As a certified player™️, I despise Revs

[The Wrench]

It’s one of the worst game modes in my opinion and it extends in already dead shift longer than what it has to. At least cult has the common curiosity to blow the station up after a minute post win

[Super Aggro Crag]

I asked about your opinion. Thank you for posting it.

"Hey guys, we just kicked those Centcomm dogs off of the station!"
"Great, what do we do now?"
"Let's ask Centcomm to send us a shuttle that delivers us right to their headquarters so we can be executed and/or reeducated!"

[oranges]

revs is fine when it ended the round but mothblocks is obsessed with post rev

+1. I play CMO mostly and enjoy the whole healing department stuff. Rev rounds are either me dying early on or spending most of the round turtling in the brig, either way its a really boring experience. Personal POV.

Even more generally though, from an observer perspective, revs have high death tolls mostly being round removal and a tendancy to drag on. If any third antagonist of power but without a round goal turns up (swarmers, spiders and ofc aliens) then the round has a good chance of softlocking as the crew will fail to co-operate and counter the threat. There is no way of forcing the mode to conclusion short of admin intervention, and as the crew numbers dwindle more and more it really slows down often and until key figures die, nothing can progress the game state.

Cult feels "similar" conceptually in that its an undercover conversion that turns into TDM but the progression of eyes/halos drives some balance point (numbers wise) into the way it plays out, and both teams have a way of forcing a conclusion (summon nar'sie, call shuttle).

It'd be fine if we stole Paradise's "Summon ert" button

when revs round is "won"

teh round should restart, everyoen who was on the losing side should start as prisoner, and everyone who was antag when teh round was interrupted should get their antag again.

wat to all of this, none of it makes sense

[scamoppi]

i like revs, especially once transitions from surprise attacks into pitched battles
also getting mobbed after stumbling into REVCON 2560 is funny to me even if i get roundremoved

[WineAllWine]

everyone thinks a revs win should end the round except for mothblocks. I've just taken to either sending a deathsquad or a 1 min emergency shuttle to get it over with

Fluff it that a parallel revolution is happening on centcomm, spawn a few dead interns on the shuttle bay, you are joining your comrades in the glorious struggle at central command. Fixed

The baffling bit is potentially enabling roundstart antag knowledge if nothing else. I hope you didn't go loud as a tot before the revolution was won.

[Kendrickorium]

people have been complaining about game modes for fucking years. stop complaining about it. give up your body to ghosts, go to another server, commit fucking suicide with your character. stop fucking whining
i regularly commit suicide during war ops because 99 percent of the time I hate playing it and would much rather watch

people complained so much about shit on hippie that they straight up removed blob, nerfed wizards hard and made it so lings couldnt revive themselves
news flash it made an already dying server even worse off

the only game mode that is garbage is families and goof is still working on that

[iwishforducks]

revs is one of the best team deathmatch gamemodes

you guys are just big babies

also post-revs my beloved <3 i think it's totally fine that the shuttle is instantly called when revs win. if there's anything i would change about post-revs is that it should just force a shuttle call. it's hilarious as the revs look around and realize they've completely wrecked everything

[Kendrickorium]

yeah the aftermath from a revolution is absolutely a blast

[GamerAndYeahMick]

anyone who hates revs hates ss13 and should leave

[Armhulen]

i really do like postrevs but i agree with autocall. 10 or even 20 minutes of postrevs is a good fill

[GamerAndYeahMick]

Autocall is meh just end the round

[sinfulbliss]

Revs is my favorite gamemode despite the cringe change they made to it.

everyone thinks a revs win should end the round except for mothblocks. I've just taken to either sending a deathsquad or a 1 min emergency shuttle to get it over with

The rationale was that it was anticlimactic for the round to just end. But it's even more anticlimactic for the round to drag on for 30 min with no clear winner/loser on roundend text. Post-revs can be fun though - shuttle should probably be auto-called to arrive in 10 after the last head dies so revs can enjoy the victory a little bit.

[toemas]

k ur opinion sux

[Pandarsenic]

Having the round end with victory is, in fact, very climactic

unless the last head of a side was just hiding for ages

[cacogen]

I don't understand why they changed it so after you're flashed you have to lie down for the rest of your life unless you toggle rest and then you don't. Revs used to be fun and good but it seems very difficult to get off the ground these days and I think a lack of revheads (used to be three, now when you get midround sleeper or whatever the fuck it's just you) has to do with it. That and the obvious tell of having everybody you flash spending three years in a coma unless a mob spends a day and a half shaking them up. This is probably a bug but the fact it's been around for so long without being fixed has cemented it as an inevitable part of revs.

[YBS]

Revs is based and a staple

Autocall's good because it lets the other antags have a short while to finish what they're doing.

you are going to prison

Its their lord of the flies moment

Who wants to be on a station surrounded by dead bodies and hull breaches?

They shouldn't have a right to do whatever they're doing just end the round who wants a more boring game so John antag can slip the janitor in maints for an extra 15 minutes yawn

[cacogen]

Admins who go on about player entitlement to be alive or finish their round or whatever are always wrong in whatever they're saying

Do you want it to be removed because we got policy threads by people complaining it ruined their antag round because they spent 20 minutes prepping something and then the rev ended? Other than Cult or Nooki, we don't really have anything that just INSTANTLY ends the round, and they do that because the round literally can't continue.

[Mothblocks]

To be fair it's not like that happened before (policy threads about Revolution and dynamic, let alone ones that would be entertained legitimately), it was just a very strong motivation.

I just dont think anyone is entitled to antag, and people who have "their" round "ruined" can just deal with it imo rule 10 yadayadayadayada, it was observably more enjoyable for me whenever it just faded to black like the sopranos

I can kinda understand that. That aside, I'm still kinda leaning on the like, "is Revs Win really something as cataclysmic as Nookis and Cult?" for the sake of just ending round. Iunno. I see strong arguments either way, and don't really have a side.

[YBS]

You guys are making some good points we should probably double the amount of firelocks used on station jic

[oranges]

heh revs
