As the thread title states, it's currently a work in progress. The reason I wanted to post this before development has been complete is because I was assuming Facepunch would wish to pitch in on ideas and suggestions for the server's creation. Fans of cyberpunk in general are probably going to want to have some input before the final product is released as well.
is this because terminal velocity failed
Are you actually going to pay for these 'hired' coders?
[QUOTE=Death_God;43035472]is this because terminal velocity failed[/QUOTE]
Actually, if you look carefully enough, you can see it's under the exact same community name. It was a community decision to start a new schema and hopefully provide a more original experience.
[QUOTE=Ejbaker;43035811]Are you actually going to pay for these 'hired' coders?[/QUOTE]
That's the implication of 'hired'. It's only fair as well that those who code for us get paid.
how could it be a community decision if your forums are as empty as a desert???

An off-site survey was sent to community members to be completed. Thanks for your curiosity, though.
PS: 250 posts isn't really that empty, just sayin'.

my top posters have a combined total of 1000, 250 posts is pissing into an ocean.
I'm quite interested to see where this goes, I rather like Cyberpunk stuff.

Feel free to give input, then! We're looking for those familiar with Cyberpunk in general to help with themes and ideas.
[B]Updates of 12/5/13[/B]
Custom schema files complete.
Battery-powered weapons nearing development completion.
Custom models mid-way to completion.
Mobile devices now fully skinned, has begun the coding stage.
Body augments have begun the coding stage.
This looks like a real neat idea! I'm sorry to hear that the whole HLR2 ordeal failed for you. It's pretty overused by now and many won't even give it a chance.
This is something I have not seen before, so hopefully people will try it out.
Nice work thus far! I really like what I see in the screenshots.
And fellas, it doesn't matter if the previous thing he did failed; he is coming back and trying something entirely new; give him a break.
Can't wait to see this complete. Looks like a schema worth joining!
[b]Developer Update #1 [/b]is now on our forums for those interested.
You can view it [URL=http://www.terminalvelocitygaming.com/index.php?/topic/105-protopolis-developer-update-1/]here[/URL].
The current topic of Developer Update #1 revolves around Protopolis as an idea, a schema, and a server. It briefly discusses the current progress of all three of these. Those interested in the progress being made can check it out for a brief update on the thoughts regarding progress, ideas for the schema and a small mention of a few things currently in the works or already finished.

That's a very itneresting project. I am out of lua coding and gmod rp, but I will be following this as it looks like the msot interesting serious rp theme I have seen.
Going to be posting another developer entry soon. Anything you guys want me to specifically discuss?
how much new retro wave and synthpop will there be?
is it possible to add in the revolver from Blade Runner?
vehicles?
any factions you can reveal?
any other cool gadgets aside the phone?
Since Dev Entry #2 is already pretty packed, I'll address some of these now.
[QUOTE=MaikkiBoi;43250177]how much new retro wave and synthpop will there be?
[/QUOTE]
Our current plans for music trends involve electrojazz being more-so popular in the slum areas while synth-ambience would be more commonly played in wealthier areas by the richer folk.
The idea of adding some synthpop isn't half bad though, could easily fit in with the theme.
[QUOTE=MaikkiBoi;43250177]
vehicles?
[/QUOTE]
Police will most likely have access to a few choppers and the idea of implementing hoverboards or something of the like is currently in discussion.
It definitely has ups and downs, although they could generally be pretty cool if implemented correctly.
[QUOTE=MaikkiBoi;43250177]
any factions you can reveal?
[/QUOTE]
We plan on breaking the traditional faction-based system and instead simply classify every human as human and let them roleplay what they can.
A member of the Police is still a person while off-duty and there's definitely more to roleplaying than a job.
[QUOTE=MaikkiBoi;43250177]
any other cool gadgets aside the phone?[/QUOTE]
Some of this is going into Dev Entry #2, but the quick answer to this is simply yes.
Developer Entry #2 is now up.

The thing I don't get is why you even bothered making a thread here in the first place. Nobody cares you have an 'original' RP concept (So original in fact, that it's got plot elements copy+pasted from Deus Ex: Human Revolution). When you have screenshots, or something actually worth reading, you should make a thread. This is hardly worth reading at all.
This is a clear attempt at trying to stir up hype for your latest in a long series of failed projects.

Never actually played any Deus Ex game or even looked into the series. I took a quick look at the Wikipedia page after you mentioned it, though. It only really has standard Cyberpunk ideas; more-so relating to the specific Cyberpunk related themes such as 'High-Tech, Low-Life' or the economic divisions which have been in far more Cyberpunk media than Deus Ex, which can be generally seen in real life (see: ghetto, slum, etc.) as well.
Pictures are being currently uploaded to the thread as progress is made. If you pay minimal attention, you can see that this is the 'games in progress' board. As a 'work in progress' that's been in development for several months and the recent thread here is meant to collect ideas on what people would like to see (and we have been getting a lot of positive support with the idea as well as ideas and new sub-themes to add to the server) and then perhaps later (give or take early-January) we plan on getting the remaining features that need to be coded done, and content pictures will be put onto Facepunch.
The thread isn't putting up the full canon or progress done in the OP, though. That's simply flooding what shouldn't take up too much space. If you'd like to see new progress in development, I'd check out the developer logs, which will answer more of your questions and hopefully such as on server mechanics and why exactly we've been limited on content to upload. We will, however, hopefully have more to show in early January. If you have any further questions, complaints, etc., I encourage you to contact me via Steam ([TV-VII] Monkah).
[QUOTE=Monkah;43263769]*hi im monkah i like to beat around the bush[/QUOTE]
Yeah, no. This thread is practically begging for modelers and coders. Wrong section, bub. Also, anyone with a single braincell can easily see than an RP server full of cybermen with robotic augmentations will be the biggest mary sue shitfest on earth.
Your whole idea is flawed and it will fail like all of your other bad ideas. Maybe you should take the hint.
I think after about 4 years of sitting in hiatus Tekka still has more potential over at TnB.

It's been about a week and a half since I've posted here, so I figured I might as well give a small heads up for those interested. A decent amount of progress has been made on Protopolis as of late-- a lot of ideas are becoming plugins and a lot of writing is being finished. With a more general idea of where our themes currently reside, I figured that in order to create a decently realistic culture, it needs to be defined somewhere. Basic trends in society due to the various events that happened over the course of the server.
[URL=http://www.terminalvelocitygaming.com/index.php?/topic/107-culture-of-protopolis/]Culture of Protopolis[/URL]
The reason for a culture-based thread in general is to simply show how the average person would react to specific controversial topics and opinions. It can also be used by new players as a foothold onto the server, getting to understand a bit more of how the server is actually like before joining.
[B]In other news...[/B]
We've finally settled on a fair number of body modifications as well as general server themes. However, we're still searching for ideas based on technology such as laptops, cellphones, and other similar electronic devices.
Those with ideas & suggestions are welcome to pitch in on the thread or [URL=http://www.terminalvelocitygaming.com/index.php?/topic/107-culture-of-protopolis/]message me on Steam.[/URL]
