Dear This Is the Police community,

we are happy to announce that we have just activated Trading Cards on the game! Hope you like that.

In addition to that, for all who have not noticed, yesterday evening a big balance update (patch 1.0.2) has been released. Being a cop shouldn't be that hard, right? Check out the changelog: https://steamcommunity.com/games/785740/announcements/detail/1697180487041378491
Stay tuned

Hey guys!
Thank you all so much for your feedback. We’re working hard to address all the issues and to make the game more fun to play. In this update we’ve made a lot of balance improvements, we hope you’ll enjoy them.

• You get rewarded more for arresting criminals and punished less for missing them.
  
• Professionalism requirements are lower for all missions now
  
• You starting team of cops is much better now
  
• Your cops don’t lose stamina points just for coming in to work, only for actually doing something
  
• Your cops fully recover their stamina after a day off
  
• Your cops don’t lose stamina points for responding to false alarms
  
• Tab prices for cops and equipments are revised
  
• Your cops don’t come up with excuses and stay home as often as they used to
  
• Your cops don’t drink as much as they used to (weird, right?)

• Fixes an issue in investigation screen that would result in duplicated frames and block progress
  
• Some fixes to text

if you are getting an error message while launching the game, you need to remove and reinstall the game. This seems to be an issue caused by Steam client on macOS.

Hello everyone. We're trying to fix issues people have with the game as soon as possible. Here's the first patch with fixes:

• Fixed a serious bug blocking the gameplay in the first investigation if played on Chinese or Japanese language
  
• Fixed mouse input on PCs with touchscreen
  
• Changes to game balance
  
• Fixed a glitch that would cause double items in storage
  
• Some fixes to Chinese, Japanese and Korean text rendering, like bigger font for tutorials

• Your starting team of cops is better now
  
• Professionalism requirement for calls is lowered for the first week (and for some other portions of the game)
  
• The game punishes you less for escaped offenders, killed civilians and skipped tactical missions
  
• The game rewards you more for closed investigations and destroyed gangs

Vienna, Austria/Minsk, Belarus, July 31st, 2018: What's wrong with our publishing buttons? Somebody write us a ticket: After forgetting to press the ‘Go Live’ button for the original This Is The Police PC release, this time we pressed it a bit too early… So ignore our previous 2 August release date: This Is the Police 2 is out… now! And that two-day head start is good, as Sharpwood desperately needs a new Sheriff. We hope you’re ready to report for duty.

About This Is the Police 2
Just like the first game, This Is the Police 2 is a mixture of adventure and management genres, and this time it enjoys further mechanics that will strengthen both the strategic and tactical parts of the game. It won’t be enough just managing the equipment of your policemen and keeping in mind their individual skills. Every challenge requires the player’s direct participation on a tactical combat scene, and the outcomes will depend on every decision you make. Now your subordinates aren’t just some resource; they are living people with their own strengths, weaknesses, fears and prejudices, and you'll have to reckon with all these things in order to survive.

There’s a new sheriff in town! Interpret the law as you see fit in This Is the Police 2

Sequel to the acclaimed This Is the Police comes to PC and consoles later this year

Vienna, Austria/Minsk, Belarus, January 30th, 2018: Welcome to Sharpwood, a remote border town in the north. It's a rough, cold place, where inhabitants know their neighbors by name and faithfully keep to their traditions, no matter how barbaric those traditions might be. Smugglers, gangs and screaming populists have made this town their home. Despair grows like a cancer, hand in hand with violence.

Make sure to wishlist this game to stay up-to-date.

It’s a hell of a job for the new sheriff, Lilly Reed (voiced by Sarah Hamilton, of the celebrated adventure saga The Longest Journey). She has to maintain order and peace even though her subordinates are uncouth men who aren’t used to receiving commands from a young woman. But everything changes when a mysterious stranger calling himself Warren Nash appears in Sharpwood. And no one knows what he'll bring to the town: salvation or perdition.
