We need to talk - RC:RP 2025

Well that clip is a throwback.
From what I remember being in PD 'lesser or equal force' in regards to picking what weapon to use against a criminal was preached. Obviously to make the scenario more enjoyable so both sides have a chance at 'winning' the encounter. Maybe this mentality got lost over time.

My 2 cents as overall feedback.
Remove the lengthy written applications required for joining core factions like PD and FD. In my experience, once someone is accepted, no one actually refers back to what was written in their application. Most of the time, it's a generic backstory with a slight twist and it becomes irrelevant, especially if the player changes their name or creates a new LEO character.

The application process should be simplified. Long, essay-style forms can be a major turn-off for potential new players and might discourage them from sticking around. I understand the concern that this could lead to an influx of less experienced or lower-skilled members joining important factions. But instead of throwing them aside completely, let them in and guide them. Help them improve. I would imagine that it’s far more valuable to mentor a weaker player than to reject them outright and risk losing a potential new long-term member of the community.

Hi,

Our current hiring process for RCSD addresses your concerns — we now follow a very streamlined & succinct process that ensures both productivity and quality; we will no longer be considering long essay-style forms as a means to evaluate applicants but rather keep it interactive through an IG interview to thoroughly evaluate each candidate's RP & English; more information regarding that on our forums. The current hiring process model that we're trying out for RCSD is as follows:
Application > Interview > Final Exam > Field Training
As for the field training part, we’ve also taken appropriate steps to ensure it aligns well with the game. It now takes a minimum of 12 days to complete the program and become a full-fledged member of the faction, and a much shorter time to join the faction through recruitment if you are consistently active. We will be testing this new system with the relaunch with plans to open our entry-level recruitment within the first 10 days of the relaunch.


FD are adopting a similar concept as well in regards to hiring, the application is more streamlined without the fear of a narrative section in the application. With having a more centralised focus through the interview more than the application itself so we can assess players RP & English.
