My experience with post-uprising hl2rp is SCG attempt at revitalizing their city roleplay by setting their timeline right after Freeman's rebellion. Since staff was too lazy to implement any gameplay changes and players were still too scared to play outside the box despite begging for the...

Wouldn't change anything since I doubt rebels would magically get any clear objectives to fight the Combine and try liberating this timeline's city, they would still only be able to hoard scripts that they can't use for anything worthwhile.

I'd say you could just rewrite the lore that's awful without much issue (SRF, LFC) and simply remove anything that can't be readily be used for a SS or any other event (Pretty much anything that's not around city 24 & sector 10) outside of general knowledge. Much of it are player submissions...

That's so far removed from the possibilities of this server setting that I'm surprised you're even trying to make it part of the discussion. I'm telling you the issue is the rebels can't even hope to 'liberate' the 2 squares of city that is the map of WN;"preparing" them for post-Combine world...

Don't know how "training rebels" (whatever that means) would solve anything. Selling them any outlands content will be as useful as the rest of the off-server stuff has been because the core of the issue is that rebels have no endgame, or even a midgame. A rebel faction can only hoard equipment...

With LFC at least you can cut out the Arctic base, make it a local force and you would automatically fix it lore-wise, the SRF I personally hate because of its implications. In every Half Life 2 rp community I've been in there's always some weird kid that makes a Soviet Union player faction...

Reading that the whole blackout event was someone's improv idea to breathe some fresh air into the server and that CT doesn't even agree with it sums up my experience with WN this year. I thought that it was a pretty retarded line of events considering the OCIN Danger Level: ""impossible""...

The housing block from the main square should have been propped as public dormitories from the get go. Just throw a bunch of bunk beds there with a working kitchen. Anything that helps the basic citizen character eventually trickles down into activity for the rest of the factions.

Not the point. Yesterday the braindead interns on duty just walked off, refusing to do any roleplay and instead preferring to man the reception for the rest of the day, while today a doctor did the right thing and took my character in, cleaned his wounds and bandages while explaining that was...

Didn't have much time to play through the new map yet, but my first impressions are that the citizens narrative from the blackout took a step back and now we're back to the usual directionless gameplay. I took this as an opportunity to 'create roleplay for myself' and since I was almost killed...

C17 is a coastal city and Sofia is 200km away from the nearest coastline, trying to pin point it on any real life city is basically pointless.

Apparently HLA uses Varna's layout as a base for the cool c17 display animation in the loading cutscenes, so they decided that was reason enough to say City 17 was Varna, instead of the mish mash of every eastern European city that it is in reality. Still better than placing it on Kiev like...

The cities and their player administrators are probably the lore's most interesting selling point. My pet peeve with it is how much of it is written about rebel factions which are basically continental powers and are clearly written by their authors with this misconception that resistance in...

It's kinda tragic that this kind of grounded resistance org with a localized character would be passed over in favor of the soulless, unrealistic super rebel faction that can somehow run a base and keep a war fleet in the middle of the Arctic and have operations all the way out in Geneva...

Damn Im so glad merlin won at the end!

How is that not realistic, you're basically moving workers around to the next neighborhood for a job, it's literally an everyday commute

oh my...
