We had 7 officers on, and one gun amongst us, rebels officially have more guns than us, and bigger guns than us, this is retarded. Give us back our guns, our faction does not work without guns, thanks for coming to my TED talk.
 
Normally I would be more sympathetic but the state of the Civil Protection faction means I'd rather avoid some of the members having weapons until they're ready.

Maybe we should have trained the inexperienced players instead of saying "sink or swim" which is what I was told when I logged on. Literally anything is better than this system.
 
Hah, didn't even take 6 hours for the system to start pissing CP members off. What a massive joke.

The rank reform system was something that was desperately needed. It gave zero progression to CPs. There was little to no accountability from Rank Leads. There was nobody for newer CPs to look up to because sometimes a RL would be unavailable. Though I am fine with giving 00s/All ranks a firearm of some kind. Heck they should have the pistol.

The earlier rank was only 1. Unit 2. Ranklead

No other ranks. Not even recruit.

Did the rebels blow you away? No?
That's interesting- I've seen people getting blown away every day repeatedly for stupid asaine reasons. I've also seen loyalists being maimed and perminantly caused to never walk again- but not by Resistance fighters no no. Universally this seems to be the case with the combine.

I've played on many servers where units dont have access to guns, they get along just fine.

So why do you need a gun? You personally might not had been a bad leaf in all of this but fuck man, anyone could've seen this one coming.

Yes, the Combine is an oppressive Regime so yes we would be cruel and oppress them, and probably not care that much about collateral damage. Got a problem with how the Combine handles things? Sucks to be you, you don't get a say.

In absolutely no universe would the Combine make its police force weaker in combat than people with pipe guns but here we are, stores getting burned down, and rebels firing SMGs on the surface, and literally nothing we can do to respond.
 
Sterilized credits is not an extensive or quick enough system to depend upon a significant portion of the force to rank up before they’re effective in any way. I’d agree with allowing firearms at all ranks, if not an undo of the rank system entirely.

Having a flat structure rather than codifying experience levels formally was preferable and allowed for natural IC leaders to rise regardless of time in the faction. Clarity is certainly needed on some OOC things, but I do not think the issue was IC leadership holes over basic unit functions.
 
Maybe let everyone have pistols but don't let 00s patrol alone while you start allowing 25+ patrol without a partner. Just an idea.

While I don't agree with the current rank system (or the previous one), I find this to be a good compromise. Have the new/inexperienced rank not patrol alone. Put someone in their patrols that is a rank that is meant to show competency.
 
Technically the Civil-Protection are still in power even with rebels starting to arm up. The rebels do not have the luxury of (for the purpose of the server) infinite transhuman soldiers.
 
Personally I’d be fine with the ranking reform if it weren’t for the fact that there is often times only 4-5 units online at any given time. As well, they are mostly going to be 00s. So that means if 4-5 units are unarmed what stops a gang of 7-10 citizens ganging up on the units and curbing them and forcing their way into the nexus other then “No no simply just wouldn’t happen Ic” or OTA just instantly getting on.

I just think if there were more active players, or more 25a then I’d be fine and not have any real problem with this.
 
this system is good the problem is its made for a situation where there is an average of 10 cps on (which there never is)
