Sup gmod fans. Like the title suggests, I've requested a server for gmod on our new dedi, and so here, straight to the point, what gamemode do you want? Let me recap some of the history so you can keep your suggestions proper:

- Dark RP ... a thorn in my side and the gmod community. Notoriously known for kids, qq and lag. If you guys want it...

- Fretta was a good concept in theory, but the reality is it's way beyond broke. Sure, some work, some are fun, ttt is even fretta, but ultimately it can get boring fast. Scrapped this idea once the server started dying. Don't suggest this.

- Winter survival sucked. I cannot express it any better. The mod seemed like a half ass attempt of creating something fun, and the original version of this mod was 10x worse than the extended one. Along with being very much outdated and broke, it's not something I will be adding.

- Stranded was pretty much winter survival but better. However even this was outdated and broke. Bugs here and there, the concept was nice but just to dull compared to other real games like it. (Lol runescape)

- Finally a second ttt is unlikely to happen. I don't see the point in having 2 versions of the same mod. The server atm has a pain station and a couple edits from the original but overall it's vanilla.

Other suggestions like:
- perp, no money for that
- flood mod, no idea but one time I played it it seemed like a one trick pony
- mirror's edge/free runner mod.... again why?
- That zombie one that's old as fuck I can't remember what it's called but still fairly broke.

If you ask me I would still try the zombie survival mod. Pretty popular, wouldn't hurt to give it a go. It's pretty old as well but hell shootin zombies never gets old.

Lets hear some thoughts people!

I agree with you sparan, out of all the gmod mods ive played i find ttt and zs the most fun, other then that flood is quite cool but doesn get boring after a while. I wouldn;t call it a 1 trick pony as you get money for shooting other peoples boats so you cna build a better boat, so i does have some replay ability

I personally wouldn't like an Dark RP server (again), the cons as you listed above most notably QQ'ing in my opinion made the experience playing on the server while it was up unbearable. I'd like to do something like zombie survival, I've played on some servers that are fairly successful and were a joy to play on with a mass of other people that helped give the mod some variety and fun.

I would absolutely hate darkRP, nother ever happened if you joined late as people already had massive amount of barricades and stuff which meant you just went around getting killed for no reason (or atleast that is what happened to me).

Spartan

Added a poll.

Well I've just noticed Zombie Survival has been recently updated but remains private. Too many people editing it and shit. So only the years old version is downloadable and probably has bugs in it.

DarkRP is at svn 2.4.2, can't remember when I last left it off.

Was it parasite the name of that other crappy zombie mod? Lol.

Another Zombie? Why would we get a buggy Zombie mod on Gmod, when we have great zombie mod on CSS hardly any bugs there. And everyone here mostly has CS:S because majority of our servers are there. If they want to kill zombies they can simply play tht.

I'd vote for something like a Sandbox Roleplay. (like minecraft on Gmod) I wouldnt mind playing that a bit, build some cool shit people can use.

But i'd just prefer to use the money for the gmod server on something else.

23 Mar 2011, 03:23pm
I agree with Strike about not wanting a buggy zombie mod just for the sake of zombies. That, and the Build/Sandbox servers we've had failed. If I wanted to build, I'd just go to Minecraft.

DarkRP is a totally unique experience, and it feels like there are very few left on GMOD that are 1). Populated and 2). Don't require countless hours of downloading retarded custom skins. A mostly vanilla DarkRP server would be great, and something very fun for the community.

Not to mention that the community tend to get REALLY involved with DarkRP. Last time it was full frequently with SG Sups + Admins and it was such a good laugh.

dark rp was fun.
sure there were trolls, but once they revealed themselves everyone else in there server ganged up on them and harassed them until they quit, so it was never as big of a deal as say... trolls in ttt.

but id be down for zs. just seems like the server would be never have enough players, and thus end up a ghost town quick.

Maybe SG isnt meant to have 2 gmod servers?

Zombie survival. Very fun and addicting , assuming that we are thinking of the same mod ( with the different classes on both side , redemption and whatnot. )


Dark RP will just be a lot of QQ and admins ending up banning a lot of people.

Spiritwind
24 Mar 2011, 01:48am
I personally think Darkrp as well, except it would be nice if SG got a group of experienced and talented coders from the community together and started modding it our own way, something that would be special from every other darkrp server, and changes that would keep the community interested.
I know you guys were doing a lot of work on it before, but playing regularly it felt like you guys were just getting the hang of it.
Wonder how many people in the community know Lua.
I dont see why people say it was unpopulated, I played it regularly and I remember there almost always being people on the server.

I don't know if anything I'm saying now has been previously said, but the problem with DarkRP, was mainly that the rules were not taken seriously, be it by a completely noob to the server or by the admins, if you wanted the DarkRP to stay fun, but also keep it free of trolls you would have to make sure you stated the rules before releasing the server, making sure people knew what they could and couldn't do.
It would be useful to have a quiz when joining the server, I remember playing on a more serious RP mod, and when you joined a Quiz popped up, you had to get nearly all of it correct to be allowed onto the server, this only came up on your first connect however, and it was more complicated questions, if you could get something like that and make some questions that suited the server/community then it would be pretty good.

If it's DarkRp it's really down to the community, more importantly the admins, if they take the rules seriously and enforce them properly, then there would be no serious problems other than the QQ'ing which did occur over the rules, people would keep quoting variations of rules saying why/why not they couldn't do thing's, like I said, if you gave it a list, and also put the rules in the MOTD, fully explaining every rule then it should be fine.

Also I remember Amit mentioning a 'Showcase' server, looking back I remember that the RP server did get less populated and eventually started dieing towards the end, if you swapped between Rp and Zombie Mod every fortnight then it could work well, some people will instantly disagree with this I'm sure, but in the end there are advantages and disadvantages with each of these servers, it's up to you to decide which you think will work best, in my opinion you should try Rp, if it is a shitstorm then swap to Zm and go from there.

It really didnt get unpopular. It eventually wore off its new server shine, though it barely had a chance too, but it had a steady group of players who played regularly after the masses of people trying the server began to wane. It wasnt like Winter Survival, which had like, 2-4 dedicated players over all. And WS lasted longer than DarkRP did, somehow.

RP started to die out after a lot of people got tired of constant QQ and I'm not overstating, there was a 100% chance you would hear QQ even if you'd just pop in to say hi.

Also the server got real unstable near the end. snapshot overflow and genral lagg

The serious Role Playing mods use a framework you have to buy (I think)

You're supposed to progress through the maps and deal with all sorts of obstacles/challenges to progress further through the map. If a Zombie gets you, you're dead, not one of them.

THIS MOD is something that seems... wait for it.... L-E-G-E-N-D-A-R-Y

Other suggestions like:
- perp, no money for that
- flood mod, no idea but one time I played it it seemed like a one trick pony
- mirror's edge/free runner mod.... again why?
- That zombie one that's old as fuck I can't remember what it's called but still fairly broke.

If you ask me I would still try the zombie survival mod. Pretty popular, wouldn't hurt to give it a go. It's pretty old as well but hell shootin zombies never gets old.

Lets hear some thoughts people!

Dark RP, with 2 changes.

One, its losing factor was the NLR. pain in the ass to follow. i currently play on a server called Noobonic, we should try to at least add CPR mod and the ghosts things. i much more enjoy having to wait 300 seconds as a ghost to respawn with no NLR, rather than an instant spawn and not being able to attempt to retrive my shit. that i paid for. in game.

Two, the fact of the matter is that once you got rich, dark RP was boring, almost pointless. therefore i think money and stats should be dropped NOT RESET on a bi weekly-bi monthly manner. therefore those who are like, "i got 10k yay now i wont play anymore kuz i think im rich." will return to play again and those who are like "i have 100k im super rich" wont be like "WAAH ALL MY MONEY IS GONE GOOBIE SG DARK RP" dey wil lbe like "Ooo now its down to 50K, i take challenge to re earn 100k than earn MOAR!"

I think also think some kind of fretta could be a choice [actually these ideas would better for MG but i need to spit them out] but rather than shit like TTT or Dogfight we do like Shot for Shot, Awp wars, Long toss, Track and Field events [4x1, 4x4, shotput, suchforth] and all kind of fun microgames and such.

I kind of like these ideas, but can you elaborate on the "CPR mod/ghost things/wait 300 seconds to spawn"?

Visit the Noobonic Plauge server, i currently play my dark RP there. they use the CPR mod, its great fun. the declining factor is that everybody has banks [PLEASE DONT DO THIS] so selling shippments and shit is fuckin' easy. you dont have to protect your shit or anything, i like that about here. as well they have gem mod [ANOTHER NO] it makes making money super duper easy, im a 600k inaire in one month, it took the same ammount of time to get 100K in SG, kuz our dark RP is a hard challenge.

i say go with dark rp with the mods forester talks about but not as big a map as noobonic plague because you dont get the same thrill of breaking into someones house because there normally across the map but on the old server there were actually raids and not people mining afk.

Get a group of people together this time and create a legit list of rules for the server if DARKrp is actually voted in on being the next GMOD server.

Fix the mistakes that were made last time around and maybe the server won't be total shit

Not sure if this is still open for discussion,


I have a legitimate copy of PERP3 along with GarrysMod Admin (gmadmin). Purchased it from Skyline of VoltageGaming since they where / are shutting down, they're not sure. I have a full dedicated server with it already running, and would be willing to work something out with the BD's here to let SG use the Dedicated server to run garrysmod servers as they please. Everything is already re-coded to work with vBulletin. Usergroups are read through a fetch_users.php so admins would be read through the vBulletin tables (via usergroup). Gmadmin does the same, and provides any / all intel on users that have joined through the table ip_intel. Currently, a friend of mine and I run the PERP3 server.

Anyone with the authorization to allow / deny this feel free to add me on steam: Steam Community :: ID :: Vinny (http://www.steamcommunity.com/id/iozzia) with information.

Edit: here are the spec's and internet speeds.

Vinny, what you're proposing would have several flaws, the main being it wouldn't be on our dedicated box. We made an agreement (us higherups) that we would not accept separate I.P's as it just created an annoyance via not having access to TCAdmin panel, Remote desktop access and that it was to be shared and accessible through a third party such as yourself and your friend. Besides the obvious security risk, credentials and trust would need to be earned over time here at SG before we would consider such a thing. What I mean by this is that you and your friend would preferably become active here at SG and become trusted admins as such. I'm not saying this is a requirement for this server to then happen, but I see it as the only way.

Also the admin system through perp could be different than how I understand it. Gmod has its own admin system, and along side it we use sourcemod which in turn communicates with sourcebans. The fact we have hundreds of admins/supporters here... I'm not sure if it could all be merged into something feasable.

And finally, I'm always skeptical about people offering a mod that should be private, legally needs to be bought. I don't understand what you would have to gain by giving us a mod for free.

This would be good, though the people who get admin would actually have to admin.

We have a lot of interesting ideas now. I think if it was agreed that DarkRP would be the new server (Scoreboard, bitches) and then a new thread was made for ideas on how we can have it NOT crash and burn this time, we can pull those ideas together in one place that would make the job of Spartan, who would most likely set it all up, much easier.

Well I see what you mean by the trust issues, and I had a feeling that someone would say this. I'm always willing to work something out, if you guys could come to some sort of agreement. The reason we want to let the mod be used by SteamGamers is that we don't really have the people to get it populated, you guys have a user base of 8,500 users on the forums and over 500,000 posts. The reason I have not been active on here since about 2010 is because I usually stick to GarrysMod now, and you guys only offer a TTT server, which is a gamemode I personally don't play very often. The server would be popular which is what we want. Feel free to add me on Steam if you feel we can come to some sort of agreement.

you know what would be a bitchin idea? a TTT server with slot limit of 6. the small games are pretty much anything goes and a lot of fun. epic times are had by all.

Spartan

The reason it's undecided right now is because Paul still wants to switch over to another host which is not done yet. This means the I.P's will change, and I don't know if there will be enough room for this server on that dedi. Priority to the current servers first and then if there is room, other servers. This thread will just be used as a reminder for me in future.

True. But a server where that happened all the time would be meh. Better left to when the server is all but deserted. Thats when the lulz come out....

And Spartan, thank you, now I wont have to start a rebellion.
