Bring back Old Bribe Star system

It was not easy before too... cuz when cops under the radius of 200m, we cannot bribe the star, cuz it only reduces one star from wanted level... not all wanted stars.
And, in case of 1 star, picking up star or paying ticket is same.

If we have to evade the cops, why would we use bribe star, the best way is to escape out of city and evade the cops.
Bribe stars seems useless now lol.

Mike, Once See the situation from the POV of players who play regularly.

The old system allowed you to escape the police easily, wasnt that the whole point of the bribe? Even the painspray does not work now and i need to either flee for my life or hope a nice officer bribes me.

Mike doesn't even play the game and thinks bribes are too OP... Why am I still alive in this world? I should have died before seeing such a POV.

Stars doesnt reduce the whole wanted level. It reduces only one wanted star and there is a cooldown period to reuse the bribe star and if there any cop near but not shown on minimap(under the defined radius) you can't use bribe star and evade cops, you can be arrested and taken down until you are yellow. The functioning is same as earlier.
Bribe Stars are only beneficial for criminals if you have 1 or 2 Wanted level.

As per the comparison of then and now, it wasn't easy earlier too and its not easy now to evade cops. But, It is more time complex.
