Thankfully, I managed to arrest him in the nick of time, but the player started to protest that he had done nothing wrong, as he had not yet pulled the trigger or committed any crime, and would have me reported and banned. Upon seeing me, he turned around and drew his weapon, and was for all intents and purposes about to pull the trigger and blast my ass straight to the grave. While playing as a policeman, I once caught a gangster picking the lock to the police station. Players are more likely to argue over server rules and gameplay semantics than to try to weave a narrative with one another, and murder is generally an offence worthy of a ban and is likely to frustrate and enrage the victim (although to be fair, mass killing sprees by random players are not an uncommon occurrence, and the rules are in place to punish such dudes).

Yes, you can buy guns or property, but neither are worth a huge amount in terms of gameplay value – property is abundant, rarely used for long periods of time and can be broken into by a simple thug with a lockpick, and guns are relatively cheap (in fact, one map features a machine that spits out handguns and ammo, and the building which houses it is broken into so often it might as well not have doors).ĭreams of starting sinister cults led by evil priests, jail-house raids to rescue comrades in crime, or playing a sewer-dwelling serial killer are quickly dashed by the reality of the game in most servers. What many of these players fail to realise, however, is that the money is practically worthless anyway. As a result, it’s not uncommon to find a roleplay server ruled by the iron fist of a screaming 12-year old, as he stockpiles weapons and money in his secret off-map lair, accessible only through the magical powers of no-clip. Many servers grant admin status (and associated powers) to those who are generous enough to donate to the monetary upkeep of the server. However, some players go one step further completely and transcend the systems of the game itself. The more money you have, the greater the amount of access you have to guns – the most concrete form of power in any online FPS. For many players, this is money – either gained from working your job for an inordinately long amount of time, or from selling drugs, or laundering money (both of which are much less legal). Instead, many players focus on gaining power and influence in the server they frequent, as progress is usually saved even when you’ve logged out. Roleplay and the creation of stories is an intangible kind of reward – many players would probably ask themselves why they’d even want to do it in the first place, and it’s difficult to blame them, given the shudder-inducing examples of Sonic fans playing out fan-fiction over Facebook or some other social network. If there’s one game that’s shown me how goal-oriented players are, Dark RP is it. Such a set-up is fragile in nature, and would be unlikely to occur among a group of close friends, so it won’t come as much of a surprise to hear that a group of random people with a great deal of anonymity lack the co-ordination required to achieve this online. Well, you’ve probably already guessed that this almost never happens. The hope is that in the process of carrying out your job, roleplay will occur (although hopefully not THAT kind of roleplay), stories will evolve and you’ll engage in player-created scenarios and drama in a way few games can even come close to reaching.
The general idea is that you join a multiplayer server which takes place in a map resembling a town, or a business district, or whatever, and choose a job to work: ranging from policeman to gangster, to chef, to gundealer, to scientist, etc.
