CI isn't the Chaos Insurgency anymore

CI isn't the Chaos Insurgency anymore
Sep 29, 2022


All these recent changes have seemed to make CI so much more regulated- it looks less appealing for the average player and isn't very unique anymore
the entire point of the CHAOS insurgency is to act as one of the main enemies of the foundation on this server (outside of SCPs), but with recent changes like RULES OF ENGAGEMENT WITH FOUNDATION PERSONNEL it really seems like the chaos insurgency isn't anything to be feared anymore. Just make sure to bolster EZ garage every 45 minutes for when they inevitably raid since they can't do anything to you without being demoted.

Same goes the other way, now if CI/Nu7 see each other on the surface they'll both have a staredown out of fear of demotion. I could go the path of saying this isn't realistic RP- why would 2 enemy factions not attack each other when they are actively at war with each other?

Hell, the new CoC makes CI even less unique, now all the faction is is a MTF with a different skin that raids foundation base once every 45 minutes.
The funny business we all remember going on inside the base is now gone, you'll be striked/demoted for having fights with each other in base and are expected to play chess or something while waiting for a raid.
From what I've seen there are also mandatory weekly trainings, making CI less appealing to someone who doesn't want to invest as much time into this server. It seems like all the reasons people would once join CI for are going away. It was a fun regiment with lax leaders where you could have some fun and raid a base. The camaraderie is gone.

All of this is to say that the Chaos Insurgency isn't the embodiment of chaos anymore, (I think) it's too regulated and isn't unique anymore. It's a regulated militia.

What reason is there to even join CI once the new GOC comes out, especially if you're only allowed to be in 2 groups at once (what i'm saying is everyone will flock to join Foundation and GOC), the "main gameplay loop" of this server is foundation, so almost everyone would rather give up roles in a minor faction (CI) to join the new and content heavy GOC.

What's anyone elses thoughts on this?

Ok guys, this has been reported to both SL and NL. Necro posting isn't cool and comes with a 60 year ban off forums if you're not careful...
 
I don't know about CI UK (genuinely don't, I haven't paid attention), but CI USA have been doing some amazing raids and have very solid activity all the times I'm on. But yeah the ever-present boogeyman of being reported and dogpiled on is inescapable in all RP servers it seems.
