Hi there. I'm HippoLover / Marcus. (Madbobby109's Account)
Before you open your giant, DRP-hating mouths, let me make this clear for you: we want serious RP,
but we also want to be able to set our own limits. If we want to RP about a mystic alien cube from space,
we'll RP about a mystic alien cube from space.
We are the newly formed DucksGoneWild Serious RP Community. If I reckon correctly, we've been up for almost a month now.
Currently we're running with RP_Downtown_V2 (Which I, unfortunately, hate).
When we get enough people that will actually bother to download a new map, we'll switch to something else.
Eventually we might get our own map, as several of our admins have a deep-seated hatred for the overused RP map we have today.
Besides, I'm hoping less people that aren't able to RP will join when they see the server without Downtown_v2. (map sugeztionz plox?)
As I'm actually still using most of my time improving the gamemode, I just yesterday had the time to set up the website, which is located at [url]www.ducksgonewild.ukgamers.com[/url].
As of the moment however, we aren't very organized. It will gradually improve once we get the gamemode completely done.
I am constantly looking to improve the gamemode, and we've had an update almost every second day or so. And I'm still not done.
One of our main rules is quite simple: use common sense. If you're not able to comply with this, please don't play.
We use an edited version of MetroRP, but since that has been cancelled, we're calling the gamemode "DarkRP (Duckified)".
We've indeed benefitted from the forced RP-name, but there will always be some people that can't understand this.
Most of the time these people will be kicked if they fail to get a descent name within two minutes.
The custom jobs we've added is as follows:
Guard,
Unemployed, ('Realistic' hobo.)
Provisioner (You could call it an 'upgraded' drugdealer.),
Hitman (Minimum 50$ for a hit.),
Secret Service (Protects the mayor.),
SWAT -> SWAT Sniper (These are NOT supposed to replace cops!),
Scientist,
Bartender (Able to buy a beer barrel.)
Wise Guy -> Mafia Boss,
Gangster -> Gangster Leader,
Radio Host (Uses the VoiceRadio addon.)
We've got PHX3 SVN and Wire SVN. The worst Wire tools have been restricted, and the people that abuse E2 will be disallowed to use it w/ FPP.
Aside from that we've got a mix between Mad Cows and CSS Realistic Weapons.
We've also added the add world props-script from Falco, and one of our admins has been enhancing the map with new props.
We have a total of 5 - incredibly awesome, I must say - admins.
We try our best to keep the server minge-free, which is why we have a trusted group of people with the ability to kick.
I coown the server with my IRL friend, The One / Kasper, so we're pretty coordinated.
Regarding download times: Last week I spend 14 hours straight figuring out FastDL. 'Twas hell, but it has paid off.
I'm gradually making myself more comfortable with LUA, so eventually I will be able to customize DRP the way I want it.
If you came here to troll, please go jump off a cliff. I want to be able to like DarkRP without getting bashed.
If you've joined and got any complaints, please tell me in a polite manner. I will look into it.
Also, if you've got any ideas (Remember, I am still restricted by the fact that I only know basic Lua), please tell me.
The server is located in London and is hosted at UKGame.
If you want to join, here's the IP: 89.238.160.25:27016
Sincerily yours,
HippoLover
I don't recommend UKGame as a host. Lags like fuck.
We've had the server for some time and it has never lagged at all. It's a really good service but I guess it depends where you stay.
Our players only experience lag if someone is spamming and at that, right after they are banned, they're props are deleted by admins by one click and the lag is gone.
We can prove that it is lag free if you join the server.
A tip: if you want serious RP don't use PHX3 or Wire.
It's more the people that would misuse the props than the props its self in our opinion.
It's not serious.
Yes it is, I remember madbobby and he is a very good man.

Just because people say your server ain't serious doesn't mean his can't be. I'll join and see for myself in a bit.

Rofl, They have hope. Its decent.
Thank you Steven
why did you rate yourself
Personally in my opinion. For DarkRP all you need are [b]Inaccurate[/b] weapons. That way firefights last much longer. You can also tone the damage down, or make the recoil fling your screen up. Not everyone can fire a gun.
Our weapons are realisticly accurate/innacurate. And also, we tend to when being involved in firefights, roleplay it more than just click click boom..
[QUOTE=Steven :D;25994285]Not everyone can fire a gun.[/QUOTE]
That would be a pretty sweet modification to the game, if they made it so that Policemen / Swat and such did the most accurate shooting => then GunDealer=> Gangsters and Guards => Citizens

Reason? Tell us! Complain! Don't just say random shit like that.
We need more information than just "It's not serious"
I can assure you it's serious.
'gonna be just like good ol' taimez :D
Oh yeah :D
In my opinion UKGame.com sux. They lagg and they crash. They are though in some sence proffesional.
Our server only crashes as often as normal Garry's Mod servers. Every server crashes at some point. UKGame is professional and we experience no lag what so ever.

I've used UKGame. Their servers can't handle anything. If you seek quality servers, you should use [url]www.brohoster.com[/url].
They can clearly handle our server, Join it to be proven.

You have to wait until you get 16-25 players, that's when the server crash.
When we have 16 players it doesn't crash.
A few things I'd recommend:
Get rid of any jobs that can be done with /job.
Get rid of SWAT.
That is all.

Hm, I'll discuss that with the Owners, can I ask why to remove the SWAT (We might have the same opinion)
Also, If the /job thing is a problem, we can easily just change every job to be voting.
[QUOTE=Madbobby109;26143139]Hm, I'll discuss that with the Owners, can I ask why to remove the SWAT (We might have the same opinion)[/QUOTE]
I'll just copy and paste my previous rant about SWAT here.
What everyone thinks SWAT is/wants SWAT to be: The special police that stealthily eliminate high priority targets, get cool special equipment, and do kick ass stuff like jump through cracked windows on the 5th story of a building and spray shotgun fire into the room killing the dangerous gang leader and anyone else unfortunate enough to get in their way.
What SWAT always actually ends up being: You get a shotgun, no arrest stick, no one ever actually needs you to stealthily eliminate anyone, because the police can just charge in and shoot anyone they need to, so you always end up either standing around doing nothing or RDMing out of boredom, you try to do cool shit like jump through the cracked window on the 5th story of a building but you always miss and die.
[QUOTE=Madbobby109;26143139]Also, If the /job thing is a problem, we can easily just change every job to be voting.[/QUOTE]
That's not quite what I meant...
I agree with the SWAT, I think the owners are going to remove it due to people thinking it's just an upper class from the cops... It's not, so that'll be removed shortly.
:)
The job function is an overused thing. In one server that I used to play on, there was only two jobs, cop, and citizen. You don't need much more than that.
That was just a big wall of text that really bored me. For the love of god, add some screenshots and spice the thread up a bit.

Agreed, as it states in the post, we're getting our own gamemode made up and it will only consist of factions being, Citizen, Medical Care, Law Enforcement, blablabla.
