Just a quick discussion, Vortigaunts, Headcrabs and Zombie whitelists exist - why don't other Xen creatures? It would be fucking great to RP as a Houndeye or a Bullsquid as an official whitelist, albeit rare. If you've ever taken a good look at HL1 AI there's actually a lot of life to them, a bunch of different houndeye pack actions and interactions INCLUDING SLEEPING. Would also help rebelrp as there's actively another threat besides OTA and Zombies, and from my experience rebelrp has gotten a bit dull as of late.

There is a Xenian fauna whitelist I think. And to be honest, the people who have them have been relatively active, I've had a number of encounters with them already within the past week or two with the houndeyes. However, it's a bit much to have them around as a regular occurance. If anything, it'd be a very restricted. Considering the rebel area is literally blocked off by a massive wall in all directions, it makes sense if you want for an occasional popup. Chop up their meat, use their hide.

Your experience is what you make of it man. There's only so much that people can do to make something fun for someone else. Just today, we got shelled and fire bombed by the Koreans. And people came together to put the fire out and clear out the headcrabs/zombies.

Of course it would be heavily restricted but I think there's a current problem whitelist wise with a few factions. CWU has gotten awfully dull and repetitive with a lack of true leadership, Rebelrp itself is so extensively difficult to get anywhere in [due to the numerous xenophobic factions that expect you to do suicide missions], UM is fine, same with CP.

I just feel like, even if it was restricted, it should be an option - albeit extremely limited. But just imagine a pack of like 3 houndeyes at once in the outlands. It'd be a good experience for the rebels as they have something actively to do, but it would also be a fun experience for the people playing them.

Really, this is all just a thought. I hope It's considered by a few people.

I get your point but I know numerous citizens that have left rebelrp due to the simple fact that there's barely anything to do half the time and every group is a xenophobe. It gets boring, and it's never really as active as citizen rp. All I encountered was "give us this craft that" and "do impossible task and we'll let you in", or oh no headcrab [killed in a minute]. I cant even count how many times all people mention is killing cops, and then the only 'tense' moments are when you're hiding from OTA.
