mstrkrft Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Hey EveryoneBeen playing LA mod and following this forum for quite a while now but never really thought I had anything more useful to contribute then what was already getting posted here however now I am interested to find out what the community thinks of these issues I’ve found.I find that in a lot of events treating injured people and dealing with criminals in this game is a little to easy, for example:If someone is too sick/injured to lift onto a stretcher you only need to get a paramedic to treat them for about a second before they are healthy enough to be transported and once they are in the ambulance it doesn't seem to matter how long it sits at scene or how long it takes them to get to hospital the patient will never die. Does anyone else think that having it so the paramedic needs more time to work on a patient before he is stable enough to transport and having critical ill patients able to die in ambulances en-route to hospitals would add an extra bit of challenge to the game? It would definitely make deciding which patients need to be airlifted and which ones can go by road at major multi-casualty incidents more critical.Also in relation to events with violent criminals (murder, hostages taken etc) nearly every one that I’ve encountered so far seems to be a single suspect with a pistol and nearly all situations can be diffused with one or two squad cars and minimal injury to officers. The creators of this mod have made such an amazing police force but I barely ever feel like I need to use all my options and gear in full or worry about my officers being gunned down before I can arrest/shoot the suspect myself. If there were events where the criminals had much more powerful guns then what our general patrol cars are equipped with or events with multiple armed offenders (for example a large gang shootout) where the risk of officers being killed is very high I think it would make us as gamers really have to think and strategize a lot more about what units we deploy and where.Its been a long time since I’ve loved a game/mod as much as I love this one so I’m very curious as to what everyone’s opinion isjc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mrpolice1996 Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 to the forumI think people can die in the ambulance can't they?I agree with you on the second point although sometimes if you are busy with other emergency, like fires, it's nice being able to quickly arrest someone.

randomperson139 Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 to the forums.On the deluxe version of the game there is a sniper event. I like your ideas but I'm not sure if you can change how long it takes to heal the people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starsairsoft101 Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 I kind of like the esay ones because it gives you a brake fromthe harder ones, but I do see your point. to the forums.On the deluxe version of the game there is a sniper event. I like your ideas but I'm not sure if you can change how long it takes to heal the people.what do you mean a sniper event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomperson139 Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 There is a sniper you shoots everyone that comes within a certain distance and because it is a sniper the peeerson who has been shots goes down and you don't have that much time before they die.

Guest mrpolice1996 Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Yep basically like 'person running amok' but with a more powerful gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saxguitar Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I agree some more difficult police issues would add an extra pazzaz to the mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic22 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I know, I would like it to be a bit harder as well. For MVA's I select a person and make the health drain like 40 and the medicine gain like 42 and they'd have low heath. Sometimes I give them a decent amount of health like 40 health drain and 30 medicine gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xplorer4x4 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I think people can die in the ambulance can't they?Yeah but thats only if you have a severely injured patient who gets little to no treatment before transport. Im not sure if it applies in freeplay though.is this a mission?Nope just a freeplay event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic22 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I believe when they are in the ambulance in freeplay mode there health goes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrkrft Posted November 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 thanks for all the replies guysI agree with you on the second point although sometimes if you are busy with other emergency, like fires, it's nice being able to quickly arrest someone.yeah it's still be nice to have the minor incidents so you can relax every now and agiain but just a combination of some really hard ones as well would be nice, or even an event with just more then one armed person person in it would test us out a little bit morethat sniper one also sounds pretty cool i wonder if there's a way hoppah could add it to la-mod for those of us that dont have delux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomperson139 Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I don't think the sniper event would work on normal EM4 even if Hoppah did add a sniper event to the LA Mod map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Taylor Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 I do agree. I want some bloody murders, some serial killers, some people stealing cars, leading us on a wild ride, through shopping malls, etc, etc. However, since no one on here can create this stuff, I'm happy with what I've got now.

Xplorer4x4 Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 However, since no one on here can create this stuff, I'm happy with what I've got now.Knowing hoppah, and the ny mod guys, never say never If you find it to easy you can always tweak the freeplayevents file. Personally I enjoy fighting big fires so i turned up the gas explosions to 2.0, and now have a bit more big fires that I need like 4 engines/ladders for.

Fuzzyface Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I agree with the point that sometimes they are too easy most definately.I got so annoyed spending an hour of gameplay with nothing major but 'Guy has tripped over his laces' and 'Woman's dropped handbag crushes toes' every 2 minutes that I just edited my freeplay to omit all of the 'easy' events.Also, I generally always use 1-2 less units than required at fires for example so that I really have to consider where I place them to control it etc as opposed to sending 10x foam tenders and sitting back.Create my own drama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I used to like letting things escalate a bit before sending responses, and I still do but some things require immediate action, as all that'll happen if you do nothing is it will just let the suspect move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LACityFFengineCo287 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I deal with some asap, other things like people with guns, let them shoot people. It makes it more interesting. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Depends on my mood of course, if shots fired by one of my units, I go and arrest that MOFO as fast as possible, sometimes I'll kill him for ruining my charger, other times, I will wait until a better chance arises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NMDanny Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 i hate the little events like stroke that there is one injuried person, they just waste time.i don't like the little fires either, since i don't want to take care of them i send fireplane. and sometimes little fires turn to big fires like gas explosions, but that's rare.Hostage situations are little more interesting, but still easy (most times there is only one suspect with a pistol and no hostage)vehicle fire is annoying too because it can make traffic jam and chain explosion, and i can't extinguish it with fireplanei like traffic accidents, except the last part when i have to use a lot of rollback trucks and its worse when there is a traffic jam that blocks the trucks way.there should be new events like:arrest suspects with arrest warrants, raid their houses with SWAT (should happen often)arrest immigrants (similar to arrest suspects but they are less/not armed) raid on drug dealers and drug factoriesraid on heavily armored terroristsprotect vip, protect vip house, protect convoys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
