Hey everyone,
Lately there have been a couple of complaints regarding shock and taser gun. Some claim that they are easily spammable and require little to no skill in order to use them, which is definitely true since all you have to do is type a command. There are also a couple of community members talking about shock gun being superior to taser gun (re-charge time etc).
We have been thinking about this for a while and we have decided to suggest something which is going to be a game changer in case it gets implemented.
Taze and shock are one of the most (if not the most) used commands on the server so please before voting be sure to think about it
properly, it will have a
huge effect on the gameplay.
The idea: What we are suggesting is to add a taser/shock gun (9mm silenced pistol or anything similar) to LEOs/criminals, meaning they would actually have to aim and hit the wanted/LEO with it in order to taze/shock. You will basically have to aim at them with your gun and press LMB. As for LEOs, they will be
forced to taze before cuffing someone. That also makes sense since you can't really apply cuffs to a criminal who is running/resisting unless they are immobilized.
Now, there are some advantages and disadvantages of this we have thought of. There might be more though:
Advantages:● Players with low skill will not be able to taze or shock someone easily since you have to be precise and be good at aiming. That means highly skilled players will stand out. Currently it requires almost zero skill to spam those two commands.
● This might discourage players to taze/shock as often as they used to, which led to taze vs shock fights.
● Ls-rcr is partially a role-play server and this is fully roleplay-ish. No commands are going to be used.
Disadvantages:● It will be harder to taze or shock someone.
● Sometimes you might end up tazing/shocking the wrong person if many players are running around/interfering. But that's all about skill aswell.
● It will possibly be easier for cops to arrest someone since criminals (that could maybe be fixed by shortening the cuff range for example)
However, that was just a suggestion by us. It might
not get implemented if many community members disagree. It's
just an idea for now, nothing more than this. You can also suggest alternatives if you have anything in mind, possible tweaks and whatnot. This is a discussion/suggestions topic regarding shock/taze. Those alternatives could be:
- Adding a shock reflector similar to taze reflector
- Make re-charge times equal
- Cooldowns on tazing/shocking
- Make it so criminals won't be able to shock whilst cuffed
Etc.

Please be sure to stay on topic and be serious. We will have to go through all the replies here in order to come to a conclusion. Also try to type everything in one message instead of posting a couple of times. Failing to do what was mentioned above might lead to a forum warning and/or section restriction.
