Since certain people are taking ages to put the final poll up, I have done it instead based on the top 3 choices from the previous one.
Here is what to vote for:
Our own canon
We could create our own custom canon which can evolve to create a dynamic and interesting RP experience. While originally it was stated that a unique serious RP server would be post-apocalyptic, that does not have to be the case. Statua made a post about how this could work and can be viewed here. One problem that may occur is it could turn out to be just like HL2RP but with another skin over it but people may want to do this to freshen it up.
PrisonRP
Set in a prison, this would involve prisoners and guards. While it may sound like the oppressive environment would hinder any RP that occurs, there is plenty potential for RP between the prisoners. Whether it be a hit in the showers, small talk on the sports court, or a drug deal right under the Warden's nose, there would be plenty of opportunities for fans to recreate their favorite scenes from The Shawshank Redemption. It is entirely possible that it could turn into what HL2RP used to be minus streets and civilians, but it can be overcome by using a different prison system and guidelines to avoid it as much as possible.
Metro 2033
Would be set in Moscow, and primarily based underground in the metro system. RP would be incredibly diverse as there are many factions and hazards associated with this post-apocalyptic universe, including communists, neo-Nazis, bandits, and the obligatory mutants that may or may not have supernatural powers. One criticism many have stated is that the idea of a Metro 2033 RP server is not as unique as the other two options, but it also depends on the quality of the other servers and if we can provide a better experience.
Go vote.

there goes my hope for serious rp

we have the chance to make something great but noone wants anything original

Apparently there's some ideas for Metro 2033 to be unique. I'm interested. Still voted for a unique canon as I've always wanted to see how it'd work out but meh. I'll have fun on 2033 RP if it wins.

'oh shit prisonrp won'
'quick! make a final poll!!!'

it was planned from the start to go to a final 3 poll regardless lol pls do not be upset :~)
-
Could we have the original post edited to be non-bias please? The structure of the descriptions can (and will) adversely affect people's perception and thus their votes on the final RP of choice.
-
iirc metro 2033 is all underground apart from the surface which is essentially outlands correct? If that's the case, a map would be very possible to combine both civilization and survival into the same server.

there's already an existing map that's a pretty great representation of the tunnels

The surface is a harsh "Gold-mine", as pretty much things are only worn by time rather than pilfered and salvaged. However the surface is cold as balls, windy, the air is harsh to breathe (it can kill you in minutes), there are all sorts of mutants prowling the surface which have a PHD in killing people, and finally the Kremlin rests on the horizon.
As for an 'outlands' server, it would be 90% ranger outposts and 5/5 Reich and Red patrols, then 120% mutants.

Have to agree that at least the Prison RP and Metro 2033 descriptions sound pretty biased. Will edit.
-
your supposed to unbiase them when you edit it, not make the 1st and 2nd option sound better while giving metro 2033 shit, time to edit it again

Yeah I know. I'm talking about combining metro with surface for a combined server instead of having 2 servers.

I'm sure it's more than possible. Not only could we have an extensive map of tunnels the size of our current HRP map, but I'm sure there's more than enough upward space to build a surface wasteland on top of it.
-
It's possible. Going to require a really good plan to keep it optimized and under the limits. I think it would be an exciting project.
Prison rp is catching up though.

thanks

We wouldn't even need a surface with this map

I lost count of the amount of times I got completely lost.

As entertaining as I find this argument, I'm going to end this.
Stop causing drama or I will start handing out warnings.
-
Cleaned up the thread - will be removing any posts breaking rules and handing out bans. We'll be checking the votes for alt accounts, so don't worry about that

I'll honestly just vote for a different rp if we won't have a surface

imo surface should just be put up on some temporary passworded server if people are going to risk going up there
it'd be cool to have it so that if it's not a big faction going up such as the reich then it'd be a group of say 4 or 5 people with an admin (or just anybody in observer) acting as a game master

I really don't like the gamemaster idea, I'd rather have as much scripted and automatic stuff as possible and I think it would be interesting if the surface worked basically like sstrp would have considering we could have actual sweps
-
The sstrp style for the surface sounds neat. What map would be used though. My project list is full right now.

well the coding for this wouldn't be finished for a quite a while i presume, so maybe your list would be a bit more empty when it's time
-
I say we do what has already been mentioned and just put the surface on above ground. I understand Statua is currently busy atm with Rockford but I doubt this gamemode is going to be released anytime soon(Right...?) so maybe after he's done...? Or we could just use some stalker map for the surface, that'd work.
-
Trust me, there are PLENTY of maps to use for the surface. As for the underground there is a ton as well, and I know at least 3-4 offhand that are great.
-
I have potentially 9 other projects on my waiting list. I dont expect them all to follow through but I currently am working on 2 (halorp and hrp) and 2 other clients confirmed a spot after so yeah. Rockford is done cow lol.

hello
um
oz
Hmm ok. Well I'm sure we won't have to much of a problem finding someone that could make a map? Assuming it all works out with some pre-made map, get the ball rolling on donations and longevity, idk?
-
Would love to see Prison RP, would play it if I could ever find a server for it.
-
PrisonRP sounds like a great idea though i doubt people will actually follow the SeriousRP rules instead of breaking them
its really hard to RP when people decide that their 10$ investment should be directed specifically to other players just to ruin their gaming experience
Metro 2033 however could work fine IMO
idiots who loves ming and derp around usally do that because they are bored and got nothing speical to do
if this gamemode is going to offer radioactive monsters like in the game its going to keep them busy
I vote for Metro 2033 because i played the game and it was fun based on the weapons and apocalypse style and much more other cool features
could be really fun anyway:)

We will probably need to get some new boards up for the new server. We will also need all of the servers set up before development starts. I'll talk to Somone about getting the boards and servers up soon.
-
Yes. Lets get discussions going. Figure out a plan we can all mutually agree on. Unlike hl2rp, we have nothing to base this off other then the game itself. We need to figure out what canon we use and what canon we ditch/manipulate to balance the game and make it enjoyable for even the random players. What factions will be set and who will be running them, and get them set up. How will the gameplay go? All this needs to be done before we even think about a server.

Set up a date possibly in team speak to talk about stuff?

Lots of people got mad about the teamsqueak meeting when we did the HL2RP relaunch. Forums are the way to go. Everyone should get the chance to make suggestions as long as they are ready to accept denial or changes.

Because not everyone can participate in a teamspeak discussion due to timezones etc.
And people got mad because actual important decisions were made on that chat without their input.
Talking on TS is nothing wrong with. As long as you keep it at just discussing and coming up with ideas. Don't make full blown decisions and you should be fine. ;)

this is what we were using the trello for and hell broke lose for doing it
-
Hm. Yes. I suppose it would be a good way to start things off while we wait for boards to be set up. No time is a good time sadly as there will always be people unable to attend at a certain time but the least we can do is allow anyone to come and give input. Ill clear this with waffoo.
Trello doesn't really work I've noticed. I'm considering putting CGRP information on the boards so people don't have to muck about some external site. The trello never gets used for its intentions anyway other than developer organization.
