Remove Regen Coma

Post by wesoda25 » #532395

Unpopular opinion time, I think regen coma should be removed. Its far too powerful of a virus symptom, someone can literally click a button (sleep) to regen all of their health in about 20 seconds. Its ridiculous and outpaces some methods of damaging people (say punches). We should have more condition based weak passive regen symptoms like nocturnal regen. I would suggest weakening the healing, but that would result in the infected being knocked out for a long period of time which is just bad gameplay imo. Thoughts?

you can say this about literally any healing symptom

for the tissue hydration system all you have to do is carry a beaker of water, which you can refill from the infinite sinks, the 1000u water tanks. Or stand under a shower

Plasma Fixation, you literally just heal from plasma instead of dying from it. Gulp Gulp plasma internals super healing.

Edit: Almost forgot that you can use pocket extinguishers/regular extinguishers for heals because the game detects that as well.

Wow saving miners from ash drakes talk about OP

edit 2: we also got healing in the dark with no light, and healing in space/next to windows.

regen coma reduces max hp by 20 and is extremly weak to fire just set the bodies on fire or cut their head off and avoid being in numeric disavanage

You're probably right but I like it it's fun and that's probably because it's OP

Regen coma is neat because it has both upsides and downsides imo. It has to be strong to be worth the early planking.

... okay mentioning space gave me an idea 'cause of how elite dangerous does it. If you reboot/repair your ship it shuts you down for 30 seconds, then brings your shield back at 50% if you didn't take damage during the reboot
so you can't just use it in pvp unless you can straight-up disengage for 30 seconds and your opponents can just cancel it, but it's good for recovering after a fight

make it like that, taking damage during the coma makes it less effective (or ineffective entirely) so you gotta get somewhere relatively safe while you heal

I enjoy Regen coma because someone commiting mass murder will see you die, move on and you can get back up. But someone focused on killing you personally can still get he job done.

The last time I had regen coma I was fighting bubblegum as a miner. I would have lived but the since I was in the red it put me to sleep, basically killing me.

That viro was so insistent that it would help. I hope he catches dysentery.

it probably had starlight regen and/or self-breathing as well, I don't think regen coma can outheal pressure+suffocation
