Shock Utility Request

Hello, this request form will go over a few things that would help the regiment act, respond, and control situations aboard the Renegade with an even higher margin of successs. The tools that are being requested have very little to no abuse possibilities and are really used to improve RP, and to further improve our role in shock. As shock has seen recent issues regarding the state of the regiment I want to do everything in my power to make things go smoother with less unnecessary issues. As Shock, our job is to stop situations from happening while only using our arrest batton as a last resort. With this mentality there is only so much a trooper can do before an incident arises. We have practiced and trained as a unit since our last formal discussion with staff and have changed our standards, tactics, and overall mindset for the few "arrest happy" shock in the regiment. Here are few various tools that can be used to further RP as well as make arresting less common with basic cases of rule breaking.

Suggestions
  • Hand Cuffs and Hand Ties
    • The Handcuff is a basic detaining tool used to apprehend someone. As the only way to currently stop someone from doing something is an arrest batton it would be nice if we could RP out situations more by detaining and transporting a suspect. This also allows for the handcuffing of surrendered enemies that can then be transported back to the ship for further interrogation. As I have been a shock for over 3 years across other servers I have seen this tool have a great impact on the regiment as well as the immersion of RP related events on the server.
    • The HandCuff model I recommend is from Cuffs - Handcuffs and Hand Ties and I recommend the elastic variants as they can be taken off, and have no blind/gag mechanics.
  • Riot Shield
    • The Riot Shield is and defensive tool used to stop riots, protect high-value targets, and to act as a barrier between us and the enemy.
    • The riot shield suggested is a deployable 1 man barricade that can either be held in hand to block bullets or deployed on the ground to cover the entire body.
    • I have also used this tool throughout my days in shock and have seen it save many lives when troops need help or cover as well as acting as a shield for high-value targets so they don't get taken out.
    • The model of riot shield I am suggesting is the Police Deployable Shield

Conclusion
As shock continue to prove to everyone in this community that we are a well established, professional group of people we hope that our recommendations get addressed to not only improve the job of Shock but to add more levels of RP for the entire server. The list will be expanded upon as more items or ideas become available from members of the community. With that said thank you for reading my post, and if you have any comments, suggestions, or concerns with any of the items listed above feel free to comment below and we can discuss ways to solve the various issues and needs of the regiment.

+1 but you have discord to act as a radio
Yea I was suggesting it for cross regiment communication. Not specifically a shock utility, but could be used for verbal communication between regiments.

I fully agree to this, we shock would be far more into rp scenarios if we had the tools to act them out, these tools would both assist in those scenarios and also make our jobs a lot more efficient without upsetting as many people.

Sorry to be this kind of person TingTing, but a "a lot less efficient" I believe you meant a lot more efficient. Sorry again for being this type of person.

Can we please get this addressed. Just was in an event revolving around the handcuffing of 2 sep scientists, and we /me handcuffed since we didn't have the actual handcuffs, and they decided to not listen to the RP and continued doing their thing. I really feel we have proved our selves to be competent soldiers, and these tools will really make things better on the server especially for events.

I understand doing /me for things that the game isnt capable of doing whether there are no addons for it yet or software limitations make it impossible, but when there are decent handcuff addons that will perform better than any /me system of arresting or detaining someone, add that shit ASAP

Ye like slicing is the most awkward shit in other servers. The slicing kit is great aspect for slicing now. It would be cool if there was something for bombs. But ye I want nothing to do with /me with shock or anything else.

I second this, I have had to recapture a prisoner without handcuffs after a Jedi failed to capture them and then I had to escort him with a fleet officer and one of my troopers, and I had to constantly worry about the prisoner just runs off. Luckily he was scared to die and didn’t run away from me.

I think the additions would improve Shock's effectiveness in certain scenarios, with the proper training in their use. And they would serve to set the regiment apart from the others, and as the police regiment it is supposed to be.
