That "We lost the suspect" (1978/2006) give me years of live

[@mr.majora6996]

It's good Know that there are people who post videos about Driver to this day lol

[@Thekillergreece]

Someone has to do it. ^^ I also made A.I behavior analysis for King Kong, an another old (as hell) game.

Quite surprising for a game like this. It's my childhood.

[@lunaeclypse69]

Haruo Akiya same.

[@Xegethra]

Still one of my favourite games with such a fun police system.

[@fredrydmusic1]

Mine too. Everytime I play Driver PL I always remember when the cops says: ''Chase in Progress!'', ''We lost the suspect!'', ''Officer Down!'' and ''Reckless driving!'.

[@LGLFanTeam12]

The 1978 cops in their interceptors won't shoot players just so you can feel the original vehicular actions from the movies back in the days. 2006 is more of a gunplay-action oriented.

[@landonbobbett2301]

Makes sense. The 1970s counterpart focuses on old school car chases and gang shootouts and the 2006 counterpart consists of action and shootouts.

[@ollilehtonen6764]

The police in this game were very good. I just wish they had SMGs for the SWAT.

[@reihanmahendra4343]

Unlike Driv3r Police will Never to Reacts Actions By Enemy NPCs They Only Focus TK's Crimes

[@coolguy2873]

Police AI in this is kinda better than in GTA because they do go after you when you drive too fast, run a light, drive recklessly, and drive in the wrong part of the road. In GTA, the cops don't care when you do those.

[@Jeansowaty]

Imo it's not fun at all if the cops chase you for actually living. Can't have fun at all because the cops are on your tail all the time.

[@nothing9271]

The part where they investigate a crime scene without going after you it's Unique I never saw that in any other game

[@user-xi1dd6wg3w]

But the police do not issue tickets but arrest directly. This is disgusting. The Mafia police will not do this. When encountering car collisions, vandalism, speeding, running red lights and other behaviors, they will issue tickets instead of directly arresting （Mafia is 2002 game)

[@user-xi1dd6wg3w]

@@nothing9271 This was already implemented in the 2002 Mafia game

Driver parallel lines in my word book its the meaning of my beautiful childhood i miss this game and will love it forever. memoriiiies and childhood is great. The think i love most about the game is the era change. When i turned 6 years old i still played this beautiful game and i accidently restarted the game. I cried and begged to my brother to help me complete the era change because it was so cool to play in 2006. And the songs on the radio. Do we really have to talk about them, just perfect songs. I even used to sing them in my daycare. This game needs more attention.

[@wolfy9549]

Best thing about game is the past and present gameplay

[@johnmonroe8557]

there actually are swat officers that spawn in in the swat trucks but theres a glitch that can occur where only default cops spawn but the swat officers are just reskinned shotgun cops with different voice lines

[@RagnaBloodedgeBeast]

I still have this game on my PC. One of my favorite driver series.

[@auberginereverie]

The game where I am forced to *follow the damn rules*

[@Timmothy_plays]

Can you imagine how polished the A.I 'and increased limited patrol cars' can be in a hypothetical remaster?

[@JackFoxtrotEDM]

This game has some revolutionary cops lol. Meanwhile in other games you can do all sorts of things and they don't care, but if you accidentally like breathe on a cop car then suddenly the entire force is after you.

[@123Juniiorr]

saints row 2 is even better, saints 3 is.... a complete downgrade

[@OldSchoolZ-wy2yx]

Best thing about DPL cops is you can get them stuck in an infinite "must investigate" loop over a car that fell in the river... they'll keep jumping into the water

[@prosecanlik4296]

Game of my childhood!❤

[@alef962011]

I miss the time i used to spend all day/night playing my ps2 with some great games like this one! It was priceless.

[@Eggyteevee]

best thing to do in a Chase is use the Wrecker (tow Truck), once the police touches your rear, they got stuck and won't do anything until you release them

[@bitkarek]

i went thru intersection on red and they started firing on my car :D i thought if i stop i will pay a fine like in Mafia, but not... stupid.

[@riko918ab6]

[@WickedParanoid]

The one thing one needs to know is FULL CAR AND TK FELONY FOR A DONUT STAND

[@anotheryoutubeaccount5259]

The reason 2006 officers fire through their windows was probably made to increase the "gritty" feeling of the era.

[@TabbyEgg312]

and you know, 2006?

[@anotheryoutubeaccount5259]

@@TabbyEgg312 Well, post 9/11 New York.

[@landonbobbett2301]

Yup. And 1970s is more focused on old school car chases while 2006 is more focused on shootouts and action

[@MrHatman26]

Would it be worth doing one of these for Driver San Francisco? The police in that are quite stirpped back...

[@anotheryoutubeaccount5259]

The police don't notice your firearm immediately.

[@jamertheramer240]

Not sure if anyone else has said this, but entering alleyways when you're far away enough and no heli will also lose them. The police will drive by and you just have to wait for them to give up chase.

[@HairyHarpy]

Games like “F.E.A.R.” “halo: combat evolved” and “GTA 4” are known for their smart AI but some more unknown games that have good AI are, “driver: parallel lines” “star wars: battlefront 2 (2005)” and “need for speed: underground”

[@campercreed6185]

NFS Underground? No, Midtown madness and Midnight club have smarter AI. In NFS UG good, but not smart AI

What does window tinting do? Does it reduce/remove the recognition time when you're wanted (and the vehicle isn't)?

[@johnmonroe8557]

tinted windows reduce the police reconnection time

Wow, i remember playing this game a very long time ago, but i had no idea there was a 2000s setting in it

[@cobaltodesertico1749]

I remember on the description of the tinted windows it says it helps you to don't let the cops see who is driving the car. I wonder if that is a Beta feature since pretty much is just a cosmetic thing the tinted windows

[@gamtax]

Actually that tinted windows work. If you have tinted windows, the cops will take longer time to recognize you.

[@RetardedGoat16]

Most of the time I can't even tell what the cops are saying on the radio, except for "We lost the suspect"

[@OMGKawaiiAngelll]

makes sense in 1978 not 2006 though

[@anotheryoutubeaccount5259]

It's easy

[@MinecraftvsBurnout]

How did you get the Swats to come, mate? Swats do not come in any way in the PC version. They only come in Ps2 version. Wherever you are, if you kill a certain number of cops, the Swats are coming. And Swats do not come with police models but with their own special character models. You can also see the cops in different outfits in the Ps2 version. I saw some flaws and shortcomings in the PC version. EDIT: The Ps2 version is arguably the best...

[@Just_a_Piano_]

There are mods that should fix that, there are also tip videos showing how to get them to spawn

[@landonbobbett2301]

Sorry if im late but a youtuber olanov made a video on how to get different cops. Check it out!
