Hello everyone, we've been working on a lot of changes to HL2RP in order to bring around an interesting setting to play in. After countless pitches and brainstorming, we've finally established some baselines to how this project is going to run. It is for the most part a two-sided server, though splinters and conflict are expected to happen within the resistance side, and they are encouraged so that the roleplay is memorable.


LAUNCH DATE: 7th of January, 2023

Some new notes:
-The "civilian" faction is now an umbrella faction for all outlanders. Resistance groups, loners, contracted/independent, etc.. We've kept it flexible in case we want to do city based events or other situations where they'd fit.

-Generic civilian factions (CWU, UM, UIL) are obsolete and have been removed. We do however encourage any resistance-sided counterparts to be formed by players.

-Civil Protection and OTA have been merged into one fast-track system. If you apply for CivPro, you get to play a grunt at the end of the faction's hierarchy, which transfers you to the OTA whitelist. If you want to progress further than grunt in your time as OTA, you have to apply as well.

-Several combine models have been modified, thanks to @Paul1332

-Applications for all factions have been reduced in format size. Contracted rebel group and vortigaunt applications will obviously require a little more creativity than Combine ones. Becoming OTA has also been made easier.

-We have decided not to include conscripts, as we were looking to dehumanize the Combine faction, as that's what makes it iconic.

-The conditions to go rogue as CivPro have been loosened, but that does not mean surviving as one has gotten any easier.

-OTA is split into 3 subclasses, and reduced in stats, except for elites.

-Captures often put characters at PK risk, and survivors have all sorts of consequences they risk outside of death alone as well.

-New guns are being added, made by @Pyromancer with thanks to @Gary for their implementation.

-Iteration has intentionally been left vague for character creativity, pick and choose the stories you want if you're an older player
