The police route, from badge to death rule

Kefir's money article lists joining the police as a way to make money. The Police and Arrests section then has three articles: how to become a cop, why surrender to the cops, and why pay a bribe. The death article adds the concrete asymmetry: a Police Officer loses only department-issued gear on death, while personal items and equipment remain untouched.

That makes the police role the one place where two independent Kefir articles line up cleanly. The other side of the same rule is the Criminal's surrender option in Looty Bay: surrendering saves equipped gear that would otherwise be lost with the inventory.

The 1 November announcement proposed slower police respawns, a pistol start and badge purchases whose rarity depends on the district, to roll out as ready. Since no completion date was published, this guide does not describe those as active rules. Check the announcement and the help centre before relying on them.

A Chinese launch overview says police and criminals are both played by real players, on a server of up to 5,000 people. That is a secondary report; the game's own documentation does not restate the server figure in the material checked here.
