Shock Roleplay

Shock Roleplay

Alright, some of you may know me, some of you may not. I'm starting a new community. This is gonna be my last go at HL2RP. I'm gonna try recreating the strict environment of HL2RP. I'll describe it below..​

What makes our roleplay better?

First, let's go over the roleplay in general. Instead of all those Lolfucking rebels, we have this idea of doing time periods. Right now we're in the 'Dark Age' period. This is when the security of the city is at the MAX. All resistance is formed by IC hatred by characters toward the Combine. Literally, everything is clamped off, it's all accessed through district cards in which are unobtainable and even if a citizen has one, only certain fields are granted access with them. We also have curfew. We will restrict this to the apartments, and NOBODY is allowed out of the building until curfew is up. We're still working out the kinks of that, times and what not.




What makes us Unique?

Well for starters, it may not be a lot, but we don't call our MPF, MPF. It's a UEA, which I don't believe anyone has used yet. -Don't hold me to that.- We also plan to wait until further into the story to reveal the SeC. Rather him being from the start, we have 3 Divisionals. They are pretty much what makes the core of the city. Yes, we have the City Council, BUT they're, like usual, puppets. We plan to have a CWU Coordinator though, as well as a City Coordinator. To top it all off, we will have an application that if you have a high enough ranked MPF from another city (server that may be gone or you've just grown old from), you may apply to make a 'visiting unit' that will have the same powers as any other unit, minus the fact of being able to order other units of their rank or higher around, or bypass a direct order from another unit of their rank or higher. They MUST be an 01 or higher to apply.

Re: Shock Roleplay

I feel like this servers roleplay will be very combine oriented, repetative, and controlling.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Combined Oriented in the start, explain the repetitive part. Also, the server SHOULD be controlled by the MPF. That's the problem with servers now, they don't put enough power in the combine to ALLOW them to control. They restrict it, but if you remember in HL2, they ruled with an iron fist. As did most of the servers do with the combine on OA and Nexus.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Preach.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Clockwork has ruined, yet revived HL2RP. I plan to give it one last go, and HOPEFULLY get some of the older roleplayers who actually remember how roleplay use to be start RPing. I'm so over the derpy shit that people do on the new HL2RP's. It sickens me to no end.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Viva la fucking revolution.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Most defiantly.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

So, the thread is still under "construction" or is this it?

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Well, for now it's done. Once the forums are done, I'll update it. More details about the community and our RP and such will be posted in there.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

You don't understand servers.

All new players start out as citizens. You are supposed to focus on citizen Roleplay more than anything else. Not action events but passive events and always have interactive things for citizens to do around the map. It shouldn't always be constricted with combine and a JW for a stolen ration. It's about appealing to the citizens, and keeping them under watch.


Edit: I incorporate the idea of extreme control in our community, we have a curfew and frequent inspections and sweeps and clamped and locked points, but we still give freedom to citizens so they are not always confined and cramped.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

That is where you're wrong. Yes, we should appeal to citizen roleplay, but giving citizens TOO much freedom is defeating the purpose. I think I know well enough, after playing, hosting, and directing many communities over HL2RP to know that when you get a HL2RP server, and I can watch the citizens basically look at the combine, and laugh, something is wrong. Back in the day, literally if you spoke above a whisper, you were re-educated. If you laughed, you were re-educated. Wanna know how populated the servers were? 32/48 all the time. Trust me, if I can get a good set of roleplayer's we can make it worth wild. I can't do it all on my own, nor can my Co-Owner, or staff. It's a community effort.

EDIT: Also, no offense, but I've played on your server. Much lag, and it honestly doesn't have that well of RP.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Gottcha.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

For you, and any others who may have questions about it, you can add me on steam. I could inform you to the best of my abilities!

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Speaking of this sort of thing actually I was pretty annoyed at how true this seems, citizens walk without fear and have the cheek to talk back to CPs and they do nothing about it! The server I'm with currently is changing the UCP a lot from a suggestion I posted. It's going to implement proper fear into the citizens by implementing fear into the units. Refusal to be aggressive towards citizens? Family cohesion threatened, deservicement and all that. Should bring back the old feel to HL2RP.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

I think you forgot off-world relocation, the funniest one by far :3

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

My guess is that they are forced to serve in either the Overworld or another Combine-controlled universe.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

I would've thought they opened a Combine portal and just lobbed you into it, letting you suffocate.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

Guysss, this thread is derailed. We got from a community to offworld relocation. Back on topic.

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

See, it seems you all want it. I have a server, it may be small but we can always enlarge. Why not this weekend we give it a try? If you don't like it, I'll say fuck it and stop the gamemode right then. BUT If you guys do, we will continue to play? Yeah?

 

Re: Shock Roleplay

If I've got some time, I'll try.
