Starship Troopers Role Play
Alright let me state first that I think this would be an awesome role play. There are already server out for it, and I watched some of the movie. It's really good, and instantly thought of antlions when I saw the arachnids. So I had to suggest this on the forums instantly, and as fast as I could. This has been done before yes, but Catalyst Gaming is well known, and i'm pretty much almost sure that at least some people would want a starship troopers role play server. Though the argument comes to mind that even if this did happen people don't want new players to start out being giant over powered bugs or marines with guns. I would suggest possibly a city map? Big city with a small star troopers base? Could have events for attacks, fires, and on the very rare setting make the server or a seperate server private to the marines only for a all out battle? I think it would work well, and for those who don't know what it is here is a video giving a brief look on what it really is, and also any thoughts on this? Personally I would love to see a server like this up.

I just found some screenshots of the early version. Though it still needs to get updated to Gmod13 but it's looking good. Dear god this looks amazing.

I did play SSTRP and i must say, it was fun but as its military RP, there is not much to do for players which dont enjoy Passive too much.
And events... All out battles with NPC's usally end in people not doing much other than shoot the NPC's directly and then act like badasses, and when admins try to spice it up, people usally go and get killed, then the shitstorm starts...
I must say i -Support this.
In SSTRP everyone gets one whitelist at the start, and that's the Army. Depending on the server, you will start off as a recruit, and what i did i went through intense two hour RP training doing the drills with about 10 other recruits.
We got taught all the basics
Example:
Formations
Basic Shooting Knowledge
Running/The Exercise Course
Basic Medical Stuff.
I cant really remember what else, also it had PAC Editor, Basically what Pac editor is, is you use props from the menu to edit your character, for example
I could get the metropolice mask and put it on my face, it'd be like i go in the pac menu, and then load like metropolicemask.mdl
or something like that

Lol excuse the trolly me on the right, but what else you could do is you could make a Stance, for example you could change this any time at your will, someone made a succesful prone stance, it's like your model, you click on it and it'll switch to that, we were making a prone stance but as you can see we ridciously failed. but there has been succesful ones

I will use spoilers to keep this looking small, that's another screen shot, excuse the top, that is the pac editor, i used it so i can get a ggood look at everyone, keep note that this was a long time ago.

Another picture, we were stacking up upon the wall.

That was one of the addons we used as an advantage, since the map was tremoundsley big, i mean REALLY big, we could use these warthogs and have a good fast paced escape, since the whole place was going to explode or i think we needed to get out of there since we were being over run, then we had a good 1-2 minute driving going extremely fast.

That is also my character, the LMG was granted for a special occasion as we were being overrun extremely.

This is the FPS view, you could also aim through it and the green bit would like fuzz around like a real electronic one.
That's all i've got to share, i've got some more but there pointless.
I hope this gives Roflwaffle or someone some encouragement to bring this up, if you get intimidated by this authorize a poll.
