Does Swat AI actually use tasers?

I haven't seen them use their tasers or pepper spray yet except from the dev log

They can, but it seems you have to specifically order them to when using the AI interaction menu. Look at an NPC - command menu - deploy

The suspects are so dangerous and unwilling to surrender I don't even bother with a taser.

I ran a riot shield+pistol with a flash light and a member of my team had pacifier. Pointing the gun and shouting commands= instant surrender on Ideas of March. Felt like a swat game! Though outside of that, I get them to surrender easy enough. Just break their morale.

Some maps you can do it, but towards the end of campaign you can't do it unless you get lucky.

That's when the Beanbags come out

I agree with Quil, that's where your gear comes out. With how easy it is to carry a taser now, there.. really isn't an excuse not to use it. Especially when it is 100% effective in my gameplay.

I think people also aren't using the suspect commands as much as they should. Commands like turn around basically make it they won't fake surrender, though there is apparently like a 0.05% chance they will try.
