Would you rather play as a cop or a vigilante?
>>
>>343049727
Depends on the game
>>
I want to play as a hip socially conscious young black male with friends of various minority backgrounds
>>
Playing as a cop while you have to work within legal parameters can be fun. Battlefield Hardline isn't a very good game but I did find it somewhat enjoyable how it incentivized you to try to disarm and arrest people rather than shooting every criminal in the face.
>>
>>343050032
Didn't someone say the black guy was gay?
>>
>>343049727
A cop, shit just give me another true crime game where you are actually able to do cop shit.
>>
>>343050083
no
>>
>>343050067
It would have to be some sort of indie game cause no AAA dev's going to greenlight a game where you can't shoot everybody in the face.

But yeah this could be a cool idea.

Detective. I want a good modern detective game so bad it hurts.
>>
>>343050224
vigilantes can do that too though
>>
>>343050149
yeah in Hardline you could just shoot everyone anyway except a couple forced stealth areas

I did find myself restarting a couple check points because I wanted to try and do arrests instead of have a shootout
>>
I would play a Judge Dredd open world GTA-style game where I can dispense justice to creeps
>>
>>343050083
Not yet.
>>
>>343050248
I want to say play the True Crime games but the first one isn't really all that detective-y and the second is glitched to hell and back. You could also just play the Batman Arkham games.
>>
>>343050265

robocop would be cool too.

Sheriff. Cop uniforms are gay.
>>
>>343050375
Yeah, but the detective aspect of the Arkham games is such a small part of the larger beat-the-shit-out-of-everything game. I want something like what L.A. Noire was supposed to be, or a less-retarded Deadly Premonition.
>>
>>343049727
I'll rather kill Cops as a Vigilante because they're nothing but racist pigs who kill innocent people all the time.
>>
>>343049727
cop
>>
>>343050392
but as a vigilante you get to dish out the justice for your own reasons and in any way you want, with no one to answer to. it's more personal.
>>
>>343049727
>tfw liked watchdogs even though it had flaws
>set up aiden pearce as "the vigilante" basically a hacking rorschach
>sequel completly replaces main character and athmosphere of the original.
fucking ubisoft, i was looking forward to Watch Dogs 2 but now it just looks like shit.
>>
>>343050149
Are you saying SWAT 4 is Indie?
>>
>>343050447
Robocop would be cool but the problem is he's kind of slow and his primary mode is scanning people then autoaiming them

Dredd wouldn't work in an open world game because he has an insanely strict code he follows to the letter. You'd need something like the last movie where you're basically in a giant shootout the whole time
>>
>>343050709
I suppose "highly niche" would be the better descriptor
>>
>>343050067
>new swat never
>>
>>343050740
Doesn't have to be. could make it more like the new one, and just give the player more options. that motorcycle would be cool.
>>

fucking moron

what the FUCK is L.A. Noire, huh?
>>
>>343049727
A cop because in Watch Dogs you play as a vigilante and I'm a contrarian faggot.

t.this whole thread
>>
>>343049727
I wouldn't mind a decent cop game. I fucking loved True Crime NYC desu.
>>
>>343050963
la noire has a bunch of moments where it stops being a detective game and you start just shooting people in the face
>>
I loved arresting people in Sleeping Dogs
>>
>>343050740
Just do something like assassin's creed, where if you kill innocent people you lose health-equivalent.

To make everything more reasonable just make a rookie trained by Dredd the main character, instead of Dredd himself.
>>
>>343050901
It's a PC-only release that released in 2005. That's absolutely "highly-niche"
>>
>>343049727

cop, but I'd rather play a crooked cop.

Where are all the cop games? This seems like an underserved market.
>>
>>343051126
Killing a civilian should be an automatic fail, stuff like lethal force on an unarmed suspect should also be a fail.

I don't want to be a SWAT guy either I want to be a cop
>>
>>343050032
It's almost like America is a melting pot of tons of cultures and ethnicities and you'd probably run into 50 minorities just tossing a rock down the street

You mean 5 weeks of paid vacation pending an """""""""investigation :^)""""""""""?
>>
>>343051883
not the case, whites, blacks, Hispanics.

arabs keep to big cities, same with just about every other ethnicity. cept asians, they're all over the place.
>>
>>343051951

No I mean a video game with set clear rules where instant fail states exist
>>
>>343051139
>I don't know it therefore it's not famous

Again, take your head out of your ass.
>>
>>343050963

L.A. Noire is pretty good until you have to take down an army of mobsters or latino gangsters etc. really ruins the immersion they were going for. the body count is actually ridiculously high in that game.

Between SWAT 3 and Urban Chaos, the genre has pretty much peaked.
>>
>>343052270

the actual investigating, questioning and interrogating is the fun part of the game. the shooting parts are all fluff.
>>
>>343052270
>>343052794
The immersion is also ruined whenever there's the usual "videogame" forced segment, like that awful treasure hunt mission in the Homicide desk, and when you have to do those platforming minigames.

It should have gone full 3D visual novel, if you ask me.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are making a sequel. These are the guys who made True Crime however - they don't make the best crime-based sandbox games.

Being an actual cop would be quite refreshing.

LA Noire taking shitty driving into account when rating your performance was hilarious.

>>343053138
>These are the guys who made True Crime however

Well, duh. Sleeping Dogs was True Crime: Hong Kong until they lost their publisher and therefore the rights to that series name.
>>

i'll tell you one thing
i wish there were more games where you are just a normal cop
like Police Quest, or possibly L.A Noire
Hardline doesnt really count
>>
>>343051323
fuckin mortar guy, man

>>343053138
True Crime had a different developer.

Oh god the True Crime games. So full of glitches that it was retarded
>>
>>343049727
a cop that goes undercover as a vigilante

Don't ever mention that name in my presence!

>>343053138
Technically, Sleeping Dogs was developed by Square Enix. It was originally called True Crime: Hong Kong but it was dropped by the original devs, then Square Enix picked up the pieces. Activision is the devs behind the True Crime series.
