Dark Light

I've been playing LSPDFR for the most part and I was wanting more than just constant pursuits after pursuits. This callout mod gave me exactly what I was looking for and I am very happy to say that I am satisfied with the mod. I am also very happy that this mod got extended support to 0.4, so we can enjoy all of the new features from LSPDFR 0.4 while still busting a more diverse set of criminals. However, there are several issues I have with this that doesn't leave me with a 5 star rating, as much as I want to rate it perfectly. First of all, while the Bank Heist is very cool at first, it plays out almost exactly the same every time you get called to it. The voice acting there is, frankly, pretty subpar and I wish more emotion was put into the lines. In addition, because I play as a female cop with a female voice and that I'm female myself, it's extremely jarring to hear a young male voice coming out of her while I am talking to the chief. I would prefer if your character stayed silent the entire time, or if both voice lines got removed entirely; everywhere else in the game has your lines be silent. Second, the Bank Heist has an extremely exploitable bug. If you choose to kill the criminals, you can actually just waltz inside there and melee all of the thieves to death without them reacting to your presence or the fact that you're slapping them to death with your baton at all. While I find it pretty hilarious to slap them all to death by loneself myself with my bare arms, it's not a realistic scenario. And, I think it would be great if there were heists in more locations than the Pacific Bank, I would totally love to see more in other areas. (A little baby cop all by himself whacking a fully-armed robber to death with a golf club while the robber himself and his companions don't react much to it. I wonder what the hostages will tell their spouses when they get home after this incident) Solicitation is the only callout that gives you points or whatever if you do the right or wrong things against the couple, and honestly, I would like to see that sort of rewarded feature expanded to more callouts rather than just that one. Sometimes it bugs out and I'm here sitting for a long, long period of time, waiting for a car to pick her up and it never does. That occurs very rarely though. In addition, to first time players and players with little prior knowledge on policing (aka myself), I kinda wish that the callout reminds you that you can check their flags on the police computer, as no other callout requires you to do that before you arrest them. That could be to my ignorance but a little pop-up or reminder helps. Person with the knife works most of the time, and I enjoy busting them strolling out there casually with a knife (or better yet, catching them on the act and/or watching victims also brawl back), but it occasionally bugs out and sometimes the criminal doesn't even actually carry a knife. You only get notified until you step out of the vehicle, but at least they react and either run away or stab you when that occurs. The rest work quite splendidly, however, and I love taking callouts from them, helping people in all sorts of need out. I enjoy the Hot Pursuit callouts, the best pursuits are from ridiculous vehicles such as the garbage truck, the golf cart, and the tractor, and I had hilarious moments trying to stop those very slow vehicles, and it also spices up the regular pursuit callouts from other random vehicles. I also very much enjoy being called to backup another officer in need, since I'm always the one calling for backup so it's great to repay the favor for another officer. Overall, Albo has made very fantastic mods, albeit with some rough edges here and there that I really hope to see improved, and I'll continue loving this mod as well as all the other work he has put out.
