How would you Define Stalker RP a Game, Mod or Gamemode?

I just spent the last hour debating this crap, i want your opinions. It can be a game, since it has it's own rules and what not, it doesn't use sandbox, which is "the gmod" game, rather it uses the gmod engine for Lua, it can be a mod because everything is modded (sounds, models, textures, interface, everything !

[InTOx]

I would define this as a gamemode, as it cant be a game or a mod, as your using GMOD for the game and the functions, creating a mod is GMOD lol GMOD IS A MOD and a GAME, so in overall the STALKER RP Mode has to be a "gamemode" as its using the gmod functions already included, and exploiting them

[Fluffy]

I would say it is a Gamemode, but more of a mod. if it didn't rely on Gmod alot then yes it would totally be a Mod. More of a Mod for RPs

[Silver Knight]

Well sadly i cannot make it so the server is split up from others, although, that would a good idea considering the amount of assholes out there who join our server ! lol

Back in Gmod9, we had Mods for or Gmod.

[InTOx]

thats in gmod 9

[Silver Knight]

Well look at all the gamemodes, they are just scripts, stalker rp is alot more, so i myself, call it a mod !

[Alex]

I'd call it an entire game becuase we can create our own stories and everything else that is in a full-fleged game.

[Zaki]

I say just gamemode, without the major game engine, the script would just be a pile of lua.

[Deathcon]

Its a gamemode. It has a lot of room for development.

[mrd]

Deathmatch Gamemode, without a doubt.

[Silver Knight]

Lmao...

[InTOx]

Yeah i agree with zaki, without the game engine the game would be a pile of code doing nothing XD.


And it was me and Silver Knight argueing about this issue. He was saying that he game designs, and kept arguing that hes making a game, when i was saying you need the engine etc, and your using the engines functions/features to create something to your taste and he wouldnt have it at all

[Moordact]

I voted gamemode , don't ask me why

[Alex]

Why?

[Sikth]

What Ducky said

[Silver Knight]

Then it's a mod, even if the votes are pointing to gamemode, BIASED PEOPLE ! Mwahahaha.

[Judas]

This is how I define it,  DEAD

You say you can add your own sounds, models, and skins, but you can do that in CS:S. It's a gamemode that runs on GMOD, A modification of a game, HL2.

[Silver Knight]

True, but what defines a game? if you change everything about a game.. then it should no longer by a gamemode but a mod, becuase everything which once was, is gone, so in still favour, i call it a mod, gamemodes was a feature garry made, for all those little gamemodes which use sandbox as a base, But Radiationscript, isn't like sandbox, it doesn't retain a single feature, thus it's a mod.

[mrd]

The game is the engine and bare bones.

A mod is a direct manipulation of the bare bones gamemode.

A gamemode is a game you created with the provided commands and abilities the mod gives you.

[Dom]

So its a gamemode?

[mrd]

Yes.
