Bean-Bag Launcher Range

The beanbag launcher is silly and way too op, the range should be looked into and be reduced. I understand why it's in the game, and is completely understandable to be used in close to mid range situations but It has no reason to be able to snipe someone from a long distance.

It ruins chases and RP, drop the range!

here is an example clip:

Pretty sure it was already lowered but they can go quite far in the real world also

Firearms officer here, Use beanbags alot and with their rate of fire I completely agree. Nerf the rangte to maybe double the taser. Or lower the rate of fire to shoot reload 👏

Tbf and duke knows I want it haha if it was changed to a actual shotgun then it could be changed to only 1 round in the thing and needs a reload to shoot again
 
I really think it comes down to the person using the beanbag in the first place. There could always be some sort of restriction in place as to how many times you can shoot someone or how much time should be between shots as it would have quite the impact on the person regardless. Personally i dont think it should be nerfed and it could just get some rp restrictions on it

Mainly I think it just shouldn't be used as a "I can't catch up so let me just beanbag him," preventing foot chases. It should be limited to stopping active aggression, whether that be someone attacking someone else, or charging at someone with a weapon in hand or etc, using it as its used in the clip, to me, feels very "lazy" cant "I can't be fucked to chase this guy", especially because he was basically locked in to a dead end.

depending on who it is. A lot of the time you will have officers who have beanbag launcher but only use it if the foot pursuit person is about to jump into a car or is assaulting people. Its always dependent on the egg you get.

In regards to steves post. We all know what water is like. Thats where crims go to get a easy escape and win. While im not saying steve was. What if the officer didnt know that, Could have been the typical baldie going for water
 
Have fun with chases, don’t abuse beanbags!

I mean seriously, in what world is that at all fair? Being able to shoot a beanbag round over 100m which knocks someone’s over and makes their character “bug” out on the floor all whilst other police close in, then have the officer instantly hit you again as soon as you stand up?

I want
 
I thought about this a while ago. I am of a similar opinion to those shared here that its a very strong piece of equipment and could do with some nerfing. I chose to go down a different route and I modeled a new weapon with animations that would serve the same purpose, but reduced the fire rate of the weapon. The range could also be adjusted quite easily. - But a main consideration was to also bring a UK theme into the picture.
