Title: Star Wars RP
Post by: Ragolution on 10-04-2011
Because there's a fucking TON of star wars content out there and I'm sure everyone here is nerdy enough to want to be a Jedi or a Smuggler or something.

We could use basically any map and say it's a certain section of a planet (but there's a few maps that are really nice).

But oh god there is so much content

I would do star wars roleplay but we have enough roleplay projects for one day. I suppose it still is a huge gap in the market and ive considered it several times, but if i hop from fallout to it. Then it would just die and ive already pumped enough time into that. We were going to do Star Wars roleplay some time ago, it's a shame we didn't take that opportunity. If Half Life 2 Dies then we can have it, but that's unlikely even though both are very similar in alot of respects - or at least on some of the planets.

I say do it and kill the other servers. Why the fuck are we stuck with this fetish for post apoc shit (Hl2, SRP, FO are all post apoc in some way or another) when STAR WARS is an option?

If you guys do this, make one of the first time server entry questions "Who shot first? Han Solo or Greedo" Because only the real SW fags will get it.

Hmm the major thing I think would need to be a rule was no Sith and Jedi
People will powergame the shit out of them and instead make people can only be force senstive and not Jedi Or Sith cept good RPers
Title: Re: Star Wars RP
Post by: Khorn on 12-04-2011
You should use simple civilians. Imperials and Rebels (If you go with that time period).

Droids for donators or some other reason.


As for factions.
-Rebels(Good)
-Imperials(Bad)
-Bounty Hunters.(Neutral Bad)
-Droids. (Inheritantly Neutral)
-Civilians.(Neutral)
-Criminals.(Inheritantly Bad)
-Planet Security Forces(Inheritantly Good)
-Certain Aliens Factions(Depends on Alien)
Title: Re: Star Wars RP
Post by: Ragolution on 12-04-2011
I think we could do this well since the Rebels are heavily outnumbered in terms of alignment.

We could limit Jedi to low-level Knights and say there's an academy somewhere.

I dunno, it needs consideration at this time.

The other obvious solution is to make everyone a jedi/sith and set this during the Kotor/Old Republic timeline. Jedi aren't invincible. In the movies they are portrayed as super powerful because the movies focus on the most powerful jedi/sith but not every jedi is Obi Wan Kenobi nor is every person who uses a blaster a storm trooper.

Jedi can use lasers rifles. They'd probably be extremely awesome.

That said, it obviously isn't feasible.

But it would be so very, very cool if it did happen. I remember reading about it in the Star Trek thread.
Title: Re: Star Wars RP
Post by: Recreas on 13-04-2011
It'd be better to put it either in the Clone Wars or when the rebellion started. Otherwilse you'd have to make a lot of models,maps and weapons and so yourself, but there's enough content based on the movies.
Title: Re: Star Wars RP
Post by: Ragolution on 13-04-2011
Feasibly Timelines:
Clone Wars
The Rebellion
Galactric Republic (Pre KOTOR)
The Great Hyperspace War/The New Sith Wars/The Great Galactic War

Possible settings:
Star Destroyer/Clone Starship/Calarmari Cruiser/Spaceship
Space Station
Polis Massa (I like this one!)
Planet/City/Town/Outpost or something
The one Tatooine Map I posted

Feasible Organizations:
Sith (Not in Cities! Exteremely Rare in Rebellion Era. Available in All Eras. Extremely common in Hyperspace Era.)
Jedi (Same!)
Rebels (All eras. No doubt there was rebels against the Galactic and Pre-Imperial Republic. Obviously more important in Rebellion Era.)
Imperial Stormtroopers (Conscripts and SOME Clones. Rebellion Era only.)
Galactic Troopers (Galactric Republic Era Only. Conscripts. Guards & Soldiers.)
Clone Troopers (Clone Era only. They're Army units only.)
Town Watch/Militia (Conscripts. All Eras. More common in Clone Wars Era)
Sith Troopers (War Eras ONLY. EXTREMELY common in those eras.)

yea I think Jedi and Sith are gonna be power gamed unless we were to make a chart for people powers and stuff like that
People will be like no man I total force choked you and you are dead. "No I killed you with my magical lightsaber that fly out when you started doing that and stabbed you through the heart."
Title: Re: Star Wars RP
Post by: Paintcheck on 13-04-2011
I think Jedi and Sith could easily NOT be powergamed if the admins weren't retarded. Yes they are powerful but not every Sith and every jedi exhibits the mastery of the ones seen in the films. Apprentices for example wouldn't be able to stand up to more than 1 or 2 people at a time, ambushes and sniping still work to kill them. Really it's not any less power gamey than someone with an Exo on STALKER or an Overwatch troop on HL2. Or just limit their numbers via application as if they were a faction. Having clear rules for the ability levels of each Jedi/Sith would work too. Yes it might take a little more effort to keep straight but I wouldn't say it was impossible.

Plus if you have Sith and Jedi on each side they'd naturally seek each other out for combat. Reputation would keep scrub smugglers from tangling with Master Sith (since ICly the abilities of a Jedi/Sith would be extremely well known and feared) while at the same time characters that are strong in conventional combat could take a weaker jedi without much more effort.

Hence why I mentioned low level knights/initiates in my earlier post, with one or two jedi masters.

tl;dr, I think that this has a low chance of coming out with HGN, in fact I DO NOT WANT THIS for Gmod, as much as I love SW, I do not want to see it in Gmod or HGN, as our current track record with "To be released" crushes people to the point of cynism, or when it does get released, it somehow gets ruined by some players/admins and then the powers that be try to micromanage and then it dies a horrible diarea death, then the admins of said server decide that its not worth working on anymore and then they jump onto some other server. (This happened in SRP and in FORP and in CRP)

And also with GMod players, I'm sure the whole idea would die out, because of bitching, power- and metagaming.

This. It doesn't matter who runs it, players are fucking morons who will try their goddammed hardest to ruin everything related to balance  and fairness. That's not just limited to HGN, despite what you think, Pink (and if you feel that everyone is so "beneath you" then why are you still here?).

Edited this about 19 times to get the point across properly.

This is why we don't get all the good things.
Now, back to the topic, metagaming, why ?  Jedi have some sort of senses, which let them feel the emotions of surrounding people (can be used to count maximum people in breached room).
Also, midichlorians are making Jedi's, not some retarded Chosen One's. More midichlorian in your cells = better the person is at the Force. I wonder if Bantha's would become Jedi or Sith.
Title: Re: Star Wars RP
Post by: Pink! on 14-04-2011
I do not think HGN is 'beneath me', at all, nor have I ever implied that.

It is flawed, though that much is obvious to anyone, and to be frank, a significant number of its population are immature and slightly deranged. (Again, obvious.) Yet despite that, everyone loves the community with passion, and I have had many, many great times roleplaying here, and hope I will continue to. The fact I see problems and try to fix them does not mean I consider the server 'beneath me', it merely means I love it enough to want to improve it.

In other words: HGN is a flawed diamond? And I love the community for it.

If we used the original films then there'd be no reason to have jedi/sith and that problem would be solved.

I think The Old Republic timeline is more interesting just because A LOT of people will want to be Jedi/Sith.

Well, you could always make people create their character, post it in the forum, have it reviewed then gived the password for said server. Of course, it would be tricky as it's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time it's tricky.

Yes, but there are also problems with this, if we are going to not use Jedi then it won't fit the canon much, seeing as Jedi where highly active in the Hyperspace War.
