We’ve taken the world of Red Dead Redemption II, and made our own version of it - as the State of New Harmony - and we’ve got a whole bunch of different mechanics and abilities available to everyone!
-
Harvesting:
Many of the props within the world can be “harvested” from - such as getting corn from the fields near Rhodes, milk from milk jugs, and much more. You will also find many of the herbs and plants available in Red Dead Online within our world, all placed in unique spots inspired by the base game.
-
Crafting:
Almost everything you find can be used, or crafted into a usable item at one of the many crafting props found throughout the world. Use stoves to cook food, campfires for basic provisions, workbenches for tools and illegal items, and much more.
-
Buying & Selling:
Almost every item you can craft, or that you craft with, can be bought and sold in stores throughout the State, with some stores having higher prices, and showing preference, for certain items. We’ve also built and established custom markets in Saint Denis and Blackwater, which handle more specialist and unique items when compared to General Stores!
Law enforcement within CrownRP is handled primarily by the New Harmony Sheriffs Office, with guidance from the United States Marshals Service.
-
Roleplay First:
We encourage all of our deputies to put roleplay above all else, rather than becoming law enforcement machines strictly bound to standard operating procedures and policies. We have found that this leads to a much better roleplay experience for everyone on all sides of any situation, as it allows more room for situations to be played out.
-
Actions, Consequences:
Law enforcement is trained to respond and react accordingly, with roleplay in mind, to any and all arrests that they make. As such, small-time crime will generally be served locally in a Sheriffs Office or Police Department, with higher-profile crimes, such as murder, resulting in considerably higher amounts of time, and fines, for those found guilty - which may be served in Sisika Penitentiary.
It’s often said that crime doesn’t pay, but that’s not always true as smart crime will absolutely pay you handsomely.
-
Petty Crime:
With the previously mentioned harvesting system, comes a wide range of petty crime as just because you can take something, doesn’t mean it’s always going to be legal. For example, farmers aren’t going to be thrilled about you taking their crops to line your own pockets, and Annesburg miners won’t be thrilled about having their supplies taken.
-
Burglary
You see that cash register? You can break into it.
That chest at the foot of a bed? With the right tools you can crack it open.
Rather than setting up a series of pre-defined locations that we thought should be robbable, we use a system where we can allow any prop in the game to be robbed - with rewards ranging from a few items, to quite a few dollars in value.
-
Player-to-Player Robberies
Law enforcement aren’t the only ones that can search other people and seize items - after all, why would they be? You can hold up, search, and take items from any other character in the server - allowing you to be the highwayman you’ve always dreamed of.
-
Bank Robberies
As it’s the ultimate score, we’ve decided that bank robberies shouldn’t be a “one-and-done” kind of task. As such, our bank robbery system is unique in it’s requirement for several items, several people, and a cunning plan to avoid law enforcement - and it’s only going to get bigger and better with an upcoming overhaul that we have in the works!
-
Untaxed Goods
Brewing your own beer or cider is unlikely to get you in a lot of trouble in New Harmony, but moonshine is another matter entirely!
-
… More:
There are a variety of higher-profile crimes that can be committed on CrownRP, but we’d rather you found those out through roleplay, in-game!
Above all else, our top priority with CrownRP is to put roleplay first and create a community within which anyone can find themselves welcome to play their character, and create stories together.
-
Here For You:
We want to work with our community to create, and enable the creation of, immersive and engaging roleplay stories. Whether you have a simple question, or a storyline idea you want feedback on, we can always be reached through Discord and are always happy to chat with community members.
-
Safety First:
The end of the 1800’s wasn’t a pleasant time for many people, which is something we aren’t aiming to replicate with CrownRP - which is why we refer to our version fo 1899 as a “Romanticized Version of The Old West.” The atrocitries, prejudices, and hatefulness of the time is not, and will never be, present within our roleplay or our community.
