I can be sitting in a united cities town, imperial lords or the holy empire run in, down all of my guys, the police dont bat an eye and the united cities dont seem to be hostile to anyone anymore. Its pretty lame.

Nevermind that. I can't even find a single police station in 0.5 Even before 0.5, not all places had a station, but the all had a barracks at least. Now however, I can't at all go bounty hunting. For petes sakes, put prison cells in all the police barracks at the very least! :x

EDIT: Seems the "Police" Stations are now marked the same as trading posts, which is no help. There is still a lack of prison cells I can just walk up to and hand over a bounty.

and hospitals. If the cops no longer give first aid to wounded rock bottom people, then we should at least have a hospital to visit.

It gets really bad if you run out of med kits and the town no longer has an item trader because they decided to wonder off.

The police never healed you either, or did they? Because they always ignored me in that way.

I've noticed that in Brink, the Police Station is now marked as a Trade Center, yet there is still a Police Sargeant behind the counter as opposed to a Items Trader Advanced...

If you have multiple bounties, the Sargeant takes the new bounty from you and dumps the old bounty unceremoniously on the floor next to him...after a while, he has a pile of bodies at his feet, and the latest turn-in slung over his shoulder like a sack of laundry.

The Police are still there...it's just not obvious...and there's still a police station in Catan, so bounty hunting is still a great option in the west central portion of the map....

Hate to break it to you, but in real life, ambulances and hospitals aren't operated by the police. Furthermore, there ARE NPCs who can heal you (at the independent trade stations) and we have the flophouses for resting up and healing your squad.
