GTA 5 service jobs counter

[Rekty]

there should be a counter for cops, mechanics and ems.


Easy as that.

Honestly I agree with this. Even if it makes you click something that opens up your browser to the application. Something should exist ingame to bring awareness to these possibilities before players even realize the forums exist.

Hello,

We are trying to at least be as realistic as possible, adding something like this wouldn't really benefit anyone.

I don't really understand. How would an ingame information system for applying to the PD, EMS and Mechanics be unrealistic compared to the other jobs already located in the job center? I feel like something like this would answer a lot of commonly asked questions on applying for PD, especially for those who don't pay attention to the chatbox. As soon as they go to apply for a job, you could even have a couple stations that you interact with which pop up a window with information on the job and how to go about applying for it.

That's not what he asked for, he asked for a counter, as in there are X police on at any given time. Utilizing out of character information to know how many police are on and basing your decisions on that knowledge is metagaming. There's no reason to include that information.

It would.
Whenever you need an EMS or police youd know if theres any EMS available.
Whenever youre either going to sell drugs or rob a bank its pretty useful (Selling drugs is easily checkable, but if youre doing a big heist then theres not 6 cops on then gg

Whenever your car breaks down its good to see if theres a mechanic available of if u needf to use a rep kit or run to impound


etc etc

Ooooooooooooooooh, yeah no I don't think we need a counter, in fact a counter will deter players for a few different reasons. BUT I like my idea

After a GTA LE meeting, we've decided to not go through with this. Giving this information out, players using it would be meta-gaming.

Thanks for the suggestion!
