Fox Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 (edited) So, i have had this idea for a while, and i think it could really work. so, in Starwars, ISB or navy give out missions to troopers or specialized regs to complete and do some objective. so, we cant do this on the server, without changing map, plus, we only want one reg, not the server. so, what if we added more rp to isb or navy, they can come up with some sort of mission. Eg, goto base and clear it of rebels. your reg gets into a ship and flys out of the ship. then, commander of the reg creates one of those single player, 10 player lobby games?. The ones where you just invite your mates and muck around in sandbox. Exept you get your reg to join, follow the isb order of the mission and be an event master for the mission.eg, spawn rebels and stuff. Your reg completes the mission and you all fly home. You report to ISB about the success or failure of the mission, they or you write up some report and banger! More shooting and pew pews for troopers, and more rp for isb! this could be done for spec ops regs, that way they can be used as spec ops regs. can also be done for any reg really. and maybe vader could give tasks aswell, i know people ask him alot, maybe this can get people off his back. so, ISB, MHC, Navy, Even Sith Lords. Get creative. Start thinking of cool missions troopers can fly off and do. im tired and thought i should write this up. Night.

Kestoren Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Hmm, So would an ISB member or Navy member swap over per say to that Singleplayer/mini-lobby and set up before your swap jumps over? And it would be an awesome idea, and maybe like an ISB operative or whomever can stay and just watch their progress (See how they go) and maybe even the ISB operative can change up the mission, work the commander on an RP level maybe have them retreat etc? Or maybe even have it so it can have up to 2 regiments (Not more than 2 of course) And maybe even have it during events, so like maybe they need to go to a different place and work together on a level where they need Teamspeak, Like maybe taking down a generator or something or board an enemy ship or something and the main force has to hold out against enemies until the detachment finishes their mission or something? (Just a few ideas) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Just a few ideas) On that.. It'd be a real bitch to rejoin though and might prove harder for those that have some decently long loading times to the original Imperial Server and the other server would perhaps require a password. (I'm sure Wolf can try seeing if the Imperial Funds can fund the secondary server, as it'd add massively to the server) Other than that.+1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sentry Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 +1, This could also give users, (or whoever) a great chance to advance on how they handle objectives, so if a user was planning to tryout for EM with no experience, this would be a great start.

pinejack Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 The issue with this would be that the host of the 'mini-lobby' would need to ONLY have the server's content installed/enabled otherwise other users will download their crap when they join (other addons). Along with this, the host would need to make sure that he/she has really good internet to be able to host the game without lag and without having people crashing.

Puppy Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I like the idea but there can be some difficulties with this such as what Pinejack said, if the host had too many addons it would take a while to load if you had bad internet it would basically lag the server. Of course, this is an amazing idea but the little problems can turn out to be big problems in the end. Kind regards, Puppy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Find someone in the reg with low amount of addons, the game master doesnt need to be the host. On the off chance that everyone in the reg has a million addons find someone else outside of it. Most people have good internet, so finding a host with nice ping is easy. I have played singleplayer lobbys with like 8 people and used nukes and stuff to test out how much it can take. Its pretty good. Im fairly certain this will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kix Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Perhaps a secondary server, 32 slots. Regiments have to book the server for the event in advance. Password changed every event. Mission reports must be made and information placed in Google drive(no edit access) Classified information can be encrypted and only isb/ need to know personale know the key. Information put in drive in order to involve the community, otherwise it will become a small mingey server with no real connection to RP. Standard imperial gaming content pack. Perhaps a trial period of 1 month to see if the idea takes off? I am happy to assist with implementation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
