Space Station 13's Secret Club - A History of Lifeweb

  • It only took me about 3 years, but I'm finally following up on my promise to explore the history of specific servers in Space Station 13. Starting things off with my longtime favorite, Lifeweb. I can't even begin to explain how much I love this game, the level of immersion and role-play experiences it provides. Not to mention it's deeply inspired by things I absolutely love like A Song of Ice and Fire, the World of Darkness and Dwarf Fortress. There isn't a ton of recorded history around Lifeweb, so much of my history comes from the combined efforts of many players and my own experience. If I get something wrong, please let me know below so it can be corrected for the record. Dreamer is still best antag btw

    A big thank you to all the people in the hideout who helped me (Sorry if I forget to list you) :
    Randy, Lagius, Hydrated, Sloopoke, Persona, Fizbun, Neray, Bonekat, Cody, Grifferman, Etorix and Nobelissimo. You guys all helped me curate a collection of rare screen shots, fact check things and provide amazing stories from over the years.

      I was a migrant, with a family. We lived in the caves. I fell down a pit, and broke my spine. My family did not abandon me, and instead worked their asses off to scrape together a lot of money to afford a spinal surgery. We entered ravenheart, and I was taken in to successfully have my spine repaired. In the time it took, every single one of my family members were killed by street thugs.
      I wanted to walk again, but not like this.

      In the past a horde of skeletons took over the fortress and killed everyone. A dozen drank milk at the inn; one pretended to be the Pusher and sold heroin en-masse, and the Baron skeleton had his own mock-jester.

    Sunday club was a complete joke. A lot of people who wanted it got it and Randy proceeded to never add anyone to it again no matter who asked or was referred. Eventually Server 2 took over in population solely because people got tired of the dying server. I won't lie though the first few dozens rounds were the freshest breath of air compared to the non-stop fragfest every round was back in the 2015/16 era. My fondest memories of this game was probably during the Lowtown map

      It was a wild time not just in terms of gameplay but in community. Randy had gone completely silent for a very long time. A woman named "Len" attempted to worm her way in and got a bunch of people to sign up for a new forum with her even going so far as to say Randy was done with Lifeweb and moving on. The people were honestly stranger and more unhinged than they are now. I miss those times but everything eventually ends@@lavalamp505

      Best time was 2018, coming from someone who played since 2015, best community, amazingly dynamic and competent migrant community with tons of interactive milieu and cities popping up in the caves that made every round unique (95 percent round skip rate btw since I almost exclusively play migrant)

    It's funny, I actually found the Waiting Room initially, before I ended up (against all odds) bumping into a long time player. When I mentioned that Lifeweb might be up their alley, due to some of the stuff they were developing at the time, they actually brought me aboard. My first game was pure chaos as I panicked to remember the controls, and my role, and then people were talking to me. I think my 'dad' for that session clocked that I was brand new, but had enough know-how to at least be somewhat immersive, so he took me off to the side to teach me about certain aspects. He also hit on the Innkeeper lady, and we all had an incredibly wholesome ending to a round where he asked her out and I got a step-mom! Arguably a great first impression.
    Marred by the next rounds. The one round where I played a guard for a noble coming into Ravenheart wasn't too bad, went without incident. The round where I played the child apprentice was some of my worst. I wanted to roleplay learning how smithing works, and while I did learn a little bit of it at the time, my forge master was really insistent on using the tutoring mechanic, which for some reason had this little quirk where you had to nod to their prompt IMMEDIATELY after they spewed their generated dialog. This meant I had to focus less on what was actually being said and more about hitting the button at the right timing which took me out of it. The second time I played child apprentice was arguably the fucking worst: forge master SSD'd, the other apprentice took the hammer and ran the fuck off, and I couldn't get the merchant to ship in a new one, meanwhile the king is getting impatient with the lack of spears being made and just, not giving a shit that I physically couldn't make anything, and finally, the mort broke into the basement, ganked me and kidnapped me for power-torture-play while putting me on the lifeweb. At that point my character was having an anger-filled breakdown with how bullshit their day was, and the mort just kept saying some edgy dumb bs and not really roleplay with me in any capacity.
    And then he cut my tongue out. Which not only disabled my say function, but my '/me' function as well, which I'd been using almost exclusively for any dialogue and roleplay. That shit killed my enjoyment. I liked playing as a Fortune Teller since I could roleplay some bullshit, I had money and a number of other cool things, including my own home! But ultimately, anytime I tried to dig deeper, it felt like the mechanics tripped up my ability to roleplay if the players weren't already infringing on it. I didn't even think to donos the guy at the time because of how shocked I was that anyone would do that without a genuine roleplay reason.

    Because I have a thing for being honest about what to expect, I should probably let prospective newfriends know that this is a game where there are things that will just flash shock images on your screen just for the sake of "edge". There are plenty of interesting things to be done in this game, but if what I mentioned sours an experience for you, you can safely pass on this one.

    You've probably never heard of one of Space Station 13's oldest and most popular servers, you won't ever find it on the server hub, and these days you're likely only going to gain access if you're lucky enough to know a long time player. With a deeply dedicated fan base and slavish devotion from its sole developer, Lifeweb offers a deeply immersive experience unlike any other. Heavily inspired by classic media like Baldur's Gate War Fortress and A Song of Ice and Fire, Lifeweb focused heavily on immersive role play, the game takes place on the planet of Evergreen, deep underground in a fortress which is technologically regressed in many ways to a medieval setting after spending ages under a recently fallen force field that protected it from the horrors roaming outer space. Where Lifeweb differs from your typical server is in its fantastic dedication to atmosphere. You would be hard pressed to find any action in the game that does not feature excellent sound design paired with gorgeous art design. With its hands off moderation, the community is free to tell the story as they will it. No two rounds are ever the same and it's no surprise when you can regularly find players who have several thousand rounds played, even though you only find the game upon weekends. I've heard it said that role play is used to enhance the mechanics of Space Station 13, but in lifeweb mechanics serve to enhance the role play time to stop gushing and get into the history. Our story begins sometime in late 2011. Long time Space Station player by the byond Key of RandySandy began to notice some disturbing changes in the direction of the game. The old role play focused community who had come to love the game for its immersive sessions and parody of sci-fi classics, has slowly begun to be replaced with players wanting a different experience. The game began to turn into something more akin to Second Life, with the focus moving more towards silly additions and strict moderation than a focus on deepening immersive roleplay. Coincidentally, the team behind Bay 12 Luna had made their code open source and merged with TG already With a solid foundation and joined by the more roleplay minded members of the Russian community, Randy continued the development of Luna, first creating a new, smaller, more atmospheric map titled NSV Magellan, tweaking the traditional S13 lore and instead placing the world within the System Shock Universe advertising his new server on the S13 RU forums as Euphoria 12. Most of the first comments are calling out bugs, complaining about the lack of stuff to do, or suggesting design changes. But the seed of what would become Lifeweb was planted. By December of 2011, Euphoria had gone offline, the thread archived, and Randy disappeared for a time, reappearing again in early 2012 after a momentary seize from a hardcore narcotics bust by the FSB, don't shove horse anesthetics up your ass boys

    A nice and informative video that even taught me as Lifeweb regular some of new things of the games history.
    Since this took such a long time to make some things are outdated, but nothing major.
    What I would have liked was a mention of the wiki and how it's intended purpose is different from the massive pages of regular SS13 servers. Though the video is lovely anyway.
    All in all, a good look at how we got here.

It's so crazy seeing this video unlocking memories that are only foggy and distant due to how much the game was changing and how many maps there were. Also the interzone website.... Lmao.... What a place. Anyway I've been banned for like almost 6 years now from the game and the discord and anyone I used to talk to back then doesn't care about it anymore. So it's incredibly difficult to keep up with what is even happening on the inside due to how much of a secret club it is now.

    I will always love migrating regardless of Randy's desire to hobble the best part of the game. Ive been getting so advanced that beyond making towns and trying to make interesting dynamics i make complex traps using the extremely underutilized mechanism system to make repeaters, autistic trapped shotguns behind doors that when you step on a pressure plate in front of the door, the door opens and the shotgun rapid fires using a pair of pressure plates in a pit with doors pushing a stone block back and forth to rapid fire it, i also made a gas chamber using the stone block drop as a latch to permanently turn on impulse activators, like this. Dig down stair, make hallway down stair, put an open trap door at the top of the stair. Chest at end of hallway, chest is hooked up via mechanism to a trapdoor with a stone block on top of it, when activayed block falls into a pit with an optional stairwell to reset it, stone block drops on a pressure plate in the pit. Permanently closing the only escape for people in the hallway. Then many campfires at either end of the hallway sides protected by fortifications have gryab dropped down into them. Filling the hall with fire and superheated gas. An easy way to capture suffocated prey for sacrifice or enslavement. Easier trap: pit with trap door, pressure plate on trap door, conmect the presssure plate to the trap door via mechanism, when someone steps on the trap door it opens then immediately closes behind them, allowing you to collect as many people as you need since you cant directly destroy trap doors from below, its basically a mechanically programmable impenetrable door

      Never found myself backing the staff team before but i think its fair to say that having little in the way of oversight has done quite a lot for the roleplay experience,that being said some people can roleplay a cannibal ra*ist p*do a little too well... i hate helicopter staff teams fervently,most of SS13 is p much locked off from me because an act as simple as C4ing an atmospheric gas tank in maints is a bwoinkable offense(true story) but i do think thats its important to have an admin presence anyway to ward off the degenerate masses@@KalashVodka175

    I used to skulk in pigpen for potential new dudes that seemed alright, but they nuked access after someone had a contest or some shit and mass invited people.
    Also Map 5 SUCKED ASS. I joined sometime during 4 and couldn’t get a grip on the game. Learned through trial by fire going migrant every round eventually. Unfortunately missed a lot of 4 because of it and suffered with 5 for ages. 6 was an actual godsend in comparison, I don’t remember that many people complaining about it until we got new ones to be honest. Mostly people complain about 7(Streets) it seems. Also I was in the minority that liked burrows I guess haha.
    Also the removal of Wanderlust is the most criminal thing Randy’s ever done to the game. Most of my most memorable moments come directly from that mode.
    Great video though dude. Honestly a lot of stuff I didn’t even know about despite being in the community since 2016.

    Don't feel bad if you cannot get in. Just like regular SS13, le epic stories are few and far between and it's a huge waste of time that's pretty boring most of it. For me it wasn't worth it and in all likelihood it might end up being the same for you.
