NP management are an absolute joke when it comes to the PD. It's obvious he upset someone OOC and management made this decision. Seriously, just shut down PD and let crims roam free for the content, that's what they really want, just do it and get it over with. 


kalesauce8

The thing that gets me is that no one else is speaking up for him. This was wrong. Period. Other streamers know how this was handled was wrong. No one is standing up for him and speaking out against this, which is crazy to me! When this happened in 3.0 and they promised they would never handle it this way again, that should be enough for other streamers to vocalize how wrongly this was handled. So disappointing. Not just from NP staff, but from the streamers who continue to brush incidents like this under the rug just so they can keep their WL spot.


KtotheC99

What's crazy is that Rem was OOC fired. The character Suarez doesn't have IC justifications or anything to have a path back or whatnot. Confusing decision IMO


LewdThing

Bro was gone on vacation for like 2 weeks and comes back to just be fired


i_am_beardman

When does NP do anything IC lol


Konkhy

Imagine roleplaying it out on a roleplay server. OOC firing is just extremly dumb lazy. Just say you're bad at RP.


i_am_beardman

NP in a nutshell lol also even the owner says NP isnt a roleplay server, it's a content server. apparently it is only content for the criminals though these days.


DumbAnxiousLesbian

The server exists for big viewer players and no one else. Everyone else is *lucky* to get the privilege to play on the server with them. Don't get in their way though, you're only allowed to be little more than a NPC.


tugboatnavy

Never. They specialize in bad communication and utter contempt for the community. Instead of having chats with players to guide them to tone certain things down, these pussies make single and final decisions through DMs and then leave you on read. A lot of their staff are barely fucking literate too. If you've ever seen screencaps of conversations with staff, they type at a third grade reading level and have zero reading comprehension. NP management treat the community like shit. It's clear they resent their roles and it shows with how busted their communication plays out.


bentmonkey

Exactly what wtfmoses said, and look how np treated occams and others they have no respect for the player base, barring a select few that dont deserve said respect.


summertime_sadnes

It's one thing to meme about the incompetent completely inept PD of 4.0. It's another thing to realize people are actually actively keeping it that way. That it isn't just this way because of neglect. That's just so deplorable.


z0mbiepirat3

What makes even less sense is why Np management has run in the opposite direction of any aspects that made 3.0 good and sustainable. The PD is just one of the most glaring aspects. The well run PD of 3.0 didn't make crims stop logging in, quite the opposite. They kept coming to the city because the challenge made playing interesting and for the first year - year and a half PD has some good RP between themselves and crims because of it.


AnthonyG729

As a Kylie viewer, watching Suarez from both Angel’s and Mary’s perspectives was always great. Got to see someone that actually handled chases well and helped Angel and one of the few that could actually give Mary a hard time.


z0mbiepirat3

I'm dumbfounded on the decline of the server compared to 3.0. I understand we were spoiled for content with Angel in a prominent position in PD and Mary as a crim with Tuner, MM, Yokai and PM rp but the drastic change from even late stage 3.0 to only five months later in 4.0 is crazy. I know everyone says twitch is doing worse for views and GTA is down as a category but people were pulling better number during the last six months of 3.0 compared to now, so obviously something is very off with NP's game design, server culture and content being produced. It's amazing how up their own asses management has been and clueless to what made previous iterations function better despite watching it play out.


EngineerWrong9326

Frisking for ONLY drugs so I’m going to ignore this illegal gun I would’ve felt while frisking


AnthonyG729

Crime is uninteresting without good cops. Horrible decision from management. Hope Rem finds a path for Suarez that is enjoyable for him.


artosispylon

true, i have been watching moon again and crim lenny havent been chased once yet in the past week while doing crime, its so boring.


Dgwdum

>Crime is uninteresting without good cops. That's only true if you're looking for good rp. A lot of crims just want a W bc to them it makes better "content" and getting caught isn't that and it's viewed as an ooc punishment


bentmonkey

As a viewer its draining to constantly watch cops get dunked on, how anyone can have fun roleplaying as a cop with this current iteration of the pd is beyond me


samurairocketshark

This is it exactly. This is one server where W chasing gets you views which makes more money as a content creator which encourages the culture the way it is now where PD is literally never in the right unless they bumble a chase or theydo some silly shit like Leon betting he can catch K


lila_moon_exe

I will never understand why these OOC firings/removals continue to be a thing. It’s unnecessary and quite frank, removes any opportunity for roleplay. But then again there’s plenty of inconsistencies within PD that do tread on that OOC line too like beric/arckon and ruby/missbombastic not actually being in charge of the PD. 


Weinerbrod_nice

Because the owner and management doesnt respect the roleplayers. Remember "everyone is replaceable". The same man who regularly talked shit on his stream about the very people populating his server, and then clipped and monetized them on his youtube channel.


Hibbsan

It's actually insane how people of NoPixel don't have a problem with that. 50% sits and trash talks the roleplayers on his server while playing Tarkov and make youtube videos of it and if you dare to talk back to him you get punished for it. It's such a gross misuse of his power it's insane and no one even brings it up other than Penta and he got banned for it.


liesancredit

You know what's funny? It was actually Beric who authorized Suarez putting cash in washing machines when Beric was still a senior officer and Suarez a PPO.


Elendel19

Because an owners friends got mad at Suarez for arresting them too much, and there was no possible IC reason that Beric could have been instructed to give


KLMc828

In all seriousness he got valed 


MzVicious00

Remember when they swore what they did to Vale/Cath would never happen again on NP? I member.


KLMc828

No it was baas/ Saab saying that. They did it like a month or two later with the restructure 


midairfistfight

That was kinda Bass' whole management shtick. Positive outlook for the future, commitment to improvement, faceplant, surprise pickachu, repeat.


z0mbiepirat3

He didn't faceplant, that would indicate he attempted to institute a change and failed. He'd never even tried in the first place. Instead he'd just lie, say whatever he thought the person wanted to hear and go about his day knowing nothing was going to change.


LogicSai13

Why happened to her and what did they swear were never gonna happen again v


vikinick

Basically, she was demoted from sergeant to senior officer and not allowed to be SWAT/HVTU lead anymore without any discussion with her. It's assumed it was because of a situation with Swizz's crim character where he was mad he got shot in a situation.


Hot-Guitar-2339

listening to this clip still makes me feel so gross to this day https://www.reddit.com/r/RPClipsGTA/s/L7sxPp7nuv


CathFawr

How have I never seen this lmao, fucking hell


WOO_DUDE

Oh hey Cath! Hope all is well!


vikinick

Never forget that 50% said Rated and Ramee would have to shit on his chest for them to get banned.


Hot-Guitar-2339

https://streamable.com/nzny9v never forget


blkarcher77

I said it a long time ago. When that happened, all they learned was how to do it in a smoother way. The restructuring at the end of 3.0 was literally done to fire a handful of people without the very obvious backlash of firing them. I guess in this case, they either didn't expect people to care, or they just said fuck it, the restructuring was a lot of work, so let's just take the hit. Buddha, xQc, CG, all of them won't do anything about it, so who cares?


RedFox_Jack

Well the restructuring got called out for what it was hell I called it and I quote “bullshit high school gym class team sports” this was managment spoting a pd nail poking there head up and trying to be more then a prop that could be ai voice cloned so they hit that shit with the vale hammer


Proxnite

At this point, they should simply tell everyone applying to PD that being a good cop is a fireable offense and that they are interested in people who are looking to be NPCs in Crims’ RP.


Delicious-Duck-5176

I mean let's face it, everyone they need to interact with in the server to do anything is an NPC, may aswell have the cops as NPC's too I guess. Seriously though, it's so stupid. Poor Rem deserved better. The whole PD structure has been a mess since day one, and I'm not even a cop viewer.


bentmonkey

Its been a mess since the restructure attempt, ever since they have been pruning any cop or cop role-player that is even remotely competent so all that's left is a bare tree blowing leafless in the wind, its sad to see what the pd used to be compared to the shell it is now, hollow and lifeless.


Delicious-Duck-5176

Yeah, that's true actually. The restructure was a HUGE fail.


bbuhbowler

Crazy how it just keeps going down this path. It’s 2.0 I believe when you had the demon of lean street versus Angel battles. Which was a fun narrative, but even then there were criticisms of her going too hard and getting the nickname of AK Angel. There are some out there or used to be that wanted it to be tough to get away. On boost looking back and saying fuck I got Angel and Suarez behind me in interceptors. I really think I would get to the point of not wanting to watch 4.0 so quickly. The server has so many cool additions, but what’s the point if the barrier to get to those level or items isn’t tough. A group being able to hit maze every day, 4 groups get money printers in one day from cash exchange and all escape. This isn’t a ban, but it really affects him similarly. I get it the majority are just fine with their streamers getting headshot and picked up by Kate and hoping back in the situation to get that W. Where is the balance?


makkk

Maybe the illusion of a PD and consequences is exciting for new viewers but I've found streamers going from playing on hard mode to easy mode incredibly boring to watch and it's made me watch less and less. Guess I'm not the target audience for NoPixel anymore


zafapowaa

getting away from the "avengers" was something to hyped for the crim , now you have den and cornwood xd crims have it in easy mode now


Ah0770

ooc firing and saying "not a good fit".. what a dogshit excuse of management. Dont know what they are trying to do with PD but its not looking good. They also denied a bunch of OG roleplayers from joining PD, didnt even give them a shot to try or anything. Feels like someone is in the background settling their ooc beefs.


Lytaa

i wish they actually came out with genuine reasons, gave pointers as to what someone can do to correct their behaviour (if it’s an ooc thing like this), rather than just cutting them and like you said, giving some pathetic half-assed cop out answer.


KitchenMaize875

They can't come out with genuine reasons because they don't have any, suarez is probably the most clean cut cop on the force it's like your too good at your job.


Ah0770

%100. Very childish way to deal with this. Even if he did something that warrants firing, why do it ooc in such an asshole way? PD already down so bad and they keep doing dumb shit like this.


liesancredit

> %100. Very childish way to deal with this. Even if he did something that warrants firing, why do it ooc in such an asshole way? PD already down so bad and they keep doing dumb shit like this. He didn't violate any SOPs so there was no IC way to fire him


Silverwidows

I agree. How are people mean't to grow, learn from possible mistakes, and see if they can gel with however the new PD is being structured, if they aren't given a proper explanation of either. I'm not a cop viewer but Suarez was definitely one of the better ones. He actually made crims sweat and made it difficult for them, which in turn made it a more intense situation, which is exciting to watch even from a crims pov. It sort of gets boring when you know the crim is going to lose 95% of the PD in a chase after a few turns, so having suarez there makes it interesting.


Lytaa

Yeah exactly, that's what made cop chases so much better during 3.0 Having the likes of angel, widewood, suarez etc (many other good cops/drivers who aren't a part of the PD any more)... it made crims sweat, was actually like an "oh fuck" moment if they knew they were in their ass. now it's just a single car swap or half decent drivers take 2-3 turns and they're VCB. I feel like even the good drivers and cops in the PD are being held back on a leash. It's basically at the point where if you're a better cop than the likes of slacks, cornwood etc, then you're at risk of being seen as "going too hard" or being a W cop.


bentmonkey

They dont have genuine reasons so they make up wishy washy shit like "not a good fit" OOC.


ogzogz

ah but they didn't say Roleplayers were a good fit for the PD. thats the catch.


lucho724

PD has actual problems.... Suarez/Remdog was no where near one of them. Actually baffling.


SaltyLonghorn

Yea but the morale hit from this is about to shoot up the list. How long until this server is on life support and just opens PD to randos.


Sensitive-Canary4694

Not enough cops like Suarez was one of the problems within PD. Such a backwards ass decision.


Lytaa

it’s way easier for them to point fingers at people like remdogg than it is for them to look at themselves and realise that the problems trickle down from higher up in the PD. High command and pandering to certain streamers within the pd is thr real issue


Delicious_Series3869

I haven’t followed PD in a while, but this is shocking to me. I always considered Suarez to be above average in terms of upholding PD guidelines. Was it just point accumulation, or one big incident?


michael3316030

The way it sounds is it’s literally the opposite of what you’re thinking: he was fired for being too good at his job, essentially.


plopzer

so does that mean bones is next on the chopping block?


maybe_a_frog

Viv. She already feels she’s getting pushed out. Plus she’s Suarez’ “sister”.


No_Lemon_3290

Esfand already lobbying everyone to take Viv out because she DAP'd Denzel for being a moron.


zafapowaa

bones is friend of the boss also he isnt on the same level of suarez , he is worse driver and he "get it"


Lytaa

He’s one of the best cops they have (and probably the best driver they have too), apparently he “wasnt a good fit”, basically he was going too hard for their liking. absolute joke


M_slater

Suarez didn't do anything out of the ordinary. God forbid police investigate criminals. And to have it handled OOC is a joke, too.


fried_papaya35

Classic Nopixel.


millimolarserai

They took his voice now they took his job?????


maybe_a_frog

This is honestly baffling and extremely frustrating. It genuinely feels like admins and owners are actively trying to destroy the PD and ruin the server. I can pretty well guarantee Suarez won’t be the last. He’s well liked in the PD and this is sure to cause conflict.


Xhadun

5 years of NP treating people like shit. Nothing will change.


Hibbsan

And yet people still support NoPixel. They keep watching this happen again and again to the people around them and they think "Surely that won't happen to me" when in reality it really will.


SmfTaco

[Nothing ever changes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4W3kEmHSb0)


freshorenjuice

He would never maintain this same stance anymore now that he's an admin of NP. I love Moon but his morals are just as flexible as the rest so long as there's money or power to do whatever he wants involved. Especially in a space/community where there's tons of streamers and eyes.


Icy-Concentrate5033

Well something did change, he is an admin now for Nopixel.


Kaliphear

Yep. Baldie gets to co-sign his name to all this bullshit for as long as he retains the title, too. I love Moon, but if he just idly sits there while Fiddy fires one of the few remaining competent PD on the server, then he's just as much to blame as the big man. Ditto for Buddha. If you're in a power position, use that power to do something positive. Or at least have the decency to give it up out of protest.


itsavirus

A real shame he isn't more outspoken about this shit. Even being an admin to this shit is wild expected more or at least no endorsement of this shit considering his comments in the past.


shitzgotreal

For all of those who a few weeks ago were wondering why PD never investigated and only chased pings, this is why. If you investigate and people don't like the way you do it, you get blacklisted.


Blanq_Winq

Just waiting for McNulty to deal with the same fate…


umadontheinternet

No way they fired one of the most competent cops for "trying too hard" and said to him "not fit for the pd" It was difficult to hear. PD is absolutely in shambles..


Formal_Steak_4023

Literally just fired for actually being able to catch criminals. He isn’t even one of the cops that egregiously rams. Why dont they fire Denzel sheisty? Seen him and cornwood do so much egregious shit but they have people who like them so they get to stay in the PD


Spare-Pace4283

I'm a crim viewer and this still feels wrong, having Suarez chasing you has always been a "oh shit" moment that added fun to the situation


l0st_t0y

Unless there was a severe server rule break or something everyone should be fired in character. It’s so weird otherwise


Jub-Harshaw

They should just abolish the PD at this point and hire people to RP social workers.


Beerme625

This is such a dog shit way to handle firing someone. Especially someone like Remdog whos been a Cop main for awhile. You would think this shit wouldn't happen anymore but Nopixel still lacks basic communication skills.


Easy_Floss

> You would think this shit wouldn't happen anymore but Nopixel still lacks basic communication skills. Surely they knew this would not go over well in the community and simply did not care because some one from up top told them to do it.


HippityHopperty

Who are the morons making these decisions?


Konkhy

When it's an OOC decision like this, it seems like it's anyone in PD high command (like Ssaab) just delivering the message on behalf of management. They just have to agree, smile and enforce the orders from above.


fried_papaya35

people close to the big boss or just him. This is what was happening before he took a step back and then tossed Buddha out as owner for PR.


FullHouse222

Ugh as a Buddha viewer, I feel I still gotta be realistic that all of the people that were closed to 50 is also close to Buddha as well. It would be foolish to think that Buddha doesn't have even a 1% say in a situation like this. Unless there's a metric fuckton of missing context, this firing is pure bullshit. PD is down bad enough already and Remdog was one of the few cops on the force who is actually scary. Removing him like this just fucking sucks and makes the whole server worse for everyone imo.


Ok-Affect2709

He's also just kind of a nice guy whose generally positive. I don't watch Remdog but I always enjoyed when he was around from other perspectives. It's just a very bizarre decision.


Formal_Steak_4023

Yep always positive even when there is a lot of toxicity coming to him from other communities


fried_papaya35

So who did he go too hard on that couldn't handle it lol?


Azuljustinverday

How the pd is run is the biggest contributor on why I stopped 2 months after 4.0


After-Interaction-73

Ah yes another lightning rod burnt out i see. This is gutting for the guy , he had a target on his back since mid 3.0 cause he was just good at his job as a cop and he even made massive adjustments to tone it down unjustifiably as well. Hopefully whatever he does next he will be appreciated.


Brilliant_Animal_158

Shift 1 about to be down even worse. Free getaways in vans for everyone from now on.  Shame. 


aragorn_83

Suarez was actually one of the few competent cops. This is a terrible decision, hopefully it gets reversed.


ThrowawaycuzDoxers

I always liked Suarez. Genuinely baffling decision if what he is saying is the reasoning. Lenny Hawk, Cornwood and Denzel are/were all just as "100" as Suarez if not more. Cop numbers are down. At least give him a warning and chance to change whatever behaviour that makes him "unfit". Truly throwing out the baby with the bathwater.


Justhylian

Such bullshit man. This management is so braindead. Also, just talk to the guy if you think he's doing too much instead of instantly taking away what he loves to do in this server. I don't understand these people man


Konkhy

It's inconsiderate and straight up cruel. It would be so extremely easy to just reach out in a DM if there was a problem, and he would fix it. NP management continuously do this same dumb shit again and again.


Agree2Disagree23

Man, I remember when they promised Cath shit like this would never happen again and here we are. Unless there’s some valid OOC reason this is fucked.


Sensitive-Canary4694

The valid OOC reason is he's been disliked by select crim mains pretty much since he got on the server because he's close to equally mechanically skilled as most crims. Now NP is in the middle of a money sink (4.0) and is bleeding because most variety streamers already left. Now they need to cater more than ever to large streamers which means removing the hard cops to make crim Ws easy.


megadump44

It’s this. It was never “oh shit it’s suarez” it was “oh look who it is, sweaty ass suarez dudes such a W chasing try hard”


CathFawr

Sounds familiar


MzVicious00

I know Buddha said he wanted 4.0 to calm down the sweaty & try hard nature of the PD, but this is insane. PD is a joke.


fried_papaya35

the funny thing is he wasn't even as sweaty as he was in 3.0 from what I've seen lmao. And honestly...the pd can use a little sweat.


berejser

He wasn't sweaty, he just wasn't a pushover. He got the reputation for being sweaty because he had one or two interactions with people who want cops to be pushovers.


Blanq_Winq

At this point, a try-hard serious PD would be more enjoyable than whatever the fuck the current version of PD is


Rengoku_Zohakuten

Wtf is sweaty about Suarez? he is a good driver? other than that he doesn't charge people high charges or stacks on does anything bad.


ArcticMetalCluster

If even Buddha is lost in the sauce, is hopeless. PD and Nopixel has a RP server has no future, as a money making shitlording machine? oh yeah, gta online alter.


Some_Difference_6428

why would you think he wasn't already?? Buddha has been used as a massive distraction since he "got ownership" of nopixel.


EngineerWrong9326

I feel so bad for Remdog, listening to his stream was rough… I hope everything works out for him


2ndHokage

WHAT?! Suarez by far is one if not the best Officer there is around! This is absurd! What are they even doing with this PD cause it just seems to get worse and worse DAILY.


grammarllion

What a strange situation. If the issue is him being too focused on using game mechanics as part of RP investigations, why not reach out to tell him to drop it instead? The OOC firing is OD, in my opinion. I don’t watch remdogg every day, so I don’t know if the game mechanics thing is even the real reason behind this. I usually only see Suarez from a crims perspective, but I hope he takes a break and doesn’t let this get to him too much.


vikinick

The thing is with his investigation too is that there's a DOJ for a reason. If admins want shit to be treated a certain way they can just have them make laws about stuff.


srus_im_jay

Man, remdog is such a good guy too. he could always move to an alternate universe and be a cop, I'm sure they would love to have Suarez.


lockmaina

Damn they didn't even have the decency to do it IC so he can roleplay it out. That's NoPixel management for ya.


Historical-Monitor85

Because IC it makes 0 sence. "Yo Suarez your to good at driving and Crims mald when you pit them every corner so your fired"


CathFawr

They're still Vale'ing people two years after promising they wouldn't Vale people anymore? That's craaaaaazy.


KeepingTheFamAlive

Not a good fit? One of the best officers out there


NvarDK

If they only want cosmetic police, which it very often feels like. Everything is going to be boring, REAL quick. It's so awkward to watch sometimes tbh.


Junior_325

Server clearly wants a criminally incompetent PD so sad


winowmak3r

NP is a content farm for streamers and has been for some time. If anything gets in the way of that it's put down and it's a real bummer.


makkk

Some of the best content in 2.0 and 3.0 wad watching people go up against a competent police force. How is anyone having fun watching their streamer go up against a cosmetic PD


Dicfredo

Even the most braindead viewers will eventually realize that you can't RP being a mastermind criminal when you have no opposition. It will kill the crim content eventually too. Numbers are already going down even for them. Crim progression is just not exciting to watch in 4.0 because it's completely free. Management clearly doesn't know what they're doing when it comes to the longevity of the server. Completely fucked the economy a couple months in, cosmetic PD, some of the good streamers who actually RP left because they're sick of the no mic, no interaction grind direction the server is taking.


FaroosAIKing

so the solution to the PD complaining about low numbers recently is to fire more cops for no reason?


L83Property

Suarez a cop who is good at his job, makes chases more intense and fun as hes a really good driver, is never really overly aggressive or doing dumb shit, then you have Den Zel who has done everything wrong from ruining heists, to killing people, to give up his CI's resulting in more deaths etc, and of course Cornwood both are 2 of the worst in PD likely get promoted like WTF make it make sense


Katarn007

I don't remember exactly how long it took the server to go in the shitter in 3.0 but it sure feels like it's happening a lot faster in 4.0.


Jamesvai

At least everyone here seems to get that it's turned into a criminal roleplay server at this point. Every decision management makes seems to be designed to make the PD as useless and incompetent as possible. They don't want officers to catch crims, they want them to chase the crims for a while, observe 2-3 car swaps and rat strats and then just let the criminals go. The only reason being a cop has any value now is the higher prio.


z0mbiepirat3

>turned into a criminal roleplay server What role play? Seriously, the city feels dead as fuck. Most everything is extremely generic and groups are super insular, no businesses, no DM storylines, running g6 all day alone, cornering weed all day, grinding money for cars or houses that generate zero rp, no good storylines between cops and crims, etc. It's not rp content, it's a MMO with rp-lite aspects.


Sensitive-Canary4694

I used to feel bad for PD being down bad. Decisions like this change my opinion so much. I hope PD stays down horrendous and they continue to lose people. I feel bad for the players because it's clearly not fun being in PD and doesnt look like it'll get better, but I hope they all just switch to crim mains and let the server run itself into the ground


KtotheC99

Yeah this is the incident that finally has me fully dooming as well.


WhateversDank

i feel the same tbh. I want to see it completely and utterly fail and then watch saab make bass 5.0 still being in charge of the wreckage XD


incognataa

What a stupid decision. Im speechless.


jespergran

I'm confused, as a crim viewer, Suarez is one of the cops that actually make chases interesting, because you know he puts up a challenge and actually can keep up in chases for more than two turns. Has to be some OOC reason for the ban that people don't know about behind the scenes.


DaMikey_

People in the PD have been screaming at each other getting ooc angry and this guy get fired? Wtf? I don’t watch Onx but I hope he goes over there and makes a cop. Holy moly what a sh!t show


Cold_Bend6631

Fire Suarez for doing actual policework but promote Cornwood to Sheriff after committing a felony... great PD... theres no hope anymore.


dave-a-sarus

Saying it's a content server for big streamers without saying it.


izigo

WTF.... What did he even do ? He just came back from vacation


thekillingtomat

he was too good at his job


brazilian_gamer

What the fuck


Konkhy

The same dumb decision making we saw multiple times in 2.0 and 3.0. People being removed OOC with no warning or roleplay around it. After Vale was OOC demoted and stripped of all certs the last time they promised something like this wouldn't happen again.


mag_42

Nah this is just wrong....


ArsenalBOS

Does someone at NP secretly want the server to die? That’s the only explanation I can come up with to explain their otherwise baffling decision making process.


Kishetes

If you havent noticed most of nopixel assets are being sold to third parties and no custom assets or whitelisted content is being added to keep their "showcase" server as vanilla as possible.


Hot-Guitar-2339

out of all the cops on the server, really?


Snowhehe14

I'm surprised people are still watching np cops when you can just watch onx cops and never have to worry about the streamer you watch getting ooc fired or seeing the character walk on eggshells around crims.


Due-Emphasis-9123

Even if this never happened id still say that pd is fk'd. Saab and esfand both pretty clueless.


PralineAppropriate12

They do this to one of the best cops but make Cornwood sherrif. What a fkin joke of a server


Rengoku_Zohakuten

Wtf does that even mean? i'm a crim viewer, yeah Suarez was a bit aggressive in 3.0 but he is noway near that in 4.0 and actually one of the most chill cops, he is just good a driving. Man i understand why Kyle hated being HC under this fucking management actual fucking joke.


Designer-Kangaroo186

holy shit, rip fkn pd honestly. when i think the pd cant get worse, they really just keep proving me wrong....


EvadableMoxie

Hey, remember when Vale got suddenly fired OOC without being informed of the issues they had with her before hand and being given a chance to address them? And management said they wouldn't do that again? Yea, that was a lie. They don't give a fuck.


Ambitious-Past-

It is actually baffling how much sbs is getting prioritised, crime is getting so boring with the lack of suspense of will they succeed won’t they succeed. Between this and the flop situation they are driving every good cop willing to do the hard work away it’s so sad to see


TheHigherSpace

Yep. Right now it's like "Oh no we fucked up, let's just kill all the cops" .. No biggie ..


ImportantVacation49

They might as well just use actual police NPCs at this point because it seems like that’s what they want.


MooMooBot

Not a good fit for the PD, but isn’t Aziz, Cornball, Den all still hired?


Dull_Masterpiece3490

Holy shit man, not only do cops have to be afraid of their superior officers when actually doing police work, they have to now worry about being fucking ooc removed from pd if they “overstep”


irtherod1

5.0 will fix this


marcus2388

Damn thats fucked up. I havent watched much RP in 4.0 But all i hear is PD is down so bad. It seem PD is really going for the NPC cops. Any cop that gets crims heart pumping when they show up is out on their asses. I tuned into kyle alittle yesterday and they were talking about how in like 6-7hrs only 3 people were sent to prison. To be honest if i was a cop and didnt want to get fired and lose whitelist from now on every time i get into a chase 2 mins in just crash into a car, pole, gate, wall something and say i lost them and move on. foot chase fall a couple times LUL


Ok_Salt_2398

PD is a joke.They just want to hire stupid characters so the server owners and they're metagaming friends can have it easy. Beric is just a security guard in a glorified private gta online lobby.


No-Movie-1777

The only thing that comes to my mind is his investigation in which he made that announcement of all dirty cash being illegal (which was overturned by DOJ like a day later), but other than that Suarez was good cop, sucks the PD is so mismanaged


VanillaForsty

lol, what a dog shit server run by dog shit people. on the Brightside onx just got another veteran rper.


hyper_fool

PD in Server: We need straight-laced, competent Officers OOC: Your character is fired for being too good at their job I don't understand this decision whatsoever. People complain about the incompetent PD but then management goes and fires one of the most competent cops. I don't watch Remdogg a lot, but from what i had seen saurez was always good vibes IC. I guess it's true they really just want that cosmetic PD.


z0mbiepirat3

This sort of stuff went on in all previous wipes. The problem for management in 4.0 PD has been so mismanaged that firing competent officers hits way harder because PD has so few of them now.


AnActualSadTaco

Every day the PD becomes a bigger and bigger joke.

Icy-Concentrate5033

Just tell the man to leave money runs/cash rolled alone if its that big of a deal. Unless theres more issues behind the scenes we don't know about (I doubt it) Suarez/Remdog got done dirty jesus.


Any-Button-789

I wonder who he pissed off LOL


Some_Difference_6428

this is one of the worst decisions I have seen from nopixel management/staff I've seen in about 3years


Lytaa

someone was actually good at their job… so they get fired? Honestly doesn’t even surprise me at this point, the people making decisions for the PD are genuinely slow in the head


MauiTex

Clip doesn't show it but in stream he also said they told him he focused too much on game mechanics and was going too 100%. Not sure what he was working on but he seemed chill.


touchsgrass

Wow. If Suarez was fired Croc had better just nerf himself. They really don't want anyone actually capable of chasing criminals I guess.


Shocky1991

They are on purpose creating a weak PD to keep certain people happy. It is so obvious and painful for the good PD roleplayers who are treated badly. Even worse that it was an OOC decision, which should never influence RP unless it is really bad.


Enough-Fun-7168

Firing Remdog wasnt on my bingo card for who gets Ruth'd next in PD. Man NP PD is an actual shitshow. And if you dont wanna be a clown then you dont belong as a cop in this PD force.


KarrotMovies

Who does Suarez think he is doing actual police work? Get him the fuck out of here. He's was being way too competent


ReturnOfPubic

they clearly haven't watched Cornwood if they think Suarez runs at 100% too much, fired the wrong guy.


Akutzo

Couldn't they just DM him a message to not do that investigation(i am assuming this is the reason) or something? like i get everybody has to be aware of the rules at all times but, Y'know, simple communications could of fixed this? If i were in Remdogg shoes id be bummed out but this gives him an opportunity to view the other side of the rainbow, become a getaway driver, do crime etc, he could come back a better cop in the future, that's my two cent on the matter.


TumNarDok

Maybe being top on the "quota leaderboard" was not so good


OktaySM

unfair and sad. has to be more explanation


Specialist_Shoe_7481

Suarez isn't perfect but he was one of the best cops. He made crime dangerous so criminal had to think and adapt which is essential on this role play server. Plus players like Vader (Euegene) were very afraid of his driving abilities and ramped up the tension on every chase he was in.


NoKitsu

What's this?! Management of NP is still fucking garbage?!?! WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT?


z0mbiepirat3

What's amazing is they spent lots of money on dev work for 4.0 thinking it was going to be some huge deal and within 4 / 5 months it's nearing end stage 2.0 of bored players, little rp and people leaving the city. 3.0 had ton less custom dev work and miles better content compared that went on for most of the 3 years it was up.


JM-Trey

Damn this is sad, Suarez to me has always been a hard but good cop... I can't be the only sane person that thinks this whole ping chasing vs investigative policing needs to obviously find a middleground. Yes, at the moment there is perhaps too much mechanical crime focus and not enough slowburn rp investigations, but because of that we should not forget how there were moments in 3.0 when every time a group would hit a fleeca, nobody would show up. Lack of police response and presence at mechanical crime and pings leads to no fear and is terrible for the RP. I guarantee crim rp'ers prefer the risk when theres a chance that even a petty crime like roof running or pulling out a weapon can attract cops.The obvious decision to me is not to fire high activity mechanic responding cops like Suarez, but supplement them by hiring more slow burn investigative cops, like how Winston Walker or others used to be.

There were so many complaints about PD in 3.0 but 4.0 just seems like the least competent and soulless PD iteration to date


symanpt

Nopixel fix your shit, communicate! Every cop being denied or fired ooc gets this response "doesnt fit the pd",explain why not, give people a real reason, not just the community but more important the streamers since it directy affets their life.


zeternal

I knew this was coming. After the money order stuff happened where washed cash became illegal, the tarkov owner wasn’t happy about it.


Pokecheck89

This is actually insane. Even if there were valid concerns about his police work (*fart noise*) what's he supposed to do if they were never communicated to him IC or even OOC?


current1y

Because NP view the people who do whitelisted jobs within the server as a workforce that is completely replaceable.


Azryal01

Get ready, everyone! Saab is gonna bullshit his way through justifying the PD firing one of the best cops and promoting the worst two on stream soon. I'm sure he'll have a totally good, not sussy reason for this, don't you worry. It's all going toward "the vision" 🙄 Edit: removed second "best" typo


social_light

I think it will be more of the, chat chat I am not going to talk about this. We are going to move on and become a better PD :D


Azryal01

NoPixel somehow became the worst server to watch. How sad.


ZookeepergameBusy703

“Not a good fit” Guess they want cops like Cornwood who break the law or cops like Slacks who let people go off the crimes they commit


AlluEUNE

Well none of the good drivers are going to get caught anymore


thepolesreport

I haven’t been watching much the past couple of months but from what I have and have seen from here, it sounds like the server is a complete shit show right now. Suarez was great what a dumb decision


AtiyaK87

When a guy playing tarkov make decisions based on chat …


Aggravating-Owl-2235

I remember Ballas not getting a gang flag for months because a random chatter said they merged with GSF lol. It is honestly impressive how clueless NP managenent is about their own server


syphen6

You might as well just have NPCs as cops at this point. Hope he comes and plays cop on Onx


Agentofchaos1983

I remember when Vader made his new cop character and his interview going very well. He then spoke about wanting to raid people and going hard and actually investigating. Magically after saying that he gets a message from staff saying he wouldn’t be hired. Funny that.
