elitism will be much worse in squads when they start competing with each other on who is better etc

[aeiou]

how will the elitism between squads differ from divisions, exactly? you just called squads a rename of divisions then said the elitism would be bad

it wont differ it will be the same so why do this at all? it doesn't help or change anything its just confusing for people who aren't used to the system and thats not rly gonna help when this time we're directly competing against another hl2rp server to regain players

well at the end of the day i see having 4 divisions that can specialise in stuff over 2 squads that do everything and having no difference between each other to be a better long-term plan

i would prefer to have divisions, that is what id prefer and by the sounds of it, others would prefer too

[aeiou]

how is spreading them across divisions gonna help any if you have a total of 7 unit members? most of them are going to want to go into a specialised division, lessening the amount of units that actively patrol. then there's the fact that most division leaders tend to protect their members from patrols when they're not patrolling units - but feel free to create a clusterfuck of divisions with 4 members each

with that said i see no reason for this being a suggestion to keep active since everyone wants to keep their precious little divisions anyway, so have fun with the revive (not actually sarcasm, i hope you have fun)

[Teitoku Ippan]

well sorry you are upset because we dont agree with your idea but as you can see, it looks like quite a few people would prefer to have divisions rather than squads, plus divisions would be better in the long-term too

[aeiou]

2 people replied, and i'm not upset - it was simply a suggestion that i sent to waffle is all! he liked it and asked me to post it on here

I also agree with ota and cca not under the same command. However everything else. No. This system would require more activity from everyone and i dont know about you but i dont exactly have all the time in the world anymore and neither do a number of our players.

With divisions we still have multiple leaders people aren't assigned to so there's more coverage. It's also more dynamic and had worked well in the past. While I'm open to new ideas, this one raises to many concerns.

-EDIT-

BTW I did not lock this. Whoever, did, please post a reason.

i locked it

Sad face, not sure why you lock it. Ummm, ima post anyways. I like the idea. Its simple as fuck, and thats kind of what we need right now. Sure later down if the server keeps its players and starts to grow we can grow the MPF into a more elaborate force, adding 'devisions' etc. But for a reset and new start, this is a pretty straight forward way.

imo no need to lock the thread as its still relevant until the HL2RP devs/owner say other wise. Every post is valued no mater if the op think it is or not.

I unlocked this again. This is an idea that is worth discussing and alex doesn't get to decide whether or not it gets locked.

alex doesn't get to decide whether or not it gets locked.

ty some ppl have a real complex of just removing/locking/completely separating them selves from things they dnt like instead of talkin about it.....

i forgot what i was gonna post before i was rudely locked away so our opinions cannot be shared however the main reason behind this massive change that no one will be used too is that units dont patrol then just make them patrol n if the dvls are protecting them punish the dvls

this is gonna be so confusing for any hc unit trying to work out which unit can do what if everyones name is the same the radio is just gonna be WHICH UNITS CAN DO THE MEDICAL? instead of just taking 1 unit from each division you need for a certain task which has worked completely perfectly for the past 2 years idk why we'd make this system that adds more problems then it fixes

pretty sure alex gets to decide whether or not to lock his own thread
