killahmatic Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Was it honestly a good idea for rockstar to make it so that you have the option to be arrest once the cops bust you? i mean come on, how many people are actually gonna pick the option to be arrested lol but whats your opinion on it?

.Up&Coming. Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Sometimes if there's a bajillion cops around you, and you can't find a way out, being arrested might be easier. I bet getting away won't be too easy, either. You probably have to be pretty quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gta-guru Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 On higher wanted levels the cops arent going to try to arrest you, they are trying to kill you, so it should all work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet getting away won't be too easy, either. You probably have to be pretty quick. And just what benefit does it have to just surrender? ... Less wanted stars. Plus, you can search the police department for purple dildos. Why wouldn't you surrender? Kidding. I know what you mean. I probably won't. And same with the guy above, the arresting thing probably won't even happen with higher star levels. I think Rock* just added it because it got so damn frustrating when a cop got to you when you didn't even get a chance to break away. It's just that much more convenient.

DDR Midian Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 One of the recent previews said you get to keep your weapons when you die, so bearing that in mind... and assuming that being arrested does lose you your weapons, surely it'd always be better to fight to the death? There's gotta be a plus side to choosing arrest over death, hasn't there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SerenUnderdog Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 i'd rather get busted than killed , i hated dying and i think the first time i walked out of the hospital in VC was after i finished the story ( iwould reload my game everytime i died) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J*meSta™ Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Your thinking of it wrong its not giving you the chance to be arrested it gives you the chance to escape before you get arrested. I like it compared to a cop just pointing a gun at me in an open car and then im downtown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanity_sanity Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Yeah, you get a chance to get away. it's PRETENDING to surrender. good point ^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Up&Coming. Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I'm wondering if the cop opens the door if you'll get a chance to drive away. I guess we sort of already had that, but sometimes it didn't seem possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vomica7 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 youll probably only get to break away once because after that they will be trying to take you down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet getting away won't be too easy, either. You probably have to be pretty quick. yeah, you dont wanna be stranded without a car, your basically a dead man. maybe being arrested is a good thing. like say if there are two cops after you, one gets you on the ground, the other holds a gun at you, if you get up to run, he will most likely shoot.

Yeah, I remember reading somewhere that if they get you with your hands up, they won't fire unless you make a run for it. Plus, with new, improved AI, I'd probably rather get busted. I suck at getting away from cops anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J*meSta™ Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I think I was pretty good at escaping cops, kinda just like in real life. But I think in this game its gonna be a lot better than the last ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobojoe4eva Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I guarantee you they'll make sure there are pros and cons to each situation. I think it was mainly so you couldn't like fall over then instantly BUSTED lol that always sucked, so did the car ones but those were fair...

SpikeIV Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Perhaps there is an advantage to "giving up" oposed to just being killed. First it's much more realistic, second you may get out cheaper and perhaps keep your weapons oposed to having them confiscated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
