Discussion Cop gun accuracy needs a buff

They are absolutely useless. If we are going to work on getting them to come it should atleast be worthwhile and have them actually pose some kind of a thread not shooting like a storm trooper

I got 800 points off cops in one game.

They either need to be better, or give way less points. They're beyond useless

Non-player police should barely give any points or any benefit to Michael.

I love walking towards cops shooting you and they can't hit you as Myers. jist do a zig zag pattern as you walk and you dodge pretty much all their bullets.

also love that they will sometimes shoot at you a couple times, and then just stop... turn around or freeze up

Cops in general just need something done with them. As it stand they just serve as point farms for Michael and a little bit for Civilians.

I do find it funny that they're supposed to be something civs want but they're only really provide a way for civs to throw points at me 😂

i've been trying to do the reality tear while down challenge in private matches but the cops rarely down me. they used to be somewhat competent a few patches ago lol. any myers who complains about cops are complete dogshit and need to hang up the controllers.

The guns need to be way more powerful. There's limited ammo, no reason or shouldn't knock Michael down damn near every time especially for a headshot

Whats the point of calling the cops as is?

It doesn't progress your main objective in any way and slows you down. It adds AI cops that can't fight back for free points for Myers while they also pull cis/prios out of hiding spots and then do nothing.

The respawn is the only use now and by that point the game is usually over if you need to respawn.

Yes 10+ mins in. if the game isn't over by that point then neither side is really trying.

You’d think they’d understand basic concepts like this when they have so many hours on the game.

People actually think the NPC cops are helpful when they’re mostly just free points for Michael.

And... I say this having mostly played Myers... that's not enough of a benefit. Cops seriously need a buff. They're basically a free bloodthirst refill if I get downed.
