Last Thread: **LINK THE LAST THREAD HERE ASSHAT** ok Last time on /ss13g/ - spessmen on a spess station: >new splash screen with cause epileptic seizures >coordinal marmite is still a shirty server >some people don't know bow to play a role?
hey buddy, this public server is too big for the both of us
Jeremiah Sullivan
Their defib change makes a bit of sense Currently defib can instantly brings you back from the veil no matter how long you've died
Ideally it should only be effective for, say, the first 10-15 minutes but it should be readily available everywhere on the station. But I don't think that's balanced or fun
Angel Green
"People said the SMG was rarely viable so we buffed it, by nerfing other weapons. Recently people have been saying the SADAR is underpowered, so i'm thinking we might need to nerf the other spec options."
Adam Brown
>Ideally it should only be effective for, say, the first 10-15 minutes CM already has a "defib timer" where after a few minutes of being dead people can no longer be brought back. It also doesn't have cloning.
Dominic Wright
>It also doesn't have cloning. But it has re-spawning, with a delay, right ? CM isn't my kind of thing anyway, I prefer to help people and I'm unrobust as shit.
By the way, what are the do and don't of security ? I want to try it someday, to get better.
Do >Follow space law >Cuff as soon as possible >Communicate a lot with the rest of the team
Don't >Kill people >Search people on green without a good reason >Walk around with harmbatton in hand >Ever go in close quarters when you have a ranged weapon
And the rest ?
Carter Bennett
sec fun is ruining other people's fun
Nolan Perez
>But it has re-spawning, with a delay, right ? No. Once you die you'll only return to the round as a xeno or a response team.
And trust me, just being a working medic/engineer, being a packrat with ammo or dragging hurt marines with a roller bed for your squad medic helps the marines a lot more than 1 more shooter.
Grayson Hernandez
CM doesn't have respawning unless you're a Xeno, the server is heavily biased towards Xeno players to the point where the admins make a point of keeping the w/r in the xeno's favor.

I vote Deff when I'm about to leave the server just to piss off Boxies like you
Cooper Allen

Christian Stewart
How have you not figured out you're in a timeloop yet?
Jace Williams
Meta pretty much is Box, man.
Jack Turner

Luis Fisher
Hope you cooked up some anal lube at the oil refinery because you're about to get fucked.
Jordan Clark
The game doesn't stop working when the map changes
David Clark
where can i get the fart sound?
Gabriel Davis
I like how the literal only reason to use any other map is to piss off people who like box.
One day, we will have a map that can legitimately compete with box. One day.
Mason Thomas
Get the arrest process down: • block their escape • chat macro explaining that you're arresting them, things are easier if they come along, yada yadda • code green: macro, cuff, chase if they ran • code blue: flash, macro, cuff, taze/chase if they ran • code red: flash, stun, macro, cuff, take/chase if they ran
• note the time once you catch them • drag them to Sec • stash contraband (if they have a history of escaping brig, stash hacking tools etc. too) • tell them what all they did (they *probably* know, but it puts it in the logs so admins don't have to BWOINK you) • tally up their sentence while you do (only count the largest times from anything that happened together) • offer them implants • cell timer, subtract time elapsed since noted time • if it's under 3 minutes, just let them go • update arrest records, note if the were brigged redictivism a best • return contraband (it's on them to dispose of it, or face further arrests)
Remember to update arrest records after searches, too. Being suspicious won't get you brigged, but it *is* a crime.
...and somewhere in all that, you should tell Beepsky when and when not to maul people.
Carter Thomas
>I like how the literal only reason to use any other map is to piss off people who like box. No I vote meta because it's a good map. And so is Bagel but only if it's high pop.
Deff is garbage and anyone who votes for it needs to be hurt in real life.
Cooper Bailey
meta and bagel are legit good maps you're just a fucking autist that probably only played on 24/7 one map only servers for other games
Brandon Robinson
>• return contraband (it's on them to dispose of it, or face further arrests) I'd disagree with that, I think it's best to confiscate it and dispose of it ourselves But I do see how that gets in the way of player's fun
Thanks for tips, now I need to know how to set up marcos.
Matthew Moore
They're good, and my only arguments for them being good revolve around everyone who disagrees with me being a box babby
Xavier Moore
Do: Attempt to be the friendly neighbourhood officer and talk to people SPSPSPSPSPSPSPSPSPSPSPSPS f l a s h b a n g get at least some supplies incase of shit getting fucked h a i l e r allows you to avoid macroing from Don't: Be completely closed off to the idea of killing people, some people are absolute shitters or are a genuine danger to others powergame everything possible like some kind of faggot abandon your brothers in red be afraid of flexing those spacelaw muscles if someone is being a cunt, you can really pile up time as long as you can give the reasoning to admemes if they brigged gets salty also don't leave the shitters the tools needed to break out of their cell

At some point, we have to acknowledge that being used to it is not the problem here.
Carson Perez
All you need to know is there's a couple menus you have to right mouse click the title bar for.
Grayson White
I have never seen contraband returned on purpose, that shit gets left in the evidence locker Rememberwhen processing big crims to check their PDA for messages and ID for extra access
Colton Moore
The hailer to good when people start running. It's bad for explaining what's going on.
Bentley Roberts
People like the maps only two autists screech otherwise
William Miller
You can get rough but, chem abominations aside, they goal is to take people alive.
Noah Hill
Actually, according to the votes, it seems a small group of less than 5 people like the maps, and are constantly screeching that the 30+ people who are not them are the autists.
Jayden Hill
Don't forget members of that small 5 person group admit to only choosing those maps to troll people. So the group of people who ACTUALLY like those maps is even smaller.
Josiah Wilson
...
Adam Sullivan
I like how people are so ass blasted they got corrected they made a meme out of it to try to damage control.
Juan Lopez
There's no damage control, you never see "bagelbabbies" or something they're all box autists who hate change and would probably DDoS the server if box got any changes
Parker Wright
Pools are meanigless, we have about 20-90 players at any given time, which means let's say 200 regular players and you base your assumption on a pool of 35 ?
Alexander Stewart
False flagging.
Map votes show favorite maps, not liked maps. If people could vote for any number of maps, or voted AGAINST maps, you would have a clearer picture.
Kayden Perry
Hailer em to stop, if they run instead of listening you have free license to tase and slap on resisting arrest if they have killed a fellow officer they get the stabbu unless they are good at arrpeee or otherwise redeem themselves / the officer deserved it
Isaiah Bell
Funny how none of those maps ever, ever, ever beat box in a proper vote. Nah, you call 'em bagel trolls, as nobody actually likes bagel. Even now, the only people defending bagel do it because they are busy screeching about how much they hate the playerbase, and how everyone but them is scum.
Nicholas Cooper
Meta station is tolerable. Bagel isnt bad. Box is Box.
Deff needs fucking deleted, the mapper beat with a tar stick, and anyone voting for it needs spaced. The SOLE redeeming feature of deff is cargo centralized. Any other map design featuring that would be automatically better.
Carson Lopez
Even long-lasting pools are meaningless ever since we had people vote rigging that skeleton vote.
Benjamin Carter
but I like bagel
Matthew Taylor
>Box gets 53% of the vote >it's 30 against 5 guys
Aiden Russell
It's pretty strong damage control. I mean, you literally never get to play your map in a normal voting scenario. That is why weighted voting was added in the first place.nobody actually votes for those awful maps.
Jeremiah Murphy
So you're telling me that even with years of coddling and forcing people, other maps STILL can't beat box in an honest vote?
Juan Davis
>ability to vote against maps But then nothing other than box would ever be played.
Christopher Ward
Order an RnD Stock Parts Crate from cargo. When you arrest a scientist, open it with their ID. Build extra cloners in the brig. You now have free reign to kill anyone.
Josiah Gutierrez
Box is ok Meta is ok Bagel is ok Deff is HORRIBLE Never played Packed
Owen Morales
there's a reason deff is only voted for by assistants and people who done for the night.
Thomas Scott
If box is NO ONE's least favorite map, what's wrong with going there?
Hudson Stewart
Packed has a pretty obnoxious medbay. Still better than deff's though.
Nolan Foster
I don't care what gets played? I just state my like for other maps and vote for them. I don't sperg out that my the maps I like don't get played like some people here do when anything not box is picked
Carson Cruz
Box is a fine map. There's just a sizable minority who don't want to play it every single round and I'm on their side.
Blake Brooks
Powergay tb'h
Luis Harris
If you don't care what gets played, you wouldn't be voting. If you didn't sperg out when you play maps you don't like, box babby wouldn't be a term.
Honestly, I just want a map that is legitimately good enough to beat box in votes without having to get pity-rounds on weighted voting.
Carter Parker
I don't sperg out against box though? I just vote for the best map, bagel when I can
Oliver Cooper
>extra cloners are bad
Sebastian Brown
While theoretically possible, the high prevalence of sperging about box babbies and the low numbers of people who actually vote non-box make it extremely unlikely you are being truthful.
Michael Morris
In order of medbays, from best to worst: >Box >Bagel >Taxi >Packed >Meta >Deff
I'd probably prefer Bagel's medbay if I'd played it as much as Box's medbay, but at this point Box is just the vanilla flavour while Bagel is something else I really like that's not vanilla like maybe strawberry I dunno. Meta and Deff are both too spread out. Meta is less spread out (I don't have to run a marathon to get to surgery), but its chemistry is awfully positioned and the (only) entrance is in a small hallway (with chemistry) Reminder that the Meta entrance used to have A FUCKING SHOWER WHOSE IDEA WAS THIS
James Carter
>high prevalence of sperging about box babbies ??? It's the other way around. High prevalence of sperging box babbies and those are responded with boxbabby insults.
Noah Thomas
what scum
Liam Gray
The prevalence of people sperging about their love of box is actually rather low, when compared to the population numbers of people who vote for box. As opposed to the incredibly high prevalence of bitching about box babbies compared to the incredibly low population number of people who vote non-box.
Statistically, it is almost impossible for someone who votes against box to not be sperging out about box babbies.
Wheras with box, if everyone was bitching about maps as much as the guys who vote against box, this thread would already be at post cap.
Jonathan Lewis
Meta and deff medbays are both shit. Purely because they both have the same retarded narrow hallway entrance with the fridge right there causing everything to be a clusterfuck. Deff's is worse for being 2 (TWO) tiles wide, and having those dumb cryo firelocks.
Xavier Bell
can someone post the sprite for the 1000 credit chit?
Jaxson Davis
What I love about Bagel is all the break rooms with Breweries in them. It's comfy to grab a cup of coffee and go do some xenoarching, or take a quick break in the lull between WILD RIDE intensity and just sit back and relax.
Jace Bennett
>chit hehehehe
Easton Miller
Remember the meta shower
Josiah Perry
heehee regina
Anthony Johnson
That was dumb, but I always end up forgiving shit like that, since it's an easy fix. Kinda like packed having shit chemmachines, or Bagel giving to much plasma. Terrible layouts piss me off way more, because I know they won't get fixed. I'm not going to fix them, so I guess I shouldn't complain.
Landon Brown
Box is good but I wish someone would move that damn table already
you know which one
Jaxon Russell

Lesson learned. Next time you're mine.

Vampire rounds were a mistake
David Thomas
I tried doing something by arming Cargonia with the entire armory. I didn't expect N2O to flood the shuttle and the cargo techies to be really really new. Like didn't know how to drop items new. I still had fun with the cargonians, though. Way too many thralls with subverted borgs, there's only so much someone who comes into the round 10 minutes before the round end can do.
