In the near off future the world has changed and yet stayed the same. People work, get sick, grow old, getting hit with the troubles of life and of course they play...
With VR headsets being the norm, traditional gaming has all but vanished and the E-Sports arena has exploded in terms of worth and content. Exchanging millions of dollars on the Global stage, in the wake of the failure of Sword Art Online and the fiasco that resulted in the deaths of over three thousand people. NerveGear was pulled, but VR continued, with Gun Gale Online becoming a global hit. Following the success of Bullet of Bullets and Squad Jam, the highly secretive Zaskar Company has announced a new tournament in partnership with multiple partners across the globe for a new Battle Royale tournament..
Operation Typhoon; A global multipart tournament that adds two new zones to the world map and as an inclusion chosen players or GM's of GGO playing the part of world bosses in attacking players suddenly and without mercy. World bosses are worth lots of points which can be used to grant special supplies and the revival of downed teammates.
To the South East of the Old Map is the New Jungle Biome and to the South West is the new vast sprawling Tundra with it's ice shelfs, introducing new and callable vehicle drops. This new Expansion promises to offer sudden changes to the gameplay, offering high intensity conflict and regional weather patterns to an already massive world.[/COLOR]
*The Director would like to remind you, Helicopters are not yet implemented into the game.*
In the city of Okayama, you among others have been selected to take part of the Sato Group's sponsored team. Though the Sato Group is not known for it's... goodness. A shadow cabal that may or may not be a Yakuza front with dealings in pharmaceuticals. You have been given an offer that was too good to be true or coerced into accepting the agreement. For your service in the tournament, various problems in your life will be taken care of. Though a couple of rules are in place and the pain sensors have been modified to provide valuable research data on treating trauma patients.
Were you among the students of Kagouya High School, faced with the closure of your club given the taking of funds? Were you a NEET or gambling addict that simply got your debts too far? A child of a sick parent, or the parent of a sick child who badly needed money? Or just pro gamer looking to win millions in yen?
Either way you all are now part of the Sato Group in the largest gun battle of GGO history. Facing off with teams across Japan and the world. Will you forge bonds as strong as a hail of fire, or will you fall and collapse into it?
(Feel free to inquire or state intent to join in this thread. I will organize bios to reduce time in searching if there is clutter as they are made. Or just..you know, join the discord?)
GM: @RedArmyShogun Co-GM's @Karyra, @Astros - Player pool limit 12~ Aimed Limit 8 Players. Slots open 0*

GGO is a VRMMO Set in a post apoc world with Scifi and gunplay being it's key features. A PVE/PVP game that has a unique Credits to Cash feature, allowing players to make a living, even if modest from being a player of the game. Of course one could also transfer Cash to Credits, given this GGO is in the near future THE premier in E-sports, though it's shadowy nature makes it more of Anonymous Quality to it's viewers and donors with little in the way of Mass Media Coverage.
The following sections are to teach you the bare basics of the AU prior knowledge of GGO and SAO IS NOT REQUIRED.
-
~~~Basic Info and Terms~~~
Bullet Line & Bullet Circle: In GGO an Defensive/Auto Aim Feature is integrated into the game. When a player takes aim with a weapon and shows hit percentage, wind speed and other factors, significantly aiding a player in scoring a hit, all with a slight squeeze of the trigger. At close range this feature is of less value and some weapons will have a large Bullet Circle regardless. Smaller = more Accurate.
This Feature will appear in the RP largely as flavor text. This feature is often considered vital to snipers who have limited ammo and who's first shot gives away their position. As a heartbeat system is coupled with the game to monitor for stress, the best hit conditions are often between beats, with a one second chance. Because of this Snipers are not as prolific as in analog titles of the 20th Century.
As a counter measure to this feat Bullet Line was implemented, a nonsensical way to dodge weapons fire, a red laser line will protrude from the end of the weapon, showing weapon arc and velocity. However this is only showcased on a Snipers first shot for a brief period of time and on foes an enemy can directly see or has spotted within the last 60 seconds. For Automatic weapons not all shots are shown.
However of note, some few players can aim and fire within a hairs breath, firing before the system can be activated, such players are far and few between and almost all have previous experience as hunters or snipers.
PDA: The PDA is, well a PDA. It has a world map and the ability to call in respawns or support, typically only the Team leader carries this.
HUD Display: Like Videogames of the 20th Century GGO has an integrated HUD and menu system, with a more limited map than the PDA this is how you access your player storage, inventory management, transfer funds, etc etc.
Credits: The Income of GGO, credits buy weapons & Ammo, and miscellaneous items. As of December 2025 the Exchange rate was 100 Credits to 1 Yen. What the Value of the Yen is towards the Dollar in this time Period can be guessed at best, but we will be running with the current exchange rate of roughly 100 to 1.
FullDive System: The VR in the VRMMO. This is the headset that the player wears, to well, play the game. The Most infamous and banned example is the NerveGear which lead to the deaths of thousands in the SAO incident. While many designs and types exsist the technology has non-gaming uses in the medical industry. While far safer than NerveGear with a health monitoring and automatic disconnect system the VR device still interfaces with the brain, able to create the sensations of pain, sight, sound, smell and taste within a player's mind.
Because of this GGO offers various food and drink items and some users have been know to..use more, ahem, adult features in the privacy of a city Inn. Your devices have been provided and Modified by the Sato Group to more accurately reflect the intensity of Pain for the purpose of medical research, though the automatic disconnect and EMT notification features are left untouched.
~~~RP Rules & Features~~~
First let's go over the rules, you godless heathens. I'll keep this brief as I can.
~ No Sexy sex times. While I will allow and even encourage relationships keep anything more adult to PM's while a little giggly fade to black event could be allowed, do nothing past this. We are not a Red Star Rp.
~ While GGO has some censors in place for extremely graphic acts of violence, such as no entrails or blood being a red cross grid, dismemberment and blunt damage can happen and brutally so. By joining this RP, you agree to not take issue with this and start a Mexican standoff with me and the staff.
~ Keep Cursing to moderation. You are getting shot at, under stress, some of you are in bad straights, course you'll cuss. But please don't make your posts like a Rap Video. No one wants to see this.
~ GM Decisions are final, while I will work with you and come to a common agreement, the word of I and my Co-GM's is final. I plan to operate in as fair a manner as possible. But this won't be a situation of twenty cooks in the Kitchen.
~ Yes, you have to be connected to the town or the Sato Group's shenanigans in some manner. The Teams are being entered into a tournament that has a significant cash prize and a global audience. So yes you must be on the team. Think of your local sports team adding in or changing players mid season, this just does not or very rarely happens.
~ Creativity is encouraged. If you have an idea you would like to see implemented, npc's, bosses or the like please tell us about it in the IC Talk section of the RP or via DM. An investment in the RP for yourself is not a bad idea.
~ Please be reasonable in your requests, no, I won't let you have a Vulcan 20mm on a power armor while driving an M1A1 around at 70mph.
~ Posting Expectations are Intermediate to advanced. Two Paragraphs Minimum. Posting speed will be twice to once a week, factors dependent. If you can post faster than this, then please do so, I will welcome it and may go fast myself. Please do not constantly wait to do this at the last minute, if RP is a chore to you, you are doing it wrong. I will be reasonable if IRL issues come up, but delays or constant absences will lead to removal from the RP.[/COLOR]
~This and the following list are subject to change.
~~~Features~~~
These are just Mechanics that will take place in the RP.
~ Roll of Fate. At Random in the announcements (a) player(s) will be asked to roll a D10 or a D20 in their following post. The numbers in this will be gone over in each instance and is totally Chance, while this mechanic will not be overused it shall decide keyoutcomes. In the rare case everyone gets a bad roll, I'll call upon the DM Magic and emergency stim pack. This can result in triggering a trap or finding an enemy that's hidden, among other things.
~ Respawning and Death: While your IRL Avatar is not likely to die over the course of the game (or so I hope :/) your PC can and likely will. In the case of player Death, in previous tournaments you would be returned to the central lobby and left to watch the battles finish, in the case of this one, you will be transferred to a "Waiting Room". In this Waiting Room you will remain, possibly with players from your own or the enemy team. Once enough Points are recovered you'll respawn at full health, although with your previous ammo loadout that you had upon death.
~ Healing and dismemberment: In GGO it is possible to heal over time or with the use of med and stim packs if an ally reaches you quickly enough. Limbs can be blown off in GGO but with enough time they will regenerate as good as new. In the case of this RP, Time may be a post round or two, this will be talked about at a later date to reach a common agreement.
~ Points and how they work: Points are earned from killing enemy types, in practice it's not likely I will actually issue points, at least not directly, I may make a common points pool in the OOC that is used to call in respawns, resupply or to call in vehicles and some AFV's (Tank's, APC's) The unit commander will largely decide this, or a surviving player. Fate rolls might be tied to AFV Purchases but most of these will be early Cold War or think skinned transports, do not count on them to carry you to victory.
This is largely flavor text to justify random bullshit and to get you back into the rp proper if you die, I and I alone will likely deal with this.
~ World Bosses and Elite Teams: World bosses are skilled players or Moderators/Devvelopers of the Game, these are either skilled players or heavily geared ones that have some HP bonus points. While they are worth a lot of points they often come with absurd skills, great weapons and armor. Elite Teams are those which will be in some chapters or endings who are favored to win, they will be teams of fully outfitted and Armed groups of players. Having overcame obstacles as our own has, they are used to working in a Team. In either case these will be worth the most points and are the focal point of each chapter, canon characters may make an appearance but it is unlikely.
~Abillities: GGO has an ability system that is gained by two ways one is a unique player skill and the other is a Generic. Unique are things like Eagle Sight, Reading lips, detecting enemies, operating heavy vehicles, advanced acrobatics or being unable to get lost in the world. Generics are common things like, Mechanic, Trap setting, Gun creations, Blade Creation, scavenging and so on. Generally these are perks to the character and offer some variety. Examples will be posted in my bio.
~ Battle Royale Rules: Please see the OOC for details on Radar Scans, last man standing and team Elimination. This may be a bit long and I felt this has dragged on long enough.
