(I meant to post this on the US forum, originally on UK one)

First off, id like to say i love this game and have been playing it for over 8 years but have slowed down a lot lately.

I love playing realistically, long with many other players, I build real stations and try to use real vehicles/apparatus also. But it has gotten more difficult to do so because of the calls the game has, some just require way to many units and playing realistically becomes to difficult.

I would love the option (and would even pay extra for it) to be able to turn off all the missions provided by the me, and be allowed to create and use our own missions/calls so theyd be more suitable to where we decide to play. (no more huge missions in places where real life would never happen).

and there would be ways to regulate it to prevent abuse such as:

-money; when missions are created, the less units and time needed to complete the call, the less its worth, the more units a call requires, so the more units you choose, the more the call is worth and the longer it would take

-create a minimum amount of calls the require only 1 or two units, this way people cant just make huge calls only to make money.

but this would allow people to play realistically alot more easy and they can customize it to fit the area they choose to play (big city vs rural)

I think this could still be exploited. For example you could just make one call that requires loads of vehicles and then continuously just use that one call to make money. I think also this would be a lot of work for the devs and not something they would do as it wouldn’t benefit them. You have to remember that they do this as a job.

As I said in the post.

Require a minimum amount of calls that have to be made and also have a minimum amount of calls that require only one or two units so they would be low paying.

And I understand this is there jobs, which means they should want to do what they can to make the game even better, and this is just that.

Or at least they can give us the option to turn calls off.

I'll note this down and go to the Devs about it. If it keeps up let one of us know.

Thanks,

Still happening

this is because of the evition standby mission problem. these misions dont show on the map or call log.

click a unit, then click the call that way and dispath a patrol car to clear it.

there is no reason there should be a max police helicopter count.

I need more than four with the amount of police stations i have.

The LAPD itself has more than 4. plus almost every other city in la county has its own police helicopter

yea i have it almsot daily

eviction standbys are not popping up in the call log. but when you click a unit, you can see it as a active call

in alarm and response regulations, its is assigning my sheriff units to calls even though i never checked the sheriff box in the alarm regulations.

Its recognizing the sheriff unit as a patrol car. if i wanted a sheriff unit on that call, i would have added it to my regualtion.

and i do realize the sheriff unit does act as a patrol but it should still not be picked when only patrol car is selected. just like how a k-9 unit is not selected when i pick patrol car.

look up the fire depts social media accounts, most have them and youll get alot of what you need from pictures they post

So I found out missions are available after obtaining 1 FBI Building. Certain calls are available when you get 8.

Thanks,

Rescue

Only 2 require one building, the rest require 3 or more. and even having 3 fbi buildings is a stretch especially for how much they cost. and most states dont even have more than one building in the entire state.

Yea i think with how much the federal building costs, its only fair that all the fbi missions become available once one is built. plus its alot more realistic.
No mission should require more than one federal building.

So we have this new FBI building and missions update and i love it and love the idea of it. but the problem is the FBI missions require up to 8 federal police buildings.

for one, they are very expensive to build to have that many.
and also most players like playing realistically and like building real places. IN the US, the FBI only has 56 field offices that are 24 hour response buildings. (See screenshot attached)
the entire state of California only has 4.

Basically what im asking is all the new federal police missions should be available once at least one building is made.

1. In the "active shooter" call ambulances do not cancel themselves automatically if not needed. (for the premium players using that setting)

2. This ones from the new sheriff update.the call "silent alarm triggered inside bank" call is set for the "high rise" POI. i believe it should be the "Bank" poi.

Curious if anyone only plays the game with just Police, no fire/ems building.

How do you like it? I'm thinking about just doing only PD and no more fire/ems. i like playing with real life apparatus and stations and the type of calls the game has makes that too difficult on the fire side of it.

yes to this idea, most areas have just police station that units patrol out of, so have Police alls be able to spawn around fire stations is much needed

any update on this? has it been brought up

Just like missions you have to wait for them to complete,

i think it would be much more realistic if ambulances actually took some time to clear a hospital and go back in service. not just immediately turn around right after getting there.

maybe like a 1-5 min. time out of service (still alot faster than real life)

My two cents:

I think a simple approach where we do only utilize one suggestion above will result in just delaying further complaints for a few days. The primary issue is that, per hospital, you can only get 24 open beds in single 24 hour period. I've also heard that the medical system in the US game is incomplete because the original dev got bored. I'm not entirely sure what else needs to be added, but I'd expect I'd recommend something as follows:

(A) Expand Hospital Capacity. I like Caolan's idea of various sized hospitals as it is quite realistic, especially if we can upgrade small -> medium -> large, for those of us who have hospitals that should really be larger than 30 beds.

(B) Add staffing requirements to hospitals. In order for the specialty rooms to be utilized after the expansion they must have the appropriately doctor / nurse to treat the patient.

(C) Instead of releasing 1 patient every hour, release times for patients will be based on their priority code, with A patients getting the shortest time in the hospital and E patients the longest. I know this isn't fully realistic, but it is probably the most easily implemented and easiest for the player base to understand. Patient times could be increased by 2% for additional staff that are available and not assigned to another patient. Once they are dropped off, the clock starts ticking!

(D) Add a mass casualty temporary expansion for major events. This expansion would cost $100k to unlock, but then could be activated at any time (with a 24 hour cool down). Patients delivered to the mass casualty ward would only gain 25% of their normal credit income to the player, but there would not be a limit on how many people the ward could hold.

(E) Medium hospitals could also be expanded into a University Hospital, where the staff could be trained instead of extra bed space.

Basically, what an approach like this would do is (1) expand the opportunity to have beds in hospitals, (2) adjust the discharge rate to be based when the patient went through intake as opposed to kicking them out 1 per hour, (3) allow for staff and training of staff in the only building that doesn't have a staff member assigned in game, and (4) still provide a mass casualty incident method for players whom maximum hospitals wouldn't be enough, but at a reduced reward.

Yes yes yes!!!

What do people think about this.

Each extension you purchase the more beds you get.

Such as if I buy general Internal I get an additional 10 beds on top of the 30.

I like that idea!
