Half-Life:Two Roleplay Terminology

This is a small and short guide on how stuff is done on Hl2RP, I will go over the commands and such of the server and when it is appropriate to use them.


/me's

First thing I am going to get into is the most important part of the server and by far the most needed to know, it is called /me.

"/me" is used to perform a designated action within the specific area with or without another person with you. You can simply be by yourself and use it for some passive roleplay which would be you saying for example (/me picks up the broom and moves it back and forward on the still surface) that is another good example of /me and how it is used.

Now, this however can also be used when Roleplaying with other citizens. I.E: /me lifts out a hand and attempts to shake the other citizens hand with respect. They would then reply with something of the essence of /me does not return the shake, or they would be nice and return it.

"/me" is basically an action command and is used for action of what you character does.

Example:
* Purple Looks at the citizens as they enter the Nexus with ties put to their wrists.



Fear RP & Pain RP

Okay this is another very important aspect of the server, It puts a sort of realism that the server needs to be great.

Fear RP

FearRP is for example is the fact that you are scared of stuff IC. You can be scared of anything you see fit of your character; a good one would be the CCA especially the SeC. This FearRP works as if you see him you would be stuttering and using /me's that represent your scared.

Example:

*The SeC leaves the Nexus to enter general plaza.(This would probably not happen but it is for the example)
* Purple Walks up to the SeC and asks him a question.
Citizen: S-S-Sir, I-I am Lo-Looking to have a Mee-Meeting with you and I-I require your Per-Per-Mission.
CCA.C18.SeC.34242: Citizen, You are not worth my time... NOW LEAVE!
* Purple Jumps back in a jolt of horror and urinates in his paints a little from the scare, not noticeable of course.
Citizen: Ye-YES Sir. I-I-I will not bother you-you again.
* The SeC continues on with his duties to the CWU building.

FearRP is basically you being scared of stuff IC. This could also mean someone putting a gun to your face, you would most likely not run if it was real life so don't run on the server, if you do choose to run I would make some good RP out of it.

PainRP

This is another thing that explains itself, if you are shot or punched RP it with some sort of pain. Obviously you would not run away after being shot in the leg without Kevlar on.

Example of PainRP:

*A rebel faction approaches me as I am walking around in the S6 Sector.
*They get closer and are appearing to have blunt objects in their hands and have angry faces.
Citizen: Uhmm, what are you guys doing.
Rebel: I am going to get you for what you did to my friend!
Citizen: Your friend deserved it!
Rebel: We will see about that!
*The rebel attempts to hit the citizen in the head with his crowbar.
* Purple gets hit in the head pretty hard falling into the wall and hitting the trashcans to the ground.
Citizen: Oh gosh! Oh my god! I am bleeding
Citizen Help me!
* The citizen lies there in dire pain as his head is half cut open and he is all alone
Rebel: Seeya punk!
* The rebels retreat into the dark area of S6 and are not seen.


This is RP generated around your character being hurt in any way or form.



/y's


Okay, so /y's are used for yelling actions IC. Yelling IC can get you an audio violation if you’re a citizen but on CCA, OTA, & CA It will come in handy. /y's are mostly used by CCA to tell you to move or if they are mad and in some cases the CA will use it for speeches publicly.

Examples:
CCA.C45.GRID-01.934: /y Citizen! MOVE NOW!
--------
City Administrator: /y Citizens! We are catered for this meeting regarding recent activity in UCH that disturbs me.

Of course in server the distance is pretty far distance your yelling and it shows a bit of an echo if you listen closely. This is good if you are trying to send a message to others:)







/it's

Okay what is next is /it's, these are used when a whole action around your general area is made. This could be an action of another item or background reference.

However this is not used that often as it should be, I myself have created some well off roleplay with /it's.

Examples could be /it A vase falls off the yellow shelf and shatters all over the tile floor.
This is a good way to promote RP to everyone in the area
Basically /it’s are used for actions around you, this is more the less stuff like tables and shelf and non-human items although you can do human actions with these.



Roleplay General

I understand when people come to the server for their first time and have absolutely not a clue what to do, I was the same way some years ago and so was everyone else. This is going to show you some of the basics of the server and what’s on it.

Factions

Okay, Catalyst-Gaming has many factions for their Outlands and City servers, many of them being hard to get and very frustrating when attempting to apply for them. I am going to give a basic overview of them and what they are.

Citizens: This is the MOST basic faction on the server, this is what you are or would be upon firstly coming to our servers. This is a great stage to develop your RP skills and have some really good fun.

Combine Civil Authority (CCA): The CCA are as I would say the Law enforcers of the server. These guys patrol the streets, they detain others for wrongful acts and have a chain command that they all have to follow. They are mean and grumpy and do not like citizens what so ever, when you come in contact do not start a conversation with them about random crap like there weekend. There ranks are RCT>04>03>02>01>OfC>EpU/AmU>DvL>CmD>SeC. When you see them you better show some fear. They are usually armed with a stunstick and a variety of weapons depending on their level. You will not see these units in Outlands.
Overwatch Transhuman Arm (OTA): The OTA are what I like to call the super humans, they are smart and brainwashed to the fullest of extent. The only time you will see the OTA is if you see terror arising or the CA is making a public speech. They are armed with Ar2 Pulse Rifles and are not afraid to use them. If you happen to see the OTA I would not screw with them.


City Administrator (CA):
The CA is like a mayor of a town. The CA is a person who handles the citizen population and encourages them with his/her speeches and gives them motivation with seeing him/her. The CA is always guarded by OTA troops and rarely makes appearances publicly. The CA is a high priority and if messed with you will most likely be killed by his/her OTA.

Vortiguants: Vortiguants are a zen life form that appeared during the portal storms, most of them where captured and some escaped from captivity or just escaped in the beginning. There are Vortiguants on Outlands and on City servers. There are two types of vorts, there are CONSCRIPTS and escaped vorts. Conscripts are the one that have been detained while the other odd bunches are not slaved.

Note: The factions listed above are the basic factions of the server and some of the widely known.



Video on how to RP:

Note: These videos where sent to me and I take no credit for the criteria in them. Many players can watch these and get a basic visual idea of how to do the RP.

How to RP for dummy's:

Please note this is a guide that can be edited anytime and also repays with more stuff to add would be nice. I am human and cannot think of everything.

Suggestions / Milestones and Achievements section
« on: December 31, 2011, 11:37:46 AM »
I have seen some people some make some pretty impressive goals or notabilitys and I think there should be an area on the forums for users to show off some of the things they accomplished in life or on the servers. I believe their would be some real nice things people could post because there is always stuff they could accomplish or win.  I was thinking the section should be placed in the general discussion and be called "Milestones and Achievements" I hope the idea is liked and looked into because I feel this area will be highly used.

Bug Reports / Map Glitches via new update
« on: December 27, 2011, 01:20:36 AM »
This is the first time of me requesting help on a bug report. I usually know how to fix them myself but I always have trouble with this sort of map bug. As you can see in the pictures below the map is reproducing a black image that is windowing my view. It is quite annyoing and ruins RP for myself. Could someone look into this? What should I do?

Subject: Days Objectives Report


<::|| Today I was patrolling my regular patrol route and saw the usual things. Around lunch time I saw a citizen building a shop inside the Diordna and I went to investigate knowing there are some restricted data sets in there. Upon looking in there the citizen was quiet and not knowing what the room holds. I approached the citizen and simply told him to leave the nestle and find a new place of work, he seemed as if he was going to come across it seeing he was playing with his register. I left the shop and allowed him to leave before I moved his furniture out of the room and into the street for him to move. I went back on duty and reported the incident in. After taking some time to patrol I went inside and took the time to call in a 10-100 and took the time to have a rest. There were some other officers inside taking a break and drinking some Breen water, at the time it seemed like a nice refresher. I picked myself up a can of fresh Breen water and set at the cafeteria table and listened to their conversations on their recent arrest of a citizen that was in restricted zone. They continued on about how another DvL initiated a search and how they went in the area to raid it, they eventually found the subject. I was surprised that the anti-citizen proved to get around the units and escape back into the city, after hearing they had the place clamped well. After finishing my Breen water I went down to the training area to find myself in a training procedure led by the CmD. I was told to join in and that it was a weapons training on how to better use your firearm. This proved handy and I enjoyed it deeply. Followed by the weapon training was a Hand-to-Hand combat training also led by the CmD and an APEX OfC. We learned more in-depth of how to use out fighting skills in the field and when they will come in handy. During the fighting the CmD hit the OfC into a combine control panel and broke the screen along with denting the panel in good. The OfC was heavily wounded and was brought into the Med-Bay for surgery. I don’t know what happened to him from there. I was informed then to go get my tool set together and to go fix the panel as soon as possible. I fixed it in a timely manner and updated it to the current version ware. From there I went to take a nap.||::>

Civil Authority Applications / Ryan Peters's Civil Authority Application
« on: December 09, 2011, 03:43:52 PM »
Ryan Peters's Civil Authority Application

OOC Name: oG]Purple|S|

IC Character Name: Ryan Peters

1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority and what lead your character to do so.
My character was born in New York, every day he saw self-acts of crime & hatred spread across the city. He was always was the type to want to help others if they are in need or worry, especially the innocent. When growing up he saw one of his best friends killed by an armed gunman, ever since then he has been on the note of wanting to stop violence and promote safety. Another big thing that happened to my character was when he was in City 18 and he saw an innocent civilian get beat to death for an unknown cause, this really made him mad and furious inside and he knew it would be best to join the cause and help stop that behavior.  He is a strong believer in discipline and trying to make a difference. Every day while in City 45 he carries his request device handy, he uses it many times a day and mostly reports Non-Union items being found or citizens running into restricted sectors, when he joins the CCA the citizens will not have to worry to use that request device too often because he will be out there making sure everything is okay and good.  He does not only want to join the CCA to clean the Anti-Civil activity off the city streets, but he wants to join because he sees that they are there for the better good and quality of life. He wants to join for the benefits the Union has to offer, whether it is good meals or nice living quarters. He feels the need to help City 45 in any way possible and he cannot think of any better way to do so than applying for the Combine Civil Authority. My character believes the combine are saviors to the earth. The combine may have wiped most of the earth’s population down, but my character thinks it is for the better good. He is in strong disbelief of what the resistances are doing; and he believes the combine are there for the good and the resistance are there to make things worse. My character believes highly in what the combine are doing and joining them will help give back to what they did for me and the great life they have given me in City 45.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
My character is a Perfectionist, one who wants the best results from his duties.  He is Trustworthy, he is someone you could go give information and would not give it out. He is Mature; he always acts on his best behavior and likes to set examples. He is very ambitious and has big dreams for his future.

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.
I expect the Combine Civil Authority to bring me the best of RP. Being a CCA unit is not all fun and games and takes a high level of maturity and skill to work with it which is right up my alley. I expect CCA faction on this server to be 110% better than others because of all the effort I see that is put into it, and to experience it for yourself must be mesmerizing to any good Role Player. I expect it to be tough on my character but nothing he cannot handle. I expect there to be great RP moments that you will remember for a lifetime, especially ones that last for days. I expect there to be moments where the high command get mad at a unit and give him a blackmark or two. I expect a better life for my character. I expect that my character will clean up the anti-civil behavior and get good rewards for keeping the peace. I expect to meet units who are expressing all kinds of emotions while in the Nexus or even outside. I love to promote diversity, I want to see and I expect that all units will act different when among their peers. I expect there to be fun events for my character to partake in, the events that are used on CG are always fun and prove to be worthy of waiting for.

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.
Ryan Peters was born in 1974 in New York. He was a normal boy trying to grow up in a city full of scum and crime. There was always something going on in the city whether it be a killing or a robbery, Ryan took to seeing this as he was growing up.  His father was a part of the NYPD making ends meet, his father was investigating a homicide in the lower Manhattan projects when he was struck by a car that was fleeing from the scene of the crime. Upon Ryan finding out he was torn apart and at the time he was around the age of 17 and decided it would be best for him to get a job. The only jobs available where in the construction field that he could get with having a good pay. He took a job up in Brooklyn that had a good pay and reasonable benefits. About 10 years later he was out of the house and still in the construction business, now owning his own company using the skills he got from his later jobs. 8 years later he was at a site with his crew of 10, they were building homes for the needy in a development near the Hudson River. There were a couple tremors that morning followed by rumbling but nothing that would be noticed if busy. Later on in his day he noticed a strange gleaming light in the sky and also heard it on the news and how it was showing up everywhere around the world. About 1 hour later the gleaming lights started getting brighter and started to lower closer to the earth, he could head loud noises and wondered what the hell was going on, the lights where flickering and eventually went out. That was the time the Portal Storms arrived, Ryan ran with everyone else including his crew to a local city where police where helping others get to safety. Sometime later the 7 hour war began and the Combine arrived taking citizens to locations, they were not told where they were being taken to. Ryan arrived in a city the Combines called "City 18" The units there where mean and the food was horrible, Ryan did not like the atmosphere at all. About 5 months into his time there he was put on a list to be transferred to another city that some people where calling "City 45" Upon his long arrival by train he was forced into an apartment and forced to watch the city administrator give a speech. After staying in the city for a short period of time he liked the atmosphere that it possessed and started getting situated in. Ryan made a couple friends and also having the thoughts of helping the Combine better themselves. Ryan began cleaning the streets by picking up trash and cans that he saw and through them away in the designated zone. Ryan got to the point where he had over 19 Loyalist points. Ryan made up his mind that he was going to apply for the Combine Civil Authority and help them keep peace and support his Benefactors.
