Dillan

Conway multiple GMs and admins have been doing their duties with no problems. It's possible there is something wrong with your files. It could also mean the worst, but with you, I think the chance is low of you cheating.

It's been a long time since this occured. So people weren't ready for it. It always hurts when it happens.

People are overthinking something simple. A skirmish is just mini war. Contact. It's a form of sim without polite interaction. You just go, /comms (US) skirmish, at blank, blank parameters and time frame.

I'm on the fence for this one. Due to my concerns of the fluid player base. I like merc factions. I like the thought of being more independent. I love the idea of more then 2 main forces. The concern is numbers on the server. We have our active factions sure, like Vega, which stands out to me as the most stable of all the nation's. Even with that, we have hit fall semester. Our numbers stay under 90 for the most part. How will it sustain in the current climate. There are concerns of the rp aspect from others, but that's not a problem really, things are bent in rp often.

I had many good memories from these times back when I was a teenager. Truthfully, while I love this event for the nostalgia and the old times I experienced, I feel as though this will not change to much right now, especially for the work that would be required by our dev team. I lead Tali twice, revived it back before we had the extra RP options from the Game master team. Back then, we were having similar number problems, and our think tank suggested to switch AFG into RUS. The belief was people didn’t want to play cavemen with rocket launchers, and would rather play an organized nation. Nowadays I’m not sure. It could bring back veterans, add a whole new level of RP in the form of more hostility, its more RP friendly in some ways. (Super powers don’t fight normally, its proxy wars.) On the other hand, lots of vets don’t play anymore because they grew up. I work non-stop with my career, some are in collage where they don’t have that time. Some people have families now. Most people don’t understand the type of RP these people are actually supposed to be, (evil, really evil). I would honestly love it. I love explosive gameplay. I love my old memories of these factions. But I’m blinded by my younger years when I had time. I was in High school, Collage, Academy. I’m saddened by how I had to delete old docs because of how it could effect my future in government work. This is a wonderfully developed suggestion, with hours of effort, and more hours of thought. For all these words Im going to place a +1. This could help, and at least deserves some acknowledgment on the care for the server, thinking it could assist things. It has been I think 4 years since we swapped to RU, which is a long period of time. Thank you Bishop, for the trip down memory lane.

I'm sorry about that...

Thank you for your dedication.

I enjoyed third person mode during its time on the server during war, because it was a very effective crutch. The server was heavily war based for many years, since it was the core gameplay focus. Simulations, tryouts, and raids, were present only for fluff to give the feeling of progression. Third person as a tool is very fun. It allows for some variation to RP, and allows for a person to view the world from a different angle. It also allows for adjustments to combat and core gameplay of a firefight. I heavily used it while it was active during war. The reasoning being, it makes it easier for a player to have better game sense in combat. Most people claim aim is the most important skill a player must have, because if you can hit a player more than they hit you, you win. The other two skills that are necessary to be a good player are movement and game sense. We have all seen PVTs that don’t know what planet they are on, and get mowed down, because they forget people can exist besides in front of them. Third person allowed for skilled players to view over surfaces and terrains more skillfully, due to the enhanced game sense it allowed. It also allowed in some areas, wall bangs that the other person couldn’t see. I loved it because it helped me be a better player. However it was able to be abused with sniper rifles for example. Third person was nerfed and eventually removed over the years it was implemented. By setting the FOV to a maxed lower capacity, and removing the crosshair. Some player managed to find ways to abuse it still, by forcing the FOV, and some drawing dots on their monitor where a crosshair would be. G-man eventually removed it entirely, as it became unfit for the majority of the unskilled population to play against. Do I miss it, yes? Does it need to be added back? No. Currently events have been added to the server more consistently with the assistance of game masters, and staff with game master perms. While this can cause issues occasionally, it has revitalized many players with new RP, and creativity that it brought. It also, allows for third person to be used in these events. If you wish to use third person, there will always be NPCS, and role-play events where you can use them. -1.

On 07/27/2021 at approximately 1000 hours I (GM Dillan) assisted players online with entertainment due to one player being on. Upon teleporting to the player named zoo, I informed him, he was alone, and I spawn Tali, and gave him a few firearms. Upon informing him of this, I used commands to set his HP, and gave him weapons to assist him in killing the enemies located in the Embassy. At approximately 1010 hours, Error404 joined in the event, shooting NPCS inside the Embassy. I assisted Error404, by setting his HP, and giving him a rifle to fire upon Tali. After all of the NPCS are killed I return both players to their respective bases. At approximately 1020 hours, Whu joined the server, and I (GM Dillan) asked if Whu would like to participate in a non-rp combat event. He confirmed he did. Upon this, I assisted all of the players to Silo, to fire upon NPCS. At approximately 1100 hours all of the NPCS were killed. I then brought the players to the top of Silo, and spawned several gunships. I then, using commands, gave the players RPG-7’s to fire upon the gunships. Snile (Appeally) joined the server. I brought Snile to the top of the silo, along with the other players. After approximately 30 gunships were destroyed, I (GM Dillan) returned the players by killing them, or allowing them to be killed. At approximately 1110 hours, Mr. Snile requested to test the 50 cal firearms on the server. Using console commands, I (GM Dillan) gave Mr. Snile a 50 HMG, and inform him I would spawn NPCS for him to fire on. After he completed this task, I informed Mr. Snile not to fire upon anyone else with the weapon. No further information.

Best map is always cc desert

Darn it.

Portals are amazing, many uses. Very flexible.

I do a the tribe guides.

+1 good relations.

I tend to think they have a schedule similar to mine. Life over games typically. I would like to say I typically see atleast 1-3 at a given time. That's with my once a week typically. Self experience doesn't reflect the time playing with them. Adults have the benfits of typically being more mature, but play less, vs a teen or child playing more, but less mature. That's just the typical dichotomy.

Like I'm not joking on time, I got screwed the next two weeks. 16 hour shift on my day off on polar opposite hours in working, then placing me back Monday on normal night shift hours. Then constant days. Until the 19th for riot stuffs.

All I do is mic spam and use explosives

TALIIIIII WOOOOOOO BABY THATS WHAT IM HERE FOR THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT

Don't misunderstand me on the topic of activity, my crazy hours won't change untill July. Im just going to try to entertain people with some of the little time I have. 180-190 hours working from 7pm-7am dont leave a lot of free time.

In-game name: 18A 2LtR JukeBox Age: 22 SteamID (https://steamid.io/): Ill located later when im off shift. Warns: 2 Timezone: EST Playtime?: Aproximatly 2000 hours Do you have access to TeamSpeak and a microphone?: [YES/NO] yes Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?:[YES/NO] Yes Referral(s): [What administrator recommended you to apply?] None Past experiences as a Game Master: [Optional] Star wars rp, garnet Why should we choose you over other applicants? [minimum 2 paragraphs] I have a simple standard of events. Those who have observed events understand the simplicity. I have a good track record of constant events when I was able to play. I belive in combat and soft rp rather then complex plot lines. Especially for MRP, with its battlefield aesthetic. I have a relatively postive reputation with MRP, and play when I can. Due to current scheduling its usually about once or twice a week. When I get moved to day shift it should change to approximately double. Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details- On GG, a few warns here and there. Stripped of rank a few times. 1 accidental mass ban, due to a miss communication with my squad mates. How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: Night shift, twice a week. Day shift, 4 times a week. In your own words, what are the responsibilities of a Gamemaster?: To entertain bored players with some variety to war and tryouts. It can be an easy task or hard task depending on how you handle it really. . Describe how you would contribute to RP as a part of the Gamemaster team: Im just going to make combat events with pve elements like star wars, maybe some variety with soft rp, but Im not going to go complicated like the plot line of bo bo bo the fallen jedi Explain your single most creative idea for contributing to the RP environment of the server: Tali attacking and pushing into RU and US base, pushing in, which is dependent on leadership rolling dice very lucky. Failure to do so resulting in temporary minor handicaps. Please list and explain 5 unique event ideas of any scale: [Be sure to include any additional context that may be necessary to your explanation] Tail safe house raid: US performs a raid of a suspected Tali safe house with proper ROE. Failure to perform proper ROE results in punishment via command. Tali Spy: There is a Tali spy undercover in the base, figure out who with clues. Failure to do so results in sabatoge of the base and deaths of soldiers. Airborne rescue: Air force deploys on powerplant to rescue to a kidnapped soldier, using ambush tactics without advert restriction. Car chase: MP chases a vehicle that was hijacked by tail, resulting in hijinks ensuing. Tali squad assualt: A group of tali assault a base, which is just soldiers with changed names, with Npcs acting as distractions.

Honestly memory's of garnet gaming have last many many years. I started playing at 16 or 17 still in high school, loading into army recruitment because I didnt know better. A tali spy ( when silent raids existed ) broke in a said, yo you wanna be a bad guy. Things were simpler, less strict. On a simple map. When gman added things they were breakthrough points. When vehciles were first added, game changer. When quads were added, game changer. When gman did a weapon overhaul to a different system, game changer. Things were new, things were fresh. I will always look fondly back at tali and the memorys made with wars raid and forming alliances. Silent raids, artillery strikes with a 11 grenade rpgs. A 30 man line for Marsoc when it was a mark of honer and skill. Smokes being a default weapon for strats to counter snipers. Times were simpler. Ive grown since then, I haven't got a chance to play with buddy's for 7 days because of work, probably another 4 still. I honestly can't give technical advise. Marketing advice. I can give advise on fun, what would be fun. Maybe playing off of the rotation previously talked about could be a good idea. You have a ton of maps now. Monthly map change. I like the current map for a few reasons, its got nice objectives, and small compaired to others. I loved 4 factions, not because of player counts, but the political aspect. People love politics a lot, they really do and that brings that to the table. Testing original desert could be nice for the chance to see if people come back due to nostalgia, its certainly a strong encouragement. Initation rules could be implemented, allowing for one to proceed with rp properly instead of a set track enforced by others.

I can't wait for the police revamp on the server, paramilitary police babyyyy
