Bloody Mary Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 As far as I know, there used to be a really popular serious roleplay server that had Bedford Falls mixed in with it. That was insanely fun. But now, the only serious roleplay servers are one that has questionable roleplay quality and crashes often, and one that's not a 24/7 server and is event-only. How come there's no modded roleplay servers around any more? Is Bedford Falls broken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeoIvanov Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 As far as I know, there used to be a really popular serious roleplay server that had Bedford Falls mixed in with it.

How come there's no modded roleplay servers around any more? Is Bedford Falls broken? 24/7 roleplay servers are most likely harder to maintain, exactly because of the reasons you've described above - "questionable roleplay" and "often crashes" due to small activity of the moderators/admins. You have to choose one of the two - either you tolerate the "questionable roleplay" with "occasional crashes" but be able to play 24/7, or you tolerate the server being off most of the time, but when it's on it has a good quality roleplay with rare crashes bothering you.

PhantomWarlock Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 This problem will only become bigger as the game increases in popularity. The horde of walking trollers will only get bigger.

harakka Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Whitelists are still best way to organize RP servers, public servers always attract trolls and people who don't want to play by the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madigari Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I'm interested in trying the multiplayer for the roleplaying as well, but I'm hesitant to do it on public servers for the very reason harakka says. But, when it comes to whitelisted servers, I'm not sure what to make of so many having Russian troops in the middle of Kentucky.

Viceroy Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Damn pubbies ruin any RP game that isn't whitelisted. They even ruin games that are entirely roleplay, like SS13. Private servers and friends are the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloody Mary Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 That's one reason I'm staying away from many "serious roleplay" servers up right now, Madigari. Even whitelisted ones are infested with... Russian special forces. In Kentucky. Logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheJarlDoom Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Could band together with other fellow survivors and start an RP server, I'd certainly be interested. The apocalypse can be a lonely place and not everyone likes to play the special forces survivalist expert who needs no help what so ever to survive the horde.

Kanachan Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 There are numerous decent white list servers - you've just got to look a little. Find a small, but not too small, server with decent admins and you're good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deprav Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I actually like the fact some people don't roleplay and grief, it's easy to give it a roleplay aspect. Call them "The crazy ones", some people who probably lost their minds during their fight for survival, psychotic survivors, some are barelly human anymore.It adds to the paranoïa in MP, when you see someone you don't know what the feck's gonna happen, keeps you on your toes.

Basically when you needed to make a run for resources you stashed your belongings in a safe place, then ran as naked as the game let you be while a buch of tank magiwizardroguedragontrainers riding raptors tried to Kal Vas Flam your briefs.

Zimbie Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Lmao I could picture it. A group of 5 survivors spawn together. They all roleplay, get along and form a group. They loot everything in the immediate area and get a few schoolbags and baseball bats / golf clubs. They work their way out of the city, taking a few in game days to accomplish it. During that time, they dealt with a few hardships. Survivor 1 gets bit, survivor 2 gets scratches but stays alive, survivor 3 ends up nearly dying due to hunger, survivor 4 is okay. Survivor 5 suddenly turns rogue and types into the chat: Survivor 5: "lol u guys r ghay lol" Survivors 2, 3 and 4 are confused by this, and they simply ignore it, but as soon as they turn their backs, survivor 5 comes up and stabs them all with a pencil and steals their loot. Survivor 5: "told u lol" Survivor 5 runs out onto the street but quickly gets gunned down by Bandit 1, 2, 3, and 4. They divide up the loot, and carry forth, but then get overrun by zombies due to the gunshots. All because a random survivor shanked his teammates with a pencil. false_chicken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum2016 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 My friend is going to be making a Strict Roleplay Server i am not sure which company will be hosting the server but it should have pretty good quality and good ping. The server will start out public but once we get issues with trolls we will whitelist it, if you guys are interested private message me and i will give you more info on the server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Bower Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I enjoy good RP servers but I suffer from the terrible paranoia they just want into my storeroom so I end up shooting a lot of RPers who walk into my land. false_chicken and MonaBabii 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
false_chicken Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I am looking to host semi RP server here in the near future. I enjoy them as well but trolls can be difficult to deal with. I had a hell of a nightmare dealing with cheaters/trolls on my Unturned survival server. So much so that I shut it down until 3.0 gets to a level of content on par with 2.0 (Plus its VAC sealed and actually has a way to ban people on dedicated servers.).

taha Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I'd love to join a RP server, but not one with PVP enabled.I do enjoy a PvP environment as much as the other guy, but right now you die from 2 shotgun shots with no chance to retaliate. Real story: I'm new, I just lotted an axe from a zed, and here comes the guy RPing a robber/mugger with 5 days in game, holding a shottie and tells me to drop my stuff. I drop some chicken and my golf club, he tells me to drop more. I drop a bottle of water, he keeps asking for more. I drop a sheet, and he shots me. I click on axe in inventory to equip it, he shots me again and kills me. I'm not complaining, I make another guy and join again, and in less than a hour, same guy is near me, asking again for free stuff. And, of course he shots me again. I make the 3rd guy, I start playing again, then I find out the "mugger" have admin privileges there. I am not going to give names or point fingers. Suffice to say that I'm not going to join a PvP server anytime soon So if any of you is willing to make a RP server, 24/7, without PvP enabled, but with lots of zeds (similar to insane sandbox), fast respawn times (1-4 hours), lot rare/extremely rare (maybe 12-24 hours respawn), I would be very interested to join.

I would have my server with safety enabled and displayed for all users with it off. Then you would at least know if anyone has it off that they are dangerous and you may want to shoot first. I don't like the idea of being able to see it for RP sake but its a necessity to prevent the kill on sight nature that is like a cancer in games of this genre.

Jack Bower Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Just log out while he is talking to you. I pretty much log out mid combat all the time and cheat like crazy, you just disappear and get to keep your stuff, teaches the looter to shoot first and you get to keep your stuff this time.However pvp must exist on any server I play on because if some guy walks into my base and starts looting my stuff, I want to defend my property. false_chicken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Bower Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I've played on some servers that had chat disabled and some that had it enabled, I really wish the radio item could be found randomly in the world and open up area chat to everyone who also has a radio.
