Same as Surf Solar. Don't talk about the past of a game that has encountered many RP projects already. Not saying that this suggestion is bad though. It just looks complicated to do, and by then low priority =p

Yeah, maybe we just find all of the NPC lines, write some of our own, and then players can choose between:

Cowardly
Angry
Grizzled Veteran
Raider
Doctor

That kind of thing.

This would be more a solution.


Still, i doubt very hard that this will increase "rping" in any kind of way. And... if you are in some tb fight, you can simply write the text on your own too. I also doubt that someone will read it very much, if you have a hectic rt fight ongoing.

It's a nice addition, but it will hardly increase any roleplay...

I'm not really trying to increase RP, I am just suggesting it because I think it would be fun.

I pointed more into Roachors direction, because he claims it will increase the rping, which is simply not true.

Clearly you just don't understand the concept of RPing. It's creating a character, the more you can define it's personality via looks, speech, etc. the deeper it becomes. Being able to have custom shouts for when you get hit adds to that and gives you a more unique experience.

As for solar's "Yeah, we've never tried.  Roll Eyes We've never had people destroying RP "sessions" because they wanted to shoot everyone down for teh lulz, we never encountered people who were "drawing" swastikas on the ground, we've never head people shouting pictures of genitalia in the ncr etc. "

Drawing swastikas happens everywhere, just look at farm ville. RP sessions getting ruined is besides the point, there isn't enough customization for rp to be viable. Simple things like having a custom description or custom shouts would be simple to add, easy for people to edit and open up a greater range for people with imagination. This fear of people swearing is retarded considering that's what people do anyways. You're punishing everyone for the acts of a few that will be doing these things regardless.

You want custom shouts for your rp character? Simply press enter, type in text, press enter again.

Huh, that one was simple.


As we all see in what direction this is moving, I will close the thread. We can't transpose this idea right now anyway. Maybe in future, we will pick it up again.
