Seamlessly pull over any vehicle that you've seen breaking the law, or even when none is broken at all. Question the driver for his behavior and decide if the driver deserves a ticket, warning or a pass, but do not be surprised if the vehicle or the driver suddenly attempt to evade you and the law.Emergency Lighting
Bringing the most in depth and realistic emergency lighting system, with customization that allows you to create unique lighting patterns by setting the on and off time for each lighting module. And it doesn't stop there, create 3 presets to switch between in real-time and set the desired text to display on your message board!Discord

Do not waste your time. Played for 20 mins just for it to crash every 5 mins1 found this helpful
Unplayable, overpriced, and poorly optimised. Even for an Early Access title, the lack of development progress over the last few months is disappointing. It currently feels like a laggy, buggy sandbox built on flipped or generic store asset packs. Don't bother buying this game.1 found this helpful
I do not recommend this game- YET. While it will be a brilliant game, they have made the mistake of releasing it before it is ready. A lot of people have been pointing the blame finger at the devs, however it is a bit more nuanced than that. They were under some pressure to release it, and now people are upset that they released it too early. I think we should cut them some slack, although, they priced it way too high knowing it was not ready. It will be a great game, I can assure you of that, but much work needs to be done.1 found this helpful
vary good game needs some work though1 found this helpful
Sorry. No. They did reduce the price and there are some mechanics here that I'd like the genre to have, so if you want to join in to move policing games in general forward, then it may be worthwhile to sponsor these guys. But at the current state of the game, it can't recommended for nominal value or reasonable expectations. There are some cool aspects of it. The in-car computer is cool and speaks to a large potential of policing roleplay. The intended workflow is also promising and shows intention towards actual policing. The car physics is decent. The chevrons are okay. The police report mechanic speaks to ambition.. There are some quirks. Like QoL stuff. Finding an address. The name of the street. Name of suspects manual entry etc But the state of the game is a buggy mess. Even if you try to stay on the exact intended path of each callout, you get glitches, triggers and deadlocks galore. Like a felony stop scene totally freezing in a standoff or some NPC standing in an apartment hallway making it impossible for you to pass. There are very few callouts, some branching but they seem irrelevant to the outcome. I like that you have options in writing somebody off or letting…
