General Discussion / See you all in the future, maybe.
« on: August 24, 2011, 02:04:42 AM »
I was going to make a really long thread, saying my goodbys, talking about good times, and listing reasons for leaving, but that's not really needed. I am done with this community. It's time to stop the charade. I've been playing nice and loyal for the past month to keep this decision quiet. Now, I'm being open about it. I will no longer be with CG's HL2RP. If you didn't notice, I have been slowly killing off my characters. This is so I can leave without causing any in-character issues. In short, I'm leaving because I fail to find good RP and when I suggest changed to improve RP, hardly anything happens.

I should say thanks to a few people though. I'm not that rude.

Waffle: Even though you have some issues, without you, I wouldn't have been able to experience all HL2RP can give to one without your time devoted to the community.

Karma: You have spent so much time developing for the game, I think your GMod hours are mostly on the Dev server.

Yankee: I know you don't hang out here much but you have helped me hundreds of times to improve HL2RP. At leas,t as much as we could.

Bullet: You too have helped me with improving HL2RP. Though mostly the CCA, you are so open to ideas. At least even trying them is nice. You are also the one who kick-started me into MedicRP.

Toy: You're one of the main reasons my knowledge on the HL2 Canon is so vast and rich. Even though I got most of my knowledge from the game and the Overwiki, you helped with the parts that were confusing and complicated.

Skeptik: You are the one who put my MedicRP skills to where they're at now. For that, I thank you.

The HL2RP community who cares about RP: Without you, I wouldn't have stayed for so long. I would like to make honourable mentions to the following people for striving to RP properly with minges about. YankeeSamurai, Burning Bullet, Dav, Rory Phillips, Logik, Ice, Karma, Slilent, Bobby, Col. Avalanche, Skeptik, BLT, chunkymonkey, Monkey with a Gun, Juggernaut, Nicknero, Hoplite, Teh Penguin, Tittles, Toy, Tray, Capt. Jack, Krystal, Inappropriate Grandma, and of course, Bokslag.


I didn't get to meet all of you OOCly but there are many, many other good roleplayers out there. Problem is, I'm tired of trying to make this work. Goodbye.

Half-Life 2 Roleplay / To those who want fishing mod.
« on: August 17, 2011, 12:12:10 PM »
Sorry but here's a little buzzkill for you. For one, you don't need a mod to RP fishing for food. Just RP it. Take a pole or something with a rope and a hook with bait on it, then dangle it in the water and RP catching fish. Be reasonable though.

Second thing which kind of voids half of the first thing is there are no more fish in HL2. The leeches and itchyosaurs caused almost all sea life to go extinct. However in lost coast, the fisherman talks about eating the leeches and how the seagulls keep the leech population down. You could catch them with nets probably.

Half-Life 2 Roleplay / What custom map should I make?
« on: August 17, 2011, 12:56:01 AM »
The custom map is more of a what we need now. The two servers, outlands and city, both have maps which are having a hard time supporting RP. The city has everything HL2RP needs but its bland. Outlands has paths to help move rebels along without being spotted and good hideouts but it's too cramped which takes away the vast feel outlands should have.

Here's my question. Should I work on City 32 (approximately 4-6 months) or City32 Outlands (approximately 2-4 months)?

Post input. The poll doesn't determine the outcome of this. Your input does. The poll just helps me see what people want more.

General Discussion / Test Drive Unlimited 2
« on: August 15, 2011, 08:07:37 PM »
Anyone got it? I want to go form some random dirt or highway cruises with people.

For those who don't know what it is. It's a driving game where you customize your avatars life. But houses, change stuff inside, buy cars. Have the cars showcased in your house. You can drive wherever the hell you want aside from in water. Example, one of the two islands is hawaii. Its a life size version of Hawaii and is ALMOST picture perfect too. You can take a 4x4 vehicle and just drive though corn fields and up mountains. Its more arcade then simulation though. It does have weather and day/night though.

IC Chat / 399; a series of critical errors
« on: July 28, 2011, 03:38:34 AM »
TIME: Tuesday, March 25th, 2016 0204hrs

    399 was working in her research and development office as usual. It was early in the morning and her energy levels were low but she continued working. She knew this solution would be a breakthrough in healing technology. In order to stay awake, she had taken amphetamines. She knew this drug wouldn't last long but insisted on working.

    The solution she wanted to work on was intended to promote cell regeneration without the use of sloppy biogel. The solution was a temporary drug that only lasted 24 hours. It becomes active within a minute of injection and can heal a closed wound within half an hour. It would come in use for field medicine as well as temporary triage centers.

    However, the active chemical in the solution was an off world chemical, transported by the union and classified to the research and development division only. This chemical combined with sulpheric acid should in theory create the solution when mixed at 343K. She had all the materials needed available and was ready to begin the procedure.

She started by pouring the off world chemical into the apparatus. She increased the heat till optimal temperature was reached. As she was measuring out the correct amount of sulpheric acid, she accidentally increased the heat to 394K. The drugs she took made her oblivious to the change in temperature. She began pouring the sulpheric acid into the solution, a flame jumped from the overheated chemical to the acid solution. Suprised, she dripped the entire sample of acid into the apparatus. This combustion created sulphur monoxide.

    The room eventually began filling with this toxic gas. 399 immediately contacted a grid unit. She had to keep the contaminant contained. She requested a biohazard seal on the door and ventalation system. She also enabled her biohazard protection system on her suit. The smoke and gas grew thicker, visibility dropped dramatically. She noticed something wrong with her protection system. The filter on her mask was damaged and couldn't correctly filter air. She couldn't leave or the entire nexus would be filled with this contaminant. The solution kept burning, spewing clouds of blue smoke and sulphur monoxide.

    She began to fint it difficult to breathe. In an increasingly raspy voice, she gave as much information to the grid unit outside as possible. With every breath she took, the sulphur monoxide gas killed cells in her lungs. This made it diffiult to absorb oxygen and excrete carbon dioxide. She was still in a poor mental state due to the energy drugs but she managed to figure it the fire needed to be suppressed. Her vital signs began to go critical, heart rate  increasing, pH levels high, blood pressure low. She crawled to the sink with a bucket, hacking and trying to get air. It was almost too much but she pushed on.

    Without thinking, she filled the bucket with water and dragged it to the testing counter. She was about to dump it but her mental state returned. The blue fire couldn't he suppressed by water. She dumped the bucket of water on the floor beside her, making it a bit slippery. She then flipped the bucket upside down and dropped it over the apparatus. She turned and slipped back to the ground. At this point she had no energy left to do anything. Slipping out of conciousness she grabbed her transmit button. In one final attempt to live, she spoke, "Cont..aminant s-source, sup- suppressed. Th-three, nine n-nine. Out." and with that, she fell limp. A few moments later, a biosognal lost message was broadcasted across the radio. It was the end to 399.

Half-Life 2 Roleplay / How to immerse yourself with music in HL2RP
« on: July 27, 2011, 02:04:02 PM »
Listen to immediate music. Its epic and really gets you into the moment. You can find slow music for sad times, calm music for, well calm times. Or fast, aggressive music for running or fighting.

Half-Life 2 Roleplay / S2? Rules still suck balls.
« on: July 27, 2011, 01:53:20 PM »
Yes I know its another rant but it seems the only way things change here is is Someone rants about it. So here we go.

    Currently, the S2M/S2K rules state that higher class players have a better chance at hitting. Now, there is NO RP in this WHATSOEVER. Example, last night, me and my Reformers buddy were in sewers cause that's where the initial base was. We had just finished looking around the city for anything of interest and returned to the sewers. A bunch of lolwebs somehow had guns and were shooting CP's outside which resulted in a sweep. Now I knew it was my fault for camping down there in the first place so I thought I might as well RP it. Me and my bud hid in a dark area in between the track and the wall.

    I had an admin request call so I went in to observer mode and checked it out. When I returned, the units were moving in on our position. My observer glitched and somehow spawned me outside so I quickly glitched myself to get back in. Before I could get out of observer mode, a soldier spotted my friend and without any RP or anything, instantly headshot him. I discussed it with skeptik and we decided to RP the firefight for a bit before he killed us. It was so much better that way. We S2M'd for a couple minutes, yelling and shouting ICly, having a good time.

    The way we decided who wins was simple. OTA have supreme firearms training so they would most likely finish us, however we managed to get out of the city, into the outlands, survive a couple months, then get back in the city so we decided a TK would be the best option.

Thats when Skeptik S2K'd us, sorta. He killed his own units at the same time but thats also aside the point.


TL;DR: The current S2? rules are stupid and restrict RP. I think it should work like this.

1. OTA finds armed resistance
2. OTA fires off 1 warning shot to get their attention
3. OOCly OTA and resistance talk about the situation and what the outcome should be (PK, TK, OTA dies (TK), Rebels escape)
4. Scenario played through
5. Good times

Please consider this as a change to make RP more enjoyable.

-ADD-

If the other group runs away with no RP or fights back with no RP then yes you have the right to S2K.

Half-Life 2 Roleplay / Is High Tech clean out of canon?
« on: July 26, 2011, 02:38:12 AM »
Title says it all. The look of C8 is what I mean by high tech clean. Amaria Industries aka CWU block is a shining example of this. The nexus is also another example. This will help me design higher valued buildings such as CWU HQ or Nexus in C32. Also, the high tech buttons and monitors around the city. IE the touch screen button to enter Housing Block B.

IC Chat / [post-event]Housing Block B Collapse
« on: July 23, 2011, 12:31:01 PM »
A bit late but here it is.

A fire started from a gas leak at the CWU food stall. Due to some slow response time from the CCA, the gas lines weren't shut down even though there were several grid units online. This neglect resulted in the B block apartment catching fire from one of the many gas explosions caused by the faulty pipe. The CCA also had horrible fire fighting skills and before they could get the blaze under control, the building began to fall apart. It collapsed, only killing one not so intelligent citizen. The fire was finally put under control. Block A also caught on fire but it was successfully taken care of in time.

Block B now requires reconstruction. Post here when it has been rebuilt. You need to give me a summary of the event if you do rebuild it.

Half-Life 2 Roleplay / City 32 location change? [POLL]
« on: July 20, 2011, 05:58:24 PM »
I lack the artistic ability to create a European city. Even though I've been there, I just cant seem to get it right. My strengths lie in north american cities, not European. I know someone who would probably be able to get us a European city but I want to know what you guys think. I wont be working on City32 if it's not NA.

IC Chat / [post-event] Ration Terminal Collapse
« on: July 17, 2011, 04:12:17 PM »
Out of Character for OOC:
A bomb was planted at the ration distribution centre. It blew one of the pillars, causing the roof to collapse. It still needs to be cleaned up.

Post here when someone gets it fixed.

-edit-

Someone cleaned it up and didn't post. Whoever did, I am not amused.
