While normal EF Holomatch games are classic FPS battles with a Star Trek twist, RPG-X (now on v2.1) servers are very different. Instead of putting the act of shooting and killing others on a pedastool, the server actually kicks you if you rack up two kills. As the name of the mod suggests, this turns Elite Force into a FP-RPG.
While their are weapons, they are class specific and for RPing purposes, not killing.
Classes (Those I recall off the top of my head, that is):
Command
Medical
Science
Engineering
Security
Marine
Civilian
Notes:
1.) In v2.1, your choosen class actually affects your uniform color.
2.) In v2.1, the rank you choose before joining the server will show up via the actual correct pip on the character model in-game.
Current Up-Dates (ie, add-ons):
1.) Extended ST ranks (while the new ones don't show up in-game on the character model's pips, they include provisional officers, warrent officers, and enlisted ranks).
2.) BSG rank set (also doesn't show up in-game as pips).
3.) U.S.S. Atlantis map: Said to be an Atlantis class ship, in-game diagrams (ie, MSD images) show it to be something like an Excalibur class (the refit, not the original Pendragon class (you can tell the difference primarily by saucer shape)). Pretty much every console on this map are interactive and do something, ranging from making noise to ejecting the warp core. As this is a large map, its suggested you have a lot of people on it for a proper RP session.

While I enjoy a good frag fest as the next guy, its quite fun to play on an RPG-X server. You choose your position and RP as that. Think of it as an MMORPG simulator.
