What do you want to see out of the Los Santos Police Department?

I’d like to see the PD be split between armed and unarmed Officers for realism. Pursuits nowadays don’t really happen, so there should also be very heavy moderation on allowing police to chase people. 90% of cops should be unarmed IMO, and there should be a focus away from policing people IC to allow actual powerful organizations like OC to control the city. Any dangerous situations should also be avoided as PD needs to rp fear of losing life.

This has to be a joke. You expect the GTA V version of the LAPD to maintain an unarmed police force. This isn’t the UK buddy. They’re imitating the LAPD on a map that is supposed to be Los Angeles.

I agree with this. As a fellow US citizen, this is exactly how it goes down. All cops shouldn't have a gun.

Yup, on a SIMS 4 server maybe.

 

I woud like to see balance between off duty and on duty roleplay.

I dunno how it goes in your state, but in california, every cop gets a gun, it's mandatory, too dangerous for them to not have one.

It's been said but what I'd like to also see is cops RPing their characters and be able to take loss just like all other players do. Don't be hard on other people having some OOC dislike towards illegal RPers and feeling like punishing them IG because it gives you a good feeling, this is not a real life job, it's supposed to be fun for everybody so if you make it fun for the illegal roleplayer they will actually want to roleplay more with the cops and interact with them more, keep that in mind.

 I understand you point of view, but things you offer may work in certain European countries where they don't have many OCGs/Gangs and they don't pose a threat to an officer or society. However,  in USA and other countries, there are lots of criminal minded people who are armed and pose a real threat to others very often. So, I think that your idea won't work on LS-RP, because Los Santos is based on USA, LA and there's no peace on the streets.

If you aren't going to be serious, then please don't comment in the thread 🙂.

 

Also, if an Officer would be taken hostage, of course they will RP fear of losing their life.

Sorry my feedback bothers you. Good start! Anyways, the faction should cater to the illegal community imo. Nobody likes play to win, please consider a play to lose approach with illegal favourability in mind. You asked, i offered my opinion.

It's been a looooong time since I RP'd with the LSPD on LSRP! I like the idea of the station itself being manned at the front desk, y'know for people to actually call in and report crimes or ask for help etc. Back in t'day the actual PD itself seemed quiet at the front, with most RP going on in interrogation rooms or what-not. Maybe hiring civilian staff for the front desk? Not sure whether civvy positions are something you're considering or already doing. 

 

I also remember that, when RPing as a journalist, I was heavily reliant on the PD to be open and share comments etc rather than just "no comment, bugger off and leave us alone" sort of thing. On World they often held press conferences and seemed very open about what was going on - this felt realistic and gave the civ RPers something to go to and do. 

 

Otherwise I think that, given this is a fresh start for you all, just try things and see what happens. Looking forward to seeing how things go, best of luck!
