[Implemented] Back Up (What car)

[Orange™]

When a cop asks for back up. Can it say what car he is chasing so any cop can go to pits maybe and get certain car needed to chase.

Just an idea.

Thanks.

Why couldn't they?

So like:

Orange is calling backup on BoyPower (FXO)

I like it.

Ahh now I understand. This was suggested earlier as I remember, but no changes were made.

Very similar suggestion here http://forum.city-driving.co.uk/showthread.php?tid=732

It's a nice idea, one I've often thought about. However I feel it has 2 major downsides.

1. Some cops may then refuse to join chases if (for example) then know the suspect is in an FZ5 upwards.

2. If cops can pit and get a faster and/or stronger car, it gives them yet another strong advantage over suspects (especially if 3 cops do this).

With that said however, there is nothing to stop cops simply speccing the suspect before joining and doing both of these scenarios as the InSim currently stands.

+1 simply

I do spec the suspect before hand if he is a new player as most players that come on TC usualy play with same car. Just thought it be handy but i can see your point it could be advantage over.

but if you read the last sentence you can have the same advantage just by speccing the suspect, so it makes no actual difference showing the car in the InSim. I like it, +1 btw.

Yeah I think it'd be a nice add aswell. +1 if it helps

[[TC]►Ras◄]

I do like the suggestion. +1.

[Kyllone]

yes, I suggested it before and it got alot of thumbs up apparently but nothing happened. Which is disappointing..

But again, +1

[James]

+1.


Despite me not copping much/at all, this would be a pretty good way of cutting down on the constant question on TS 'What car are they in'. When they could be getting told where the suspect is

Like josh said, speccing does work.
This is more simple and a bit quicker.
Would like to have this added !

Nothing to add, I approve of this. Benefits outweigh costs.

I like this idea.
