that round sucked, i had purplefags putting me into crit for cleaning up graffiti and blood. To be fair, we had the purple cult going for around 20 minutes then, completely civilly encouraging folks to join the purple cult, then you came in with your cleaner grenades simply to sabotage our fun. I d...

> The flash is utterly useless. Holy shit what is wrong with you? Flashes are 'I WIN' buttons for security in any engagement with anyone who does not have glasses. Spam it every 2~ seconds so the flash doesn't wear out but you don't burn it too quickly? 10~ seconds of blind to EVERYONE in a large ar...

I think I've seen WJ run this event twice now, maaaybe a third time but I can't be certain. That would make this a confirmed third time he's done the larva with a bow. So? Wiggles is cute, and I don't recall Wiggles ever actually having the capacity to evolve in any round I was on with my knowledge...

Is this the same round where the 'Friendly Wiz' was Actually a Friendly Wiz, and deadchat was in an uproar because said wizard was being friendly? If it is, then there's not really an issue for him rezzing the wiz when it was actually being friendly. Sorta. The point is that: 1. Jayden had no way o...

Is resurrecting an antagonist a bannable thing? I believe the thought is that you CAN resurrect an antagonist, but if you don't do it without reasonable proper preparation (cuffs, straightjacket, etc.) and you are aware that they are an antagonist, you take responsibility for any actions they might...

Amelius

This is not call of duty where everything is perfectly, symmetrically balanced. Harden the fuck up, and accept that people have the means to fuck you up. I for one am fucking tired of the constant nerfing of dangerous things. It reminds me of the despicable culture of safety legislation that pervad...

A cable-moulding machine would be great. If nothing else being able to get a run of all the same colour on demand rather than relying on RNG would help muh autisms. Want to know a sekrit technique? Take one length of your desired colour wire. Combine 29 lengths of any other coloured wire into it. P...

-snipple- Actually, transforming to a shadowling changes your species to the shadowling one. so provided the species swap is done in the right place (read: before item strip), you could survive it. I'd be surprised if it were the case, since you look like your original race for the duration of the ...

Amelius

Hilariously broken in so many ways. Heck, my nuke op commander spawned in as a plasmaman and instantly conflagarated, died, then exploded while we all laughed our sides off. I'd hazard a guess that evolving into a shadowling is impossible too, since the evolution process strips all your equipment in...

Amelius

No. Then there's no real way to apply water/lube to turfs.

You'd be better off reducing the amount each spray can hold to 50% of normal capacity. So long as the slip duration changes were reverted, I'd be totally good with that.

The big problem with this is it means you can red alert a shuttle in with a 5 minute duration, then upgrade it making it a 2.5 minute shuttle call with a roughly single minute window to recall. Given that by the time the shuttle is called first (40+ minutes in), R&D is basically maxed and usual...

Turrets have a tendency of killing allies. If you're bringing people in to be converted, cuffed, they'll shoot at them, typically hitting the cultist. Needs to check for cuffed status before firing. It really needs a wiki page. Claymores are too powerful as a cult weapon. Reliance on metal/glass mak...

Also if you can kill someone quickly and effectively, then it's a lot easier to escape before people turn up to save their asses, particularly if there's no AI about: Thus emphasising the value of killing people in the quieter corners of the station.

Lifeweeb's method of amnesia is just flat-out deleting everything in your chatbox and notes before the incident (i.e getting knocked out). It works surprisingly well considering most people probably back-track through the chat logs for info. That's actually a really good idea. Easy-to-implement, ap...

I think when we look at big changes recently, Gang stands out as a feature that was designed from the top down to have quality gameplay elements and to be a "Better TDM". Goof didn't code gang. It was purely designed and coded by absolutely based Ikkarus, who improved the mode from 'unpla...

Amelius

The whole 'the poll didn't show what the nerf actually is!!' is a retarded statement considering literally anyone could click on the PR link and look at the whopping 1-line change to see what happened. If people were voting 'yes' or 'no' without actually looking at the proposed changes then its not...

>work >1 beaker of mutagen can get it Don't forget Lube or soap. If you find it unfair or not right please look at the PR for all my reasons why water was unbalanced for what it was. The fact is, the majority voted not for 'a nerf at the current proposed values', but whether or not to nerf slips at...

Amelius

Sounds cool. It offers something the other maps don't, so +1. Maint/AI core/etc. design pending, but it'd offer unique opportunities specific to that map. You'd need to make sec low-rules though. You gotta be able to handle greytiders that try to hop the border with lethality or how will they learn?...

Amelius

+1 agree. What was wrong with the old sound? This is Nar'sie all over again (who, I might add, still has that ridiculous ripping sound prefacing the actual good one because some people don't know how to let fucking go). Same with flashbangs really. We're removing all the old good sounds that have be...

Amelius

You can still get hulk powers from Genetics consoles. Only injectors are temporary. I like it, myself - it means you have to actually go to Genetics to get powers, rather than having them handed out like free candy on Hallowe'en. It still means you have to trust someone else to not turn you into a ...

Amelius

It's bad. Sentiment was negative, and will continue to be. The feature will never be used, because playing RNG roulette is always better than timed powers. Reliability > unreliability, for obvious reasons. If you want to be able to disable it, you're better off having a second one with a clean SE. A...

Lethality. I miss everything being dangerous and a potential weapon, anyone being able to take anyone out regardless of position and equipment. I miss the days when equipment would only give you an advantage since everything had potential to be lethal, rather than it being an 'I win button' (see: di...

It's pretty shit if we've gotten to the point where we can't trust our own maintainers to keep their word. I don't trust the maintainers as far as I can throw them, and neither should anyone else. They've shown time and time again that they'll merge whatever they feel like merging, regardless of po...

Amelius

Bad for multiple reasons. Reposting from git: > Silver Sulf., Styptic Powder, and Synthflesh Now works on corpses again. Why would you do this? Death is yet again meaningless. You can kill people and no matter what you do to them sans gibbing they'll be walking around with zero delay the moment the ...

I made him water down the nerf (heh) and I yolomerged it This isn't your regular old yolomerging though; dunc brand yolomerging comes with a money back guarantee if you don't like it by the end of the week Don't like it, also not in the spirit of the poll. It's still slashing the stun in half (from...

The logical end to this is that people like Dante and Emily would get antag every round instead of only around half the time. More murderboning isn't something I want to see. I think you're exaggerating a bit too much. Firstly you have to robust that person and second, you have to ensure they don't...

Amelius

And maybe once it's done people will stop whining about the map rotation system as a way to complain about the maps they don't like and instead go and post their feedback to the mappers themselves. Any amount of feedback won't make a shit map into a good map. Meta has potential, esp. since Metacide...

Idea: force us to play less Box even if people want to play it. Force us to play meme maps.

Amelius

Why does it need to change in the first place, from a gameplay perspective?

Ballistics probably don't need a buff anyway, except *maybe* the stetchkin in terms of pricing.

Amelius

Honestly map rotation would be fine if we limited it to meta/box and maybe the occasional meme map, but the other maps are so immensely broken, empty, unbalanced, or just plain bad design (asteroid, birdboat) to play, especially for maint-centric antagonists [cult, shadowling, changeling, blob] whic...

Amelius

This is probably going to be immensely skewed because the main problem people have with map rotation is having shit/broken maps in the rotation with no QC or requirements to get into it in the first place, aside from 'has pressure'. Basically any map other than box/meta is unplayable dreck or a meme...

Amelius

Inertia. I don't like where the game is going, I don't like where the game has gone from two+ years ago, I've already mastered every facet of the game, and I can reliably kill the entire station regardless of my starting situation, with or without tools such as my favoured water. That said, there's ...

Amelius

Edit: The past few hours have been nothing but asteroid->birdboat->meta, does this thing even account for player preferences? There's no way Birdboat is the top choice for more than a tiny minority of autists, yet I've played it just as much as Box in the last 24 hours. More like the past while. It...

because 7 cultists decided to go peaceful. > Peaceful antags. Except anyone can claim they're a peaceful antagonist. There's nothing that stops that cult from growing slowly (which they were), then killing anyone that remains in their way; or from being a hostile cult under the veil of a 'peaceful'...

They also have implant breakers, which can de-loyalty and convert someone (even Security) - I wouldn't mind having one loyalty implant deconvert-and-loyalty a gangster, as a counter to this. They were changed so they no longer convert. Gang conversions are slow enough as-is, and the focus is on gan...

The problem with map rotation is that most of the maps are shit and there's no quality control to get into the map rotation, or maintain your position in the rotation aside from 'hey, I have a map'. The only two maps that really deserve their spots in the rotation are Meta (best at ultrahighpop [70+...

YES! ANOTHER STUN FOR THE NERF GOD! SOON THE ULTIMATE DREAM OF ONLY SECURITY HAVING GOOD STUNS WILL BE HERE! Summates half of my opinion on the matter. Since feedback here is meaningless, I'm posting only on git. Basically, easily counterable by a button, the spray is as loud as an esword and has a...

Tbh, making lube visible is a buff. The main thing with lube was that it was double-edged. You can use it defensively, yes, but you have no way of telling when it is gone so the user never knows if they can use an exit safely.

I'd recommend strongly against it.

Amelius

Old. Also if these new new changes go through, shadowlings definitely need some light tolerance or even maintenance will be a deathtrap.

Amelius

Horrible. Just busywork, not caused by people ingame, and the way the wiring works means that the mice WILL cut core cables, and the % chance per mouse cycle is ridiculously high.

There's nothing good about it.

Amelius

Rev is one of the few modes that IS stacked against sec and the heads. It actually provides challenge from that side, and hence is fun. Victory is more precious for the heads, and so forth. Not every mode needs a flat 50% winrate. Hell, I'd contend that a low winrate on the part of an antag means lo...

Amelius

Recently, extended was re-added to the rotation with a flat 2.1% chance.

Do you like it? Hate it? Or are you apathetic? Vote and comment here.

C-could I join in on this? Renaming an existing noname, or new colonist is A-OK. Emily Ranger :3.

Amelius

This would take some mapping work, but how about abandoned Office being a different abandoned room each round? Just spriting some 8x5 rooms, so it could be Abandoned Robotics, Abandoned Medbay, etc. And would give a chance to introduce some new changes to Box that people wouldn't be opposed to. Mig...
