We will be merging with Adamant Gaming as mentioned before. How this will work is that we will have two servers now, with spread out staff. Being hl2rp staff (Hydra-Gaming Server) and FalloutRP staff (Adamant-Gaming Staff). The forum will be edited to add FalloutRp section, but since Delta is still working on the server the server he would love for you guys to help him via. suggestions and ideas. Let's hope this will benefit both communities

I'll post my basic to-do list here.
- Re-set the standard CW Vegas models to actual Fallout props not CSS. - Change certain script based items. - Get forum set up for different factions - Set static props on the map, and the door names. - Find out why the laser rifle shot sound is super quiet. - Take suggestions. - Find testers. - Find people to be apart of the Brother Hood Of Steel.

Consider the fact of when we do fully merge all my members will come over here, so we won't be going off just THIS population more will be added to it. Hydra Gaming has a stable HL2RP population as it is, and no one is forcing anyone to play on Fallout nor am I even saying it will be released in like two days. Within the time it's released, and fully ready i'm sure we will have gained more members.

Hydra has a 100 slot server. Normally, there's an average of 6-17ish people a day and that is only recently. With Adamant it'll probably be anywhere from 6-27 which, on one server is very, very good. However, seeing as both are essentially new, the population is anything but stable. If you were to merge and make so as the population would all be on city which was at one point, the initial game plan at Adamant last I had been on, then I would wholeheartedly agree. However, introducing a new server with a new RP genre entirely to a server that has an already minute run time history is a questionable game plan at best. Maybe if it was a bit later on, then yeah, sure. But as it stands now, I foresee three outcomes.
1. HL2rp remains popular and grows while Fallout kinda just sits there getting maybe a few people here or there but is relatively barren.
2. Fallout tips the scale and becomes popular, essentially sapping HL2rp's population and making it useless to have.
3. The spread out nature that two servers that are on totally opposite ends of the spectrum bring fan out the population to roughly 3-10 people on each server and the low population attract little to no one else and causes the servers popularity to diminish and kill both servers.
Granted there is always the possibility of both servers taking off, but I see that as a huge long shot.

It gives us feed back on who likes what more. 2: Vise-versa of 1. If Fallout becomes popular, and HL2RP kinda tanks then we remove it if no one is interested. It gives us feed back on who likes what more. 3: Even if that does happen CW New Vegas has hardly any servers so the competition rate is so low we would bound to gain players. Some of those players would also be attracted to HL2RP as we could advertise it on both servers. There is also the fact that people can play on both servers so both servers may have about 10-20 people on them at their own times while the other one is empty, but only for a short time.

I wouldn't throw two servers into a community which has all of 20 active members.. just doesn't make sense, nor would it turn out good.
