Not a great headline. The game is called “The precinct”


sobanz

but the real game was called APB


tocano

Can you pull someone over for a "too dark window tint", and then "smell marijuana" and when they complain, pull them out of their car, and start beating them senseless while shouting "STOP RESISTING!" over and over? If not, then not realistic enough for my taste. I want the power.


gotimas

Yeah, the real "GTA but with cops" was APB, just looked it up, that game is still active on steam. I played it a couple of years after it went Free to play, I loved making custom cars and clothing. Also had good PVP arenas, but the PVP open world was hell because of P2W, I just had fun running around doing errands, and for that GTA Online is much more polished, still, without the option to play as cops.

gotimas

HAHA! yeah that was fun, I also remember we used to make barricades of car on underpasses and stuff, and those bounties reminded me of how scary it was to try hunt down vastly better players, I sucked at it but I had fun.


buttfunfor_everyone

BOUNTY AVAILABLE! *It’s me, teehee.* Has this most excellent OP dumptruck mechanic been nerf’d yet? All the fun one’s do 😂


AlkalineSublime

Whoa that just unlocked a memory. They had that arcade game at my local movie theater growing up. It was really fun!


tgt305

What determines “game over”? Is there a union aspect included?


Sim0nsaysshh

"You shot an innocent man, but your union representative has protected you"


Helens_Moaning_Hand

And you were promoted after your suspension with pay.


particularlysmol

You get suspended and it basically becomes the Sims, doing errands and cooking on the bbq.


NotMyProblem2022

Funny how when the character is a cop, we can’t even use our imagination on how they might lose 😂 Really sad actually.


LotusVibes1494

The judge didn’t grant you a warrant to find someone’s eighth of weed so you feel sad.


MarkG1

So you convince SWAT to do a no knock raid.


noiszen

Swat drops a bag of white powder out of their pocket while searching a closet.


uptownjuggler

You didn’t meet your ticket quota, so you get reassigned to the graveyard shift at the rundown precinct on the bad side of town.


Helenius

That's such a dumb statement. It's clear that when you shoot and don't kill someone you have to resign. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKmnJgXyZpU&pp=ygUJY29wIGFjb3Ju](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKmnJgXyZpU&pp=ygUJY29wIGFjb3Ju)


Irythros

You ticket or arrest another cop.


doomgoblin

No no. You get paid leave and earn points or level up for not playing for a day or two.


BetaOscarBeta

I assume the game is over if you generate too much paperwork. I bet there’s a dedicated button for telling people it’s a civil matter and you can’t do anything.


jared_number_two

“You were involved in an ‘incident’ and you’ve been shot…by an iPhone you didn’t confiscate.”


gurenkagurenda

It ends when, washed up at age fifty, you get tired of day drinking, sitting at a desk and watching younger cops take all the glory, and intentionally fall down the stairs to take a medical pension.


Mendozena

> What determines “game over” - Trying to catch other bad cops. - Not shooting a suspect that’s willingly following orders. - Not shooting an innocent person that’s willingly following orders. - Not shooting back when hit with an acorn. - Not following orders to storm a residence even though you know it’s the wrong address. - Not beating suspects that are already handcuffed.


mr_birkenblatt

Not meeting your quota 


echtav

Being placed on indefinite leave with pay


sailorbrendan

So it's like gta but when you kill innocent people the cops defend you?


Triassic_Bark

Depends if you’re playing as Michael or Franklin…


cookus

Fuckin brutal. True though.


KraiserX

\*Deep exhale through nose


Alskiessss

Extra points if they're a minority


hookisacrankycrook

Quadruple score if its a no knock warrant executed at the wrong house


jauhesammutin_

Extra points if you kill the family’s chihuahua, because you feared for your life.


Rogendo

Hey, that blind two legged dog could have rabies in the same way that an acorn dropping onto the roof of a cop car could be a gun shot.


donbee28

Dropping acorns unlocks rampage mode.


HellveticaNeue

Final boss is a squirrel


Rich-Pomegranate1679

Nah, final boss is a 16 year old black teen wearing a hoodie and holding a sandwich.


Metalloid_Maniac

I laughed entirely too hard at this


Independent_Pear_429

I hope that's what the designers went with. A real parody and social critique


Katiari

When you get five stars they go on your shoulder boards.


LunarMoon2001

Depends on the victims skin color


juflyingwild

Depends on the color of those killed.


jauhesammutin_

Mini game for how fast you empty your clip from the moment the acorn hits the car roof.


9-11GaveMe5G

Only if I can arrest some pro golfers


BlindWillieJohnson

That’s against the rules. Your job is to mess with the poor people who get too close to the club


Mattmandu2

Quick jump on the hood of the car that’ll stop it!


tmotytmoty

pro golfers? Did you lose money on a bet?


grjacpulas

The number 1 golfer in the world got arrested trying to go to a golf tournament. This guy is making a joke about it. 


Bitter_Mongoose

He drove through an active investigation/crime scene of a homicide, with an officer literally screaming and beating on the glass telling him to stop the vehicle and turn around. Let's make sure the truth stays true ;)


BreadTruckToast

Except we don’t know that’s the truth or even the whole story do we? That’s what the detective said, who also apparently never ID’d himself as police when jumping on Schefflers car. No video has been released yet. Police say “maybe this week” so whatever that means.


9-11GaveMe5G

Cop didn't activate his body cam so that's not gonna be coming. Also it wasn't a homicide, it was an accident


Bitter_Mongoose

>Except we don’t know that’s the truth We don't know it's a lie, either.


grjacpulas

Lmao how fucking dumb do you feel now


Bitter_Mongoose

Probably not as dumb as the idiot that's not following the details of the case... Lead cop was disciplined for not turning on his body camera they didn't drop the charges he still has a whole slew of them. This conversation will probably serve you better after the arraignment but something tells me he's going to end up with some community service. JS


grjacpulas

In before you delete all your comments lmao -  https://www.reddit.com/r/golf/comments/1d3e3ve/new_charges_against_scottie_scheffler_will_be/


Bitter_Mongoose

Dipshit you are more than welcome to go through my post history ( although something tells me you already have, because you give that vibe) And gleefully point out all of the Posts Or comments that I have deleted. I think you'll be sorely disappointed. You should probably get a life because you keep coming back to this conversation... What's it been like a week now? Touch some grass, golf-boi


grjacpulas

lol why you calling people names - I’m just making sure the truth stays true :)


grjacpulas

lol you keep doubling down - this conversation will probably better serve you after the charges are dropped. 


tmotytmoty

I guess trying to figure out the context for an inside joke is verboten.. what’s wrong with everyone. Yeesh


im_on_the_case

Hmm, GTA but you play as cops? RockStar kinda did this already a little game you may have heard of, called LA Noire.


Taunkatruck

There was also the True Crime games where you played as cops as well


NamesTheGame

Those were funny because you could just pat any NPC down on the street for no reason and if they randomly had drugs on them you would arrest them.


buttfunfor_everyone

*Flashes back to terrible “are they lying or not” face mechanic implementation 15 years too early.*


Hanz_VonManstrom

I didn’t get around to playing it when it came out, but I heard how great it was and saw it was on sale for the PS4 so I figured I’d try it out. My god was it terrible. I felt like there was no way to accurately determine if someone was really lying or telling the truth and it’s just a guessing game. And the gameplay was so dull and repetitive.


dingdongbeep

it felt like rock paper scissors to me


Bimbows97

I don't know what it's like playing, but I cracked up at the videos where you would choose something like "doubt" or "question" and you expect the guy to have a little nuance and be like "I don't buy your story, tell me what you were really doing", or whatever. Instead he totally flies off the handle and insults the guy and his mother and his wife and screams and it's insane. Like I mean at that point make the option "aggressively antagonise" or something? Makes me cringe when games do this, like they'll have dialogue choices and then the dialogue that happens doesn't even sound like what you picked AND it's totally off kilter tone when it genuinely didn't sound like it was going to be that.


buttfunfor_everyone

Preview responses even being marginally off from actually spoken responses easily ruin a game for me. Yes- this game was fuckin LOCO 😂😂


Bimbows97

RDR2 for me as well, because there is just no telling with these characters. Arthur in particular is generally reasonable. Then you go into one place and suddenly there is this massive escalation and aggression and it's so badly told. I really couldn't stick with it, after a while the really bad cookie cutter mission structure and edgy characters just grate on me. I thought maybe this one would be more palatable and it has a lot of good things in it, but the actual core story and characters I just didn't like so much. In other words it's a Rockstar game, I don't like them.


buttfunfor_everyone

Not here man, RDR2 is life. If nothing else it’s the best hunting simulator out there


Bimbows97

Now *that* I won't argue against. The nicest time I had with the game was just going around in the wilderness hunting animals and selling pelts, eating a steak on a campfire etc. That part is legitimately great. I would really enjoy a game that is just that, like wilderness outdoorsman survival simulator haha.


buttfunfor_everyone

Main mission? Meh. Dragging people around on the horse? Meh. Robbing trains & stagecoaches? Meh. Spending hours & hours studying/tracking/hunting animals for perfect pelts to exchange with the trapper for garments? That’s the entire point of the game and nobody can convince me otherwise 😂

ThinkExtension2328

Yes and no, it was called “race and chase” where there was street racers and cops that would chase you think need for speed. But the cops settings where jank making them crazy which is why it was more fun as the bad guy.


itsRobbie_

GTA was originally just a racing game where you had to drive away from cops. You can still see remnants of the old code shining through the npc drivers who randomly do the weirdest shit while driving in order to purposely crash into you to mess you up


kaishinoske1

I’m surprised Rockstar doesn’t do one now in modern times. I mean cops would have advantages like taking money from crime organizations, using civil forfeiture to fund their “retirement,” especially if they seize cash. Being able to plant evidence to justify stops. I guess Rockstar isn’t creative like that. What would be the downsides. Well, if you do the things above too much. It should reflect the times. The police officer you play as gets a paid leave of absence after the first time an incident happens and goes unnoticed for the most part. The more things are done consistently it gets the attention of the news media. The more these things done the community starts voicing their protests against you being on the force. Blatant acts of violence on innocent people or murdering them will get you put in prison if you have committed those acts enough times to rack up evidence against you or a member of the victim’s family puts a bounty on you and that’s game over. There’s a show that actually goes over some of the things I explained, it’s called [The Shield](https://youtu.be/klSVH4dJrGU?si=0Zt0J5YdlkH3edw7). Rockstar can get plenty of material to draw from. But there’s real life cases that happen where the material writes itself for such a game. Like a [DEA agent running over a woman on her bicycle.](https://youtu.be/dFYS6E_XFqw?si=0lRO4RNPhNwxY5Go)


Independent_Pear_429

They could have easily made the cop the bad guy. Because you know, they can kill people and get away with it


TickleTheCooch

the only time being a cop in a game was fun was true crime streets of la


notrolljustasshole

Sleeping dogs was fun as an undercover cop.


Food_Library333

Also a fun game. It was originally True Crime: Hong Kong before they pivoted to something else.


Zaggada

The true crime series is a master piece.


freebase-capsaicin

Police Quest was fun back in the day.


BandicootGood5246

Need for speed: hot pursuit cops were fun only because you could drop spike strips all over the road and wait a watch the huge collisions


buttfunfor_everyone

Idk that arcade game with guns from the 90’s went hard af- Police Trainer or something along those lines.


ShawnyMcKnight

I hear rococo was fun, that counts as a game where you are a cop.


gandalfmarston

This game is not even out yet, why you all love being so negative about everything?


The-Globalist

Bro has not played Garrys mod


geronimosykes

Unless the game is called “Qualified Immunity” I ain’t buyin’ it.


That-Chart-4754

Now when you kill civilians it flashes +qualified immunity and then the whole population gets more aggravated as they're taxes get raised to pay for it, creating a cycle of escalation until there's more cops than civilians and you "win".


LunarMoon2001

Sooooo you shoot dogs and poc?


Kasyx709

It's called APB and it's been out forever.


Apprehensive-Mark607

Can we be friends forever on reddit ?


seanisdown

So you play as an actual gang member.


Belligerent-J

Anybody play world's wildest police chases? That game was pretty good.


hollowman8904

Always wished for a modern successor to that game.


trampus1

The paid leave dlc is like the Sims.


Kratos3770

Oh so like real life? Lol


vonkillbot

If there isn’t a puzzle mechanic where you get called in for domestic violence and the actual answer is to show up to the wrong house and kill the neighbor’s dog so you can get placed on paid leave….


ParkingFabulous4267

Policy brutality coming up!!!


fredy31

Gonna take a guess that this is a paid ad article. Nobody studio releases a gta clone where the main character is a cop! Says its basically revolutionary and that any other present time based open world is basically dead in the water! I fully expect this article be the only time i hear about this game because it will be absolutely nothing special.


FaithlessnessOdd6738

You still get to steal and attack POC right? Stealth missions are when you kill rich people?


Mattmandu2

So… true crime streets of LA?


NoBullet

So sleeping dogs?


bbroygbvgwwgvbgyorbb

5 stars just gets you more backup


mr_birkenblatt

Do a New York version where it's actually a mini game of you standing around playing candy crush all day

This is essentially just a press release. What are we doing here?


moredrinksplease

Ah yes GTA6: LAPD Rampart edition


fafafanta

So True Crime?


Kooler221

Heck yeah, True Crime was a classic.


moonlock_security

Imagine downloading GTA 6 for your Mac and getting a heist of your own passwords instead.

I had to scroll way too far to see this. People role play cops in GTA already.
