In New Zealand, our officers aren't armed with guns, they're taken through basic training of firearms but not assumed competent and permitted to be holding firearms during day-to-day patrols. A typical officer has a pepper spray, baton, taser and cuffs. If firearms are required for whatever reason; a request for a specialist team is made over the radio to attend the callout.
Drones are also used in investigations.
In Australia, if you're out in the outback without a gun and call for backup, you would probably be waiting for a very long time haha. On the island that Identity will be on in the Eastern USA seaboard and the fact that there will be "dirty cities" it would be almost idiotic for police in the city not be armed with a firearm, but maybe train police could remain unarmed? Arming officers though should be the discretion of the server owner, with maybe options like New Zealands Armed Offenders Squad able to be implemented?
Drones are a good idea though.

It would be good if it were like Australia's state of New South Wales laws how police are allowed to search both premises and vehicle if you are a registered firearms owner to ensure correct storage of the firearm.
Police should always be armed whilst on duty, just like in real life. I think someone said something about this on Identity's facebook page, but I can't find the comment at the moment.

1 minute ago, DrFelixPhD said:Damn, you got it good
over here, you would need to start paying your debt back after you begin earning £20k, which I suppose is something like $35k in AU. They do offer some minor subsidies for things like furniture or student accommodation, however it really isn't much :L
We do have a really good welfare program, but I don't have access to it because my parents earn just above the student welfare threshold. The problem with it is it's either you get $400 a fortnight from the government if you live away from home and are single and studying or you get $0 for the same situation. So I have to work to earn money and others don't have to, they get rental assistance, special scholarships, you name it. But they're the rules, I guess

I guess you've got it better over there, though?
Yes, the government over here actually pay a large portion of your degree if they approve it, so it's actually not so bad getting a degree. You also don't have to pay back the course fee until you earn over $54k or thereabouts, which is really good
Not sure how your degrees go over there though, you probably have a system the same.
Jobs are still hard to get, but ultimately it depends on where you live. The mining sector has a lot of well paid jobs during the boom years, but most people don't want a job in the middle of Australia, wonder why

I'm a uni student as well, but I'm taking trades. I took history in highschool though. It was aite. Map reading is fun as shit though. I'm gonna try to befriend you in identity so when I go RP hiking I don't get lost
You'll never get lost with me map reading! I just love reading history and watching it happen on a map (borders changing etc).

It's become a necessary cost to get a good job these days

I'm totally for realistic gun ballistics/damage models. You're definitely not walking away from a .308 (7.62mm) bullet penetrating your unarmoured torso, even armoured (only grade 4 bullet resistant armour) you'd need immediate medical attention, with no guarantees. That would make gunfights interesting, and with at least 300 players, you could assume that groups of bandits could reach over 20, making you think and plan rather then go guns blazing (for both cops and bandits/robbers etc).
On the topic of glocks/police firearms etc police should have access at least to the .45, which is a larger bullet but has less penetrating power (better for wounding, not killing).
Cheers, Harrigarno

Browsers like Google Chrome and Internet Explorer (or "Edge") or any other browser are simplish to make (or so I've been told), but you'd have to find out if you could use a search engine easily on the browser, because all search engines require you to register your website to the search engine and accept their terms and conditions. It could be as simple as porting Google into the browser, which would bypass all this, but you'd need a legal rep to read deep into the search engine of choices' t&c's to find out. Good idea though!

G'day all!
As a quick aside, I'm glad to see the amazing new forums + website we have!
I'm an Aussie, if you didn't pick that up, and I love modern history and map reading (which naturally go hand in hand). I can't wait to meet a lot of you soon as we anticipate for the release of Identity! I'm a penniless uni student who is buying a mega gaming system because I know where my priorities are at
If you have any questions shoot away!

I'd like to see some changeable aspects of the police vehicles which could be set up on individual servers by their owners.
Cheers guys!
