Suggestion headline: Add Fireman Skill
Picture: Keep the picture in this Importance of suggestion: 8/10
Why should it be accepted: I guess you could understand how this thing will work easily, but, I will do a brief on how I personally think it should be.
Fires randomly start in specific locations around the map, firemen have to put it out.
For instance, if a fire occurs in the pizza in Idlewood, the place will be un-robbable and inaccessible until the fire is put out.
We can go into little details into the comments.


Now with the whole V2, I think it's time to reconsider doing this. It could add even more spice to the server.
This has been suggested twice, once by me in 2014 and once by fury in 2017, you can read the posts and find more info there.

Thank you.

I actually suggested something like this too...

Should note this suggestion was poorly thought out and written, I was very new to Ls-rcr at the time. But I truly think this could be done. Rather, a combined task for Medics and the new Firefighter class. I wouldn't really make them pick. Most firefighters are medics, and many medics are firefighters. I'd say just call the medic class firefighter or first responder, then add in jobs/missions as you like, and a new place for them to spawn. Los Santos doesn't actually have a fire station (SF/LV both do) but it's not hard to map/make one, and we could add a nice selection of vehicles into it for the task. I gave a few ideas for the tools in my suggestion, but while it needs reworked, I still think it's a valid idea overall.

If this gets approved, I would like to request to personally assist with the dev team as I actually am an IRL firefighter and can help make the idea very realistic.

People will abuse the firetruck and the fire extinguisher.

No one will use this class. It’d be a waste of time for the devs as they have much higher priorities right now.

I've added a poll and deleted the useless +1/-1 replies. Only reply if you have something to add, refer to viewtopic.php?f=620&t=50556

+1, we have fire trucks and fire extinguishers and we can use those to add more enjoyment to the server. Just like trucker class, you do the job mostly alone.

Very wrong to assume that no one will use it, it has never been on the server, occupation and gameplay like this can be fun to some people, exactly like many other occupations and skills around the server, trucking and rain22 for example.
They sure do have higher priorities, but I truly believe that now is the time to insert such updates, can be a huge addition to the update and the roleplay scene of the server.

There are many solutions that can solve this.
And there are countless abusable objects and vehicles in the server, that's not an argument.
A very good example is the SWAT van for the LEOs, abusable too but it's there for years, no problem.

I think that adding different variants of "drive to cp, interact with inanimate object, repeat" are not the best gameplay choices. This would not have any player interaction outside of people that may be in your firetruck as is, if I'm understanding correctly, and these are the things that should be prioritized higher imo.
