A single screenshot for a way too long round wont do it justice. @Elysian_prince decided to host the Congress Event. To make sure the post is not too long I wont go into the details about the event but will rather describe my perspective. I was made the Security Rep for the Congress. In the first extremely boring vote I suddenly heard the traitor sound go off and saw I got a new objective "Abolish the Congress and make an Oligarchy with Security only" (or something along those lines). I used Grey-Communication to talk to my security buddy to let everyone know of my new found "idea" as I was sitting next to the Engineering Rep. After a while I decided to take matters into my own hand and asked for a meeting with all of Security. It took a few minutes for them to come together in the Security Meeting Room (first time it probably gets used in a long time) and try and convince them how weak and pathetic most of them are while we are strong and should take over the Station with an Oligarchy. After a bit of conformation via ahelps and looc most members were very interested in doing it. We were trying to make plans on how to force the congress to absolve when suddenly we heard a CC announcement saying they are bringing in a "Walker" (Think AT-ST Star Wars). A lot of members were suddenly scared and decided we have to go fast to get to congress before the walker gets there. We rushed the armory got weapons and flashbangs and decided to rush the Congress. The Walker was already in place and while I was let htrough the rest of Security could not make it. I stormed the Congress who were in hte middle of a vote and told them this ends here and now and started throwing flashbangs and trying to arrest people. I did, at that time, not realize I was by myself and no other Security Member made it. I was suddenly in a room full of very flashbanged and very angry Reps who started punching and scratching me. While I held myself for a minute or so and got 1-2 handcuffs on it was not nearly enough to stay alive and do well. I cannot tell what happened outside except for the fact that "security won" and so I was rushed to medbay and cloned. After I was cloned and helped by my Greycurity buddy, I saw the NT Rep/Chancellor walking odwn the hallway. I decided to try and get hostages as was the original plan and tased them as wlel as handcuffed them. The NT rep was able to tell the Captain they were arrested and Katlyn came running to Security. I did not want to start shooting like crazy and ran to the exection room asking for back up. I set the NT Rep in the chair and started aggressively pointing at the sender to tell Katlyn and the BS that I was ready to execute her (note: I am playing a Grey with weak organs and did not have a speech implant so I had to solely rely on telepathy to communicate). I wanted the Captains ID and Katlyn to drop her weapon, she wanted the NT Rep alive. We had quite a stand off that felt very intense but surprisingly enough no one dared to attack the other and Security started gathering outside. Just when I thought I could get Katlyn to completley surrender an announcement came in saying that Republican Reinforcements are on the way to break Security down for rebelling and attacking the Congress. I swiftly took the NT Rep over to Lavaland by myself and started telling her how we are going to take control, while they were trying to talk me out of it and kept saying how Security only wants to murder. Just when I heard the shuttle go back to the station and I heard nothing on Sec-Comms I got worried and tried to take the hostage situation seriously. My plan was to go into Lavaland and get ready to throw the NT rep into the lava when the AI blocked teh door. I went to the Medical room with the NT rep bucklecuffed the the bed and started smashing the window hwen the shuttle came back. The stormtrooper-deathsquad like 4-5 man team came into Lavaland and I was still standing on a table in a tiny room. They rushed the room and I only had one weapon I could rely on -> The amazing Harmbaton. With the first trooper down I was able to grab a "Light Saber" and duel-wielding the mighty harmbaton and saber I gave anyone who came into teh room or close to me a good beating while taking a few hits myself. If I killed any Republican Soldiers or not is beyond my knowledge as I was too busy fighting but I did kill the NT rep (hostage situation guys! Threats can be real) At somepoint I took a lot of hits from one of the carbines which ended up in me going into crit. I grabbed a combat injector one of the troopers dropped and completely injected myself with it. I fought back before I fell down for the first time in the fight. With a precise strike to my neck my big beautiful brain was well-served onto the ground and the fight finally ended (the screenshot is the aftermath). I spend a long time dead only to be rescued by my Greycurity brother in arms JP again. When I was revived (again) I was given first the Med-Rep as a hostage and then the Service Rep as a hostage. I forced the Med-Rep to sign some papers to see Security as the "absolute" authority on the station and when I was about to let them go and make the Service Rep sign the same thing an announcement came through stating that two Reps were being held hostage in the conference room. In panic I took the signed paper and teh service Rep with me only to run into multiple Republican Soldiers and my demise as this time I was not prepared to fight. I want to just say that this is one of the best rounds I have ever had. I understand that some people were not able to be too involved and for some people the round was cut short due to excessive violence but it is a work in progress. I hope a lot of people had fun. The event was not perfect but it was very good in my opinion and from my perspective alone included a lot of long time players that you will always meet over the time you play here. Security was surprisingly robust against the Deathsquad like guys and my perspective is only a small part of the whole story that happened through the station. I hope you guys enjoyed reading this.

My favorite Captain to bully!

I personally find things such as Canisters much worse which I see stolen and used for Hijacking/Greytiding much more than a single slime thing or plasma canister. That being said I find it REALLY disturbing that people keep running around with self-made flame throwers and other weapons (yes that includes spears and baseball bats) that Security and other people do not really care about for some reason. This is why we have the Magistrate Role I think so they can determine if these items were used within "bad" reason. My vote goes for making it situational as these things often do not do anything by themselves unless you combine it with something else.

Punching an IPC in the groin should make their heads fall off. Its only realistic as they are toasters. While I would appreciate the detail in this I think it sounds too difficult to implement and its not something people can really concentrate on in a fight especially where disarming is better than punching someone.

how do I delete someone elses post?

Spacenet would like to know your location! Robust Single IPCs in your area would like to meet you! (Our advertisement algorithm has been adjusted for your recent searches!)

I noticed that with higher ping sometimes it will even let you briefly look into other rooms. Could even see a fake wall or so like I had mesons on, but that only happened when something was downloading in the background. The "shake" or "wobble" is much more extreme in that case, but it sounds similar to what I experienced.

quick now. 6

So I was an IPC traitor and decided to go roundstart head on and rushed my objective (RD armor) with an emag. I was very quickly set to arrest and got into gateway which was the russian station. I decided to mess around and take some stuff including a Security outfit. I bought some other things including Agent ID card and chameleon set. I couldnt really pass as a Sec Officer due to lack of access + mindshield so I decided to instead go as a civilian and become the voice of god with a detomatrix. I used this to blow up people like @Rebel0 for not getting enough dates and defying "god", a warden that crime stacked and people that insulted "god" in a hopefully funny RP way. When I was out of cartridges I gave some secure information to the station as I also bought a syndicate encryption key by that point but got bored and didnt really know what to do. I wandered around and realized the fucking ERT shuttle was there unguarded. I used the emag to go to CC. I could not do anything special there... until I remembered that emags can be used on blast door thingies and decided to open everything. The armory was guarded by turrets and the mechs are emag-proof so I was not able to get into them, but I did manage to make my way to the BSA room. I realized ghosts were spooking me at that point and I ahelped if I can use the BSA but I was not given permission so I decided to wait until the round ended. Suddenly (I assume the admins finally noticed) the AI ALICE started talking to me. I was very surprised and had a very dumb answer at first. The AI was then saying it was downloading translation software as it did not understand me. I quickly changed my ID to Nanotrasen Admiral and when asked again I said I was the new CC intern to which the AI responded that it now recognizes my ID (Thanks a lot admins!). Also where the picture is from. In the end I emagged all the airlocks so people coudlnt leave the shuttle too early and went back to the BSA. I didnt realize there were so many options and it took me sometime before I found the right thing to BSA. I almost never do mass murder things after the round ends but given the opportunity I decided to use it this time. So in short I broke into CC, CC now has an IPC NT Admiral Intern called Kornwall that does not exist and I am probably one of the few players that managed to break into CC and not get killed as well as use the BSA. This was immensely fun to do and I had a real rush going into CC.

*stun batons @MysticLiger* what are you gonna do? Ban me? Also, THREE

@MysticLiger ill steal your berett for that... again! 2

lets break more stereotypes and lack of rules! Ill just go again! 50000

Lets just start adding more zeros so that we are faster at this. Anyway.. 50

nice! I really like seeing shitcurity in action. The only thing misisng is maybe AI and Borg Artworks

Should be top of the wiki for all the people who have never played cult before to teach it to them.

Lavaland stuff is completely unbalanced with the rest of the station items. In my opinion it is extremely overpowered that suddenly someone can even just pull out a katana and start hacking away if they are an antag or a target of an antag. I do not think its really fun and it also makes Gateway pointless as the items you can find in the Gateway are a joke compared to lavaland. In addition resources seem to be really bi-polar. Either all the miners die (which has become rarer) and so there are no resources or what recently has happened with 8 or so people going miner and most of them knowing what they are doing is that resources become abundant and it has a negative affect on any antags anyway. The last times I have seen xenos or terrors at least 2 gygaxes or durands have been ready to crush them within minutes. The fact that there is a mech every round now almost guaranteed for security really tilts the favor against antags and I barely seen multiple-objective vampire/clings succeed at their objectives if they get found out.

As a rather "new" player, what were the issues in the past?

These are so nice. Also they are always so friendly. Do you have anything a little darker as well?

General Security Problem. There have been so many field executions lately that borgs even ignore the Crewsimov thing and will harmbaton even if your ID is not terminated. I saw an unpowered Vampires brain get cut out like 15 minutes into the round yesterday so do not expect too much from Security at the moment.

The sec borg 100% does not need a buff. They are strong already and if illegals are researched you get a lethal option. The sec borg is stronger than a normal officer in almost every regard if you ignore speed & lack of hands.

To be fair we do not even have to code it in. If there is an admin online they could just replace the existing goal with something special as well, just for fun. I know a lot of engineers/CEs have actually stopped playing that department just because the goals are too repetetive

Borers as antags does not sound very good to me. It would be a constant struggle of controlling a person and them taking control back. But yes they are very boring at the moment. Some smaller objectives that are abductor like would be fun, even such things as send an assfax to CC or steal as many shoes as possible.

I used to play a lot of security and its the only department where sometimes if you dont follow SoP you will get shit for it. Sometimes Space Law is hard to understand as well. In general the crew hates security as a lot can get you arrested and locked you away for part of the round. For example if someone takes the Nuke from the Vault it is actually considered Grand Theft, even if the item does not appear on the Grand Theft Page. I was like 500 hours in at that point with most of my time in Security and I had to mentor help it, always use it if you are unsure. To go back to your example try and see it from a RP perspective as well. Why does crew member from X department have c4 on them? This is something Station changing and you are low in the hierarchy, honestly ask the highest authority what the sentence should be.
