Half Life 2 Roleplay - PreRelease Information

[Sexy Frog]

Keep the CCA models the same for the most part like they were before, there is already a lot of stuff people need to DL when they join for the first time, so why add more? If anything, more citizen models should be added, so we don't have a bunch of male_07's running around. In the end, don't add on unneeded stuff.

I actually like the skin separation that's being brought in here, but more citizen models is kinda meh. If you think about it, if we did get more citizen models, they'd probably just be male_07 but with different clothes. Same shit.

 I want new faces pretty faces lol

I'd rather the OfC selection instead of the TrO selection. Unless they switch it to the one i mentioned earlier

What will happen if the characters won't transfer? I would assume take a picture of the list of characters re issuing all of them as much as a pain that would be.

[ur mom bob]

I don't think re issuing cca characters would be an issue. Citizens, don't think they would be an issue either unless they had a weapon or something. Just another problem is their attributes or w.e they are called, but still I don't think to many people would bitch about that.

Why so focused on "omg unique model 4 every cca rank"

Firstly, it's going to look really silly, non-uniform, and non-coherent when there's five officers online, each with a different model
Lastly, there are just... so many more important things that could be figured out instead. I've heard a lot of people mention more features for citizens/resistance. I think that would be a great path to begin walking down.

There's plenty of stuff in the new version of the map that I just released which should cater for most types of resistance and citizen RP. What other features would you suggest?

[alaskan thunderfuck]

yeah we really don't need any more models then we had. the reason HL2RP did so good, at least a good part was you could join within 5 minutes. models don't add to roleplay at all and take up a fuckton of space

That's a really good start, and I do mean that. From reading the changelog you posted, it looks like citizen/rebel characters will have a lot of new areas to interact in.

With regard to other features... I have some ideas and general concepts to toss around, but to be honest I'm feeling pretty lazy about typing them up formally on here. Would you like to discuss them on steam, skype, or somewhere else?

Custom models are pretty dumb. It should just be RCT to 01 are all the same and OfC, DvL, SeC and CmD have their own set of models. That's how it used to be. Not only that but most of the custom models that are available are pretty ugly.

Base clockwork is being talked about as having the Metropolice v5 anyway. Just utilizing it, plus with the workshop it makes it simple. Subscribe and go.

I don't get why TrO would have a different model from EU. They're the exact same rank pretty much just with different priorities.

They actually are different.

Gordon Freeman Model - Please no, it's just silly and makes people DL more stuff.

It's not required to download, it's just on the server.

As for citizens? I'm looking into a few things.

I think the model chosen for the Officer looks disgusting and the GRID model extremely out of place (I know the top hat won't be there). The idea of custom models sounded good but after looking through the spreadsheet the CCA as a whole would look no where near as uniform as it used to. I don't care too much for appearances and little symbols on the sides or chest of units would be fine but this pack as a whole looks too diverse and colorful.

That's my two cents, I'll still play with or without the new model pack.

It actually looks decent with the overall look. As for GRID, it may change once its up and running, same with the officer model.

These models were actually implemented a while ago, just never had the chance due to GM13. As for resistance and citizens? It's being worked on as I've said.

I'm sorry if this is offensive or whatever, but with all those models selected, if they all went patrolling together it would look like a gay rights parade.

You never know, the City 45 CCA could secretely be a gay rights activist group....

You know honestly this.

CCA is supposed to be uniform and clean.

I can understand the CCA having two custom skins, but really? In HL2 you only saw one outfit, and the reason for that is that they're all faceless unrecognizable creatures that you don't know if they're fully human or machine, not to mention it makes the higher ranks stick out more which would lead people to avoid them/assassinate them.
