Stokes? You mean Daisin! And don't forget Oga station.

But to get this back on topic, it is certainly feasible for the Kampetai to be played by characters who are simply too serious... it would be rather fun.

I say go for it.

Quorg, you're officially a moron.

I'd suggest you get rid of the 'Hilarious cartoonish' attitude you want to give them, and replace it with cold blooded 'Gaijin killer'. Kusari ain't a joke. And those who think of it as one generaly don't last long when they come up against the serious factions.

Kusari is not a laugh, it's a serious nation with serious players, if you want to play the old style LPI, go to Liberty or somewhere else with it.

If you want to play a police force, join the KSP.

Alternately, join the GC.

We have a tea house.

Fear it.

I'd suggest doing a hot-fuzz approach with bretonian police =P

DO EET!

But seriously, I think Kusari is TOO serious sometimes. It can get depressing sometimes when everyone is too bloodthirsty and hating of one another to do anything other then shoot at each other. The only comic relief that I've seen is either the GC tea house, the \CS\, or a direct result of my activities (KNF-Senzo + \CS\-Ironwatsas, the time wneh Ieyoshi Takashi attempted to commit seppuku on the antenna farm on Roppongi, the Magic Cardimine/Lizard-Cat incendent, etc.)

It it's too serious, it becomes dull and/or depressing. I would say try the idea out, if it works, it works, if it dosen't, Zelot will let us all know.

So serious, it's boring to tears. So serious, they really speak as much as statues.
GC in that regard make serious Kusari, more fun. For one, they actually say something else than just "engaging!"
or...
"HONOR!"

And when challenged with "what is honor?"
responds...
"KILL U!" xD

I agree with Yue. Too serious. It seems this entire attitude of "Super serial, you guys" comes from some (excuse the term) nerdy infatuation with "Omg Japanz r so kewl, they r all serius w/ ther techz and animez".

Whereas you can make a joke out of America all you like. I'm actually rather insulted by that, Kevin/Exile... Less so Exile, because he didn't refer Patty to Liberty, but the point remains.

And if anybody still takes offense to my use of l33t to exaggerate a point, I think you ought to know me better than that 2 years later.

lulz. Kusari is a "semblant de serieux" as we'd say in french. I don't have better word in english.

It's all cosplayed out on how the Westerners think of Samurai (pardon me, I mean, Feodal) Japan.
To make it worse, Freelancer developper really just want you to think that way because this game is all about stereotype. (Yep, we know all british are goth)

But, let me say it; you are doing it wrong.
The only ones doing it -right-, in my time in Kusari that I've possibly witnessed, were AFA, and GC.

Blood Dragon? I never see the faction, but the indies...
"BANZAI!!!" much.

KNF?
"BANZAI!!"

KSP?
actually, this one I dont know, because I've seen basically no one play as KSP.

Seriously. Kusari warriors are more than just "honor kamikaze sake and katana."
There's much more to Japan than what I've seen roleplayed out.

And this comes from a Chinese patriot. Tells you much of my stance on Japan.. hehe

What? You mean shooting up the whole place and kicking old ladies square in the face?? Sign me up.

[Rudo]

The reason I've never made a Kusari character is because of all the Konichiwa's and -san's. Reminds me way too much of a bad anime convention where the people all live on green tea and stale Pocky.

I tried my hand at a Hogosha, but what interactions I had I felt were disrupting what the locals had going on, so I pretty much abandoned it. I'll try my hand at it again when Kusari feels it's ready for your typical cocky fast-ship flying rich-kid "You can't touch me, do you KNOW who my father is?!" young gangster.

Kusari is Serius Bizness!!!!

Couldn't resist.

Good luck with the faction, I'd support a faction like Hot Fuzz in Bretonia. That'd be hallarious.

You fear oblivion. Yet you forget. The universe remembers every atom of your being. Even dust hums your name in the dark.
Roleplay is dead. Long live Powertraders and PvP I guess.
