' Wrote:Okay, after the kudos for the roleplay of one individual SCRA last time, some criticism now for the faction behaviour in genereal (after the Dublin massacre) because I feel there is actually something wrong:
So you made a second sub-faction inside the SCRA to be able top drop the little roleplay one could have with you (= the positive sides of commuism, the worker's quest, etc) and to be able to engage all the few parties still left?
Is it true that it is not really a war inside the SCRA (2 leaders, 2 different sides, 2 groups of players fighting each other), but that it is 1 leader, a united player base just flying today as "Katz-ists" and one day as "Volkhan-ists"? The unchanged large numbers of SCRA spamming into systems and killing literally EVERYTHING (and all roleplay to be found there) make me guess it is a unified player base.
I will be looking really close in the future to see whether the Katz-chars are always flying as Katzians and the Volkhanists as Volkhanists. Because I have the suspicion that it's just random characters being used, which I cannot prove (yet).
So I can only say for feedback (and please mind the sarcasm): Great. Awesome!
You replaced the former SCRA roleplay with the "roleplay": "For Volkhan! Die, enemies of Volkhan! Ehm... that's all of Sirius! Wow. Diieeee... all of you!"
Not really amazing. You see, I am absolutely not enthusiastic about your "great idea".
Forming a subfaction to be able to pew everything, is just lame.
Wiping roleplay from complete systems in which you comfortably defined ALL parties as enemies (Dublin: you shoot IMG, Molly, BAF, BMM = all parties with bases in the system) is just a no-go in my opinion.
Just read your "victory report" if you don't know what this is about:
To continue, with no contacts in the area I chose to proceed to Dublin. Given the recent Rebel activity and the rather target-rich environment it was a good way to both extend our patrol and introduce the Scouts to some more "entertaining" bits of space.
= translated into OORP: Hehe, we went to a place where we can shoot everything, lots of players that we all defined as "hostile".
"To finally conclude this report, with the area clear of hostile elements and us having successfully displayed the might of the Volkhan on the battlefield, I ordered my flight to return to Gorodok."
= we made all RP cease, shot all active players of all the factions and we won. Haha. Pvp for the win.
This is your roleplay? To show the power in battle? To introduce your pilots to the fun of shooting?
Get some real roleplay, I'd say. Something else beside "We shoot pixels because we can spell a name."
If you just want to be a terrorist organisation that is allowed to shoot everybody, then make an announcement on the forums, get a tag that identifies you on long range so that every player knows: "Ah, the 'we kill you all' guys are in my system, let's dock, I don't feel like "playing" with them".
Hiding pewpew-mentality behind the SCRA name (I cannot tell Katzians from Volkhans until I ask and then it is too late) is simply not fair if you are only after the blue messages.
IMG|Jack_Henderson, one of the people who actually like to RP even if it is "only" Dublin (that one can wipe clean...) .
Dun, dun, duuuuuuuuun. But on a more serious note. I think you've seen me recently Alla Alesky, and you probably saw me get shot with the Gaians. When this first started most of SCRA had loyalist (Volkhan's men) and Rebels. (Katz)
At first this was to avoid any in-fighting and hard feelings within the factions when we actually did end up having to shoot one another. Personally I don't own a loyalist character, and most of the rebels don't anymore either, since I took most of the newer recruits into rebels to boost activity.
As far as you and a fair few others getting blown up by the other SCRA, my apologies I wasn't there, so I have no idea what your exact complaint is this time. If you think the Volkhan was an RP idea made just to shoot you quicker, you can always make a comm thread, kiss rear, shake hands, and avoid getting shot by him, period. He does have the larger army afterall.
