Suggestion - Allow Police to use M4

[D Castiel]

I dont support it as i agree with Freezak and Enzyme

If there is an armed robbery, rather than the officer running into the crime scene, He would radio in and ask for the Armed response unit. Also it is very difficult for people to get firearms in England unless it's contraband.

Finally In England We have fewer accidental police murders due to the fact that firearms are only used when needed.

Strange how quite a few people work off of the assumption that EvoCity is located in the UK. Last map released by the developer (I believe that was Evocity_v4b1) had an American flag flying in the industrial area. Just saying. We should all really stop jumping to conclusions on Evo's location and how the officers would be armed therein.

Police has access to good enough weapons, mp5 should be enough, most of the times it's even better for me than M4 but that doesn't matter, we might aswell gradually give police more weapons one by one, but i see no point in this. Police got additional weapon - shotgun, and that's enough. -Support

I'll go ahead and say it. The MP5 sucks ass, and the shells from a shotgun ingame turn to cotton candy at the ranges a rifle should be used in. I'm also going to point out another in-server issue that an organized and effective team of SRU officers aren't always on standby, leaving the regulars to fend for themselves.. and I could say it again, every squad car in my town has an AR and a shotgun in it, though I'd say that trend started with park rangers.

Time to draw the line with OPness with the police in-server. We don't need them equipped to the teeth, then where would be the competition? The SRU team would be completely pointless! I wish we could have M4s, but I also wish for competitive play, granting M4s to officers just is not the way to go.
If anything, we should REMOVE MP5s from the police force and keep shotguns, and give SRU teams true meaning (Not saying we should remove MP5s as they suck regardless.)

The cops would be too much like SRU. The cops should have the SRU as backup and rely on the SRU to come in with "the big guns" when needed.
The M3 shotgun and MP5 are fine. Especially when you have 3-6 Police officers equipt with one of these weapons.

Very nice, but most of the cops from other countries don't, it doesn't matter that every squad car in your town has an AR. To keep it realistic and make actually some difference between police force and SRU, they shouldn't have access to it on FL. Evocity is not USA, i think police force should look like regular force looks like and do their BASIC job. For more dangerous situations, SRU should be called. It's alright how it looks like right now, nothing needs to be changed, they got already a shotgun, enough. By the way, for me the MP5 in-game is pretty nice, at least for me, IRL it's standard-issue weapon for many police forces in european countries and not only, police in my country is using AKMS, doesn't mean police here must get access to AK.

I have cops in my immediate family and they all use m4's.

You should better think what M4 access for cops will bring to the server or tell some really good benefits of giving such access. Cops in my country are using AKMS, HK416, G36, Uzi, Ump and much more, doesn't mean they must have access for these weapons in game.

So if we give cops M4s... What will the difference between SRU and police be? SRU are supped to be heavily armed while cops are supposed to be lightly armed.

This is to give balance and make more clear differences between the governmental jobs.
