    Since I don't have permission to use the search button I figured I'd post a thread myself.

    I've been playing the LiquidRP gamemode for a while and I want to change it up a little bit, can anyone tell me a better roleplay gamemode that most of facepunches gmod roleplayers play? From what I've heard you guys dislike darkrp.

    I've only played DarkRP.

    What can I say, it's fun with the right people.

    - Semi-Serious and Lite RP's is Cops N' Robbers which prolongs over the period of 2-3 Hours.
    - 'Serious RP' is Cops N' Robbers which prolongs over months and you'll usually end up cybering with some sexually deprived moderator to get anywhere.

    I may be coming off harsh, but the entire 'roleplay' community is a goddamn joke.

    CityRP

    Well in our communities case, its basically a Semi-Serious Gamemode and works magic.

    Personally, DarkRP was fun in the good ole' days, having been an admin on a popular server i was witness to endless counts of RDM, and constant rule breaking, but that was the fun of it. All i had to do was whip out the ban hammer, and man i sure pulled a muscle or two.

    But nowadays, if you are interested in a fun yet more resource managing game mode, i recommend CityRP.

    City RP isn't resource managing... It's farm contra, shoot those which try to take contra, eat food. Rinse, wash, and repeat.

    Edited:

    It's not a matter of the gamemode, the players are the problem.
    But why are the players acting up? Maybe it's because the gamemode instills that being a 'minge' gets you places and actual RP will negatively effect you in the long run. You can't always blame the players, but for damn sure you can blame the developers for being lazy.

    Joey, you are right when you cut open the actual game mode and look at it on each level, you are basing it on a server which hosts it in a certain way, but the thing is that it is customizable and expandable, unlike DarkRP.

    Obviously the decisions of the owners/staff of the server contradict the direction in which the game mode is layed out. In the case you are speaking of, yes it is based around the same fundamentals of money printers / weed plants.

    When Gmod 13 Comes out, it would be foolish to not assume that future gamemodes will arise that are far more superior.

    Edited:
    Most RP Game modes are based on having the set objective to earn the most money and have the most of this and that, which in reality, is how life is. Some people achieve it, some people do not, and some others find exploits or ways to bypass things to have an advantage.

    Cannot wait for a certain custom game mode to come out, to perhaps see a change in this pattern.

    It doesn't quite matter what gamemode you're using as long as you're RPing with friends.

    Friends is the most important thing. If you can make friends, do so.

    But just going into a random server as a lone wolf is suicide unless you're a rather social animal.

    I would go with a good OpenAura, preferably Severance. Something other than the regular same fuckin' thing over and over again like HL2RP.

    DTRP, which is a new gamemode. The only problem is that it has allot of downloads which discourages people from waiting to get in.

    209.222.89.98:27035 - is the only server that runs it.

    I just don't understand how killing one person you don't like is RDM. I would expect RDM to be killing everyone guns blazing.

    You're killing the person for OOC reasons, and you're most likely not roleplaying the killing out. If you just walk up to some guy and shoot him because you don't like him, it's RDM. If you however had a valid IC reason to want to kill this guy, and roleplay out you shooting him (giving him some time to react and such), it's not RDM.

    well, my "gangster quota" said to kill the homeless, so I killed a hobo because he was pickpocketing me.

    And this is why RDM is bullshit.

    How isn't that advertising your own community? You could just have said the gamemode name, instead of posting your own server there.

    I love DarkRP, only reason though is because I rarely roleplay and shit like that. It's fun to go into a gun store and fuck everything up, you know warrant the person and break all their props for "illegal gun selling". Other stuff like robbing people (anyone you see on the streets). When I do it, it's like "Gimme ur muhfucken bills 3.2.1. boom u dead nigs" then they like RDMMMMMM then i like nuhuhhhhh

    Seriously though, there's only so many server you can get banned from. Most of them don't even perma even.

    I enjoy both DarkRP and HL2RP. It's very hard to find a good DarkRP server where people are actually role playing. This is why HL2RP is probably my top favorite just because you can actually find decent role players.
