Make it so officers can accept any duty state started during an outbreak. The fact that this is even a thing is just borderline ludicrous and ridiculous that only divisional personel can start a duty state during an outbreak. I mean, what point is there to AEGIS who choose to play during infection to stay in-game, if they cannot even do anything? To quote the Chairman - "If you can stand around on a line for thirty minutes at a time, you have patience... You still have the patience to stay in the game and do your job." - this quote was taken from an AEGIS | Tutorials playlist video on his channel, regarding duty states. This is not even a widely-adapted rule, rather an inconvenience to everyone who decides to play during an outbreak. If every AEGIS left, what would be the point in it..?

stereotypical response would be: join a division
but really, you're not particularly doing a duty, you're standing against a wall, probably afk
as for what happens if all the aegis leave? the wastelanders are still in the server, and they still need curing
if not for the disobedient aegis, and the raiders trying their best to camp any semblance of infection, we would be able to clear the game with ease
hoary quarry
not exactly the point, most people are still afking at gates
and ya'll just inactive, most of the time there are like 3 ard at max
thus it takes ages
people shouldn't really be at a disadvantage because you cannot handle something that's in your duties
tranquil wolf
its not exactly that we cannot handle it, we handle it just fine, its that performing said job correctly takes time
i will also point out that we are a non-combative division, so it should not be a surprise that we dont exactly do well when you throw a raiding onslaught at us
hoary quarry
ok then, if you can handle it, why cannot we do duty states?
yesterday it was almost an hour with 1 or 2 ard
lavish tapir
manty people get on to do duty states
and an infection not in their control will not allow them to do a duty state?
doesnt make much sense
gilded cipher
yk right
turbid zenith
ez duty state 🥶
but yeah you are spending your time on the game as an aegis and you cannot make some points out of it, doesnt really seem nice
ok, question: if you had already started a duty state prior to the infection, can you continue it or you have to end it
outer gyro
you can continue usually
as long as the duty state pic is on a post
don’t matter, they’ll accept it
and ofc if the leaderboard times match up etc etc but that’s not the point
hoary quarry
yeah but it's a problem when ard can't handle an outbreak quickly
i don't see as to why we should suffer
chilly oasis
The main issue is because there isn't enough or no ARD at all to handle infection outbreaks which is why they take so long.
https://prnt.sc/T6N9_KrNYOz6
Overall I agree with this suggestion. Infection outbreaks are just simply a big waste of time for most AEGIS personal since you just hug a wall in the hanger which can take hours depending on how many ARD are currently in-game which makes staying in the game pointless at that point, unless you happen to do a duty state prior to an infection outbreak.
chilly oasis
Explain to us, what makes it so bad?

I don't care.

look
u can always start duty states in outbreak
just start it
and take ur post picture
AT A POST
yall are actually dumb if you dont know how to do this
paper epoch
yes. just have them start it during outbreak but their post picture must actually be at a post
final walrus
bro really used aegis tutorials as a quote
do you know how much information used today regarding aegis rules or other related stuff is outdated
hoary quarry
hey, if it goes with my point, I'll quote anything
@gilded cipher i mean, the fact that you guys don't allow us to even do that is kinda the problem
plus rikka said it's a thing

what do you mean? go to a post and take a picture??
i meant like start your duty state without ur duty state post picture
once the outbreak ends
u can go and take a post picture
if its 1 hr long ez
2 duty states
once the outbreak ends go take those 2 duty state pictures
not that hard
livid meadow
i agree with what cowgashi said
hoary quarry
that's the point - these things take up a lot of time, and we cannot leave the fucking hangar
you will go after us, cuff us or get an SC to jail our asses
livid meadow
yyyes sounds about right
hoary quarry
you see???
hoary quarry
and even if we reset, there's probably an ARD/PKSF camping the spawn to cuff people
like i told one of you recently to let me take a DS pic, ya'll just ignored it and cuffed me to hangar
i mean, most of ARD wouldn't understand this since they don't have this stupid restriction
hoary quarry
I'd ask how it was to waste an hour in-game standing at a wall while receiving nothing in return, but chances are you never had this.
livid meadow
once again i’ve been non divisional at some point
not like i joined aegis and became ard
tranquil wolf
you do have to be a non-divisional before ard
you can't just go from wastelander to ard

right... and that somehow makes it better for non divisionals..?

listen have u read my entire fucking text ive said
you dont have to fucking leave the hangar, yk just take a picture in the bloody hangar against the wall
once the BLOODY outbreak ends
you THEN GO TO A POST
AND TAKE YOUR SCREENSHOT
if you cant do this its literally not our faults that you guys are just wasting an hour in game standing at a wall
you could always do duty states in outbreaks
u just gotta be smart about it
and also if you know its an outbreak and you cant do a duty state just leave
whats the point of you staying?
after the outbreak just rejoin the game
you have 24 hrs in a day
lets say 8 hours for sleep
2-3 hours for touching grass/meeting with friends
4 hours for playing other games
you still have like 10+ hours to do 2 duty states
both adds up to an hour
u dont necessarily have to do a duty state in an outbreak
but if u do want to do one
u gotta be smart about it
hoary quarry
rikka said you cannot start it during one
post don't even matter
also, why in the fuck would you assume my schedule, maybe I can only get on for an hour or two a day.
i don't want to waste the fucking time I have facing a wall
and getting nothing in return
like there's no fun, at least give us somethin else
it's not that different from posting at gates is it
gilded cipher
rikka said you cannot start it during one
tell me now how are they gonna know you started it in an outbreak? and also they barely enforce these types of shit
- im not assuming anyones schedule im just saying out of all 24 hrs in a day you can find at least 30 minutes to do another duty state and if an outbreak happens during that 30 minutes that you have been given then just try another date (you can always do duty states, its not like its a once in a lifetime thing) or do the method i said;
method:
start ur duty state with ur tablist, then after the outbreak ends just take a picture of u standing at a post, if the outbreak doesnt end in 30 minutes, just grab a picture of ur old duty state
im not tryna encourage anything here but like if u wanna start a duty state in an outbreak, just be smart about it
if u dont want to waste ur time facing a wall, too bad join a division or just leave the game and spend ur time on another game that gives you fun, you can always come back at a later date/time
divisionless posts are boring
yk why?
its encouraging you to join a division
if you dont want to join a division
then thats not really our fault is it?

Because hugging in the hanger isn't a considered a post so even if it happens in an outbreak or not they probably will most likely not accept it. And don't use the excuse "Just join a division" as it's simply a half decent way of solving the problem and It's stereotypical as well. Many more people will continue to complain about fact that outbreak take way too long to finish and it's simply just a waste of time for most AEGIS Personnel since they don't benefit from staying in an outbreak of too long.

listen what part of me saying "once the outbreak ends, you take a picture at a post" do u not understand im not tryna be rude here but like
well theres no other solutions if you dont wanna waste ur time facing a wall during an outbreak
if u complain about an outbreak taking too long to stop, why not join a division and help the efforts
even if you guys were allowed to roam around the facility
and not face a wall
what good will you serve?
you cant go out into the wasteland
and if you get infected with the infection
it just prolongs the outbreak even more
none of u can handle the raiders as well
thats why yall are complaining theyre p2w
so what good does a divisionless serve during an outbreak?
"just join a division" is literally a solution to this problem, infact
the only solution
so
