I can only hope someone makes a new Sea Patrol thread when this one is goldmined, Obsurveyor is still working on his game!

I've got two things on my to do list this year: Get rid of 95% my physical poo poo and make an awesome SEA PATROL game.

Heading back home tomorrow morning and I'm still super excited to be working on SEA PATROL, I just get all kinds of ideas whenever I sit and think about it. Expect more Shore Duty updates next week after I get settled into my normal routine again. Gonna miss having all these hours to just work on game dev.

This thread makes me wish for a Sea Patrol themed version of Xcom.

Over time you upgrade your sea patrol troops from pick ax handles to rail guns.

Instead of preventing terror missions like in Xcom you do ops such as breaking into random dive instructor schools to massacre all the participants.

i assume you missed

I don't think anyone in SEA PATROL even has any hair except for that one guy.

Yes, they appear nude on recreational divers' tanks and can even be recreational divers.

it's an old fashioned working class weapon, featured in countless strike breaking actions and very popular in demonstrations for over a century. in italy it's nicknamed "the stalin" and historically brandished by the communist party's security service at parades. some union workers still march in parades in anti-riot police formation, holding "stalins" horizontally in front of them with both hands

do you remember that turkish blockade runner bringing aid to the gaza strip, that was boarded by israeli marines a few years ago? most of the weapons they confiscated were pickaxe handles

it's a euro thing I guess

This is legitimately interesting, thanks.

This is all pretty fun but literally the first words on the page the OP linked to are:

quote:

This is a possible near future or "alternate time line". All diving has been put under a tight naval / industrial control. Enforcing this is one of the duties of the inshore branches of the Sea Patrol. If you don't want this sort of thing to become reality, watch out for authoritarianism and officialdom creeping up on your favourite hobby.

It's satire that's somehow turned into wankfodder.

The Marquis de Sade commonly prefaced his thousands and thousands of words of anal rape and making GBS threads on people's eyeballs with the caveat that he was just doing it as a cautionary tale lest people get too randy.

It makes sense if you put it together. One of the vignettes is a heroic member of the SEA PATROL returning to the diving club that kicked him out. This guy was a salt of the earth type who did a lot of work helping to turn an old pub into a diving club, so obviously he wasn't kicked for breaking reasonable rules. No, it must have been "authoritarianism and officialdom creeping up".

Local club president wants to act like an authoritarian jack booted thug? I"ll give you authoritarian jack booted thugs!

someone pointed out a while back that the guy clearly read Judge Dredd and basically remade that except in the ocean and even more ridiculously absurd

He called them argon-breathers once I think. I guess because yellow is the color of argon tanks or something? He makes a big deal on color-coding tanks to industrial gas coloring standards.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-frogman_techniques

quote:

There have been reports of some naval personnel objecting to civilian divers getting into waters being used for armed forces exercises, or considering any sport diving as intruding into naval and work divers' territory, and being tempted to take their own action against the "intruders".

I have a feeling that this comes from personal experience.

their territory meaning the entire ocean. i somehow doubt that is based on personal experience, because sea patrol is not real.
