Massive Multiversal Crossover

NPC's. Obviously.

@Scarifar

I don't feel very comfortable with NPC's, really. It'll only reduce the level of interaction between UMMA players and SE players, since people can be confident that they can always make a "safe" post depicting them blowing away faceless mooks. Plus, it looks like this mission would be better done stealthily (or, rather, as stealthily as a doctor, a wizard, and a janitor can be) rather than a full-on assault on the facility. Meta-Ridley and his crew attack the UMMA fleet in orbit, while Medic and his team take advantage of the UMMA's distraction to sneak into the facility. It's foolproof!

@Earnest Evans

They are in the resident evil world. Stealth may not always work against Lickers for instance. It's safe to assume that BOW's found in there could easily go predator mode and screw over any attempts of stealth.

@Savato

In which case you go loud once you're inside and away from the UMMA. Medic may be a sadist who wants to cause trouble, but I doubt he's stupid enough to start a pitched firefight while the enemy is on high alert. Medic understands the concept of an investment for future rewards. Sneak into the facility, get what you need using your team currently comprised of mooks and non-combat specialists, and THEN go ripshit bonkers now that you've got a bioweapons facility stolen from right under the enemy's nose.

I don't find making my own fun, fun in this kind of roleplay. I'm having to do it right now, and it's not very refreshing.

@JonxlatheLion

That's why you stick with your group and cooperate with each other. Either that or you wait until something that looks fun to work with pops up, as Hatter had done.

Return to the Multiverse

See, I'm not here to kill anyone's characters, and I avoid doing it.

@JonxlatheLion

What about that whole "make him fight Ghost Rider" thing? What about Deadpool throwing a bandolier of live grenades into a melee?

I'm here to play deadpool, and as it stands it's getting boring for anyone that isn't ajax because he's the only one that has a challenge.

@JonxlatheLion

That's why people are making their own fun and not relying on blase metagaming and desperate attempts to bring conflict into the game.

Return to the Multiverse

Guilty soul, attempt to kill an innocent bystander. But the rest of that i never thought of. I'm just kind enough to give a character a second chance. Deadpool will try to revive chaos because he likes him. Whether or not it works depends on kalama.

@JonxlatheLion

Ajax has thus far killed no innocent bystanders. He's killed Chaos and tried to kill Deadpool, neither of which are innocent by any stretch. Why even try? Just have Deadpool continue with his current train of thought (pester king of Hyrule or deal with lava dragons) and not make it an issue in the first place. You literally have to do nothing to keep Kalamadea from having to work around Deadpool being a metagaming idiot.

Return to the Multiverse

Where did you get 'revive chaos so he'll help me' from that!? REally, i wanna know, mister conspiracy man!

@JonxlatheLion

Simple logical procession, dude. 1. Resurrect Chaos 2. Make it so that someone is going to fight Chaos 3. Chaos sees Ajax is distracted and wants to get revenge. 4. Laugh Beyond that, why would Ghost Rider decide to target Ajax?

Return to the Multiverse

It's deadpool, don't expect me to break character and make him think responsibly.

@JonxlatheLion

It's not breaking character at all. In fact, in order to make your plan at all logical, you'll have to make him spontaneously decide to check out the OOC, see that someone plans on reviving Chaos, decide to do it himself anyway, and then figure out the exact location of Chaos. All while he's currently supposed to be distracted by any number of things he's decided to start doing. Be reasonable. Understand that nobody wants you to revive Chaos in this boring, stagnant way. Understand that you aren't being controlled by Deadpool. Understand that you're flailing to find some flimsy justification for spiting Zerohex. This "Oh, but I'm not making these decisions, it's just what Deadpool would do!" bullshit isn't fooling anyone.

Return to the Multiverse

YEs, but i'm not a complete twat so i don't use my characters to fight my out of character battles. I do control deadpool, but i'm a good enough roleplayer that i know how to play a character without my personal values. I do control deadpool, and maxwell, and many more characters i could put in that would very easily smite down any of the new characters, but i know self control and don't use my characters to go around one-shotting people. I hold no grudge against zerohex, i certainly hold no grudge against my brother. I don't even personally hold a grudge against ajax. He's an awesome character. Deadpool has severe problems with his apparently 'i'm the best around' attitude because it conflicts with HIS 'i'm the best around' attitude. See where i'm going with this?

@JonxlatheLion

What I'm seeing here is you trying to thinly veil your own wants and needs by trying to say that you're merely roleplaying as Deadpool. I strongly suggest you step back, think about what Deadpool is supposed to be doing, analyze the contextual clues you've gleaned from this entire conversation, and apply it to your character's actions. It's why Zerohex made Ajax not kill Alpha when he joined in the fight against Ganondorf. It's why Cirno, Jack, Pete, and the rest are staying back instead of trying to fight Ganondorf. It's why the Mad Hatter popped in to give Alpha someone else to chew on. You aren't restrained by what your character does, especially if what you want your character to do requires him to ignore absolutely everything else that's happening right now and to metagame in a very specific and carefully-planned way.

Return to the Multiverse

I'm actually happy chaos died, he's an annoying prick. DEADPOOL is not me, he actually liked Chaos. I'm not using deadpool to spite anyone, deadpool is spiting someone for trying to kill him. Deadpool is a 'we're a team and i dont leave my team behind' kind of guy. Me, i'd leave chao behind to die in a heartbeat. I'd understand ajax going all out like he did in an instant. DEADPOOL IS NOT ME DEADPOOL IS HIS OWN CHARACTER THAT I MAKE REACT BASED ON HIS PERSONALITY

@JonxlatheLion

You control Deadpool entirely. It's up to you whether you want Deadpool to metagame like a tit and foil the GM's plans, or if you want to make him pay attention to more important things like, say... the town he's currently terrorizing or the army of dragons he's abandoned his companions over?

Return to the Multiverse

I'm just playing deadpool the way he's always been in this roleplay: Leave no man behind no matter the cost. Deadpool does metagames, he can break teh fourth wall. Right from his CS: Able to break the fourth wall and metagame

@JonxlatheLion

I understand that. I'm saying that it's in poor form to metagame out of spite for both the GM and Zerohex. When grandsword, the person whose character has been killed, is taking the loss of Chaos better than you, it's probably for the best if you let Kalamadea's plans for Chaos' corpse go off without a hitch.
