General Discussion / Pimp My Gun
« on: September 10, 2014, 07:26:27 PM »
We create cool guns in this thread, it's not to be serious unless you want to be, so 7 scopes on top of each other, on top of a knife, is a-okay.

Suggestions / Replacement for HL2RP - Prison RP
« on: July 28, 2014, 09:11:38 PM »
Ok so I don't feel like making an extremely long post, but this idea is something I came up with.  I'm sure almost everyone that will read this has seen the Shawshank Redemption.  I thought of a serious RP based on Clockwork or Nutscript that is placed in a Prison.  Instead of making a long post, I'm going to post the basics in a list form:

  • Two "factions", Guards and Prisoners
  • Guards would have an indepth rank system with progressions and equipment upgrades, without the training, just based on IC experience
  • - Example: Corrections Officer / CO. = Baton, Handcuffs... Sergeant / Sgt. = Baton, Handcuffs, Taser...  Lieutenant / Lt. = Baton, Handcuffs, Taser, Standard Issue 9MM Pistol... Captain / Cpt. = Baton, Handcuffs, Taser, Standard Issue 9MM Pistol, Advanced Helmet with Visor... Major / Maj. = Baton, Handcuffs, Taser, Standard Issue 9MM Pistol, Advanced Helmet with Visor, Standard Issue 12 Gauge Pump Shotgun...
  • - After them would be Warden, Director, Mayor, these would be figure heads, (Think of City Administrators on HL2RP but with more jurisdiction.)
  • Prisoners, on the other hand are just inmates trying to survive.
  • Weapons would likely be crafted and or smuggled in.  (Think applications.)
  • Cigarettes as a form of currency among Prisoners.
  • The twist with this whole thing, because while Prisoners usually don't die in real life unless they're put on death row, is the Guards have an extreme amount of power and could likely get away with killing a Prisoner if they are alone together, or even vice versa if the Prisoner has a weapon.
  • There would be a lunch time / dinner time. (Think rations.)
  • There could also be a lockdown time if called for by Captain+

That's basically everything that I can think of for now.  I made correlations to HL2RP frequently because it would be so similar, just better in my opinion.  With this, the canon isn't disputable, this is current time.  The Guards would be out almost all the time, no "hide in the Nexus bullshit".   Anything planned by the Prisoners riot-wise would have to be kept low key like it should be, no "run into D6 and yell rebellious bullshit".  Everyone would usually be in the same area.  There is a ton of passive roleplaying potential on the right map: basketball, weight lifting, showering, billiards, watching T.V., etc.

Well, that's it for now, I may update it later, please comment on what you think.

General Discussion / Post Your Apocalyptic Setup
« on: July 18, 2014, 10:19:12 PM »
Go to http://innawoods.net/ and make a realistic depiction of what you would have on you after an apocalypse.  By realistic, I mean stuff you have in your house currently.  In this apocalypse scenario, there are no zombies, but there is no government.  The only threats are other people and mother nature.

Spoiler for Hiden:


The crossbow I'm holding is a mini 80 pound draw-weight pistol, perfect for hunting small game in my opinion.  I would also have a longbow slung over my back.  Hot, humid, urban, lots of greenery.

Edit: Also post climate/biomes around area so others know.

Post your reactions to the following video in spoilers and don't read any other posts until you've posted, I'm curious to hear honest opinions.

Spoiler for Hiden:
I was expecting the worse, but then at the car bit where its flipping I just lost my shit and laughed.  I'm not sure why, but it was just so over dramatic it was like an action movie.  I almost expected an explosion in the background.  I've shown several people, some thought it was funny, some thought I was sick. *shrug*

In Character / A note from the Firelight Outpost.
« on: April 02, 2014, 03:00:58 PM »
This note could be found on various walls in the sewers and tunnels.


The Firelight Outpost is a peaceful location where weapons and hostility is frowned upon. 
It is open to the public and can be used to work out problems with someone peacefully. 
The Firelight Outpost can be found near the humming of fans and the sight of smoke in the sewers.

Applications / Thomas Richardson Authorization Application
« on: March 28, 2014, 10:17:20 PM »
Player Section

Steam Name: Tyrex
How long have you been roleplaying? (can be any game): 5-6 years.
How long have you been playing Garry's Mod serious roleplay?: 3-4 years.

Character Section

Authorization(s): - A box of matches
                               - The ability to create a simple campfire (and that's it, no pyromaniac stuff involved)

Name: Thomas Richardson
Age: 38
Gender: Male
Affiliation: Neutral

Write a detailed in-canon back-story how your character obtained these authorizations.
One day while Thomas was telling his jokes out in the cold area of District 2, he needed something to draw more people in, something, warm.  He stumbled around the entirety of District 2, searching thick and thin through the buildings and streets.  He stumbled across this one house and shuffled through the drawers, he stuck his hand in and felt around and to his surprise found a new box of stick matches.  He continues searching District 2 and rummaged through trash upon trash to find anything flammable; he found numerous pieces of cardboard, wood scraps, and plastic, while not the safest thing to burn, worked.

What will these authorizations give your character in regards to perks or defects?
+ Ability to create basic campfires to draw in attention and create a warm area.
- May draw unwanted attraction and is probably against Union law.

What do you plan to do with these perks/defects?
Make campfires to draw people into spots and create passive RP locations.

Will anyone else need these auths? (If so, list OOC and IC name(s))
Nope.

Extra Notes (optional):

ASSESSMENT #1 - IC situation: You have just been tasked with escorting a VIP (in this case, a Civil Administrator) from the Nexus to the center of the plaza for a speech. It is expected that an attempt will be made on the VIP's life today at an unknown time. A citizen begins to follow your escort group. You suspect that they belong to a rebel group who intend to kill the VIP. How do you approach the situation? Be creative.
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1 watches around as the group walks, careful of his surroundings.
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1 spots a citizen.
OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1: <:: Citizen is following our rear.
OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX2: <:: Copy.
OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1: <:: Waiting before engaging.
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1 continues walking with the squad.
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1 turns his head once more, spotting the citizen, "<:: Citizen still in pursuit, engaging."
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1 raises his AR2 Pulse Rifle, before aiming towards the citizen.
** The citizen runs into a sprint.
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1 pulls the trigger on his Pulse Rifle, firing a few bursts of rounds down range towards the citizen.
** The citizen avoids most of the bullets, one of them hitting his foot.
** The citizen limps towards safety before mumbling to himself, "One day..."
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1 stops firing, "<:: Ceasing fire, let's move."
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX2 nods, "<:: Copy, continuing escort."
** The squad arrives towards the destination.
** OTA.VANGUARD.XXXX1 holds his Pulse Rifle in front of him, sweeping the crowd with his eyes, careful of any threats.

ASSESSMENT #2 - OOC situation: The following scenario has taken place: a player who is in command of a criminal character in possession of hidden contraband was in the process of being handcuffed before they suddenly ran away without any valid RP. A member of the administration team locates and brings the offending player back to where they started. The player does not seem to understand the rules of the server. They are frozen in place while the administrator is sent to deal with an urgent matter. Before the administrator leaves, you are asked to explain to the player about what they did wrong. How do you proceed?
I would introduce myself, suggest him to read the rules and explain to him what he did wrong.  I would mostly explain FailRP, FailRP being running from a situation without actually role playing it, or role playing it in an unrealistic scenario.  I would tell him that while being detained they cannot simply run without role playing it, because it is simply unfair to the other player and ruins the fun of role playing.  If they refuse to learn I would request an admin.  If they try to learn I would role play with them and try to teach them better.

Accepted / Celena Mona's Metropolice Force Application
« on: March 02, 2014, 12:03:43 AM »
Celena Mona's Metropolice Force Application

OOC Name: Tyrex

IC Character Name: Celena Mona

1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Metropolice Force and what lead your character to do so.
Celena wishes to join the CCA/MPF for a few reasons.  She shows a strong interest in the NOVA branch.  This is because her parents had been involved with medical fields already.

She also feels obligated to join the CCA/MPF because she had her life saved by them.  My character had a serious case of pnuemonia and she was operated on by a NOVA unit who then, saved her life.

She thinks that what the CCA/MPF and the Union is doing is right.  Celena wants to assist them in their duties because they assisted her's.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
Extremely trustworthy, with a high amount of integrity and respect.  She will do what she has to do if she believes it is right.

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.
I am expecting the Combine Civil Authority/MPF (idk)  to benefit my character in a medical and social aspect.  During my time at CG, I still have not had a CCA/MPF unit and would like to experience it at least once.

I consider myself to be a great RPer and plan to provide quality RP and entertainment through myself and my unit.  Whether it be to citizens or fellow units alike, I will try my hardest to ensure there is a form of strong RP going on.


4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words.
My character, Celena Mona was born in Greece, where her father and mother were quite poor.  Her mother was a veterinarian which made barely enough money to live by on.  Her father, on the other hand, was a volunteer doctor, who instead of making a lot of money, made nothing.  Her father is who gave her the strong traits of giving and not expecting anything in return, however, her mother taught her to do what others do for you.  Through her early years she was forced to live by with little resources which gave her the skills to always try to work with what she has with her.

She went through middle and high school and graduated with basic skills and knowledge at that kind of a level and then went to a local college to study arts.  She realized, just as she finished her degree, that she actually wasn't that very interested in arts anymore.  She idled around, finding whatever jobs she could, usually with her father or mother, as she did not know exactly what she wanted to do. Soon after, the 7 hour war happened while she was held up in her house.  She wasn't sure what to think of it, nonetheless, what to do about it.  She had followed what the Union had told her to do, preferring not to be killed.  Because of this, she was separated from her family and relocated to a city.  This city was called City 18.

As Celena became older in life, she was transferred from Greece to Ukraine, specifically City 18.  She realized just being a normal citizen wasn't right for her and she quite liked what the Union and the MPF stood for.  She had liked the gear they wore and the tasks they were able to perform;  she had wanted to be strong, just like them.  While in City 18 she suffered from a serious case of pneumonia, where she recieved aid from the local Metropolice Force.  She felt like she owed her life to the Union and as she reflected back on her parents and their history of medical services, she was particularly interested in the NOVA branch of the MPF.

5) Have you ever had a MPF character here at Catalyst Gaming?  If so, explain why it was removed.
Nope.

Suggestions / Citizen and CWU RP Suggestions
« on: January 04, 2014, 05:41:45 PM »
The reason I didn't particularly enjoy City and played mostly on Outlands was the RP quality of the average-Joe and this may be why City was how it was. 

Citizens - Usually nothing to do, if you were to go a rebellious citizen into a rebel-esque character, then you can roleplay going against the UU and it's somewhat interesting.  If you were to go a neutral citizen and honestly not care about the UU, I don't know what to tell you, why even bother playing.  If you were to go a loyal citizen you can join the CWU or you can become a CP unit and I'm not going to talk about the CCA because that is out of my realm of knowledge, so this leads into my next point.

CWU - I used to be in the CWU and it wasn't fun, that was just it.  At least as a normal loyal citizen I could sit on a bench and passive RP even if it was boring; I didn't have to work my ass off to sell donuts and milk.  If CWU does become the primary source of medical services, it could take a turn for the better, but when I played it, man was it a pain.
