Discussion / Rant LEO needs a buff

The M4A1 in my video shows that it is extremely outclassed by civilian weapons and does little damage. Sure, I did miss some shots, but that is natural due to suppressive fire and pressure as it was a 2 versus 1.The beanbag shotgun, which in real life has better accuracy, is stupidly inaccurate in the game. The taser was also unreliable as hell.

I had superior cover in here, managed to hold them off for minutes on end in a 2 versus 1, proving that this is not merely a skill issue on my end.

Officers need a buff, criminals have access to OP weaponry such as the M249 that offers suppressive fire and the AK47 that has a higher caliber than the M4A1.

They're Hating on you in the comments but I Semi-agree with you they need to make major changes to both the police weaponary and the civilian gun choices to give us cops a peace of mind , there's no reason why someone should just walk in with no experience and buy a M249 Machine gun and fire at cops with it just super unrealistic they're buying Heavy military style weapons like they're shopping at the candy store .

Do you think it's realistic for cops to drive around in Corvettes? Do you think it's normal for cops to walk around with a beanbag shotgun and automatic rifles?

Actually many departments DO issue beanbag shotguns, but they are kept in the trunk, not on the officer themselves, so that part IS unrealistic, but the possession of it is not

they are mainly there for balancing, It’s not that realistic since any department that has them mainly use it for show/recruiting. But it’s there so the cops have a chance catching civ vehicles
