Would a Grand Theft Auto where you play as a Cop work?

Didn't one of the PS2 GTA's start with this as an idea but they dropped it for some reason?

Why yes I want to protect and serve, how could you tell?

I do motherfucker.
They should have playing as a cop as the invasion mechanic in a GTA game.

Set it in the 90s and you're in CRASH (the corrupt anti-gang task force that Tenpenny was in)

it wasn't developed by rockstar

isn't battlefield hardline basically this?

non criminals

>what is The Getaway and Black Monday

>GTA Sao Christo
>Be a corrupt brazilian police agent
>help the police by infiltrating the gangs
>secretly start entering the drug trade world because of the money as you're removing the competition from within.
>halfway through the game the corrupt brazilan police gets exposed by press, tries to frame you to clean their image
>becomes a normal GTA game

That's the only way it would work t.bh

I unironically don't see anything wrong here

So basically Sleeping Dogs but in brazil and with shitty rockstar gameplay

I forgot that game even existed lmao.

L.A. Noire is similar, but I wouldn't call it a GTA experience

For me, I would have it run during/after to the events of GTA San Andreas. They could redesign the map of Los Santos from GTA V and make elements of it resemble the old Los Santos from the ps2 era

You'd play as a rookie cop during the events of the Ballas and Grove Street Families gang war. During missions, you'd be considered "On Duty" where you have to be careful with how you do things. When not on a mission, you're "Off Duty" and can do whatever you want.

Depending on your actions during missions, you stick with the law and help bring in gang members, etc until you become an FIB agent. But if you side with the gangs, you'd end up joining them and becoming a high ranking member. Each ending would result in the end of Grove Street Families

The way I see it working and it being good is if you can be a corrupt cop.
And have the choice of either betraying the police, becoming a drug lord, doing some sort of takeover of the city government with you in charge or trying your best to clean your image and be a normal cop.

Ask me if I fucking care.

>Press X to sprinkle crack on him

The style of game would work, calling it a GTA game would just hurt it because unless it was set in NY during the corruption scandals or similar people would be calling it "too clean".

>Everyone wants to play a crooked cop
>You just want to be a good cop

Yes, all those criminals are getting beaten because they're a threat to the rest of us law-abiding citizens.
So the cops are indeed protecting and serving us.

i think it could work like a red dead redemption game with a morale or karma sistem and could indeed function like a standalone or a dlc for a up coming gta

Only if you do it undercover like in Sleeping Dogs. and even there it got really stupid.
A proper cop-game doesn't really work in a sandbox style unless you go for something super wacky or super corrupt.

i don't fucking care. i just don't fucking care what happens to criminals and ethnonarcissistic niggers who want to be able to do whatever they want without consequence or criticism
