RP servers
will ff bring back rp servers to team fortress? my brother and me used to play on rp servers for quite a few years. I would be [DT]Smike and he would be [DT]Nicholas. Smike was the "slow" but ill tempered HW guy that Nicholas took under his wing. Nicholas played as a scout, and we had many a enjoyable session. Usually we would spend a little time on a new server explaining everyone the rules, and some would occasional suggest alternative game modes, but all in all we percieved it as a great success.
Will ff encourage more of this immersive playstyle or will it be mindless milling about and firing at everything? |

hey you can be the princess in the tower, and i can serenade you with my.... physics gun?
sorry, but this game is an FPS mate. it's like driving a car into a river to see if it can float like a boat.. like beetle said, feel free to set your own RP server up, but be prepared to be ridiculed. |

Can't say in my 9 years of playing Fortress games I've ever seen this.

You would have more time for ceremonies for instance, greeting and taunting before and between jousts. Normal fortress play is very hectic, with rushing and concing and whatnot. A RP gamemode could be an idea. When server settings where to rp, there would be much longer spaces between rounds to allow for chatting and rp. Modifiers to slow it down to be able to hail concers and such. |

Lmao when did TFC/TF ever have role-play? I sure as hell didn't know. I know that most people used to RP oh AHL or TS but TF/TFC? Hmm.

Surely RPing on a TFC server involves acting like a complete cunt all the time? I think there's enough of that already.
