    Personally, I'd like to see something a little more unique...

    Yeah, this literally sounds just like a dark rp server I played on a while ago,

    Also its a tad bit shitty in a lot of ways...
    -Npc job vendors can be very buggy and on servers with them players are allways around them and crap, along with the fact that you cant base in the building they are in...

    -cars.... I could see some cars. but no more than 6 or 7. This should be based on boats, as that is what devinity is sort of based on atm.

    -Stamina skill leveling, It should not be leveled up, it should solely be dependent on what class you are.

    -fishing... you didnt mention it, we need that shizzzaazzle

    -I dont think island rp should have sky scrapers and all that crap, dirt roads and seperated houses on seperated islands with seperate docks.......

    -Survival... I think there should be some survival aspect to this, maybe a food bar or something...

    -no money printers, players should have to make legit money such as delivering stuff using boats or fishing or owning a tiki bar...

    - Darude-Sandstorm, there was no mention.

    My dream is gone, it's now just a stranded winter survival server :(

    I guess with the devinity touch it wouldn't be so bad, I just don't want another build type thing. I'd much prefer entity over physical objects. I build enough in flood, I don't want to see disgusting buildings let alone boats in an rp.

    Hmmm, disgusting buildings and crap is always a problem, and devinity is based on creation and building in my opinion...

    Because of the one gamemode we have, the community is focused on it?

    Also let me point something out, what gamemodes are based off buikding, BuildRP, DarkRP. Sandbox, Stranded, flood, winter survival, mafia wars, 1942rp, sled build.

    Now let's look at some game modes that don't involve building.

    TTT, Prophunt, jailbreak, HL2RP.

    Now, is ther a single semi serious roleplay that doesn't involve building bases (excluding clockwork). The answer is no.

    That's the definition of unique.

    In case you haven't noticed either, at the bottom of your page it talks about what devinity is about, striving to bring a unique experience to its users.

    The idea of semi serious if you read the top page, is attempting to remove the idea of darkrp completely. Whatever dark rp has, make it different, more involving, and more content rich.

    Yeah, copying the idea of clockwork is really unique.

    I'm with you on not having building, but I really don't like some of the ideas that you had. On top of that you haven't even explained it very much.

    God damnit. Clockwork would have nothing to do with it. Jesus christ do you guys even readdddd. It wouldn't be copying clockwork and it wouldn't be copying darkrp, and it wouldn't be copying anything. BibleThump

    It would be copying, it would just be creating something exactly like it and not original in any way.

    Here's the thing, it's not even like it at all, so it's not god damn copying. -_-

    So stop fucking saying shit when you voted and said it was a good idea, if you don't like the ideas in the main thread, don't vote that and then make something entirely new. This isn't about survival, or making new shit, it's based on the idea in the main thread.

    You know what, why even fucking bother trying to make something good so it can just get transformed into dog shit.

    To sum up the idea in a nutshell (at least how I've interpreted the info presented):

    Basically this except on an island, with a focus on mercantile gameplay with fishing, mining, and trading, and with a developed economy with a three-tiered socioeconomic hierarchy?

    EDIT: Also without Combine.

    For the most part yes. maybe this might give an idea of the 'type' of gameplay, maybe a bit more serious.

    Here's a screenshot of what I've been playing, some of the most fun I've had. http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/570022771445219179/C03024C09DADD8B49130A2ECF91F7D4DA83D14AB/
