News Preview/Discussion - WW3RP: STASILAND

[Zarail]

Join my anarcho-transhumanist insurgency group you fools.

Nah but in all seriousness I'm excited. I like the concept of civs that try to just survive in the warzone while having to deal with all the groups and the soviets and everything.

As long as people don't constantly make throwaways to kill commies or whatever then I'm good.

 

[Powley]

To be quite honest, I think the same because it demeans the potential that StasilandRP has by limiting it to the success of prior WW3RP iterations.

wow, even after i give you CO and listen to your suggestions on MP reforms

I’m not saying your bad, but I was stabbed by special forces for not allowing a stray dog onto base and they managed to get out a court martial on OOC basis

Not your fault, but it kind of dampened my whole mood of even basic rules could be overruled if you complained enough

Hence why I decided to join Soviet’s

 

[Black Rain (1989)]

To be quite honest, it shouldn't be called WW3RP because then it gives the false pretence that you're going to be in an army fighting another army (Like the previous iterations of the game mode) which just isn't correct.

We debated about just dropping the WW3RP moniker, given the new setting. But after discussion we decided to keep it because a) it is still going to be militaryRP, although to a different extent and b) because it is the same lore and setting as previous iterations of WW3RP.

A random player on the sever browser isn't going to know what StasilandRP is upon first glance.

How are new players going to be greeted to the server? Willthey start as civilians/Soviets/etc? And will training be required for them?

In the meantime feel free to continue dropping questions here, even if they might not be answered immediately. Gives us a general idea on what sort of questions to expect.

I believe this is listed in the OP, Soviets will be a whitelisted faction with the 'open to all' faction being civilians/insurgents

 

[Dr Heckyll]

Will there be frequent map changes? Will this even be necessary without the conventional blue vs red dynamic?

 

[Zarail]

Any idea when the subforum will arrive for WW3RP?

 

[STUCK IN A CAKE]

the big question

Do you know when it will be available?

They didnt delete the old one, so headstaff can just make it visible for everyone I’m p sure.

 

[GenericPlayer]

will we see the use of chemical weapons/nuclear weapons have an effect on the server at all or na

 

[Roosebud]

Will there be frequent map changes? Will this even be necessary without the conventional blue vs red dynamic?

The way we've structured the concept is that we'd like to avoid frequent 'main' map changes to allow for people to actually establish organisations, bases, long-term plots etc etc. Though with the setting of WW3RP I reckon we can make good use of off-map events to portray other conflicts and situations happening around the world.

Not sure why you bring that up, considering I wasn't faction lead at the time. I also don't think that situation should reflect poorly on seal, considering I'm pretty sure that appeal was accepted by PK appeals, and not the faction leader.

Kinda had a chat with my guy @GenericPlayer I came to an interesting theory, Stasiland reminds me Jeudah and Shomeron(Also known as the west bank) local insurgency from local pop. Soviets acting as a security force to keep the insurgency down while having Njsoc trying to get local pop to go against the soviets(Like Hamas is doing right now and IDF forces lauching counter terrorisem shit against them). If it acts like it is from my own experience then it'll be grand since I love the shit I seen in the west bank during my time in the army

Can someone help me out here

So I played ww3rp one time back when I first joined neb, and I really didn’t understand why people enjoyed it to the extent they did.

My question is, what is it that made the server so fun?

[metropaun]
