Nogville
NogVille (full name — Nogova Village) is a RPG mission aiming to put players in athmosphere of constant fighting and tension between police and criminals — for control of island and it’s citizens, and between citizens themselves — for money, respect and abilities.
This NogVille «mini-state» allows you to maintain justice or to be cornered beast yourself. Fellow civilians can fully feel their impotence under crimes and/or police brutality.
Full freedom of action — you can play your role and try to dominate other players or enjoy yourself with something different. The mission has many possibilities to fullfill your most interesting and insidious ideas.

POLICE. This is team of players who set up rules of NogVille. Interest of the game is depending on them. Players in police team must be skilled and aware of the rules of NogVille.
What makes this NogVille different from others’ versions, it is that police can’t arrest you for nothing. They can do it if you have negative rating. You will gain it IF:
- You rob banks and other players;
- You maraud;
- You is engaged in racketeering;
- You hurt police;
- You kill player;
- You grow weed;
- You do «criminal» missions;
- You commit act of terrorism;
- You bribe police;
- In some cases you can be arrested even if you didn’t do anything yet (if you have «Killer» specialization or if you playing in mafia team, be ready for that). This is to maintain conflict between two sides from the start of the game.
Starting from version 5.6 players can see what you have negative rating for. Negative rating will only disappear after you go to jail. There’s no other way to get rid of it.
It doesn’t really matter what you did. If you have negatibe rating — you are a criminal and you will be hunted by police. There’s situations when system «can’t see» your crime, but that doesn’t mean your hands are clean. Almost all these situations described later. So don’t be surprised if police start shooting at you, while you don’t have any negative rating.
POLICEMAN will shoot at you (sometimes without warning), IF:
- You shoot/aim at him, try to run him over, interrupt his work.
- You use forbidden weapons (see below).
- You aim at him (100% shooting)
- You do not obey his orders. Like: «Stop for checking», «Drop weapons», «Surrender», «Leave car», «Go away» and so on. Police don’t have any right to issue you orders like: «Give me all your money», «Climb that house and jump down», «Leave your car, it’s mine now» etc.
- You support unlawful actions. You give police false information, you help criminals (e.g. help them to escape).
- You are in police depot\vehicle without permission.
*P.S.: Primary weapons (first slot) are forbidden by default. Police can select «No weapons’ mode and any armed player will be attacked (you can see current mode in your Player Status via radio 0-0-1). Police can change mode once in two minutes.
*P.P.S: While robbing bank robber steals money from all accounts. After successful robbery work of bank pauses and inflation rates go high for some time.
→ CHECK
Policeman says player’s nickname and says: «Сheck». It can be: «Stop» etc. But often policeman don’t even have time to do it. He may just aim at you or shoot in your direction.
When you see policeman aimimg at you or shooting and you’re innocent — you must do these simple tasks:
1. Stop.
2. Turn your back to him.
3. Weapons on the back. If you have forbidden weapons — drop it.
4. Wait for policeman and his orders.
In most common scenario he’ll just check if you have «Arrest» action. If you don’t have «Arest» action he’ll let you go. You can be arrested only if you have negative rating (see above).
→ SIREN
All the police vehicles is equipped with the siren. If you heard the siren nearby, it means that in this area policemen observe an increased level of danger. In this case, if you do not want to attract the attention of the Police, the following actions should be taken:
1. Stop immediately (even if you was just released).
2. Weapons on the back. If you have forbidden weapons — drop it.
3. Wait for policeman and his orders. If he ignored you, you can move on.
Remember! If you try to move or run anywhere with the siren on (and you do not have a negative rating), this can be regarded as disobeying orders, and the police can kill you!
*P.S. The siren should only be turned on in case of emergency (when there is no time to stop everyone or if you want to stop a fast car) and chasing the criminal. In fact, the activated siren informs all players nearby — «Stop for checking!».
*P.P.S. Helicopters and M113 don’t have a siren!
→ SHOOT AT POLICE
It is NOT allowed to shoot a policeman, regardless of anything or under any circumstances. Fire on the policeman, including the returning fire, immediately turns you into a criminal. Even if the policeman shoots at you, in your direction, if it seems to you that it is unfair. If you are completely innocent, but you’re firing back — you will be shooted at and killed.
→ RESTRICTIONS FOR POLICEMEN
A policeman can be kicked out of the game (sometimes without an explanation of the reason) in case he can not fulfill his role (killing teammates, helping criminals, compromising police, co-operation with civilians or mafia, and any other actions aimed at weakening the order on the Island).
→ REPORTING ABOUT CRIME
It is not uncommon for policemen to need the help of ordinary players. For example, in capturing a criminal. In this case, it is advisable to help them — remember, they protect you from criminals!
For your help, you can ask for a reward. Ask, not demand! After all, it is the duty of any citizen of his country to help maintain order. And in that case, perhaps, the police can thank you in some way.
In the same vein, it is not advisable to deliberately inform the police about incorrect or unverified information. Sooner or later, the deception will be found out, and you can earn the Police’s most attention.
POLICE must stop attempts of illegal enrichment and arrest criminals. MAIN TASK — preservation of power and order on the island.
MAFIA must terrorize the police and civilians and set up a genocide. MAIN TASKS — earn 3 000 000 Kn to participate in the upcoming election campaign for the post of President of the Republic of Nogova, and thereby «legally» take over the power over the island.
CIVILIANS do whatever they want. MAIN TASK — earn 3 000 000 Kn by any means to participate in the upcoming election campaign for the post of President of the Republic of Nogova. It will depend on you whether the republic will be able to get out of the economic crisis.
*P.S.: The first 10 players who earned 3 000 000 Kn and who participated in the presidential elections are included in the WINNERS LIST!!*
The game may end for the following reasons:
- One of the players earned 3 000 000 Kn for the elections campaign.
- Time out — 4 hour (necessary to prevent desync on the server). In this case, the final of the mission will depend on the situation on the island.
- There’s no police. Police MUST participate in the game.
In cases 1) and 2), after announcing end of the game, all players have extra time 5-6 minutes. Their actions will not affect anything, but they have an opportunity to finish their business.
- Arrest civilians and the Mafia with a negative rating (for more details, see Rules);
- Destroy cannabis;
- Use sattelite (SHIFT + LMB on the map);
- Set rules for the current game;
- FREE to arm, take transport and respawn in the POLICE DEPOT;
- Receive a salary that is a certain percentage of the amount of taxes collected;
- Use automatic station RLS R-196-B1.
MAFIA and CIVILIANS can:
- Rob the bank;
- Send messages to each other using pager (ad. numbers — Police (156) and Tech Support (202)). All sent and received messages stored in PDA «PSION» («Notes»);
- Select specialization;
- Set marker «Warning! Cops\mafias in nearby!» on map (SHIFT + LMB on the map);

*P.S.: The main difference between the civilians and the Mafia is that civilians can both enrich themselves with legal methods and enjoy the help and protection of policemen, and commit crimes and steal money. The Mafia is forced to wage a constant war with the police, commit acts of terrorism and can not enrich itself legally (although, if the Mafiosi really want to lead an honest life, he can risk).
*P.P.S.: It should also be noted that TeamKill (the killing of the player of his side) and RespKill (killing at the respawn) is NOT PUNISHED by KICK or BAN for the Mafia and civilians and is prohibited only for policemen. (That is, the server administrator can kick or ban only policemen who committed an unreasonable TeamKill — killing teammates). Killing players is a common thing in NogVille.
POLICEMAN’S, MAFIAN’S and CIVILIAN’S can:
- Use shops, a bank and ATMs;
- Transfer cash from hand to hand;
- Use PDA «PSION» (Personal Digital Assistant by «PSION»).
Spectators (Side — USSR) can:
- Watch the game process and make sure that the game is fair (without any cheats);
Spectators (Side — USSR) can NOT:
- Tell in the game chat (as well as in other ways) the location and activities of individual players. Violation will be penalized by kick or ban (actual servers of [4RTech])
In NogVille v.5.6 you can select specialization depending on that you want to do in game. For the civilians (Businessman, Dealer, Investor,Freelancer and Priest), for the mafia (Killer, Robber, Drug dealer, Hacker, Racketeer and Extremist) and neutral (Archeologist — available for civilians and mafia).
Every specialization have it’s advantages (E.g. Businessman — stalls and facilities give more income). But to keep the game balanced every specialization also have disadvantages (E.g. Businessman can’t buy, grow or sell drugs, and can’t refuse to pay taxes). So if you don’t know what to select or you want to play classical NogVille, select «No Specialization» and here you go.
→ LEVELS SYSTEM
Starting with version 5.5d, a special «career ladder» was introduced into the mission for some specializations. So, constantly using the unique opportunities of your chosen specialization you will be able to rise in level and get much more free bonuses. For example, if you chose the specialization «Killer«, then by constantly killing players, you will gain access to more random weapons when respawned. The maximum level in any specialization is the third one. To find out if you have a similar bonus, find the «+ Levels System» in the description of the specialization you have chosen.
*P.S. The police also have this «career ladder» — arrest more criminals and you will be able to get more free weapons, which will help you to maintain the order in the country!
