Last time on /ss13g/ - spessmen on a spess station: >probably someone complaining about bans >probably someone complaining about players >probably someone complaining about rounds
Reminder that /ss13g/'s official metagroup for spires is on the CHINESE faction
Joshua Gray
I'm having fun in my autism corner.
I am prettying up the world.
Colton Powell
tfw no jeanne caldwell gf
Nathaniel Murphy
>Raiders
Grayson Flores
the only thing worse than a traitor playing objectives only is raiders playing objectives only
You're a professional gypsie raider squad, come up with some fun gimmicks and do something exciting, don't be so hasty to smash that no fun allowed button.
David Smith
>rubber ducky as objective Sides out of orbit
Jonathan Scott
So did the raiders win or lose? I lagged out and didn't get the summary.
Brayden Gonzalez
>tfw you get a lucky disarm and pitch your attacker out an airlock and survive to die another day during round end shenanigans it's 20 minutes later and i'm still patting myself on the back for that
Leo Ward
>tfw they steal the singularity >Straight up take the singularity parts and load it on their shuttle >tfw this will never happen
William Hill
RUBBER DORKCNY AS AN OBJECTIVE HIGH RISK ITEMS ONLY FOR THEFT THEIFS WHEN?
Michael Morgan
Ducks seem pretty high risk. I've seen them possess up to ten people in the bar and cause them to explode.
Tyler Scott
We won. We won so hard.
Blake White
No one won that round.
Jacob Murphy
>I've seen them possess up to ten people in the bar and cause them to explode. I seen that too. Whats up with that anyway? is it some sort of easteregg?
Matthew Rivera
Team antags are COMPLETELY FUCKING DIFFERENT from solo antags
Daniel Butler
Only if you actively work against each other. If you all decide on a fun gimmick you can do it as you please. No one has fun when 5 players steal a duck and end the round ASAP.
Hudson Bailey
Dude, team antags routinely can't even pull off non-gimmicks Especially because it's us vs them, if you do a clown ops gimmick you WILL get fucking curbstomped, unlike a clown ling or something. Team antags are a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THING from solo antags.
James Wilson
Did everyone stop playing spire already
Josiah Jackson
>2562 >walk into bar >battle of lil slugger starts playing
Logan Peterson
Theres three of us walking around trying to sell rocks to people right now, Are you aztec?
David Garcia

Elijah Ortiz
I am making more sparkles.
Carson Smith
No I am chinese
Jonathan Stewart
i've been gone for about a month
what the fuck is spires of agatha
Sebastian Flores
flavor of the next 2 days
Justin Baker
As an antag I don't actually have to give a shit about my objective, right? I can just go around filling fire extinguishers with welder fuel or replacing emergency oxygen tanks with Nitrogen?
Jack Morgan
Well, yeah. Basically. Your objective is just gravy.
Try to make it interesting and fun, though.
Justin Roberts
ye, at least on vg objectives are just there for whatever reason, its always much more fun to do something than "lets grab X and Y and kill that person and call shuttle coz balids secured"
Henry Martin
flavor of the past few hours, nobody is playing it anymore
Lucas Young
If you wanna go for your objective then go for it If you don't then don't
Jeremiah Baker
For solo antags yes, for team antags no
Lucas Parker
Will my full description show up for other players? I typed up 2 paragraphs
Zachary Brooks
how do I fix this chat window
John Wood
downgrade BYOND :^)
John Allen
>tfw farmer and blacksmith is there anything comfier bros? Gehenna is pretty good if you steer alway from the weirdos, the swamp is nice and remminds me of the swamp camp from gothic
Jonathan Richardson
use the standalone
Angel Butler
the hell is this spire stuff? Why are people talking about it here?
Andrew Hughes
I've been doing blacksmith and runescribing.
It's just comfy and exploration, because I'm constantly hunting after metals.
I don't even know what to spend money on.
Evan Perry
Every few months the thread turns into BYOND games general for 2 days. Then it goes away to never ever return.
Asher Cooper
make your own general, nerds
Henry Roberts
i like to pay newbies and young adventurers to work on my farm as a "honest work" them after they spend their entire energy/stamina plowing the field i just give them 75~100 coins or something, while in the end i'm getting way more money selling the crops
Leo Lee
I joined the asians, can I come work on your farms
Owen Walker
Where are you? I can show you where to get ore so you can make lots of dosh.
Man, all that energy is so much though
Christian Hughes
was thinking about this at work the whole day, i havent played spessmens in a while (have been back on Veeky Forums for a week though, been good), was thinking of creating a conversion kinda server that takes cues from that Mars Station server from 2013, old Alien vs Marines, Garry's Mod 1942RP
basically it'd be like this
>takes place on earth, in post-war East Germany under soviet occupation, specifically Berlin >map is centered around the Berlin Wall, and the surrounding city establishments like apartments, hospital, bar, arcade, etc >jobs are essentially stripped down, for example Civilians would just be assistants on steroids that could do a handful of jobs, but mostly just be fearful citizens >"medbay" would be the hospital, which wouldn't have any spess tech or cloning >military and Volkspolizei would be essentially reskinned security, tasked with keeping order, patrolling the wall, shooting people who try to cross >a subsection of sec would be the Stasi, part of security but secret police. can disguise themselves as Civilian and randomly search and terrorize the population >chef would become the ration cook, people get hungry faster and are malnourished so people line up for rations
in addition to the map of berlin city, there'd be an underground z-level where people could take the subway to get around quicker and even escape the rules would be somewhat different, allowing for more leeway on murder and antagonizing and just having it dealt with in-game, but with roleplaying slightly more enforced
Jose Hill
Wiki is down
Caleb Ward
Lifeweb should remake its warfare mode into a WW1 version instead of retarded caves
Nathaniel Bailey
it's gay and shit go away
Alexander Roberts
continued.
the only real "antags" would be two modes, the "traitor" equivalent would essentially be certain people are chosen to resist against the Soviet government, they get the "points"/"Deutsche marks" to buy guns, bombs, etc either from a PDA-like device that'd fit the immersion of the 1950s, or from someone like a black market. they can recruit people to overthrow the government.
the "nuke ops" equivalent would be called something like "NATO invasion", players get chosen to be the NATO squad who has a specific goal to take out the East German/Soviet/Warsaw Pact forces and liberate them, should they fail or have difficulties, they have the option of launching a nuclear missile
so tell me, does this idea sound stupid or would you actually play it? i've been looking for a pet project to work on desu
Samuel Roberts
I downloaded using the installed but it still is fucked up
William Turner
Just like every goddamn SS13 reimagining a la fallout13 or FTL13 or every single fucking one of the whole lot except CM and lifeweeb
It will take a shitton more work than you think It will play like shit It will pull a pitiful amount of players And it will die
Andrew Carter
I'd play it.
Henry Jackson
AIs taking physical form on the holodeck when?
Austin Scott
Reminder we STILL DON'T HAVE HOLOPEOPLE
Joseph Powell
Nevermind, fixed it by updating Internet explorer
Zachary Cook
it will, i'm honestly very sloppy at coding and havent touched dreammaker since 2013/2014
it probably will pull a pitful. im thinking that i'd only host it on friday/saturday nights so people would come out
it will when i lose interest from spess again, hopefully this keeps me in. if it does i'll open source it and hope someone makes use of it/makes fun of it thx bb
also I forgot some of the other ideas, elements
>because its the mid 20th century, technology isn't very prevalent at all >no AI or borgs >civilians dont have headsets at all, instead they have to congregate to one another or go to the library, or listen to radio >the "librarian" would be very similar to how it is now in space, they stock books (as long as they're not counterrevolutionary), and write the newspaper. people would come to the library like they do now (so read: barely/to get porn books/to play D&D) >newspaper plays an important role on keeping people updated, and police can censor it and arrest librarian for spreading anti-communist propoganda >there'd also be a radio host job where they'd speak on the radio regarding things >every household/apartment/block has a radio to listen, a TV to check the news, and a telephone to broadcast in substitute of comms
Military jobs like police/stasi/kgb/nato however, would have a headset/radio to communicate with each other
Jordan Wood
>tutorial tells me how to roleplay then stops telling me what to do
Elijah Cox
Which nation?
Jaxson Sullivan
Jianghu Empire
John Barnes
I think I've picked things up pretty quick.
Come to the building east directly east of the starter square.
Gabriel Young
Which one there is 3 and one is locked
John Torres
Like directly east. It's named the common dorms, and there are lights literally everywhere inside it. You'll know.
The one next to the very large building.
Anthony Scott
...
Joseph Price
I'm a fucking retard, sorry. I meant west. I literally haven't left the house all day and I kept thinking I was in the clinic.
Jackson Sullivan
Zad you one of us?
Juan Diaz
This. If you want to go off the rails in team antag modes you're expected to get the team to agree and that's almost impossible in rev and cult.
Jason Johnson
>people shitposting a non-ss13 game in here
>admins too retarded to care
So how about that Monster Hunter World?
Jonathan Turner
its an ss13 mod
Jaxson Bennett
No it isn't. Holy shit no I am not taking this bait.
Xavier Ward
But you replied
Luke Morris
We BYOND general now?
Jason Howard
Apparently.
Did you niggers know the Final Fantasy 4 fangame game is still around? It's just hidden from the public to avoid square enix's takedown boner.
Josiah Moore

Jordan Gonzalez
>just want to grow some happy little plants >and farm some angry little bees >and do some happy piles of magic mushrooms >get the succ when I go to get my bees i'm not salty, i'm just kinda sad.
Logan Butler
medical bay was on point that round!
Jonathan Richardson
>that guy who made all the floor tiles clown squeak
Chase Morris
Who'm'ste do the materials and tools in EVA belong to? Are they only for emergencies? Is it right to take them as a convenience if you have EVA access?
Jacob Brooks
I think it was a nymph
Jaxson Wilson
If you have access then take whatever
Wyatt Ward
I remember one server that was up years ago that had a hologram doctor role like in Voyager. You couldn’t leave Medbay but you were invincible
Leo Mitchell
I wanna be a holodoc named Doctor Dick.
Brody Walker
I want red dwarf holographic crew
Robert Evans
I wouldn't take it all because it is supposed to be for emergencies, but taking some is a-okay. You wont be punished for it either way.
Adrian Rivera
Today in SS13G Spires Some un-named weebs find a dorm together, Possibly ERP Elias, Sasha and Caldwell Girl go on an adventure slaying a hundred or so scorpions and finding zero boars. Elias is revealed to be the chosen one, They are all hungry. They sell things to a plant lady and a cat lady gives them free food then they all go to sleep in a hut together, possibly ERP.
Charles King
On that note, Weaboo anons we did try to find you, to lead you to our homeland but got lost and accosted by a black man named 'afro' who teleprot'd behind us.
James Hall
>Start walking around with you girls >Free money and riceballs Truly amazing
Nathaniel Martin
My 15 year old blonde sensei and I just left aztec city, she is teaching me how the world works
Anthony Gonzalez
>make a meme character in SS13 mod Spires >actually end up liking the game >still have a meme character
Adrian Myers
We really aughta make a discord or a steam group to organize better instead of shitting up the thread all the time.
Brody Morris
>Elias' third nipple turns out to be a gift from the gods, marking him as the chosen one >While we're doing 80 damage he's doing 900 >both girls nearly die a horde of demons in the first cave, Elias walks out five minutes later after killing them with no damage >a hunt for boars leads to the far east, where there is absolutely fucking nothing >the party trekked across the continent for below-average rice balls >caught by a black man and his fairy waifu because we trespassed on his hunting ground >after returning to aztec town we get admin-awarded good boy points and EXP for our excellent RP of selling useless shit to a dryad >catgirl gives us free riceballs that may or may not be poisoned >everyone crams into a tiny bed in a 2x4 hut to sleep
Wyatt Lee
Man, the fucking guards in weeaboo lands are ridiculous. Even as a weeb this guy was like "Don't move or I'll break your legs" and proceeded to grill me on lore in the game.
You guys are Aztec, right? If you're at all near the Golden Capital we could meet you sometime.
John Morris
>Is it right to take them as a convenience if you have EVA access? If you do that the right thing to do would be to order more from cargo. But good luck getting cargo to deliver it there for you, even if they had EVA access which they don't.
Liam Barnes
Is monorail transit worth having in my city? I'm building it out but it seems like a large-scale subway system would be better, given that they're about the same price and subways use no above-ground space.
The monorails seem neat but I dunno if I should even bother. Any advice?
Ethan Anderson
...
Isaac Fisher
Dunno honestly. No map of the area I was in IC mode the entire time, I didnt even know we had a party chat. I assume I didn't actually miss much.
Jacob Kelly
Don’t worry about fancy transport user, once you get the tech that lets you build space stations the game really opens up
Nolan Gutierrez
Nah, that encounter was the only real time I used it
Jace Sanchez
>this new justin timberlake single does anyone else find this absolutely hilarious? oh my god this is the worst things I have heard so far this year. what is with the moaning in the chorus. these fucking wobbles for the beat. who thought this was a good idea? somebody, help me. the inflections. the FUCKING GUITAR SECTION, THESE WEAK ASS DRUMS definitely fucking my girlfriend to this tomorrow
Isaac Anderson
It's just a modern version of a song off FutureSex/LoveSounds. Same formula pretty much.
