Posting Bail.

[Enzzo]

I think the current system is great. It benifits both sides.

Cops can keep getting money and points for arresting while having fun (its a game) and it benifits the theif in a way that they can earn their thief achievement in a more efficient way...

So i like the current system.

P.S: I havnt even thought of starting my thief achievement so im not being biased.

+1 For current system.

When people had to sit out jail, they would quit the server, because they think it's boring and a waste to sit 30 mins in jail.

So this is a good addition.

This is a good change for both sides.

Ehy, what now the /breakout command is for? Everybody can now escape from the jail without the Rude Boy achievement.

thomas, u get ur point and ur money, when he steals again u have the chance to get  score/money again. So since ur rewarded with points and money for it and eventually ur police achievement, i think bailing out only benefits all situations.

The only thing that makes u kinda sad about this is because u want them to suffer for being arrested. But its a game thomas and its meant to have fun, sitting 16/32 ( old system) in jail isnt fun. maybe for the cop, but thats it.

So dont take it to seriously and if u think this still sucks.. try doing truck missions, its a truck server after all

Merry Christmas

Thanks Konali.  I never played for the money or the points, I have over 1000 arrests in my police car, so I have the achievement already.  I am sorry if I annoy people with posts about the police aspect.  But after 30 years as a Deputy, EMT and Firefighter I like to see those things involving police represented well and have a strong sense of honor and obligation where they are concerned.

This is a game for players to be convoy truckers.  When I first was introduced to the game, I thought the police element had an equal standing, thus making the game more "Real Life" oriented.  It allowed truckers to have to deal with real highway traffic laws.  I was VERY impressed that it didn't have the typical shoot-um up that the other servers had where the police were involved.  It had many elements of real policing which I found appealing.  I have discovered that before I started, it was even more realistic in that wanted suspects could be transported to jail.

I always thought the jail angle was great as it gave an element of risk to the thief profession.  Can I get away with it?  But that element has been stripped and now the only ones that do jail time for crime are new players that don't have an adequate bank account.  The maximum fine of $16000 can be made back in one Fuel mission to 3 stations.  Where is the risk in being a thief?  So now all the achievements can be obtained with no challenge other than drive time.
But as people are constantly pointing out, this is a trucking server.  The truckers just want to drive to and from objectives with no obstructions in between.  More arcade based than simulator.  Voicing opinions about the police aspect I find is frowned upon.

lol im that fat one on the right.

[droctogonapus]

why the fuck are you complaining bail means more money and arrests for cops so shut the fuck up if you don't like it

[ThomasKirkman]

Sounds like someone needs a hug.  LOL

[emokid]

thomas , not everyone thinks like that lol
the players who want the cop achievement will always be there, and people will be jailed again and again.

its not more money that bail doesn't go into the cops pocket so where ever are you seeing more money with this bail?

As a cop, you make more money writting tickets.  The only thing a cop gains is another chase and arrest.  That is why you see so many "Glory Hounds" in Infernus cars are running around.  Why be a cop the hard way?

More arrests = more money...

Anyway, a rather simple but often wrong quote: "if you can't beat them, join them".

Bail=Suspects become wanted again quickly. More arrests from these=more money for cops.
