C'mon guys

ANOTHER text RP?

Anooother one?

After the fifty others that got 40 million people following it who abandoned it almost immediately afterwards?

If you're going to do something like this restrict it to a short roster of characters all in the same area, having it open just makes everything a pain in the ass to manage/keep up with.

I know some of the people who play these are good at writing and stuff, but seriously.
Saw this coming the second I created this. Don't whine about it. If you don't like all these text Rp's, don't even bother coming to Community Projects. Half the stuff in here is text rp's. Go away

Hey, I'm just saying - some illustrations or a comic-bookesque plot progression instead of wallls oooof teexxttttt would be nice to see.

I agree with Supreme that the scope is too big and people are writing too much.

We need to limit this to a very small area and scenario. Right now people can just be anywhere so we get a whole bunch of people spread out all over the place, and no one really gets to interact.

We also need to not let people make up anything they want, or before we know it this will be nothing like Half-Life 2.

And when it comes to writing, I think we need to write it like scripted dialog. It also needs to mostly be focus on your actions as your role, because this is not "Half-Life 2 Storytelling" Something like this for example:

[I walk into a room]
Me: Hello everyone! I am Tom!
[I take out my gun and shoot at everything]
Me: LOLOLOLOL SHOOTING IS FUN

Name: Bob
Species: Human
Side: Rebel
Class: Medic
Location: Eli's Lab
Inventory (2/6): Shotgun (6/24 ammo), Medical Supplies
Status: Fine



I survey the scene in Eli's Lab, where there was just an attack. I go over to help some wounded people, and I'm suddenly staring into a Combine Soldier's face. I hit him with 2 shells from the shotgun, killing him, then start dragging injured survivors to a safer place.

Once they're all safe, I reload my shotgun and fix them up as best as I can. I then wait for some instructions.

@Jorici   & Jokey .

May I be Felix Freeman? (that one guy from Felix's Mind who was replacing gordon due to the Gman being a forgettard)

(Only reason I asked Jorici and Jokey, is because Jorici is too good to not be asked.)

Backup character, GO!

Name: Alexander
Species: Human
Side: Rebel
Class: Sniper
Location: Eli's Lab
Inventory (2/6): Combine Sniper (If I'm allowed. Otherwise, SMG and Crossbow) (6/24 ammo), SMG1 (20/100)
Status: Fine


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I looked over to Bob, and headed over to help him drag a few survivors along.
I muffled a sigh as I sat down, leaning on a wall. I mumbled slightly, inaudible. I had fired down several combine. "Hey, Bob. Do you even know what's under those helmets?" I said, gesturing to the combine helmet.

If I keep letting people be actual characters from Half life (2), then everyone will ask. This is the last one.

NO MORE ASKING

Location: City17 apartment
Race: Humans
Class: Citzen
Invetory: A soda can, and a stolen stun baton
I walked down the the dark hallways of my apartment, It was sortof like when there was no such thing as the combine of stuff like that. Ahhh, those were the days. I did happen to see a man going by "The one free-man"
According to Dr. Breen. Man, If I could get my hands on him, I would hang him from his citadel. I was transported here from City19 It was a rough ride, but the worst part was that my wife was captured.I wish one day this would end. Speaking of my wife, she boarded a stalker train after she was captured. Poor bastards.

Alexander asks me if I know what's under the Combine helmets.

Bob: I don't know. Wanna find out?

Alexander: Nah, I don't really wanna know.

Bob: Me neither.

Suddenly, Eli comes over to us. He tells us we need to go to Kleiner's Lab, where we'll hole up until the main rebel assault begins. The teleporter is down, so we'll have to walk it.

We walk over to the airboat, and hop in. I notice that a machine gun turret is mounted on the front, and ask Alexander to man it while I drive. He agrees, and we go off in the waterways to Kleiner's Lab.

Felix isn't even canon, though.

Name: Alexander
Species: Human
Side: Rebel
Class: Sniper
Location: Eli's Lab
Inventory (3/6): Combine Sniper, SMG and Crossbow
Status: Fine

"Ugh.." I murmured,  manning the MG. So far, we were fine.

---------------

Name: Felix Freeman
Species: Human
Side: Rebel
Class: Unknown
Location: On the move. Area unknown.
Inventory: 4/6:
Battered Crowbar, USP, SMG1, stunstick.

I coughed out a sigh as I started to continue the run. Hell. Trying to get to Kliener on foot is harder than stuff. "FUUUU-" I shouted, smashing into a roll as I ducked, and fired at a combine soldier. I was one of the few in the older HEVs. Really. Gordon mainly was the one with the up to date. I fired off another shot, before continuing to move. I saw a airboat on the go, and shouted "HEY!" to the driver. The machinegunner looked towards me.

"Bob, he's got a HEV! Wanna let him on?" I said, looking over to Bob, as I sat with a hand on the MG.

Leeroy, please read the rules. They clearly state you cannot have an HEV suit

Leeroy, please read the rules. They clearly state you cannot have an HEV suit

Well, its an older HEV, it probably cant give him a suit charge, so why not?

I decide to let him on. He sorta hangs out on top of the seat behind us with his SMG ready. I learn his name is Felix and he's going to Kleiner's Lab.

Suddenly, we hear a Combine boat behind us. They managed to develop boats, but they're flimsy and break apart easily.

"Shoot it!" I yell.

It can't charge, it only breaks fall and allows a bit of bullet protection, orbs can still wound, but not dissipate you. Thats all it does. Shrapnel can damage it.

Damn you I wanted a crowbar. D:

You can have one. Just no being Gordon Freeman
