3/6-Campaign Part 2 Host's Name: Aparh Host's SteamID:STEAM_0:0:166093074 Event Title: Operation Infiltration Narrative: The US leaders were furious about the recent attack to the warehouse so they invited RU Ambassadors over to discuss treaties. While the Ambassador was stalling for time, the RU put to use the outfits they stole. A Squad of 4 were sent to the US base to act as an escort unit for the Ambassador under General William and General John. The Squad unsuspected by both US and the Generals. Once the Squad escorting got the ambassador to the location, they went off on their true mission. They arrived at a computer station to copy files of 75th Rangers operations into a hard drive. This hard drive if decrypted can give the Russians insight on what the US were planning. They got it safely back to Base, but must get it to headquarters for decryption.

You're completely right. RU has no advantages from coding or design. It's community based, for the longest time I haven't been able to figure out why good players migrate to RU. Is it because its less strict? Is it because the factions are more appealing? Is It become of Leadership? I've never quite been able to pinpoint what it is, but that is an issue that has to be figured out. But we'll save that for a different discussion post. As far as everything else you've stated, I'm in complete agreeance with it.

Gotchya, I understand your point now and agree. I like this idea of removing passive EXP but again there's the problem of newer players having it harder to get XP. Yes it doesn't have to be Kills only to get XP, But for the majority of the time RU dominates war, so if RU dominates they'll prestige quicker, leading to more buffs, leading to a cycle of US never leveling up, if ya get what i mean.

Medkits can be bought by any player if they just afk or even save up credits throughout days, so i think that point is pretty invalid. I don't think medkits break Gunfights that much, there's plenty other options for newer players to go down if they want to be on the same playing field (equipment wise) as other players. However, I do believe you have a point, AFKing to Prestige is unfair and takes away the "Hard Work" you have to put in to get that reward. I think an idea for a potential fix is resetting everyones Levels. From there, get rid of passive XP and boost the amount of XP you get during war therefore forcing players to play war for XP. The only downside is Players like Vega will gain massive amounts of XP while the new 2GA/11B with way fewer hours will be struggling. Another idea could be coding it so if you die to the AFK Timer, you no longer receive XP, this would also prevent people Afking for Prestige without taking away passive XP fully.

+1, Kermat is a good guy who's been around for quite a bit. Only has good intentions for the server. I believe he'll be a great asset to the Staff team. I also Agree with all the points above me.

Hey, Thanks for the Feedback. I knew this would be a issue people would bring up. My rebuttal to that is from my understanding the GM team is very small ( correct me if im wrong) therefore they need as much help as then can get. I feel I’ve proven that I can be a competent player and GameMaster. Waiting time will only be more negative towards the server, the player base has spiked quite a bit recently so I’m hoping that with GM i can provide entertainment so they stay engaged and active along with the older players as well. My intentions are pretty clear cut here, and i’m sure many of you can see that. Thank you for the Feedback Valor

In-game name: SSO OPT Aparh Age [minimum 15 y/o]: 15 SteamID: STEAM_0:0:166093074 Timezone: EST Playtime? [minimum 500 hours, use /playtime in-game]: | SSO JOPT Aparh has played for 1291:15:44. Do you have access to TeamSpeak and a microphone?: Yes Referral(s): None Past Experiences as GM: GarnetGaming SWRP GM Have you ever made any previous applications? If so, when?: No How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: 4 hours a day, excluding occasional weekends. In your own words, what are the responsibilities of a Gamemaster?:The responsibilities of a Game Master are pretty simple but very important to the success of the server. Game masters simply put have the role of helping supply well thought out and executed events and help bring more RP into the server. GM's Should also be constantly encouraging others to do Passive RP along with providing foundations and resources to do so. Game Masters need to be active, creative, and constantly listening to feedback. Along with the basic responsibilities of the Game Master, I feel they also have to be able to take in criticism from the community and use critical thinking skills to solve any problems that may arise during an event, or after an event. Game Masters are the Pillar of Roleplay on the server so they should act as such, especially in front of newer players. Describe how you would contribute to RP as a part of the Gamemaster team: As a Part of the Game Masters team I would contribute to RP not only by helping host events and coming up with ideas, but also contributing to the Main server's RP. This includes making Kidnap scenarios/ Raid scenarios more in-depth and adding a little more meaning behind them, this will excite newer players and push them to be more involved. Scenarios can always be created to allow players to engage in more fun activities but I feel I personally know the balance between overusing them and keeping them at the right level so they don't become repetitive. With using scenarios that may happen on its own in or outside of war I'll be able to use that in order to build better and different scenarios every time. I also believe with my knowledge of how the mechanics in PVP operates and the maps layout that it'll give me an advantage to planning out events. Explain your single most creative idea for contributing to the RP environment of the server: Germany calls upon the UN to help settle rising tensions in Siberia, the United States most elite forces are sent in to help counter attack Russian Soldiers. The Objective is to push the aggressive Russian Soldiers far back into Ukraine. Layout of the Event: The map will be switched to Siberia for 48 hours, with this we have constant war/events going on with a peacetime interval very 2 wars. This allows for War, into an event or vice versa. With this map switch there will be an action packed weekend of constant fighting and battling to give those War Junkies the combat they want and the Role-players the Experience they crave. This event would require a large part of the staff team to be active and participating. Please list and explain 5 unique event ideas of any scale: 1: Kidnap and Escape: The United States Special forces hear of a potential meeting somewhere around the Map between a Russian leader and a known terrorist. Their task is to stop the meeting and kidnap both the terrorist and Russian leader, but leave no alive soldiers. The US is to be flown in by the Air Force to make this a quick operation. Whether they'll succeed or not is up to them. There'll be consequences if they fail, or make a wrong move. (Combat and Roleplay) 2: Negotiations: Both the United States leader and the Russian Forces leader meet up with a man who goes by Robert Ulk, he has a lot of supplies and advantage points set up around the surrounding area that if any side could get, they'd have an advantage before the upcoming battles. The Goal of each side is to try to successfully negotiate and persuade the man to ally with them, only one side will get him. The side that wins the negotiations, will have an advantage. Vehicles that they didn't have access too, and weapons that they didn't know exists. ( Roleplay, Preferably before a war time, need admin to spawn in vehicles/cool weapons for the "winning" side) 3:Infiltrate and extract: A Russian Spy is sent into the United States base undercover to try to gather as much information as possible by talking around with other US soldiers. He must try to find out the locations of the next Supply drop, so the Russians can stop it and steal the goods. If he succeeds and gains the trust of the only individual on the US side knowing this information, he can extract and Russia will succeed. For this event, you'll need two people. The Spy and the Person with the Info, give the spy with the info hints throughout the way. Give the Person with info No hints. Have AFSOC make a supply drop to the US at Cons, only then will everyone see IF RU found the information or not. (Roleplay, Combat maybe) 4.Rescue: The United States got a distress call from citizens around the map, they must go around and rescue them and bring them back to base. They're all lost, the US must try to find them using their own search skills. In the Meanwhile, RU will also be patrolling them map, to see if they can get anyone to kidnap. If they successfully do kidnap, the United States must try to get them back alive. 5: This one isn't really Roleplay related, but a Competition to see which side can raid and last the longest inside the base. Both sides will have to set up a defense while the other side attacks. The side with the Longest time can win a Prize of some sort ( Up to GM). ( if there's any mistakes in the application that I may have missed just lmk)

I like it, I personally think this could be one of the best maps created. Personally I'd like to see slightly more bushes/rocks added as cover in throughout the map.

I don't have much to say about fixing the maps, but all I have to say is I disagree with allowing Delta to come back. While I personally love the map, the last time we bought it back there was even more complaints. @ This point I think either ECHO or Chaharikar is the best bet for dealing with base camp etc. It seems like these two maps are overall better and we had higher population count on them.
