V4B1 potential

[Pollux]

Cops only had USPs and the sergeant had a MP5 before the locker system. SRU had UMPs if I remember correctly.
Though returning to that kind of system would shift the balance way too much.

I don't think it would at-all, government won raids before the update and they can do it again

We're not returning to the old system as the current one is balanced. Cops shouldn't have a big risk as they also don't have a big reward.

On the topic of V4B1 I think it will solve the two main issues with V2D, the constant fighting and the horrible passiveRP locations. The mainstreet on V4B1 is amazing and modern, it suits our needs quite well.

how can you say that cops and SRU getting free everything is balanced? 

What do they get? contraband destory money, high as salary, can ticket people for money.

They are police they don't need M4's to do their job.

So? Criminals get 20k an hour with just a full set of contraband, even more if they have a few pots. You can take hostages and mug people too. If it wasn't for the ECM jammer revert some criminals were making 600k an hour. It's balanced. If you go Corleone or Rebel you will also get a good salary alongside contraband, weed and hostage money. Criminals have a high risk but a high reward, cops have a low risk but low reward. They need to be able to fight each other on even grounds for balance and I think it's fair as it is.
