Peacekeeperborgs are using buckling to stun people

Post by CPTANT » #340308

If you buckle to a borg with the anti harm field up than you get stunned.

But now borgs are using it as their primary stun method.

It seems rather unintended.

>The issue is that its doing it in a roundabout unintended way
:thinking:

It's not even the best at doing that since the standard borg is the only module with restraints

You can also drag a beepsky with you and set it to danger after field dampener buckle-stunning someone, It will restrain them for you.

I would like to point out this doesn't work if the person your buckling's hands are full
It's basically a shitty baton that wouldn't work against something like an OP 8 times out of 10.



If it was me, I'd give PK borgs a telebaton that auto-collapses when not in use (so you'd get a warning that the borg has its baton ready, and to ensure it can only handle one person at a time - telebatons can barely keep one person down ad in a crowd you're shit out of luck) and zipties so they can do actual peacekeeping and move standard borgs/engineer borgs from the assimilation department for traitor AIs with robo factories. It'd be the cutest little genocide ever.

Smoke a cigarette and your stun timer will be just short enough to for you to recover before the telebaton does.

I know oranges will just laugh it off again but I'm going to go ahead and say it anyway:

Having a trap option in-game that exists solely to make players miserable for trying to do what is explicitly their job is dumb and bad.
