I know /tg/ had a pretty active Space Station 13 community way back in the days of yore, and now that the open-source modernized Space Station 14 is coming along nicely i was wondering if there is a SS14 /tg/ community kicking around. It would be fun to get stuck in with the old robust grey tide crowd again. Otherwise, general Space station 13/14 thread i guess.
>>97367313ss14 kind of blows chunks.
>>97367321How so? From what i've seen of it it is SS13 with a modernized codebase
>>97367324its probly hella gay
Just gonna drop this here.
>>97367329Then it would fit your very well.
Is the old SS13 servers even still active? Haven't played SS13 for years and years but i could get back into it.
>>97367378Yeah, but the culture has completely changed from "Trouble in Terrorist Town mixed with crazy hijinks" to "badmin concentration camp"You can even be banned for killing people with a meme setup as antag because it wasn't your objective and therefore Simon didn't say so.
>>97367421That sure sounds like suck. Being antag is all about causing chaos to get to your objective. Overwhelm the station with a few fires or bombs then grab/kill your objective when people are too busy triaging the station
>>97367427It's an unfortunate case of>a large influx of RPers who demand you read their several page long backstory, and remember those pronouns or ding dong bannu>antags speedrunning bombs and silent shuffle, which means badmins enforce antag objectives, which means when an antag does come up with a funny gimmick (like let's say building a death machine in the hallway that doesn't hurt anyone unless they touch it, which they of course do) gets banned along with the shittier less creative antags>people come and go, but the worst players stick around and become difficult to remove because they're autists and being a shitter on SS13 is their life now
>>97367434That sounds like it would be a good time to start anew in SS14 then. Do a clean slate and be rid of the turboautists and badmins
>>97367451SS14 is exactly what I described except the badmin developers of SS14 can pull the plug on your server if they decide they do not like you. There is no "fresh start", it's "the inmates now run the asylum and have an explosive collar around your neck with their finger on the detonator".Like let's say you don't have "must respect pronouns" in your server's rules. Not anti-LGBT, you just don't ban people for pronoun shit. That in and of itself is grounds for your server to be banned.
>>97367561Now i know you are buttmad, full of shit and probably a badmin to boot. There are no such rules under the listed General Server rules.https://docs.spacestation14.com/en/community/space-wizards-hub-rules.html#the-rules
>>97367337>it would fit your very wellYOU REALLY ROASTED HIM WITH THAT ONE SAARIZZAT +1000
>>97367594Why does there need to be an "official rule"? They can pull the plug on your server just because they decide they want to, that's a fact. It's as simple as>player: "ADMIN! EVERYONE ELSE WON'T RESPECT MY PRONOUNS!">admin: "nobody cares, play the game">player: "SS14 DEVS! TRANSPHOBIA!">server shut downThat's the SS14 experience, and nobody in their right mind wants that.
>>97367697Not that guy but you sound like a massive faggot
>>97367706Not that guy but YOU sir sound like the gigantic faggot here.
I had so many great experiences playing ss13, it's so sad the server options are fucked.
Good times.
>>97367756I can still hear it echo in my mind... that rumba beat of doom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfO_OfmGOl0
I still listen to ss13 music from time to time. Takes me back. I iss it. Is this what getting old is like?
>>97367706YWNBAW
>>97367697Just don't be an ass and/or don't play with easily triggered people and you'll be fine
>>97367697>making up scenarios to be mad at
>97367697pic related as fuck
>>97367706>>97367714As a cock afficionado, you both sound like massive closeted faggots who should get a room.
>>97367879Hey I'm very much an open enjoyer of both teams equally.

>>97367313I miss SS13, I could never get the client working after I switched to linux so I haven't played in years though,>>97367697Wait, how do they pull the plug on a server? A private server? Or just an instance on their hardware?
>>97367957Then you should stop acting like a prancing la la homo man.
>>97368263SS14 has a steam launcher so that works on linux at least.
Rare and blessed ss13 thread.ss14 is gay and lame for variety of reasons. The most obvious one is that they don't have tile-based movement, so they can fuck right off. /vg/station fork tried to implemented it, and it kinda worked, but it was gay and lame (like ss14 code itself).I don't care about it.Now. /vg/station13 is the only real ss13 server left, really. Real, as in with old-school code and full of oldfags still playing. It is the one I am playing right now, the only one.Ignore the bullshit in the generals on /vg/ or /vm/ or whatever the fuck. They've been taken over by shitposting schizos.It's not the biggest one, population-wise, but we get 20+ players every night. Now, the problem is that it's US evening/night time. European hours are dead as fuck. Which sucks. If you want to try and fix it, I would be happy to hop on with you./tg/, the board, had its own server at one point. It was the d20station. When I made a ss13 thread here last year, a guy who was involved with the project said he wants to resurrect d20 and host something. Unfortunately the thread I made got buried pretty quickly and nothing came out of it.I would happily play some games on d20.2, especially if it was more European timezone oriented server.But yeah. I started playing this stupid game in 2012. On /vg/station13. Then moved to /tg/station13 and played extensively there. Until the things I disliked reached the breaking point for me.Now I'm back on /vg/station and I'm not going anywhere. Join. Play. If you want the OG ss13 experience. You can RP on it as well, just don't treat it as Baystation roleplaying, where you write paragraphs of emotes. You can play a character, there are many of those around.See you in space, anon.
mfw when shitsec goes in baton's blazing to curb my honking but cargo is handing our free guns
I don't want to play on a server where Clowns ain't clumsy.
>>97367313I prefer Barotrauma.
>>97370205Different kind of experience. Barotrauma is a coop game.
>>97367313SS13 crashed and burned in terms of community but SS14 is still much much worse
>>97370757I disagree.
THE TOOBS!!!
>>97367313Is it still full of control freaks and homosexual drama queens?
>>97370786>posts the one exception to the rule>>97370852Yes
>>97368483>Then moved to /tg/station13 and played extensively there. Until the things I disliked reached the breaking point for me.I used to play AI on /tg/station as "C.U.M.I.E.S." I stopped playing the moment I got bwoinked by a mod with 1/4th my playtime saying that my name was inappropriate and I had to change it. I came back later and found out that you can't call lizards "liggers" any more. /tg/station is super, super dead.
>>97372962I got bwoinked for using "ligga," and my character's name was s Hip Hop reference. Rest in Power, Runs-The-Jewels.
>>97367313I tried to get into ss13 well past it's prime. The game was a glorified chat room where weird losers who have been playing together for years just hang out and have stupid little discord tier dramas.
>>97373470I remember you>>97373488yup. some guy lived physically next to the server, had some unattainable ping, and absolutely dumpstered everyone in combat. Lots of rounds just revolved around him and his fan club sycophants doing whatever they wanted.
I played a lot of SS13 on /tg/station and I can still remember when they took fire damage off of the cake hat. Not the first and not the last time over eager devs got to shit up the game for me.
