Game limitations don't hinder RP as long as it follows the rules and people want to abide to it. As such, we can't force people into our RP, but we can give them more stuff to use. As the IRMM has created personal weapons for use for example.
Then, the IRMM is primarily a research institute that is using its secrecy to gather intel on other factions to improve Maltese-made weaponry for use against them. Being a R&D as the first thing means that we're actively upgrading and making OC tech more advanced. Like for example, some people still believe that human crew are operating turrets on battleships, this is nonsense 800 years after settlement if we're capable of constructing Dreadnoughts. The IRMM itself is using robots to maintain its capital assets and only few Maltese are aboard. We've also documented a lot of technology and added more detail to it.
The way IRMM was made allows it to stay as an Institute that has Scientific RP on Forum and Intel&Military assets flying ingame. This way we have the best of both worlds while having access to vast resources and capabilities of Omicron Phi. Then again, what we do ingame reflects our Intel&Military divisions as this is primarily a Shooter game.
Basically, Intel commands Military and both bring reports back to Scientific division which in turn upgrades the tech in use.
