarding this (mind you that this is not a diss against him, just wanted to be clear, since sometimes each admin has a different opinion)


The conversation came to a result that if a cop is just minding his own business and eating a chillidog on the side of the street, any real criminal (orange/red) can just some up to him and kill him for jack shit.

Yet on the other side of the spectrum if a crim is unarmed we can't do shit.
That's why cops feel like you're always at a disadvantage. You're just playing a shittier, more rule heavy civ, who gets payed worse.

COP Pays should be increased since it's worst lol.

and I agree with Puuro, A cop can literally abuse this system to get the one punished whom he failed to kill/arrest. Like cops would come near criminal and shot at them or near them when being shot back they will start running back spamming /report Cophunting...  so it's a nono suggestion

How the hell can you abuse a /report command? You typing it down doesn't mean the player will get punished. Unless the admin sees the whole thing, nothing will happen.

So, I had pretty much the same thing happen with me and my friend. We fought and killed ShockWeave and Astronaught, whilst Astro was pretty chill about the thing, to my knowledge..
Shockweave went out of his way to MULTIPLE TIMES find me and my friend, as a civilian, run up to us, on purpose rob us to get 2 or more stars and then proceeded to unload on us.
I got a vid of it here, where me and my friend pulled up on a ticket evader and all of a sudden Shockweave just comes, on purpose robs my friend and then we start a fight. That's literally promoting Deathmatching.. but due to current rules it's all fine, cause he was orange.

If cophunting wasnt allowed ; he still had reason to kill you to protect himself . If youre complaining about robbing on purpose to get stars , well . Why not ?

You can't talk about "protecting yourself" when you're the person who started the fight..that's what's wrong with this. There is no "self defense" if you are the one who came after the cop. If it was the other way around, then by all means, kill him. But chasing and killing cops who haven't done anything to you is wrong..I really don't understand how people don't get this.

Again, if this kind of gameplay is okay to the developer, then at least let cops have the same freedom. Currently civilians only have to think about colorus..like..BLUE OR RED = KILL , WHITE OR YELLOW = KILL ONLY WHEN THEY DO SOMETHING TO YOU. While cops have shit ton of rules to follow..when to arrest, when to taze, when to use weapons, who is armed who is unarmed in this group of people - who can i shoot who can't i shoot, what to do when the person is in water, what to do when the person is on a high building, what to do when the person is paused, where exactly to shoot a bike so you don't harm the unarmed criminal..list goes on and on and on. And it's all to preserve a life of a civilian (who loses the same amount of cash as we do on death btw), who will 2 and a half minutes later buy guns and go on a DM spree against you and your fellow officers. It makes no sense..if they're free to screw us over for absolutely no reason why should we have to be so very RPish and never ever harm them?

FYI, We can take revenge From cops for arresting us or taking us down. It's in the rules.
So People not taking revenge and being cool with cops isn't really a problem. Shockwave had right to kill those cops as he can take revenge.

Yeah, I'd understand that if it was in the same life w/o death. But if he goes after us 3 times in a row and 2 of those he dies and then finally is successfull, that's just hunting us down on purpose.

-1 Is it part of the game that the police will lose because of being killed?

just read all of the topic newb and you'll see

Yes, this needs to be stopped. currently, cops are weak and helpless as compared to robbers. I have experienced and seen players getting killed just because they are playing as cops. maybe that's why the teams are unbalanced, 65 players playing out of which only 7 - 10 are cops.

Let me be honest at this part, 20 cops is enough for 80 players, if half of them are skilled. The only reason cops are unbalanced mostly, because theres mostly 1-3 well skilled cops in the city out of 15 non-skilled. I'm starting to get used to cop hunting rule already, which probs will stay there, until Mike or M3E6 decides to change it.

Me as criminal and even some my friends, don't cop hunt, If there will be cop after me or my friends if were together, ofc we will take care of it. So should others aswell, but we shouldn't encourage new players to cop hunt. There's plenty other ways to kill cops, without chasing them down, its simple, drive past them, mostly they will come after you, if not, bad luck, find another cop. Rather lure them into your death trap, than hunt them down with your 4 man sultan tank.
