Trivia

• On the Rockstar Games Social Club website, players can find the «LCPD Blotter», which lists statistics about crimes committed by GTA IV players as a whole.
• In Grand Theft Auto IV, the LCPD patrol in Alderney. However, Alderney is a separate state from Liberty City. The only difference between the Liberty City police and Alderney police is the uniform and sometimes, the accent of the officers.
• At higher wanted levels (five and six stars), the LCPD seem to begin disappearing as more and NOOSE officers begin to show up. This may indicate that the LCPD are too afraid of death to take on the player, or simply are handing over the chase to the better prepared and more capable law enforcement agencies.
• When the player has a three star wanted level, the officer talking through the tannoy of the police helicopter often shouts «This is the LPCD!», when in fact it should be LCPD. This could indicate that the helicopter pilots care less about shouting LCPD to the player than normal officers.
• At the LCPD station in East Holland, If the player enters the parking lot in the back and ascends the stairs up to the helipad, he/she can find one to three officers surrounding a body.
• On the beach in the Northwestern corner of Bohan, you can sometimes find one lone officer standing next to a body.
• GTA IV is unique for letting the player be able to shoot the gun off an enemy without killing the enemy. If the player shoots any weapons other than a pistol off from the officer, he will pull out a pistol. If the player shoots the pistol off from the officer, the officer would flee. This also applies to the FIB and NOOSE.
• In The Ballad of Gay Tony, police officers are more aggressive, doing drive-bys at 4 stars instead of 5 stars and wielding more powerful weaponry such as Assault SMGs and Automatic Shotguns. Officers also wield Advanced MGs from helicopters.
• If you choose to go out the front of the hospital in the mission The Snow Storm, one of the officers will wield a Combat Shotgun, uncharacteristic, as the standard-issue shotgun is the Pump Shotgun
• The telephone number for LCPD recruitment is 555-RECRUIT (555-732-7848). It can be dialled, but there will be no answer.
• A pistol can be seen in police officers’ holsters. These are part of the character model and so will stay in the holster even when the officer has drawn their pistol.
• According to the GTA Chinatown Wars manual, the LCPD runs a «Guns For Ca$h» amnesty program, sponsored by Ammu-Nation.
• The Star Junction/Triangle substation resembles the US military recruitment station that exists in the real Times Square. Coincidentally, in 2008 — the year GTA IV is set — the station was the site of a bombing incident.

Equipment

Vehicles

In GTA IV, LCPD officers on the streets commonly drive two variants of police cars: The Police Patrol and the Police Cruiser, which serve as their primary pursuit vehicle of choice when the player attains a 1-star or 2-star wanted level, and will continue to appear in conjunction with NOOSE and forces in a 3-star wanted level or higher. In GTA Chinatown Wars, the LCPD is only equipped with the Police Patrol (although game art of both the Police Patrol and Police Cruiser are still used when the player is Busted), and only appears up to a 4-star wanted level (alongside NOOSE Enforcers), as the FIB takes over at 5 stars.

The LCPD also extends their authority in the air in GTA IV with the use of Police Mavericks, which commonly patrol the sky even when the player does not have a wanted level. Police Maverick will occasionally join a 1 or 2 star wanted level when they happen to be within close proximity of the player, but the helicopter is certain to appear only when the player has a 3-star wanted level; the NOOSE’s Annihilator takes over from 5 stars onwards. At sea, the LCPD is equipped with Predator boats, which only appear when the player is wanted at any level. The boats carry two more officers armed with rifles at the back, opening fire at the player.

The Ballad of Gay Tony also includes two more LCPD vehicles, the Police Buffalo (named «Police Cruiser» in game) and the Police Bike, a police motorcycle. Both vehicles are not used by LCPD officers, and are only available in The Ballad of Gay Tony multiplayer. A third police vehicle, the Police Stinger, does not bear the LCPD’s signature blue-and-white livery, but does sport the LCPD logo.

Weapons and other portable equipment

Police officers carry a range of equipment. As a weapon of defense, a collapsed ASP extendible baton is in place on the officer’s utility belts but officers do not utilize the weapon at all. The baton is reinstated in the GTA Chinatown Wars rendition of the LCPD. The standard issue police firearm is a Glock 22 pistol. This is used when making arrests, pursuing suspects and self defense. If an officer is disarmed, they will resort to using their fists to defend themselves. If an officer is patrolling in a vehicle, and the suspect has a two star wanted level or more, the officer carries an Ithaca 37 pump shotgun. Officers patrolling at places of high security such as The Statue of Happiness, Civilization Committee Headquarters, and the Rotterdam Tower stations carry MP-10 SMG (only in missions) and M4A1 Carbine assault rifles, which are a good deterrent of terrorist activity and crime. When the suspect has a five star wanted level or more, officers will attempt to shoot the player with PSG-1 sniper rifles from rooftops, specifically those in Chinatown and The Exchange.

The police also carry personal radios in order to report crimes and call for assistance — they can sometimes be seen talking into them while patrolling, as can Security Guards.

Uniforms

The uniforms of the LCPD resemble that of the famous New York Police Department (NYPD).
Depending on the in-game weather, the officers may be wearing different uniforms, such as a raincoat marked «LCPD» and a white hat cover. Officers uniforms are generally navy blue with black buttons. Officers can wear either a long sleeve, short sleeve, or short sleeve with a long sleeve black under shirt. Officers also have the choice of wearing hats, ties and either leather or normal police jackets. The officer’s tie clips have «LCPD» engraved in the middle. Officers who wear sky blue shirts, as opposed to navy blue shirts, are traffic enforcement officers, as seen by the different badge and patch on the officers with sky blue shirts. Despite the fact the game classifies them as traffic enforcement officers, they do not perform the usual duties of traffic enforcement officers, such as issuing citations. Traffic enforcement officers, unlike their real-life counterparts, are armed.

Alderney Police wear different uniforms than Liberty City police, despite being from the same department. Alderney police uniforms bear resemblance to those of the New Jersey State Police (NJSP). However, their stations bear the LCPD logo, as do their vehicles.

Police in Scripted Missions

Sometimes, police (during missions) just appear in a certain mission for another purpose rather than to attack the player, this happens through out the entire storyline of GTA IV to GTA Chinatown Wars. One of the reasons for this is to add an even more since of realism to the gameplay and also the theme of the story.

Police Scripted Missions in GTA IV

(This list starts with GTA IV and ends with The Ballad of Gay Tony).

• Jamaican Heat — After you’ve killed all the gang members, two police officers will arrive and run onto the opposite side of the street you’re on.

Volpe, Mark Anthony

Подозревается своими сообщниками по криминальному синдикату Мессина в том, что работает на полицию, хотя настоящим стукачом является его брат — Фредо Вольпе. Подозревается в организации сети подпольных букмекерских контор, действующих в четырёх частях Либерти-Сити, однако он принимает ставки только на подтасованные игры. Считается, что однажды он отрезал язык одному из бойцов «семьи» Мессина за то, что тот предположил, будто его брат — информатор. Имеющихся аудиозаписей достаточно, чтобы засадить его в тюрьму на 12 пожизненных сроков.

Описание

В полицейском департаменте Либерти-Сити насчитывается около 40.000 полицейских, каждый из которых выполняет множество различных ролей, но большинство выполняет главную роль, это «пешее патрулирование» по всему Либерти-Сити. Они «правят» городом, то есть они являются единственной правоохранительной организацией во всем городе, несмотря на то, что там есть ФРБ и NOOSE, хотя последние считаются вспомогательными организациями. Департамент организован в различные службы и отделы, к ним относятся: служба патрулирования автомагистралей, служба воздушной поддержки, отдел по борьбе с организованной преступностью и отдел по борьбе с преступностью, служба патрулирования портов и служба патрулирования учебных заведений.

Служба воздушной поддержки (основана в году), имеет парк вертолётов Maverick, находящихся на постоянном патрулировании. Воздушная поддержка может быть вызвана из одного с четырех полицейских участков. Эти вертолёты часто можно увидеть в небе над Либерти-Сити, чаще всего в паре с Annihilator во время патруля над основными мостами.

Служба патрулирования учебных заведений, имеет специальных офицеров, которые находятся в Варсити-Хайтс и университете Веспуччи. Они патрулируют и пресекают какое-либо правонарушение, типичное для студентов, такое как употребление алкоголя, наркотиков, драка или нарушение общественного порядка. Однако, если игрок совершает преступление в непосредственной близости, эти офицеры потребуют подкрепления, но будут пытаться арестовать или убить его.

Полицейский департамент известен своими очень агрессивными методами в пресечении преступности. Например, в случае обнаружения преступника офицеры немедленно попытаются его арестовать или убить, если преступник находится в машине, то офицеры будут подрезать или пытаться сталкивать с дороги, и т.д. В случае если сил полицейского департамента недостаточно или преступление несет тяжкий характер, подключаются силы ФРБ и NOOSE, которые также чрезвычайно агрессивны. Иногда для подавления преступных намерений, патрульные машины будут на 2-3 секунды включать сирену, а патрульные «советовать» не делать глупостей.

В отличии от предыдущих игр серии, где офицеры «следили» только за игроком, теперь если гражданское лицо ударит игрока или другого гражданского лица, достанет оружие, совершит ДТП и рядом будет офицер, то нарушителя арестуют и отвезут в участок.

Также полицейский департамент проводит активную рекрутинговую кампанию с плакатами и рекламными щитами, с призывом «Присоединяйтесь к LCPD» по всему городу. Они также приедут на вызов, если игрок позвонит 911 и нажмет 1, чтобы вызвать полицейский патруль. По приезду один из патруля проверит местность, в то время как другой останется в транспортном средстве, если не произойдет чрезвычайная ситуация. Однако, если ничего не произошло, то офицер вернется в полицейский автомобиль и скажет водителю, что ничего не произошло и патруль уедет.

Overview

The Liberty City Police Department is around 40,000 officers strong, with many different roles, most notably on beat patrol all throughout Liberty City. They reign in a «complete operational» status over Liberty City, meaning they are the single law enforcement organization in the whole city, besides the and NOOSE. The department is then organized into different divisions. They include Highway Patrol Units (while usually freeway/bridge duties are transferred to a State Police agency), tactical response units from NOOSE tactical units, aviation units, plain clothes units and the harbour units. The Aviation Unit of the LCPD (formed in 2001) has a fleet of several helicopters (consisting of Maverick type copters) which are on constant patrol. Aviation assistance can be summoned from one of the four stations with aviation facilities. The Police Mavericks can be seen often in the skies of Liberty City, most often patrolling with NOOSE Annihilators above major bridges such as the Hickey Bridge and East Borough Bridge. The LCPD is otherwise underfunded, unable to afford specialized pursuit vehicles and as a result have to use their regular patrol cars to chase suspects. They often injure or kill the very citizens they are assigned to «protect and serve» — many police cars accidentally hit and/or kill civilians while chasing the player.

The LCPD is known for its very aggressive techniques in pursuing crime, most notably, saturating an affected area of high crime rate with dozens of officers and patrol cars. They take the famous NYPD rationale of having a large police presence ensuring prevention and quick response. In times of emergency they respond appropriately, and pour all available resources into stopping or containing an incident. The LCPD (along with NOOSE and the FIB) become extremely aggressive when the player is wanted, and continue to shoot at the player even after the protagonist has died and «grayed out». While chasing criminals, the player or occasionally whilst driving, police vehicles hit civilians with their cars.

LCPD officers are sometimes seen writing tickets (as noticed around Middle Park and in Highway Patrol duties on the various bridges where they await speeders). Officers on foot patrol are sometimes seen chasing and apprehending criminals, which after they are caught, a radio car is contacted to take the criminal away for processing. The LCPD is also on an active recruiting campaign, with «Join The LCPD» posters and billboards at select locations throughout the city, and adorning the front of the LCPD The Triangle/Star Junction Sub-Station, (which is in front of a Liberty City Services Booth). They also appear in the streets if the player dials 911 to summon a police car with two officers inside. One officer will check around for any incidents. If a criminal attacks an officer, two officers wield pistols and pursue the criminal and catch the protagonist at gunpoint. If there aren’t any criminals around, they will get back inside the vehicle and leave. Unlike civilians, who report crimes via the telephone, a lengthy process, police sightings are reported immediately. Further crime, attacking a police officer, and evading arrest will increase the player’s wanted level. At two stars, police cars are sent to the area. At three stars, NOOSE vehicles are deployed, as well as police maverick-type helicopters. At four stars, NOOSE Annihilators and FIB Buffalos, complete with four FIB Special Agents in body armor and equipped with automatic weapons, are deployed. LCPD officers are authorized to commandeer civilian vehicles to continue chasing a suspect or respond to an emergency, often stating it as «Official Police Business» to the driver as they pull them out of the car.

Оснащение

Транспортные средства

В Grand Theft Auto IV сотрудники полицейского департамента обычно ездят и патрулируют на Police Patrol или Police Cruiser. Воздушное пространство патрулируют Police Maverick и он присоединяется к преследованию, если у игрока трёхзвёздочный уровень розыска. Annihilator будет помогать, если у игрока 5 или 6 звёзд розыска. На водном пространстве патрулируют Police Predator и будут преследовать, если у игрока трёхзвёздочный уровень розыска.

В Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, сотрудники полицейского департамента ездят только на Police Patrol. На водном пространстве патрулируют Coast Guard Launch и будут преследовать, если у игрока трёхзвёздочный уровень розыска.

The Ballad of Gay Tony включает в себя еще два транспортных средства полицейского департамента, Police Buffalo (названный «Police Cruiser» в игре) и Police Bike. Ни один из автомобилей не используется офицерами полицейского департамента, и они доступны только в мультиплеере. Третий полицейский автомобиль Police Stinger, на нём нет стандартной полицейской раскраски, но на нём присутствует логотип LCPD, и он также не используется в одиночной игре.

Следует отметить, что впервые в этой серии сотрудники полицейского департамента могут использовать гражданские транспортные средства, если рядом нету полицейских машин. При необходимости офицер будет использовать любой автомобиль независимо от его производительности или скорости. Это означает, что если игрок входит в охраняемые районы, такие как ВПП международного аэропорта Фрэнсис, они могут оказаться преследуемыми офицером на Ripley или Airtug, что выглядит слегка смешно.
