Suggestion: Dispatch Additions & Vehicle Equipment Slots

[admjmaddox]

Being an actual (Previously) Volunteer Firefighter & 911 Operator... I'd like to suggest a few things that could prove interesting. Of course these are suggestions that I would think would make this game even more 'edge of your seat' frustrating while also being 'edge of your seat' fun.

For what I've played so far, this game is already epic and could even become the catalyst to help actual agencies test out applicants to test their mettle and multi-tasking skills for actuall employment opportunities in real life...but I digress..... Here's my suggestions.

1: Dispatch Additions:

A lot of times the people out in the fields contact dispatchers for extra information. I'd love to see the addition of having police radio in dispatch to check for warrants. I'd love to also see responding units to radio for directions as if their on-board gps units were not giving proper directions (as they do sometimes in real life)

2: Vehicle Equipment Slots

I'd like to see Equipment Slots added onto the vehicles in game...

Example: Store 'Jaws of Life' or Medical equipment on the Engine / Truck itself so that the staff can access the equipment wil on calls and allow the slots on staff for equipment like Bunker Gear and SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus). This will allow the staff access to more equipment and make the calls 'more efficient' and faster resolve times. In turn this would also allow better efficiency for Operators to dispatch to calls already waiting sooner.

This would also go for LEO (Law Enforcement Officers) and EMS (Emergency Medical Services).

Example 1: LEO's can employ 'stop sticks' that are on the vehicle slot for 'pursuits' or allow police to deploy 'radar sites' or 'dui checkpoints'.

Eample 2: EMS units can place the defribillators into the vehicle slots where any staffmember on the vehicle can use, but the staffmembers slots can be filled with usage of PPE (Gloves, Masks, Face Shields..etc..etc..)

That's just the start of what this game can actually become... As I continue to play, I'm quite sure I can come up with other idea suggestions including being able to change the incoming 911 ringer tone and hud layout designs. :)

But all in all, I must say... EPIC GAME!!!!!
