Title: Some Fun Minor Injury RP You Can Do to Spice Up RP
Post by: Statua on March 30, 2012, 01:27:16 PM

The biggest letdown of medical rp is hardly anyone roleplays minor injuries to mend to. Minor being a little cut or a sliver you cant get out or maybe a minor sprain. I also see a VERY low (if not zero) amount of illnesses. Living in the outlands or the city as a citizen or a refugee, you are exposed to many different forms of bacteria and illness should be common. To give the medics a thing to do rather then sitting around, include some of the following into your RP:

-Injuries-
Minor cuts from running past objects or tree branches
Abrasions from tripping and sliding or running too close to a rough wall
Bruising from hitting or getting hit by an object
Splinters from skin against wood friction
Minor sprain from tripping and falling or twisting an ankel

-Illnesses-
Cough
Runny Nose
Vomiting
Feaver
Sweating
Chills
Shaking

None of these have to negatively affect your character if you dont want to. Just give the medical roleplayers a task. And dont complain you have nothing to do cause thats something you can do.

Sounds good. Another suggestion for disease:
wound infection. Honestly. Get that shit cleaned, fast.

Nice, totally agree. However, I notice thatalmost every time I try to make an RP situation (not related to medical), all I get is a beating or detainment. For example, once I RPed tripping off a curb and spraining my ankle, I was then asked by a civil protection unit to face the wall and I got a beating...

Then the leader of the cca needs to beat it cause they are killing citizen rp.

Yeah had some good medical role play within first days of join, even though it started by getting hit in the head by a shovel. Still the roleplay was a nice twist with the kind CWU medical lady, even though a different person came around and hit us both in the heads with the shovel. (in front of the nexus even.) So that limp across town and the medical rp in the CWU medical place was really nice especially compared to the usual romp around town talking to citizens.

Wow, most of the injuries listed above I've never done, or have even thought of doing. Great suggestions, thanks for this. You've done us RP'ers well, good sir!

Very good, Statua. People should start doing this more often, because frankly, no one does InjuryRP anymore.

Stickied.

Doing what more often? Getting sick? The only character I use is Violet and she already is a medic so that reduces the chances of a medic being online. I always did this for Leonard.

I would RP that stuff more but sadly there is never a medic around when im on.  :P

I really support those suggestions and are already using some of them myself.
Though I agree with, CCA killing the civil rp.
I've got a unit myself and I can see, several times on a day, units beating civils for just tripping.
Again, many of those, just do a /me trips and nothing else.
Another problem is the lack of CWU medical personal. The one I see most is: Lela Praise (THANKS!) so its hard to do some "okay" injury / illness rp. If you just go to a unit and tell them your problems, they'll be like: "I don't care, we don't use our supplies on citizens", which is (Again) killing the civil rp.
Only unit I've seen treating a civil, was 298, treating my civils broken leg, inside the nexus detainment. Even in front of a higher ranked unit, who could had reported him in.
Great support to your idea Statua, but we need more medical CWU for most of it.

Yeah but there's no excuse on the outlands. Theres tons of medics there and WAAAY more things to get injured on.

Title: Re: Some Fun Minor Injury RP You Can Do to Spice Up RP
Post by: Zail on April 16, 2012, 08:13:28 PM

That's true, yes. (God damn a quick respond.)
I am playing on the outlands server and I'm enjoying a lot of rp with Alex, the ex-admin, having a nice talk in the dark tunnel beneath the bunker or sniper practice.
I agree with you, there's a lot more medics on outlands, than inside the city, which only inactive CWU personel is the so called "medic."
I've seen so far, a person in medical rebel uniform and an rp situation, where I felt down from a rock and a person immediately came to help me. Only problem was; server crashed and the "medic" didn't come back online.

While this is an awesome idea, and I've done it myself, the whole CCA killing the RP is clear. It's just annoying how they just go "We don't care", laugh at you, and then throw you in a dumpster after beating you or something. Still something to do i guess, but it, a lot of times, turns out to be a huge waste of time. Maybe you CCA people will actually roleplay this stuff more instead of ignoring it, hopefully...

On the one side, I agree that CCA shouldn't kill the RP in way you have described in previous posts.
On the second side, I understand CCA units. We are told we CANNOT "waste" our resources on citizens. So yeah, that's why. You help a injured / ill citizen, then some whore unit notices you, reports you, and you get punished for promoting RP.

lol i have excuses for this. If i see a citizen who needs medical attention, i give it ti them, then use them as a test subject where anything can happen to them.

I've been trying some fun minor Medical RP(Matt aging and such), but I find there is hardly anyone who cares/doesn't know what do to besides offer me a piggy back ride.

You know... I really want to do that kind of roleplay now, but I do have one question where can I find the medical characters to tell them about my problem.

CWU members, maybe also a CCA recruit/05.

Post by: Egf_Adam on June 17, 2012, 11:17:36 AM

I understand this is more than minor but I would really have to say this. a lot of people who live in the outlands are constantly exposed to cold and damp weather. It would make sense for a small percentage of the people who have damaged/no shoes to possible contract trench foot?

(Trench foot is when, at extrem cases, your toes rot off and your foot becomes a club)

I think more injury Rp would be great, but my friend was in prison ( I was in a cell not to far from him ) and he was rping having stomach problems. The CP took him to a room and said it was for "Treatment", and then they killed him with a laser.

That same time I was RPing a bullet wound that I had to remove the bullet with my bare hands, because the Cp had shot be before detainment. I was passing out, bleeding all over the windows, and the CP just told me to be quiet.

I personally love injury RP, but it is annoying when someone randomly has a stroke in the middle of town >.>

Minor RP from this is nice to see on the server, shows I'm not the only one doing passive.

Shoulda appealed it. Part of good RP is the officer asking you what you have. Nova don't just go 'HE'S SICK, EXTERMINATE!' and higher ranks cant just go 'HES SICK, EXTERMINATE!' without having a nova look at you, no matter what. even if they're a UU officer. That sounds fucking retarted to me. But i guess some people have hard-ons for PKing, amirite?

There are many problems with pain RPing, as many people don't, grasp, the concept. Scenario: I shoot you in the arm. You wouldn't start running around like you're in a marathon. If you get hit in the leg, you will fall/stumble. If I cough up blood, people wouldn't just go, "Hurr durr kick him he ded". Just, try and, teach, them. Most of them don't get it. But, some great suggestions. Thank you.
