You're also now unable to dye both the gloves and turtlenecks. What's the point of the box of crayons still being there with the washing machines?

Because goof made the fucking chameleon kit create

1) Invisible masks (I think this got fixed a month or two after it was removed)

2)Things like cigarettes as "masks"

This was almost entirely uncounterable without extreme metagaming since there were 0 tells to a nuke op other than not being on the manifest (and why would you constantly be checking the 50-70 people on the manifest vs every crew member if you didn't know it was nuke?). One psuedo changeling disguised guy killing the captain and then DELTA ALERT REACHED is only fun for 1 person out of 70 on the server, everyone else just did their jobs for 30 minutes before ROCKS FALL EVERYONE DIED and the rest of the ops likely didn't get to do anything.

>I can't teleport

You can drop pod now. People were just sending syndie bombs through the teleporter every round, which is again, pretty much uncounterable.

Stealthops is literally so easy every round I've run it it's 100% victory rate. Although I will miss my easy wins easy skins it is a good removal.

I've done it all of two times years ago out of dozens of nuke op rounds, and realized it was shit after the first time so we just murderboned after we got the disk the second time. I'm shocked anyone actually remembers me at all.

I'm more asking what's the point of the crayons and washing machines being there if you're unable to use them.

Removing chameleon boxes also removes gimmicks like "we're all CC inspectors here to, uh, inspect the disk", "observe these powerful wizards as they distract the crew with smokebombs", "we're ninjas honest" (etc).

To be honest I want to send some actual inspectors to inspect the nuke disk one of these days and tell them to act really fucking suspicious about it

Do it.

The post on the "Awesome stories" thread or the "Stories of regret" thread, depending on how it goes.

I did that a few weeks back. They had orders to yell "THEY KNOW" and blow themselves up if confronted, and the crew went nuts
