Title: My knowledge about Gmod Roleplay
Post by: [TTPN] ShadowMoon on October 03, 2012, 03:40:04 AM

So... basically..
I joined a role play server, starting as a Citizen, walk around, finding for houses, bought a money machine, got taken away by police, got to spawn point, got spawn killed by a random Citizen/Police for 10+ times, he got kicked, I walk around, bought another money machine thingy, bought weapons near subway, get out, after around 20 minutes, got back to the place, got "robbed" by police officer, walk away, go to underground and explore, found bullet machine thingy, got bullets for my weapon, explore around again, got overrun by vehicles, change job to Mayor bodyguard, protecting him down a very tall building, got assaulted by random people (not sure Citizen or Police), repeatedly killed by them.... and quit.

So.. I don't really understand what's the objective of the game and what I'm suppose to do... Help?

RP was actually the real reason I bought Garry's Mod. Although I wasn't all that great at wire (to make the gun machines and traps), I still really enjoyed playing it and I got a lot of memories from it.

Mainly, I enjoyed being a thief. The adrenaline you get when you're breaking into someone's house and every once and awhile finding a huge prize inside. Man.

The RPing experience greatly depends on the people who are controlling the server. If they're the "Donate $10 to become admin" kind, then I wouldn't bother too much with them.

Something I've been wanting to do, but haven't quite gotten around to doing, was creating a gambling game on there. Basically, it's a wheel of fortune. You wire up a wheel with different colors and have it so it stops spinning when someone stops pushing a button. Once you make it, you have people bet money (there can be a limit if you want) and if they win, they get double. Most of the time you win, but if you lose and don't have the money to pay them their prize, you can always leave (although i wouldn't recommend that. Bad for business y'know).

The main thing really though is get a room (or house) and protect it as much as you can without breaking the rules. Be as clever and deceiving as possible. By this I mean make some walls invisible (if the server allows) so that you have to jump and crouch your way around. Make it so you have two doors, one that leads to a dead end, and another that leads to your place. Put camera's up front so you always have eyes on your doors. Once you're sure you're fairly secure, start banking in money machines. If you have the right job, you could also sell things!

I would suggest building a small place (Small == Less noticeable), preferably somewhere that's not visited so often.

Don't fuck up.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

No seriously, learn the map and where the hot spots are. If someone shoots you, shoot them back. If they look suspicious (gangster,hitman) kill them. As for money printers, go to a hiddenarea. Spend time exploring everywhere and survey areas before you attack or settle in them. Never waste your cash on big guns and drugs. Make sure you are never seen, you will always fuck up if your friend prances to your hideout followed by 3 others. Convince people of your alliance, then double cross them. Stuff like that works.

As Axule posted, if it advertises pay-for-admin shit, leave and never join back. Also, if you hear an admin whose voice hasn't deepened yet, leave. I've been perma'd from a few servers just because I assassinated the 10 year old admin.

I used to love playing on RP but then I realized I fucked over it is on most servers. Just 10 year old minges that think they have every right to kill you for no reason. I just liked to stick to the outside of the map or stay underground to prevent getting killed. But some servers that have the really nice map, the one where you can rob the bank, tends to have less RDMing in my experience. It's also more fun.

I became one of the cops and put money machines in the police station Lol Or best yet just become the mayor and put them in your office and fire anyone that comes to search your office

Mostly you should join serious RP servers or age restricted ones. They are more serious and not full of noobs.

d3vine RP is the best. You can buy mod for $20 for 30 days but its really really restrictive compared to actual admin.

All those months I spent raging at my old shit computer for crashing at random times, right when I was about to do something cool in DarkRP.

You've obviously never played with a serious RP.
Besides, even an RP server that is run by kids is fun when you stoop down to their level.

Not when you build a wire elevator/balloon that travels all across the city and you charge people for rides.

I used to be a super admin on Sammy Servers DarkRP. I would either play as a hobo lord, or a gun dealer, so I always had quite a lot of money.
it used to be so much fucking fun, and everything was great,
until Cherry decided to make admin a monthly payment.


I came back on a couple months ago to see that things had gotten 10x shittier than before. And I got raided so much I wanted to kill myself.

I wanted to crai evri tiem.
