UK MC Units

    Hello all,


    As with anything a massive thank you for a UK Edition of the game and after playing since its start I'm happy with the ways are going. However as its me i have my thoughts and opinions as there is no separate forums i thought here would be best to tell all.


    For me personally i'd like to see a few changes and maybe some things added.


    Firstly some minor changes, i did notice some minor missions changes regarding Turntable Ladders requirements which was very well taken by the community "I hope". But for me some calls still need a little change.
    1st : Tanker Spill, reduced the number of Hazmat needed to 1 as i feel this is more realistic
    2nd: A friend of mine is having the same calls spawn over and over and this causing problems to clear them effectively. Myself personally being affected by Building Collapses spawning more than usual calls such as bin fire's.


    Next Units I'd like to see.
    1: Command Support Unit being added after say 10 stations and requiring staff training very much like MC USA, this would then make the command car more off a officer/station manager call.
    2: CARP(Quint) being added again as a reward for reaching a certain number of credits.
    3: Heavy Rescue Pump, this being similar to the Quint but being a Heavy Rescue and a Pump combined.
    4: Police Van, for now just simple 2 prisoner transport van as not many forces depending on the person's behaviour would be transported in a car,(Yes i know i could rename a car to van but thats not what I'm about)
    5: Patient Transport, yes i know we have the calls but most Trust have a dedicated fleet for transfers.


    Finally a few new calls wouldn't go a miss and off course there are tons and tons id love to be ported over from leitstellenspiel but i know it takes time to do these things.


    As always im open for anyone's opinions and or suggestions in the comments, and enjoy the game folks.

    agreed on the call editing and changes.


    Some features I would like to see added is the USAR teams and HART teams. There is also the option to add mountain rescue teams.


    Yes granted we can build and edit units so they respond like the above but I feel it would be better to add them as a whole unit rather then a name change.

    Yes HART and USAR are very good additions too.


    HART could be set up like the SEG building in leitstellenspiel by which it spawns no calls around it but can be used to store are IRU, Off Road vehicle and all there other kit. It can be used to Supplement calls but not spawn any specific to the stations like the others do.


    USAR I think should be built as a extension to the fire station, that way area's that have no USAR teams based there don't have the problems not being able to complete them. Saying that my Area's Major Rescue has USAR capabilities but no where near as much as the Government supplied units.

    An don't forget the Coastguard Rescue Teams

    Just a update i know its not a unit. But maybe the dev team could look into how cost increase's on stations are worked out . this is so people can plan ahead and save etc etc


    I'll edit this aswell now for what I'd like to see added into game.



    1, I'd like to see a dedicated airport fire station rather then a add on to a normal one.


    2, additional slots at air ambulance/police aviation so that we can have 2 based there and one vehicle slot at air ambulance for a rrv.


    3, dedicated HART/mountain/coastguard rescue services. (As above just a supplement station were it spawns no calls and there not 100% required on calls, but could finish the call quicker if they attended.)


    4,USAR stations an addition to a fire station but only aloud a max of say 2(as above)


    5, rescue engine/quint(carp) to become a reward unit for reaching certain rank.(as above)



    If anyone would like to expand please do.



    Thanks

    Ideally an Ambulance Training building should be added.


    HART should replicate their role as providing patient treatment and extraction where the normal ambulance service resources wouldn't be able to go. They shouldn't be copied over as just an extra heavy rescue, rather a requirement by some patients where appropriate - Road Accidents, Accident Involving a Buses, Fire in Hospital, etc...
    HART training for this should be added.


    The EMS chief in this game would need some other changes before being copied over as well - should also be renamed to Ambulance Officer.
    Rather than for just over 10 casualties, it should be added as a requirement for any multiple casualty incident and all cardiac arrests.
    Ambulance officer training should be added for this.


    Other resources that could be added:


    Critical care - In the form of an additional car and Helicopter
    Required by some patients with trauma specialization.
    Critical care training should be added for this.


    This is more in lines with UK way of working.


    Patient transport is a resource under the ambulance service, however they are not emergency ambulances. The current patient transport missions can be regarded as a doctor's urgent, which do require an emergency ambulance. It's not therefore appropriate to include PTS in a game about the emergency services.

    Im adding all these to my list



    The EMS rescue will probably be brought over, maybe with some other features just as a temporary measure and it probably will be the base on which to form HART. HART is definitely i want to see added, we would have to work out a system for HART to be properly utilised. Maybe patients could have a chance of needing HART so once the ambulance arrives on scene they can request HART for that patient. Ambulance Officer probably wont require training, not because of a realism point but for the same reason that the Fire Officer doesn't require training etc

    Noted, sounds good. This would be the ideal end point.


    The Fire officer doesn't require training?!?! I thought it was just a copied over Bataillon chief that required command training.

    on the note of specialised transport the german version has a few missions which can be treated by a doctor and ambulance combined but there is very small chance they request a helicopter to provide the transport. I think a lot of what we ask is doable once the new devs are fully home.

    No, fire officer doesn’t need training, it’s the same a battalion chief in mission chief US. It just had the name command unit when it was added. A proper ICCU will be added in the near future

    also if HART was added would be an extention on to the Ambulance Station or a dedicated building on it own. or could be just be one of those standard unit to buy but with training. like the fire service.



    also guys just thinking out loud here on this one. how about a mounted branch for the police service?
