The problem with locating the suspect first is that someone will probably join before you get the chance. You also have to abide by the speed limit and you can't use sirens to get to the suspect quickly.

Agreed. The fact is that people do spam !join and that if you want in a chase, you don't have time to locate the suspect, drive to the suspect, and then join. Especially without sirens, and with some suspects who like to do u-turns randomly and such, you'd be lucky to be right at the chase when the cop requires backup.

So with that in mind, I'll rather give the closer cops the opertunity to have a "dibs" on backup call the first 10 sec's, so the "spamers" wont be rewarded.

Good coping is planing and strategy, not "jump the gun for a chase"

This is a better insim feature, instead of a workaround for the "gunners"
