what happened to actually having control over resupply
if retards want to pool together and create problems, cut them off from lambda, simple

that was the whole point of the cell system
case of good on paper bad/hard in execution

there's several points in which it'd fall through, really

1. people who're in with lambda support can just unofficially give weapons to them
2. without lambda support, the aggressive groups would have no qualms to resort to actual theft and muggings (and OOCly banning that would cause massive uproar, since you've ICly crippled their weapon supply and them told them they can do nothing about it)
3. they'd be encouraged to S2K the combine more in order to loot their weapons

what's the point of running around as a cop if you're under the chance of sniper fire / @deathwolf driving a manhack into you
it's easier to move about in vehicles, it's that simple

you want to blow the APC up?

set a trap for it, drop a tree on it, get 10 vorts online and beam the crap out of it.
an RPG is not the only way and to act like it is undersells the whole point of the server, doing things that simply weren't possible earlier.

1. people who're in with lambda can just unofficially give weapons to them
exile or force their cell to kick them out for breaking the person's embargo

2. without lambda support, the aggressive groups would have no qualms to resort to actual theft and muggings (and OOCly banning that would cause massive uproar, since you've ICly crippled their weapon supply and them told them they can do nothing about it)
and then they get hunted down and killed by everyone else, who tf is going to put up with a literal bandit group acting against their own people, the insurgency already has their own peeves, people mugging and stealing just means they get swarmed by everyone for free loot/pk auths.

3. they'd be encouraged to S2K the combine more in order to loot their weapons
and? such are the consequences for being an annoying prat.

there are other ways to get weapons, @Numbers knows what I'm talking about, if the rest of you forgot then maybe you should think for a bit.

And then if you install any sort of staff-backed leadership, good luck on getting people to not get pissed off and complain if you're not shitting out weapons at Mach-10 lol

Problem I'm seeing is the map is so massive that obviously cops are gonna use their fridge to roll about rather than hoofing it and probably getting wiped by a rebel patrol, ala Ashville.

But then when rebels have limited Anti-Armor and you can't guarantee them being online (or having vorts handy) then yeah, I get the frustration too.
Cops have 1 APC iirc

And that APC is pretty damn vital, they better not loose it.

RE: "PASSIVE AGGRESSION"
Not feeling a lot of incentives to flag up early with the whole pendulum effect returning in full force.
"But Tinbe, you're just perpetuating the pendulum effect. Be the change you want to see in the world!"
No.
If going outside as a vort with three (out of six currently flagged-up) rebels and having a non-s2k encounter with a four-man cop patrol is always going to result in them getting half a dozen cops and three OTA as backup like it did yesterday, I'm not even going to bother.
latest salt post i could find and I didn't bother addressing it because of the salt

transhuman players be like "oh wow we were so surprised had put up literally no resistance so we just kept going" when rebel players were told it'd be passive for a few days, so they were concentrated deep in the bunker (which is impossible to cover off all entrances/exits without killing rp due to the sheer size), y'know, roleplaying.

Steering this back on topic for the sake of everyone's sanity.

Obviously cops need to use their one and only death fridge rather than getting mowed down by rebels whenever they wanna do a lap. So how can rebels feel more confident about dealing with said fridge if they can't get an RPG on-site?

the issue of why the SD is more annoyed at rebels than the combine is simple

combine's complaints are localized to a few leaders who singlehandedly drive the OOC competitiveness on their side, the majority get to remain emotionally uninvolved since all they do is follow orders and dont have much to complain about most of the time

the rebels do what those combine leads do except it's damn near everyone and it comes from 5 different angles and fragmented groups

maybe its somebody's fault, maybe it's nobody's fault, but it's completely understandable why it'd be hard to deal with
