Ns Roleplay?

<div class="IPBDescription">Anyone do it?</div> Through my experiences in playing NS, some odd situations have broke out.

On occasion I was a Fade on a CO map, since my team was winning, I was the first person to go fade. Bad idea.
The entire server, including my own teammates, had yelled at me for going fade because we were "owning them so badly".
So I came up with an idea, half-expecting it not to work.
I yelled over normal chat:

"ATTENTION EVERYONE"
"I AM NOW THE PEACE FADE, AND WILL NO LONGER HURT RINES!!"
"Can I please come to your base?"

While this recieved an "rofl" from most of the players, some people on the marine team said yes! To clear up any misunderstandings, I said:
"The peace fade will B-hop to the marine start! Please don't shoot the peace fade!"

So I B-hopped my merry way over to the MS.
At first, several LMGers unloaded their clips into me when I arrived, causing me to retreat back to the hive. But the marines who didn't shoot were now screaming at thier teammates to not shoot the peace fade. I tried going in again, and this time no one shot at me... except my little brother, who also happened to join in. But soon enough, he ran out of ammo, and with no armory, he just ran out of MS with his knife.
But for the rest of the game, a war was still happening in the MS, with a fade bouncing around in the middle of it!

I posted all of this to find out if anyone else likes to roleplay in NS, or maybe even find a server for it. Roleplay in NS is IMO, the coolest idea I've seen.

By the way, I have a demo of me being the peace fade, ask and I will give it!

    As much as I feel like flaming you for that, I'm not.
    What was the point in saying that?

    so whats so cool about this?
    I once let a friendgorge build dc,mc,sc prison around me so other aliens couldnt get me.Finally i died when lerks spored me trough a small gap.
    Also some games when there are to few people usually marines and aliens try to ride eachother and do stupid stuff.

    but what the heck is ns roleplay...i have played Spetcialists in roleplay servers but ns roleplay?

    Hmm... Well I've been a peacegorge before, and I've been a rine who made peace with the gorges. It all depends on where you play I guess. I only roleplay jokingly on some of the less serious rounds, like when we're winning by a whole lot.

    I always thought roleplaying in NS meant, as a Marine, you would use military lingo and end most of your sentences with Sir!. I guess Alien roleplay would involve someone being the Hivemind and talking in a funny voice. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Once in a 4 on 4 game the aliens were totally smashing us. So one of the fades joined the marine team and started killing the gorges that were trying to lame up all around our base. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    It was technically against server rules, but it was pretty frigging funny so we didn't complain or report him.

    That's not roleplaying. A real fade would never make peace with marines.

    What you are doing is called goofing off. Everyone does it in different ways. But it's not called roleplaying.

    Roleplaying wannabes. If you want to really roleplay, then mimic a 3v3 battle. Where it's three marines vs three aliens. And you guys takes turns attacking each other. And then you can perform limit breaks, and heal each other, and summon a charging onos, or a heavy armor. And once you win the battle, the game will play a song, while you coin stupid phrases. Then you gain experience and move onto the next battle. Someone should make a game like this. Call it Final Natural Fantasy Selection.

    Ingenius? I know.

    hehe back on the old ns_lost, the marines used the phase gate clipping glitch to relocate their entire base into the tiny spare res node room that you can only get into by welding the door open.

    They somehow fit a cc, 2 IPs, armoury, res tower, the entire rine time excpet for 1 guy, and some other misc crap.

    We found the last marine outside the base (who conviently had a welder) and we "persuaded him" to weld open the door for us. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    CplDavis ftw!!!!!

    anyway that isn't really roleplay. its more like a peace game without the peace. we used to have that in very small games before co came into the picture <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    but TS roleplay is sorta fun. before they restricted the use of half life models i once had this thing where we changed to the buggy zombie models and only had seal knives while the hunter would have all the weapons. then we went into a building which was totally dark and start hunting.
    and i once got shot to smitthereens by a sawed off shotgun by the guy who "owned the bar" cos i accidently pulled out a gun in the bar <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Poor marine should of realised even if he could weld the door the onos would eat him <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
