steveox1961 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I ran though red lights when cops are there speed down the highway saw cops trapping even saw a motorcycle cop with radar gun.

GamesBoy316 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I don't think the game is going to be fun if it's really realistic. The cops are already a pain in the a**.

steveox1961 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 So what? When cops pull you over you pull off let them chase you or when they ask for your license and registration you pull off let them chase you or when they approach you then you shoot them. Ill bet you lots of people would get a kick out of this because in Real life you cant shoot cops for pulling you over.

Osho Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I swear, the obsession to make the series feel more real, look more real, and play more real is f*ckin ruining the fun out of it. Games like Mafia make sense but GTA is all about breaking the rules.

Luna 51 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) And in the first one City Of Lost Heaven. Hell you even get wanted just for pulling out a gun and you don't target. Very realistic (not sarcastic). No I wouldn't want to receive a wanted level for speeding (Maybe as a mod just to see if you are patient), I don't think R* will take it to that level.

Osho Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 And in the first one City Of Lost HeavenSo? Mafia is a masterpiece thats meant to give you a different kind of experience than GTA. A more realistic portrayal of the crime and life in the city. It can't be taken as a con ( or negative thing ) rather it does that brilliantly I have ever experienced in a video game.

Aikor Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Tht wud make it more harder than u think but in GTA IV i remember the cops making a high pitched siren for a second when I sped past a red light at high speed when the cop was kinda near me..but he wont fillow but yea for gameplay purpose they did tht or else it wud be boring and a pain in the ass to stay in a light just to prevent cops Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/770607-why-wont-police-pull-you-over-for-speeding-or-any-other-traffic-v/#findComment-1067060071 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totallycasual Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Yeah in a world where the cops execute you for so much as touching their cars i cant see the point in speeding attracting cops, they execute people on sight for the most minor of infractions as it is.

TheTechPoTaToCHIP Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 It was a pain in the ass in Mafia II and it's gonna be a bigger pain in GTA V. Why do people enjoy these? This and having to refuel cars. Why? It is f*cking annoying in real life so why in the holy mother of all that is f*cking holy would you want it in a video game!?

OurJud Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Considering how painfully easy it is to get a wanted level, and how long it takes to get rid of even a one star level, would you really want that crap? Depending on if I'm in a RP mode, yes, I would want it. Best case scenario would be to include it as an option: 'Traffic violations - on/off' In fact, I'd like nothing more than a complete overhaul of police behaviour in this game. Give us a simulation mode, where cops pull you for speeding and running red lights, but at the same time, never open fire unless you do first (or give them reason to suspect you're about to). I find it a complete immersion killer to have cops empty their weapons into you just because you jacked a parked car in their vicinity.

The Green Sabre Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 ^ Oh boy! And how about the cops try and stop us for littering? Maybe have the famous hunger feature return, and add fuel? Being realistic for the sake of it isn't always that fun, you know. I'd prefer to have R* divert those resources into something that's actually fun.

Fuzzknuckles Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Because it would suck the fun and life out of this game in seconds.

The Green Sabre Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 ^ For once, I agree with you. Why the hell would someone want GTA to replicate some of life's most inconvenient things? Even if it was optional, wouldn't it be more ideal if those resources were diverted into more fun areas like side missions and minigames?

DEERxBanshee Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) Because you don't have a speedometer on last gen or any previous installments and this game is not meant to be realistic.

But when you assault,shoot or rob people then they come after you. Go figure. Is there really a cop with a radar gun? I saw a cop near Franklins LSC standing next to his motorbike who looks like he's aiming one out at the road, but on closer inspection it's just a mobile phone made to look like he's aiming a radar gun checking speeds...better then nothing though, Is this what you saw or is there something I've missed?

SmokesWithCigs Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 i suppose you would want to get out of your car and exchange insurance information when you get into an accident. or have to appear in traffic court when you get a speeding ticket. realism, a surefire way to take the fun out of the gta series.

Prodigalsunz Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I wouldn't mind being able to pay a ticket/bribe when on 1 or 2 star wanted level. So instead of trying to lose the cops, you would have the option to pull over, pay the bribe and be on your happy way.

So instead of trying to lose the cops, you would have the option to pull over, pay the bribe and be on your happy way. It would be annoying if it happened to often, and doing what this troll of a poster suggested would be too much and too often. I remember playing Mafia after III and Vice City.. of course, not being used to following rules I'd be stopped 4-5 times on a single mission due to some small traffic violation like speeding or running red light. Somehow, that thing actually worked well for Mafia.. but Mafia is something different, completely story driven and it's free roam is completely uninteresting while in GTA it's all about that great fun free roam element.

fac316 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Maybe if the cops couldn't catch up with a high powered sports car, and getting rid of wanted levels didnt last ten whole minutes then maybe this wouldve been a good idea.
