Foreigners Guide

Welcome! Welcome to Corvax Stations!

You have chosen, or been chosen, to relocate to one of one of the finest SS14 servers. And so, whether you are here to stay, or passing through on your way to parts unknown, welcome to Corvax Station.

Welcome, Foreigners!

This is a russian-speaking server, and you can join our party! Here is a small guide about playing as a foreign player. If you heard something bad about the Russians - it may be true, but most of the players here are friendly and kind. Some of them may speak english as well.

Have you come for a behaviour voucher?

If yes, then tell our admins about it! You can do it in Ahelp. We'll monitor your behaviour and issue you a voucher after two weeks of playing. Just don't break any rules.

A glance on a rules..

It's necessary to know the rules of our community, they are quite simple and designed to make everyone comfortable to play. Don't be scared to ask admins and other players(LOOC if its necessarily) about the rules, most of them are speaking english.

0. Don't be a dick! Obey administrator's orders, if any. Also, often players simply don't see that they are spoiling someone's game. If your actions are constantly irritating by other community members - most likely, you are doing something wrong. Don't abuse other players. Don't discuss any political topics. Don't flood or spam.

1. Don't grief! Please, don't kill anyone without a reason. Don't explode things, neither singulo nor AME.

2. Roleplay! Don't use memes and slang IC. Too much swearing is also a bad tone. Play realistic and natural characters in accordance with the game's lore (including in accordance with the profession, race, game mode). Metagame, with the exception of some cases, is prohibited. (Some cases - when knowledge that is not in the character's profession can generally have a positive effect on the game. Especially if the character can justify his knowledge and properly play the situation.) Powergame is bad. Reasonably evaluate the capabilities of your character. You're not in Vietnam, you're just an employee of peaceful(yet) Space Station. No OOC in IC or IC in OOC. No Erotic Roleplay(Kisses and hugs are allowed, of course). Don't coop. Server rules apply throughout the game process, even after the end of the round.

How to survive? :O

"So, I've read the rules, but how do i play, if everyone's talking Russian?" - Don't worry, i can help you!

Firstly click on "Персонализация" - Personalization, and create your character! Remember to make an approriate name. Don't forget to save! - Click both buttons named "Сохранить" - "Save".

Secondly - Choose a [job| Роли]! You'll be timelocked from choosing Officers, Engineers or Doctors, but don't worry, you won't have to play a lot to get them!

- "So, now i'm at the station. But what should i do now?" - You can explore the station, try overcome the language barrier, participate in events... But first, i recommend making a story for your character. How did you end up at our station? Well, here's some ideas, that you might use:

Tourist

"*Snap* -Oh... I've never seen so much vodka in one place..." You can play a tourist who flew here to see a distant station. Dress like a tourist, take a camera in the bar, and run around the station, photographing everything that gets in the way.

Businessman

"-How about 10 passengers from our station for 10 credits?" You are the representative of the station "...", flew in order to estimate the condition of the station and offer various deals. Put on your suit, take a briefcase, and act like you are very important.

Accidental Passenger

"-Oh god! I took the wrong shuttle!" Shit happens. You sat on the wrong shuttle, now you have to wait for the end of the shift. Can you survive that long? And why does everyone speak such a strange language?

So, thats it. You can do whatever you want, just remember the rules and try to be friendly.

Some phrases to use

Привет (Privet) - Hello

Я прилетел с другой станции (Ya priletel s drugoi stancii) - I flew from another station

Я знаю лишь несколько фраз на вашем языке (Ya znayu lish neskolko fras na vashem yazike) - I only know a few phrases in your language

Я турист (Ya turist) - I am a tourist

Я оказался здесь случайно (Ya okasalsya zdes sluchaino) - I happened to be here by accident

Я не виноват! (Ya ne vinovat!) - It's not my fault! (It wasn't me)

Бегите! (Begite!) - Run!

Tips & Tricks

- The main thing is to find a person/several people at the station, who knows English. - Feel free to press "Admin Help" to ask them anything. Most of them are talking eng. and probably will help you. - If you want - you can join our Discord!
