Several Call Suggestions

  • Few suggestions for calls to make better use of the units we have that are currently underrepresented or don't get enough calls:


    Armed Robbery: A call to an armed store robbery or similar invasion where a suspect uses a weapon to rob a business but doesn't maintain a grounds of hostages or similar. My experience with these calls is a SWAT response is not usually required, officers and K9 would be suggested.
    Require Vehicles:
    5 Patrol Cars
    1 K9


    Required stations: 6 PD (for k9)


    Expandable missions:
    Hostage Taken
    Stabbing



    Respiratory Distress: Our EMS units seem to be limited to assistance calls and a few number of responses. I'd like to see a few more regular run EMS calls
    Required Vehicles:
    1 Ambulance


    Required Stations: 1 Ambulance


    Expandable Missions: Cardiac Infarction


    Alarm Response[\b]: A low priority response to an alarm sounding at a place of business or a residence. The majority of calls would be a simple response, but would have a chance to expand similar to real world to calls listed below
    Required Vehicles: 1 Patrol Car


    Expandable Missions:
    Officer Down
    Break and Enter (See Below)
    Hostage Taken


    [b]Break and Enter: Calls can come in either as an expansion of an alarm response or alone, basically a suspect has entered a premise illegally.
    Required stations:
    6 Police stations


    Required vehicles:
    2 patrol
    1 K9 (50%)


    Workplace Incident: As much as people don't want to get hurt at work, it happens fairly often, and at least in my experience in other jurisdictions, there's a fairly standard response if the person has to leave by ambulance, whether they fell, got trapped or just chopped off a part.
    Required Vehicles:
    3 Patrol Cars
    1 Fire Truck
    1 Rescue (50%)
    1 Platform Truck (20%)
    min. 1x Ambulance


    Required Stations:
    4 Fire Stations


    Mayday: along the same lines as officer down, which we see a fair number of times, a mayday would be for calls requiring fire response. Mayday is the commonly used phrase by fire and rescue services when an incident occurs placing the rescuer in immediate danger and requiring help. Unlike officer down calls, multiple rescuers can be injured, due to the nature of pairing up in call response. Like the officer down, it'll be an imaginary employee, as if we took out a member out of your station every time, people would get real sick of it quickly.
    Required vehicles:
    1 Fire truck
    2 Rescue
    1 Battalion
    Min 1x Ambulance
    Min of 1 patient, with a maximum of 5.


    Required stations:
    6 Fire Houses
    2 Rescue Stations


    I'm also a fan of more planned responses. Right now I'm getting a lot of soccer games and assassination threats. I guess my people love their sports and love threatening politicians. A few suggestions for alternative planned events so that we're able to avoid the same few repeating.


    Hockey Game: Oh! Canada. Seriously though, I'd love to see this as another type of sport event planned. The major league games I've got to usually have a fair bit of EMS on scene (we hurt players a bit) as well as security.
    Required Vehicles:
    3 Ambulances
    3 Patrol Car
    1 Fire Truck
    Required time 3 Hours
    POI Required: Stadium


    Festival(Outdoor?): Here, especially in the summer, we have a lot of outdoor festivals and events. The winter has started to see many of their own as well over the past few years
    Required Vehicles:
    1 Patrol Car
    2 Ambulances
    2 Fire Trucks
    Required time: 3 Hours
    POI Required: Park



    Speed Trap: We all know cops love to hide and run ticket traps, or as they call them here "Targeted Enforcement Measures." Similar to a DUI traffic stop, you'd require several cars, but on a shorter time period, as these enforcement measures tend to get burned within an hour of setting up.
    Required Vehicles:
    5 Patrol Cars


    Required Stations: 5 Police Stations



    I figured I'd throw out a bunch of suggested calls so the developers have several options to choose from. I'm not expecting all or any to get implemented immediately, but I wanted to throw my two cents forward.

    I also make graphics for all my stations and areas. Interested? Hit me up, I might be able to help you out

  • I do like the calls you got up here mainly the Mayday and the Workplace Accident
    Now on the events, I do like the Game variant (Hockey) but these game events (in-game) have different police, ems and fire units requirements, so don't bother about giving the required vehicles, that's all xD
    The Festival idea though... really nice, I love it! Giving more variety (like the Hockey Game), I just have a question about it, how long would it last?


    Also, since you got some really nice ideas, do you have any ideas for an event that would require more (or only) EMS units? I think that would be a nice event since we have police/fire only event missions
    Have a nice weekend :D

    EMS only events, hmm. In addition I would also suggest things like:


    Kitchen Accident: Injured person in home kitchen accident. Could be a burn or cut injury for instance


    Unknown Illness: Significant illness such as a bad flu or worse, resulting in patient not being able to get out of bed


    Miscarriage: While often times something that will not require an ambulatory response, neither is a fever. Due to the nature of this type of incident and how scary it can be, patients may call for ambulance, especially if alone.


    Broken Bone: While you wouldn't call EMS for a broken bone in your arm, a compound fracture in the femur for example would warrant a 911 response.


    Mass Illness Breakout: A larger type call, could happen at a school or some other POI that has multiple people in close proximity. Requiring massive treatment and transfer of patients


    Bicycle Injury: We have bike path calls, lets do bicycle injury. Maybe the rider wasn't wearing a helmet (oh no!) or he was and still badly hurt himself. Fire would not likely be required in this type of call.


    Almost need to go through our 911 call logs and see what people call 911 for lol


    In regards to Mayday/Man Down or whatever terminology is used, the point is moot for me, I don't care if we call it an "oh sugar!" call, I just used terminology that was familiar for me. Maybe Man down would be more fitting if it's more common.

  • Mass Illness Breakout

    This gave me an idea for a call, Water Contamination! If this happened at a School POI or Hospital it could be a mass casualty scenario
    I have some more call ideas but I've been gathering them so one day I can make a post with a few more calls :D
    But I do like your idea to expand the variety of EMS calls

  • That's great to hear. I love playing the EMS units, and despite they're low payout calls on their face, they really aren't. Over the past month, Patient treatment and transfers has been my highest earner or second highest every day. I'd love to see some more of these little calls, as well as major casualty incidents that don't necessarily need 200x other units.


    I also forgot to answer so:


    Festivals would be around 3 hours I'd say, keep it in track with the other calls, and same for hockey games. I figure 30 minutes before and after game, plus 3 20 minute period with 2 intermissions and a half hour opener ;)

  • I like the sound of these. The sports call sounds great!


    Festival I'd probably send a quint and Rescue engine to just a small twist.


    Armed robbery sounds great too!

    Water Contamination, Would that require Hazmat?

  • Water Contamination, Would that require Hazmat?

    Yes it would, along some HRV/Utility Units to get acess to the water, also mobile command since its a Mass casualty, Batallion Chief and Firetrucks (not sure about numbers)

  • I know we have EPA somewhere in my county. And atleast three HAZMAT Rigs and a bunch of HAZMAT Containment Trailers spread throughout various stations in the county as well.

  • There are environmental protection, but not as first responders. Those situations it would be fire department HAZMAT units for the majority of those calls. Ministry of Environment or EPA vehicles may respond after, but not as a primary response.

    it could have a variety of calls like bike accident with entrapment, pedestrian struck by a vehicle, hit and run and the list goes on. I do like the idea for this mission

  • Do you have Environmental Protection Units in the US or is that done by Hazmat, here in the UK some places have both others don’t.

    We do have Environmental Protection police, but the actual incident response is from HAZMAT teams or third party environmental cleanup contractors. You're mostly looking at fire departments, EMA agencies, etc on these type of calls.
