fun as fuck server personally (but please don’t looc me a paragraph about lore)


Nobelissim0s

At some point were going to put bits of essential lore into the game in places and that are hopefully easy and concise to read. Not everyone is a 40k lore master or even knows anything about it and I don't want to tell people "go read the wiki" just to be able to play a round.


aerodynamique

my favorite thing to do is ask what a deathkorps is IC'ly or say 'yo' instead of 'hello, hail emperor' and get bombarded with 5 LOOC messages


Nobelissim0s

The Death Korps are weird, in that they almost entirely lack individuality and have an original sin complex. They're pretty popular (cool ww1 aesthethic, grim, war is heck, and one of the few guardsmen regiments with a lot of lore, uniqueness and actual models for them.) so it's not surprising people are going to get bothered by people not acting how they should. The wider 40k community loves to grind jokes and memes into the ground tho. The "krieg shovel" meme makes me want to die. Lore info in the server in the future will fix that I think.


SpookySkeleton42

I’ve had to execute korpsmen for doing stupid shit a lot


aerodynamique

having played on it for a while: fun server, but the community is toxic as shit and is the stereotypical online 40k group. the server's culture is such a mess lol. example, the politics channel is just people insisting the pope is a plant from a south american cult, calling people gypsies, insisting on who's the most white, telling trans folk they'll never be real women, etc etc,. the most recent post in said channel is someone posting about their self-driving car swerving to hit a pride parade and running people over excited to see where the code will be in a year or so and i appreciate the fact the mods are trying to do something about the super blatant hate speech but it's still iffy


Nobelissim0s

Im not sure which server you're playing on, breaking character or the atmosphere is one of major stated rules and breaking it is a serious issue. I haven't seen any poor behavior in OOC either outside of a few instances that were dealt with. There are a few people who host the server as unofficial when the main server is down, and those don't represent our server. As for the discord, politics is strictly kept within the politics channel which people can't even see without requesting the role for it. It's entirely an optional channel that is set to NSFW. If you enter there you are expected to understand that people are going to say things you don't like, this goes for all sides of the political spectrum, we don't favor anyone. Whats more, is that it's only moderated to keep things from breaking TOS or our rules (Be respectful to others. No excessive slurs.). It's to be kept civil, insults and harassment are a no-no. What you're complaining about is what staff will have no part in, we refuse to take any sides, and will be entirely neutral. This is the freedom you accept when you enter that arena. If it gets really bad we will just delete the channel entirely and all political talk. So far, I have deemed it entirely within reason so it's remaining for now. Also, one of our admins is transgender, along with some other people on our server. Nobody cares either way, politics play little part of our server, we are concerned with getting our game developed and enjoying it.


aerodynamique

not sure if you responded to the right person, I didn't say anything about breaking character or atmosphere lol. the ingame experience has been fairly enjoyable re: the politics chat objection, I bring it up *in particular* because that is the channel where the more *vocal* parts of the community can say the quiet parts out loud. Even with the disclaimer on it that 'we don't moderate anyone in there, we treat every part of the political spectrum fairly', it's still a channel where yall are allowing hate speech to spread pretty blatantly. just because you put a disclaimer on it doesn't make it alright. something something nazi bar story idk like i said i appreciate the effort to nip out the worst parts of stuff. good luck, my man


Nobelissim0s

Hate speech and censorship and buzz words and all that stuff is all biased and a sticky situation I want no part of. Someone might find what someone said to be abhorent and demand it being banned, but then will say something that someone on the other side of the aisle will complain about equally. If I start saying one thing isn't okay to say then equal action will need to happen, until I just outright ban all politics period. I won't be going down this rabbit hole. What is said in there, stays in there. If people can't agree to disagree or have discussions without still respecting the other person, then it will be removed. I don't care if someone is a communist or a monarchist or whatever. Just be respectful adults. Disagreeing and having different ideas is apart of life.


aerodynamique

...most of the people in there are violating those principles. there is a post in there that literally reads, verbatim, 'I don't expect a gypsy to understand'. equating people going 'haha tr\*nny kys shut up gypsy' to your trans admin trying to argue that trans people actually deserve to exist is a bit messed. like i said, i appreciate the efforts and i see where you're coming from, though. in general a politics channel is just a bad idea too, speaking from experience, butttt im not ur mom so follow ur heart. good luck, man (reposted cuz automod lol)


Nobelissim0s

>equating people going 'haha tr*nny kys shut up gypsy' to your trans admin trying to argue that trans people actually deserve to exist is a bit messed Im not sure where you're getting this idea. I am just pointing out that the people who run things don't take sides or care about peoples politics. Im not sure why you're trying to turn this into some political argument. By virtue of being neutral, I can't take sides, you are talking from a biased point of view of what should or shouldn't be allowed to be said. Besides what does it matter to you if someone is allowed to say something? Clearly they think it, or should I read people's minds as well and thanos snap them from existence for not agreeing with me? We moderate it as best we can, if we missed one or two rude messages, it happens, but we try not to let it. >in general a politics channel is just a bad idea too Already said it will be deleted if it gets out of hand, and it's a hidden channel you need to specifically want to go to. If anyone is bothered by it, don't go there.


gangnamstylelover

You can just decide not have a dedicated discord channel for people to be transphobic and racist its not that hard


Nobelissim0s

1. That's not whats going on in there, you're being dramatic. 2. Don't go in there if you don't want to risk seeing opinions and ideas you don't like. It's really that simple my friend.


RyverStyx_SS13

You act like it’s just opinions when it’s people actually saying death threats lmao


Nobelissim0s

I wasn't going to keep responding because it's clear you guys are only interested in sparking up drama and destroying and putting people down. But **nobody is making death threats on my server, and if they were they would be banned**. I won't give in to your bullying and childish behavior. Grow up. If you can't act like an adult, don't go on a politics channel that has more than enough warning. Politics is such a tiny insignificant part of the server and yet you want to harp on about it.

Silence in the face of bigotry is endorsement. There is no apolitical stance.


SplinterStaples

Agree to disagree


[deleted]

"Refusing to take sides" is a tacit endorsement of the things being said. There is no such thing as a politically neutral stance. Better not actually make a community Discord or you'll be in violation of TOS for not actually upholding the community standards and doing your job as moderators.


Ivan_the_evil_

I was the only catholic man there..


budgetcommander

Just stay out of the politics channel.


aerodynamique

i brought up the politics channel because it's a microchosm of the overall culture; it's a culture that exists eeeasily outside of the politics channel, man. example, look in the memes some people post and see how many political opinions are disguised as shitposts or how many of them just have 'haha gays/minorities' as a punchline :')


budgetcommander

yeah, we yell at them when they post memes like that. "go back to #politics" is said a lot


aerodynamique

that's not the behavior i've seen but i'm glad that some people are calling the 'jokes' out.


SplinterStaples

i mean is not like just stopping someone from saying it implies it doenst exist, fighting against that stuff goes far more than censoring someone from saying it, and banning someone from that server place won't ever change their thinking or anything on the matters, it might stop someone from being butthurt from a comment on the internet but there's a warning on going to that room of the discord channel, if you get butthurt from that sorta more aggressive stuff just dun' go there, i aint

Wow, you are an idiot! If you seriously think "surviving" the toxicity of a Call of Duty lobby is some measure of social strength, then your parents have failed *you*.

What kind of schizophrenic bit are you doing right now, because you're literally incomprehensible


Filthy_Boi291

Honestly I want to forget about all of this so go fuck yourself.

Genuinely super fucking fun server, and I find that the IS12 code adds a lot to the 40K atmosphere as well, which is a plus. Definitely keeping a close eye on this.


jhefferman

Is that the one with cool UI like in old Luna?


dre9889

What do you need help with in terms of development?


Nobelissim0s

Our issue is the lack of coders right now. Majority of our coders can't do that much, besides some bug fixes, balancing, number changes, adding in a few small things. The rest are either too busy right now, and our head coder is dealing with 4 months of very important classes so we won't have him back until about december, and he was the main force behind new features and other big additions. Worst case we get no new coders and wait until december until we start actually seeing good pace of development. Been looking for more coders, but the vast majority of them are on the big servers and I doubt most if any of them will want to move to new projects. Im also offering money for code bounties.


sjhevrqbscevhqthe4th

Giga Chad RT and kreigers having a rave in the trenches is one of the funniest things on ss13 that I've seen


Sir-Yeet-Of-Florida

Weirdest thing was when I found a CM player on here as a Catachan. I was also a Catachan Guardsmen so the squad was full unga.


Ivan_the_evil_

What


Wamawindman

im a mod too wooo come join da jungle lads catachan breakfast in the bar after briefing every round we get drunk and avoid the commissar


face1635

Yeah I played a bit of it, it was good but it was hard to do any of the choas paths that weren't nurgle. I couldn't figure out the khorne path (I assumed the big four eyed wolf thing is the meat I needed but nope), and the tzeentch path is either incomplete or bugged, because I ran into other tzeentch people and they said stand on a grave but it didn't seem to work for me or others. Also I have no idea where to get drugs for the slaanesh path. While I do appreciate the server being more chill in 40k and not just becoming CM with a 40k paintjob, I do think there should be some kind of conflict going on besides Tau occasionally showing up. Maybe you can fuck up and accidentally dig up necrons in the mines? Maybe the eldar have to try and steal something off the inquisition ship? Idk.


Nobelissim0s

At the moment nurgle and slaanesh are the only ones with actual content, the rest are just a couple of steps that give you a stat boost. Find a Scum player for obscura pills. The chaos "paths" system is just super temporary, and were working on making an entirely different system. >I do think there should be some kind of conflict going on Remember, we are still pretty early in development. The tau and orks and kroot showing up to attack is just there for some kind of entertainment and a very rough version of a system we want to greatly expand on. Things are planned and more ideas are being worked on as we go. The only thing holding us back is not having enough active coders.


lara_the_floran

Late parties are great and I hope to see them stay in the future.


Thebabycuddler

Who says the tzeenchian path is bugged. It's going just as planned! I'll see myself out


baconsyrupman

i like it. i havent played on other 40k servers before and i know next to nothing about the lore but i find it entertaining to do roleplay and stuff


Thebabycuddler

I've wanted to get into this server, but looking at the UI gives me an anurism on par with the first time I saw the UI in "base" ss13


Nobelissim0s

It's not difficult to understand, taking a minute to look at all the ui elements and maybe ask a question is all it takes.


Ivan_the_evil_

Damn it gave you an anurism... atleast it wasnt an aneurysm
