I will be following this thread very closely. I absolutely love Larp and Roleplay so if this becomes a thing, I doubt I'd find much time to do anything else in ED.

Should probably finish the engineering grind beforehand for that reason. :p

You know, if it weren't for the vast advantages granted by engineering I'd even go so far as to propose that roleplay mechanically combat should be done by piloting in game, Larp style.
You wanna be a crack pilot? Be a crack pilot.

Unfortunately the playing ground isn't as even as it once was anymore.

This is kinda my goal. rules will be in place to prevent power gaming. If people plan on giving "expert" skills to their, character, their character should have the stats to back it up.

ie. You're not a crack combat pilot with the rank of Competent or Mostly Harmless. LOL

Okay, so had a rough week/weekend, and landed myself in the hospital, so work had been slow going for a bit. However, I did get a LOT of work done on the Teamspeak Server (immersive voice communications) and the Discord Server. I will be spending time this weekend working on it with some others who have graciously volunteered their time to help me (I also run a Squadron, so thankfully I have a lot of free time LOL). We'll be working on the RP Rules and Guidelines for the community, and then I have a few more things to do, but we are several more steps closer to opening to the public.

Hi everybody,
just found the thread and like the idea very much.
I play ED since a few months, but was addicted to Elite back then when it was on C64 in the 80s! Played Frontier, too, and am so happy to be back in this universe. Roleplaying would be a nice additional treat.
Staying tuned...

Edit: Just wondering: Will roleplay over voice interfere with HCS voicepacks? Guess I need to configure it for push-to-talk then...

Whatever you want! I myself run a PMF that is a aerospace defense contractor and anti-xeno activist.

Not if you have key binds! :D
We'll have teamspeak set up utilizing RadioFX, which will in turn make voice comms sound like a radio (and allowing you to converse with more than one person at a time, or multiple wings at a time if you have a whisper group).

The roleplay will be text / voice / in-game voice (& TS3)

Sign me in and invitate me in your discord. I've been in roleplay stuff since 2014, so I'll be glad to finally able to actually roleplay in elite.

I'm getting there. Once I have everything set up and ready, then I will post an invite link in the forums. I am trying to make the rules easy to understand and making the process easy enough that people can just jump right in after reading the rules! :D

I have a big experience in roleplay stuff. Used to be moderator on few projects in arma 3. I'm in the army currently so I won't be able to help you out with gameplay in-game, but I can gladly help you out with rules and features.

Yes, join the Drew Wagar group. At this point, much else may or may not prove redundant. Either way, I'd like to see where this goes.

I've been trying. Drew only responded to my initial message saying he was interested in being involved. Hasn't been much word from him after that. So for the time being, I will probably be hosting the PG that will be used.

If everything goes as planned this week (for the most part), I will be looking at opening the role-play community next weekend, Saturday, February 13th, 3307 at approximately 1200 EST (1700 UTC).

o7 Commanders! I hope to see you all there.

Closer to the opening date, I will post a new thread with all of the information to join the new community. Better get those back stories ready! :D

Stopped reading, sorry OP.

Well, apparently, you just read what you wanted and stopped there. We also have people that play in open. See, not all players like to play in open, and we would like to be as inclusive as possible, so we included a PG for those that wish to only to PvE and mutually agreed PVP.

But that's okay, if the community isn't for you, it isn't for you, I'm sure we'll get along just fine without you!

o7 and fly safe Commander!
