Title is self-explanatory.
S2RP in itself I believe is a great choice when used properly, however with it being the default for all forms of combat unless otherwise authorized by Admins I feel like that's a bit too much, especially in larger scale attacks such as CvR or RvR all dependant on the conflict.

What I propose is that S2RP is left yet again for only Melee, hand to hand combat, or smaller scale engagements- (4 People included at most, may change to desire however).
Having a firefight be purely decided by luck when there's 1 group up against another with firearms seems like a shitty way to lose a fight, or rather a character. PvP In my opinion should be left up to skill, or effort rather than RNG that's decided by the rolling system.

So why not just make S2K the default for gunfights? It'd make firefights for armed individuals much simpler and removes the possibility of stalling. S2RP in itself takes ages to conduct, and with gunfights I don't believe that should be the case. S2K is what I focus upon, and I believe it's a PvP system that will be fmore favourable for most, and will be better than the current S2RP that there is for firefights. S2K makes firefights more simpler, shorter and denies any possibility of stalling which in turn makes it a most wonderful default for firefights that include guns. There is less luck involved in S2K than rolls, and it proves to be more fair than to rely on RNG.

Discuss below, that is all. Figured to give my input on the matter of combat as I stated, I do not agree with gunfights being defaulted to S2RP.

could even have a test done on expo server or smth to see what they want to pick for the future
 
TBC was removed probably because it was janky as hell and often times screwed people.
S2RP isn't enforced in gunplay, it's an option.
If someone doesnt want to do s2rp, it ends up being majority vote

TBC from what I last remember was removed due to majority of people disliking it, though It was unique and worked decent for gunplay.
S2RP going based off of the rules it's the default. What I propose is to remove it from default for gunplay, as if you attempt to perform an ambush or a quick assault then it'd still take time to "Vote" on what'd be used for the fight.
 
s2rp works very well in a 1v1 where each person takes thier turn after each action, however more than that and it really sucks, and even more than that timescale becomes a bitch to deal with when there's more people than 4, or even at 4 people s2rp sucks mega balls, this is mostly due to the fact that it is very difficult to decide what action you can do whilst also being fair, imo guns should almost always be s2k, as that makes the playing field more equal and more skill based.
 
S2K is fine, but god do not bring back TBC. S2RP for hand-to-hand makes sense.

Glad to hear. I merely listed TBC as an alternative, however Id mainly want to bring S2K to the default. May reword it later
 
I've edited the post. Removed TBC as I believe S2K will be more favourable for most players.
 
Robert is making an extended S2RP guide to make the experience more smooth across different GMs and players, but regardless, dying to a couple of bad rolls is always a bit cringe.

At least until the guide is out, seeing a more S2K based system with the exception of hand to hand makes the most sense.

I'd still like for S2RP to exist, but keep it to GM'd characters like Antlions or Headcrabs as the opponents. (I've done this twice and it's worked really well both times)

If we can't have TBC back (rest in peace my beloved), then i'd much prefer S2K to be the default way to go about fighting eachother​
 
Tbh, fuck s2k or some other shit you guys talking about, lets use the normal hl2 pvp style

Normal HL2 PvP is S2K... All you do is paste a /me and shoot. That's as close as you can get
 
This has been left for around 20 days. Bumping it up
