Change the lore.

Post by DeadLantern » 29 Sep 2016, 22:55

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
So, the official wiki says that SS13 CM takes place in 2150, but the Sulaco was built in 2169! And Aliens take place in 2179!

The way I see is that SS13 CM could take place between 2169 and 2179, as an OP that was blacklisted and removed. The actual cannon is that the Sulaco survives the Aliens and the opratives that survived are told not to say anything or they shall be executed. Sort of a SOG thing, like in our universe. We would just have to change the website.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Would make it lore friendly, maybe even flirty.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
It won't change the gameplay, only the RP.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Change the website and tell everyone that CM is now taking place some time between 2069 and 2079.

I've always felt like 2150 is too early. I'd like to see the timeline pushed up to 2164.

I'd also prefer to change the name of the ship to unteather us from the actual Sulaco and its lore.
USS Almayer was my top choice.

Yeah, Sulaco was good with Nostromo. Now we have another ship, that deserves another name.

BUMP

For possible relevancy due to a new ship in the works?
