Police Dogs?

[DeadZombie]

We've see and confirmed that dog npcs are in the game.

 

Now is this going to also be part of the wanted system for swat or police? Attack dogs?

 

Fruit for thought.

 

Don't care if they don't just send in a k - 9 unit. Gta is far from realistic. Get over it.

[MetalMilitia]

now that would be freaking cool ....

I read or heard somewhere that they do have dogs.

[DeadZombie]

A K-9 unit would really express the change in police Tactics in V like they explained. Riot shields tear gas. Ext

[tenpennyisplainevil]

Yeah, when they search the area for you, like in IV if you were unseen within the circle, the dog should pick up your scent. But K-9s should be rare, otherwise the cops would always find you (like in IV, ugh).

I'm sure it will be. I could see them sending in swat guys on SUVs alot but not dogs and riot shield guys.

That be sick if you could find where you saw that.

[Getzmunney]

hope not.. will just give excuse for police to magically find you

I can't remember where I heard it, but I think they said at 4 stars they will use dogs. Of course, I don't know if it was true or not though.

[tenpennyisplainevil]

Maybe exclusive to the military? That way you can't hide when on a 5 star streak, as you shouldn't be able to. But it would be weird to see every unit have a dog tag along with them.

[L.S.P.D.]

Would be great to have and would we be such a pain to escape from

It would most likely be a different colored circle with the red and white flashing circle that is the cops. If your in it. The dog will get closer. But to you can always hit from a far with a silenced weapon.

 

Another thing is maybe sweating is a factor? Or sound to them.

[EvilFuture]

I remember from that old supposed "leak" a long time ago that mentioned them. It said something like there will be police dogs, and you can go inside buildings and block the doors where they can't get in. Bunch'a bullsh*t

[Don_Corleone]

That would be pretty cool ngl

[LotusRIP]

Yeah probably, Far Cry 3 had attack dogs

[tenpennyisplainevil]

Not really, no. If that's what you call attack dogs then so are the coyotes and wolves in RDR.

[Dont_Mess_69]

I remember, I believe in late 2012, there was a discussion about police. It listed riot shields, tear gas, dogs, and SWAT rappelling from helicopters. How much of that will come true I can not say, but V certainly has the abilities to contain it all.

[Kiffster]

In one or two previews they said how they saw patrolling guards with dogs, so who knows? Maybe there are k9 units too...

[Sebor]

RDR's sherrifs, marshals and bounty hunters would hunt you down with several dogs (up to 4) so yeah it is highly possible

[RichyB]

This would make the 'line of sight' system utterly pointless.

 

Also it's food for thought not fruit for thought, dipsh*t.

Whatever fatass.

[Scampi]

I think there will be police dogs. The wiki says they were planned for IV but cut, so assuming that's true there should be no reason to keep them out of V since regular dogs are obviously confirmed. In my experience though police don't send out dogs too often, so maybe at 3+ stars would be fine. That's the level in IV you get for killing a policeman and when they really start to take you seriously. I just hope they keep the dogs realistic, maybe 3 per chase, and not endlessly spawning dogs. On the subject it would be cool if some of the police cars were marked with special K9 warnings on the side. I'd go out of my way to steal and keep a K9 car variant.

[RandomNoun]

I assume the police will use dogs in the countryside. It's going to be pretty intense when you ditch the car and go on foot through the forests, hearing the barking behind you, echoing in the trees, of half a dozen attack dogs closing in. It'll certainly discourage rampage camping like in previous games.

 

You come out of the trees, clear a fence, look back, take potshots at the glinting rows of teeth in the twilight. They're hurtling across the field. You sprint off towards the lake, dive in, make it to and climb into a rowboat as two panicking fishermen dive out. Panning the camera you see upturned heads, paws splashing, coming right for you. There are flashlights strobing along the bank, two helicopter circle nearby. More vehicles slide to a stop. Two speedboats, flashing blue and red are homing in on your location. Then: LOL NOPE. You switch character.

Yes it's possible, now that we got animals to slaughter
