[IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54545396/warzone.png[/IMG] [B]General Information[/B] We're launching this server on 16/05/2014. For a while now we've been hosting a pretty standard HL2RP server using NutScript. However, after some feedback from our players we came to the realization that the way HL2RP has been done so far has been done to death. We decided that we wanted to take the HL2RP premise and do something a bit different with it, something that will hopefully be much more rewarding for regular players. A common problem in a lot of roleplay servers is that it's hard for players that aren't admins or a part of any factions to actually do anything rewarding, this is especially true for HL2RP servers. We hope to fix this with Half-Life 2: War Zone. Half-Life 2: War Zone is based on an alternative timeline in the Half-Life universe, one that is set several years after the events of Half-Life 2: Episode 2. The Combine empire has fallen, and the Combine are now unable to teleport new troops to Earth. This has caused the Combine to seemingly retreat from earth for good, but this also meant that humanity had to try and rebuild the world that the Combine had been rebuilding for them. All of the Combine's urban centers had been destroyed in the war against the Combine, and the few that were still inhabitable would eventually be torn down by raiders and Xen creatures. The remains of humanity had to leave the comfort of the urban centers and journey out into the post-apocalyptic wasteland, where the threat of the portal storms and the Xen creatures became more apparent than ever. The server is set in the remains of Sector 18, which is now a wasteland surrounding the ruins of what used to be City 18. There are some basic factions present on the server, however we also hope that players will create their own groups and factions. Below you'll find a list of the factions that will be there on the launch. [B]Factions[/B] [I]OverWatch Transhuman Arm (OTA)[/I] The OverWatch Transhuman Arm (OTA) used to be the Combine's primary military force in Sector 18, however after the downfall of the Combine empire they have been severely weakened. After the Combine retreated from Earth the previous City Administrator of City 18 seized control of the remaining OTA troops and has ever since been leading the faction. It is believed that he is trying to rebuild the Combine empire and create new OTA soldiers. [I]Civil Protection Remnants (CPR)[/I] The Civil Protection Remnants (CPR) are the remnants of City 18's Civil Protection force. Due to their past association with the Combine they have been shunned by the Lambda Resistance as well as other citizens that used to inhabit City 18. They no longer associate themselves with the Combine or the OTA, and their only real motive seems to be to stay alive. [I]The Lambda Resistance (Resistance)[/I] The Lambda Resistance is the only faction that has managed to stay intact after the downfall of the Combine empire and the Combine's retreat from Earth. They were the ones who fought the Combine and eventually defeated them. After the Combine originally retreated, the Lambda Resistance tried to form a new world government, however their plans fell through when people didn't want them as their leaders. As of now, their motives are unclear however they have been known to help people out in the wasteland.

thank you for informing me what the OTA are, I'm sure other people here will find the information helpful.
Thanks for informing me also.
[QUOTE=Eldeos;44755658]Thanks for informing me also.[/QUOTE] Stop trying to jump on the bandwagon :/ [editline]8th May 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=axon;44755300]thank you for informing me what the OTA are, I'm sure other people here will find the information helpful.[/QUOTE] It's informing you of what OUR version of the OTA are like and what the story behind them is. You done?
Now let me tell you what, you ain't exciting me with a long page full text.
I'm holding my gravestone of RP. Let's see when it is online.
What map are you planning on using?
[QUOTE=axon;44756840]Now let me tell you what, you ain't exciting me with a long page full text.[/QUOTE] Yeah, sorry about that. This thread was posted a bit earlier than I would've wanted. Since the server isn't launching until next week we don't really have much else to show other than information about it. Hopefully we'll be able to show something a bit more interesting in the coming days as we get the schema ready. And yeah, most people know what the OTA is, but our version is different since the combine has retreated from earth. Figured it was a good idea to post what factions we're planning on using. [QUOTE=Sally;44757778]What map are you planning on using?[/QUOTE] Right now we're planning on using rp_apocalypse, however we're open to suggestions.
