Im satisfied with 0.2b as it runs perfectly, haven't been having any issues so far :)

but I think the pursuit menu should be added back, maybe with more features. It seems the police like to shoot at suspects that arent armed in pursuits, which should be the players choice to call. It also seems if I dont fight for the suspect first the AI take them directly from the scene, if there is investigation/frisking added this should be changed to go to the player wether the AI or you arrested them.

 

and of course the obligatory nitpick, it seems suspects stay in the handcuffed animation when the AI arrest them, however when they get in a players car they have their hands on their lap (sometimes). Just one of those things....

All this will probably come down the line, but as it says on the download page: The first public release of LSPDFR lays down a basic framework upon which the modification will be developed.  Still, it contains a number of interesting features. 

LCPDFR took years to develop. LSPDFR has been in development for a few months. Patience. 

The pullover menu definitely needs an additional option. Currently we have :

• ask for ID
• issue citation
• issue warning
• ask to leave vehicle

 It is missing the option to simply let the person go without warning him/her which is sometimes rather insulting.

An example: I pulled over a vehicle for running a red light. I checked the ID of the woman (using the LSPDFR computer not PoliceRadio mod) and it told me that it was an off-duty cop who had to be treated accordingly. My only option was basically warning her instead of just letting her go.

It's just nitpicking at the moment from you, it's not game-breaking. And you are playing LSPDFR, playing as the LSPD - One of the most violent police forces in the world. It's not surprising they throw insults left and right. At the moment, we are focused on fixing the core stuff, and then add more features. 

@DLM3: From my LSPDFR experience, the cops only shoot if the suspect is either armed or has tried to run over a fellow officer (which is realistic)

 

And the other stuff you're mentioning is really nitpicking like ineseri said. Is it really that important if the menu says "Issue warning" or "Let suspect walk"? Because it comes down to absolutely the same thing, doesn't it?

It wasn't a complaint, just a suggestion...

There is a difference between "I won't be so nice next time, you dirtbag" and "Thanks for your time, have a nice day".

You do realise that you can simply go back to your cruiser and cancel the traffic stop if you want to let them off? Respectively you can also just walk off when you're talking to someone on foot.

I don't think the LSPD has any nice voice lines sadly.

That's what I guessed but well we have a "kifflom" to ask for ID

You do realize that some people enjoy RPing? (I mean look at Jeff Favignano LSPDFR videos for instance)

Anything that adds RP value is welcome.

RP is all in your head most of the time, that's how I do it. LSPDFR provides the basic tools, the rest is up to you!

My intent wasnt to start an argument, just simply some suggestions. I do agree with DLM highly, and there really should be more realistic features involved. I understand its an early release and has lots more to come, but just throwing things out there doesn't hurt, and theres no reason to argue against them and say "well you can do yadda yadda yadda and just imagine its happening"

If thats the way you like to do it fine, but it shouldnt be dependent on the player to think it in their head, these features should be an official part of the mod (eventually). When its basic it breaks immersion and feels lacking. Im just giving out suggestions and things i noticed, for the next possible version or so, I understand that stuff from LCPDFR should and probably will be added. I do hope this isnt going to be dependent on the community to make it roleplayable though, I guess we'll have to see if it becomes as great as LCPDFR 1.0 was at launch, and so forth. I was amazed at the policing features back when it was released.
