how has this happened btw lol there are literally infinite supply vendors in the dam base and villa for cops because rebels were going to be getting lots of ammo + weaponsIt is true that the Combine should lose. But this event is supposed to be seven weeks long, and the Combine are already out of supplies and getting PKed 5 times more than rebels. This is day ONE.
because its day 1 and people are still buildingWhy are the combine so neutered? This is taking place, what, a few days after the Dark Fusion reactor is destroyed? All of a sudden, all supply lines are cut? Where are the APCs? Where are the dropships, and the patrols of OTA?
they're not they have literal vendors that have infinite stuff in themIt makes zero story sense that the Combine players are as bone dry on equipment as they are right now
we've got a whole month to play with, this is one day out of that month, if we deploy OTA every day, OTA that can't be PKed, while the rebels can - we'll be out of living players in a few days.I get that you want some semblance of “balance”, but there isn’t any right now. The rebels are consistently able to shit on patches of barely-armed conscripts, OTA get bullet hoses that can’t hit anyone in the same post code as where they aim. Not that it matters, since they can’t leave the dam anyway.
the actual point the rebels have to push is the dam, which is a massive chokepoint accessible from one angle.And before I get the “Combine main” shitpost responses, I’d like to point out that a rebel victory should be hard-fought, not spoonfed. Ever.
Remember the part in half life where you could kill OTA with a crowbarRemember that part in Episode 2, after you exit the mines and see lines upon lines of Combine soldiers and synths heading toward White Forest? That’s what I mean by discouragement.
We have plans for this, like we've discussed several times, but the first few days of the outlands experience is not the place to do that. I get that you're eagre but we've already gone over why we can't have everyone killing eachother within 48 hours just because.why not have both.. whats wrong with ota dying and an ar2 dropping
its a function in the game it should happen eventually........
all that being said I do agree with this point. think we'll do a few OTA assignments where they airdrop in certain areas, lot more fun for the OTA players and giving them some stuff to do aswell xoNo. Send them out to perform a certain task, and bring them back. Nobody is saying “OTA go to rebel base and kill them all.” No, perhaps have them go out and shoot some antlions instead. They can’t win if you don’t engage them in the first place.
i'll reiterate that the only pk thus far was because the conscripts went to the ledge right opposite the rebels and started s2king them, then got shot to death by mp7's and pistols, of which the union side has far more access to.Also feel the need to point out the two (three soon) active Vorts aren't nearly as broken as people say they are. Literally the one singular thing they are good at is sniping from range.
If we come up against two of literally anything on the Combine side we are 100% fucking dead at anything other than long range. We'll get mown down before we even manage to kill one person.
I mean that was sorta to be expected right? Everyone’s been hyping up the military groups and “war war war” sentiment since the initial announcement. Especially after their pleas for accessible guns & ammo were more or less answered.I don't know why people are expecting World War 3
theres combat in there sure, but its mainly about the roleplay. its not el classico go out and die on the battlefield s2k weekend. that's a lot of fun too but that's not what we're doing and I've said that several times.I mean that was sorta to be expected right? Everyone’s been hyping up the military groups and “war war war” sentiment since the initial announcement. Especially after their pleas for accessible guns & ammo were more or less answered.
if the intention was to create mostly passive roleplay the narrative shouldn’t be focused on a path towards full-scale city combat. Obviously people are going to expect combine vs rebels scenarios.
Hell, I sorta wish people were as hyped for ww3rp as they are for militaryrp on hl2 for some reason.
Huh… I was told that I couldn’t take more than 2 9mm boxes and 3 smg boxes.how has this happened btw lol there are literally infinite supply vendors in the dam base and villa for cops because rebels were going to be getting lots of ammo + weapons

We had 20 boxes of ammo for a mass of like 20 conscripts.how has this happened btw lol there are literally infinite supply vendors in the dam base and villa for cops because rebels were going to be getting lots of ammo + weapons
Cops unite and give these boys financial aidWe had 20 boxes of ammo for a mass of like 20 conscripts.
I'd like people to have more than one magazine of ammo like it's D47 and you gotta be a prostitute to get a singular bullet
