Can anyone say abuse?
Real abuse is like knowing what you do is wrong and still doing it like using your power to abuse the console...
Police Officers can use handcuffs (inventory) while aiming at a player. The player will then be unable to move until released by a cop (All cops will have keys for any handcuff) or released by a civ with a special tool which can be produced in a factory.
That would be awesome,but as Dez nutz said, they're not magic. So you should still be able to jog/walk whilst having your hands behind your back so its quite obvious to anyone that you've had a run-in with johnny law. also not be able to do anything that requires hands - items/cars/firearms etc
Just because the people can't move whilst handcuffs doesn't mean the realism is out the window. The whole realism aspect of the game didn't depend on the handcuffs. Just pretend the Chernarussian police use ankle cuffs aswell. They don't have to be the same as your local police. They would be shot in the leg for running in some countries anyway, it would save the retarded RPers who complain everytime they get shot. So I am fine with not being able to move.
