Police vs rioters equipment

[[fFp] Moathib]

Hi guys !

I find the rioters equipment quite easy to understand, for two main reasons :

• Every item is different, with evocative names and icons.
  
• There are tips explaining how they work

Police gears are, regarding to those two aspects, quite different. You have no icons, just technical names. And no tips. So you have to way to know what kind of gun/stick you're using, or why you should choose this one rather than another. And it seems that some guns are really, really similar.

So it feels like we can't take advantage of the equipement we choose. It looks like policemen are pimpable, but that it won't really make a difference. You just have to choose the gun or the stick with the more badass name.

YES i agree with you (not with some guns are similiar because some are long range and some are close range but anyways) i would like to have some explanations what the 24inch baton does and compare to another baton!

I do agree that, aside from the point cost (which tell you that a wooden stick won't be as effective an extendible baton), it's quite puzzling to understand what's the difference between them.

As for the ballistic unit's weapon options, the various Smoke grenade luncher would need to have an explaination on their difference. Also, rubber bullets apparently kill with the same ratio as live ones (if not more!).
