Spectral Union New HL2RP server.

General information:
Map: City18_V1
Slots: 20
IP: 66.150.121.57:27015
Owner: Phreaked
Co-Owner: Joe
Admins: Currently recruiting. Contact myself or Phreaked if you wish to join.
Forums: http://spectralhl2rp.us/
General Canon: You depart from a distant but memorial place, your old "home". You arrive in City Eighteen, Norway. Resources are currently scarce. The resistance is starting to become agressive. You have the choice to pick a side. Join the combine to save yourself, or join the fight back to save all of humanity. Or maybe you won't need to pick a side at all?
Our rules:
Rule 1: Use your common sense. Thats all you need for a smooth roleplay situation.
Rule 2: Don't powergame. Powergaming is forcing your actions upon others.
Rule 3: Do not RDM. Pretty self explanatory.
Rule 4: Don't hack (of course, but every so often children try to loop hole)
Rule 5: Be considerate to others. If you are a unit don't call people idiots or noobs who aren't. Your status does not determine intelligence or how cool you are.
Rule 6: Don't argue VIA YOU'RE A DUMB FAGGET, if you feel something is unjust, or incorrect, contact me on steam.
Rule 7: Punch Whoring. As you are able to punch in a fight to do damage to players, you are only allowed to punch another player if it is well rped, and you won the roll in a 1 v 1. Circumstances in a fight effect the outcome so be prepared!
Rule 8: Refrain from annoying others, joking around is acceptable, but when you go around doing Joe says "Fuck you lol" Joe [LOOC] Lolvoid. It gets annoying and ruins the fun for other players and causes almost a rift in roleplay.
Rule 9: See a glitch, or people abusing a bug? Please report it because glitching is against the rules, the person will be dealt with accordingly.
Rule 10: Listen to admin feedback. Example (*Joe slowly walks up to the man, his fists clenched, he attempts to punch the man in the face* ADMIN "This /me is incorrect because it shows many actions, and the man could've reacted accordingly to you walking to him with your fists clenched" Joe "Oh okay, thank you.") If you think admins are harrasing you, and forcing you to submit to a incorrect way of playing, contact myself, of Phreaked.
Rolling: Rolling IS ONLY USED IN FIST FIGHTS. Or with passive rp! No roll bonus on passive!
Attacking from behind is a P2L for the person you are attacking! You are not spider man, you don't have super senses!
PET: We have a strict rule with PET. No asspulling will be done with PET. Only legit items can be obtained. Furniture is permitted, how ever if you want a webul computer lab. No.
Keys: Only certain buildings are ownable on our map. EX: Apartments in the plaza, Apartments in the slums. Red Room, Store, Nargodian, XCCR are un-ownabled unless you get an IC key. (talk to an administrator and you can obtain one quite easily). Because just walking up to a door and pressing F2 is asspulling the key, how ever in certain buildings keys are stored inside of the facility and can be accessed (apartment complexes)
General information (IC):
Flags: EVERYONE HAS PE FLAGS (No you can not propkill so veterans no need to be afraid of minges). Other flags are obtained from super admins. Contact one for a flag you would like!
We Encourage:
Passion RP: Sex RP, Romance RP, all contribute to the schema of a humane struggle, in a big world ruled by dictator
Passive RP: Simply talking, doing simple tasks and having a slow paced rp senario. It can transition to any type of rp! Thats what makes it needed!
Fighting: We need action and battles on the server to keep it interesting and create both passion and passive rp. There will be both peaceful and violent times in any society.


CCA apps: IC/OOC
Vort apps: OOC
Crafting weapons: Steam chat

Citizens: Citizens on our server, aren't brainless slugs who slug around a backpack and sit in the plaza all day, they are people with emotions and instincts.

How you can RP as a citizen:


Refugee: The vast majority of citizens in HL2, are hoping, and helpful towards the resistance. Refugees, hide resistance members, try to aid them during fights, and help transfer medical drops, food drops, ETC. You can either join the CCA, as an undercover, or you can flat out join the resistance. As a resistance member, your weapons are flimsly (shanks, cleavers etc) but you are permitted to craft a crossbow/bolts/grappling hook/AK47, and use these weapons to your advantage. We will ONLY permit the crafting of the items listed above.
Crafting items, are not IC, and you ONLY need an OK from a super admin to get a weapon. We don't like limiting people
Resistance Rules
1. To actually become a resistance member, IC'ly you'd have to find some kind of evidence to prove the union guilty ( Taking pictures would be good evidence of your in-game evidence )
2. Resistance characters are not permitted to kill civilians for dark rp reasons. If a refugee strolls into your base, don't kill him, simply ask him to leave if you do not like him (icly), or bring him to your base. Killing other refugees is counter productive, and therefore fail rp for a resistance character.
3. As a resistance character you may not raid the nexus, unless a siege event is under way.
4. Help feed the citizens! Smuggle food into the apartment complex and feed people, we added War Z consumables for this reason!


Loyalist: Loyalists are people who are easily conveyed, and therefore loyal to the benefactors. All though naive, they have the trust of the benefactors, and appear to have more rights. They are used as models for society. From loyalist, you can join an undercover faction of citizens who infiltrate the resistance and imprision refugees, or you can join the CCA/CWU.
Union Of Citizen Employment

UNION Assigned Technician, as a UAT, you will be taken into the Nexus for technical work by an officer on the METRO division.

UNION Assigned Doctor, as a UAD, you will be taken into the Nexus for medical work by an officer on the SURGEON division.

UNION Assigned Mechanic, as a UAM, you will be taken into the Nexus for mechanical work by an officer on the METRO division.

( When you have a UNION Assigned job, you are taken into the Nexus, and are HIGHLY brainwashed, also, you're trained. )

The map we are using which is rp_c18_v1 ( I know, over-used, but it's we don't have much of a community, so a small map is needed )
is set in Arendal, Norway. MPF officers have norwegian accents also but, it is mostly covered by their vo-coder.


Neutral: You don't know where to go, and are confused about where you stand. You can develope your character to go either way, or help a CCA one day, and help the resistance another.


CCA: Divisions and Ranks
[/B]
-VORTEX, the VORTEX division is the main combat division, they are the first to go in on any raids.
-SURGEON, the SURGEON division is the medical division, they perform surgery on units and are stationed in the hospital near the nexus.
-METRO, the METRO division is the technological/mechanical divison, they work on technology in the nexus and fix things ranging from vehicles to weapons. They also man the APCs.
-HUNTER, the HUNTER squad is the recruiting/recon division, they will recruit units and be recon units in any raids or sweeps for backup.

RCT- You have only a stunstick, have to FEAR RP more often, and have no idea whats going on. You're just starting off and are still malnourished, and still like the citizens.
05- You now have a pistol, and only need to FEAR RP, around highly ranked officers, and during fire fights. You can be hardass, but you need a legit reason. You are still slightly malnourished though, so you get no roll bonus in a fist fight.
04- You now have basic training, a pistol and have become adjusted into the CCA. You now can be a hardass, you are well fed, and you get a +10 roll bonus in a fight. However, a slight fear rp is needed around highly ranked units.
03- You now have a SMG, and if you did not enter the CCA pre-meditating going rogue, you can NOT go rogue. You are now developing muscle, have little to no remorse for citizens, and no more fear rp around highly ranked units. You gain a +15 roll bonus
02- Pretty much the same an 03, but more trust and authority, brainwashing starts today.
01- Shotgun, complete hardass, +25 roll bonus, no fear rp.
Highly ranked officers: +30 roll bonus all weaponry, no fear rp advanced marksman training.


Some Roleplay Enchancing items we have added:
Combine APC- Fully mannable, turrents, missiles, 10 people can get into the APC.
Beta Citizen Models- Just an upgrade from our plain regular models.
War Z consumables- Realistic for resistance good for food drops.
Ciggarettes- A stress reliever, probable for stressed characters to use.
MPF outfit with stunstick- If you mug a unit for his uniform you can have an actual uniform, while staying on the citizen leader boards, and you will never need a model change.
CWU uniform/ID Card- You can also mug a CWU for their uniform, or pick pocket them for their card. This will give you access to zones restricted to CWU workers, such as the CWU HQ or the hospital.
AK47- The only probable weapon that could still be found in HL2rp, massively produced, and easy to build at home the AK47, is an ideal resistance weapon.
The Pill Pack- Allows you to play as a zombie, headcrab,strider, and many more classes with the functions of a real HL2 vortigaunt, zombie ETC.
Vortigaunt Beam- Allows you to have a cool beam that you fire from your hands! Beams do about 50% damage to your HP. So its a 2 hit for a citizen, and maybe 3-4 hits for a unit, and 4-6 hits for a OTA.
Glow Sticks- Glow sticks are ideal, for citizens, combine, and resistance alike. As a citizen, the CCA would most likely supply glow sticks instead of flashlights because, while flashlights are potential weapons, glow sticks are harmless. Also resistance can grapple to a roof, and throw a glow stick down to see their enemies, and cause a distraction. Same with the combine.
Melee weapons- Now you can craft, actual melee weapons and use them accordingly.
Thats all I got, I am completely open to suggestions and want your feedback! If you posted against the older thread, please snip, or change your opinion if you feel we bettered the thread! For EX: Use more BB code. Well I have so it would work to just snip it or say GJ.

 

-snip- adding into OP

 

Forums look nice for a free forum site, I'll give you that.
Doesn't really look presentable though, I'll try joining.

 

I didn't fully describe the server in my post. But if you add me on steam we can chat, and you can give it a try.

 

It'd be better if you explained in your post so you explain to EVERYONE, not just me.

 

Okay, just don't really see whats not presentable about the server, mind explaining either here, or on a steam chat?

 

Rule 1

No Cheating

Rule 2

No Hacking

Rule 3

Don't be an idiot

Rule 4

Follow our HL2RP style

Rule 5

Respect every other member as you'd like to be respected



I'll just check the server out first.

 

Yes, I got him to remove those rules as I am the leader of this post. I am going to fully revise the rules. Refresh the post in 10 minutes

 

Good you changed the rules and the forum looks nice like Sloth said, I'll check it out.

 

Server is open if anyone wants to join!

spectralunion.game.nfoservers.com:27015

 

I never thought I'd say this, but use more BBcode. The formatting ain't good.

 

Sure thanks for the suggestion

 

Everyone has PE flags?

Bad Idea.

Your rank structure is flawed and very basic, although your UNION citizen positions are quite nice.

So far a 5/10

 

-snip-
I posted on the wrong thread

 

Well, PE flags, we're trying to give people some freedom, and the people who just come in and abuse it will be banned, that's all. There are some restrictions on it also, such as it's impossible to prop kill and prop climb.

If you look on the facepunch thread there is a lot more stuff that my co did not add for some reason, so check it out at http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1368146

 

Your rules are still...pretty bad.

 

Try checking the facepunch, my co hasn't been on to update this thread.

 

Spoiler

It should simply be a copy & paste from Facepunch, nothing too difficult.

 

No. The OP will be updated when it is, sorry, otherwise go on the facepunch thread or here...

So you're able to copy and paste in to pastebin but not on here? lolwtf
