Spoiler:
Remie Richards

+Go Getter: Remie hacks datacores 10% faster than normal and gains a 10% speed boost when in a room without xeno's.

-Mute: Remie does not count for determining number of marines in a room when the effect is beneficial to the marines.

Skorvold

+Wolfish: Skorvold gains 20% rate of fire and aim assist when in a room containing more xenos than marines.

-TRAILERS: Skorvold cannot close doors or activate fences when in LOS of a xeno.

People Are Strange

+Eager Cadet: PAS gets 20% movement speed increase when in a room with another marine. PAS hacks turrets 10% faster when in a room with another marine.

-Scaredy: All squad bonuses become penalties when in a room with more xenos than marines. PAS loses the friendly fire indicator when in LOS of a xeno. PAS deals double damage to marines
.
Ahaha those stats are perfect! In both a gameplay way and what happens like 90% of the time.

You need some stats too:

An0n3

+Team leader: Anon Can move any one person within a room once a turn. This should not be counted as the players movement turn. Anon3 Repairs 20% faster.

- Point Man: Anon takes %50 more damage from Xeno's (maybe thats too much?) and will always be attacked first by xeno's


Also for kek's

Stickymayhem

+ Sticky's Mayhem: Deals 50% extra damage to ALL units (marines and xeno's). Collects ammo 20% faster.

- A liability: Unable to activate breakers. Will shoot friendly marines if they block his movement.

Allow me to stat myself

Wyzack

+ Last Man Standing: Takes 20% less damage from Xenos when he is the last surviving marine

- Permenant 5th Wheel: 80% of the time will be the 5th marine attempting to join a 4 marine mission, and will be forced to run one man suicide runs

Seriously though, might be able to do a few runs late afternoon EST if anyone would wanna play

Funnily enough I had imagined myself pretty damn similarly to what you described:

An0n3

Fearless Leader: An0n3 can add or subtract two from the marine count of any room he is in at any time. Note that this cannot take the count below 1.

Loudmouth: All xenos move towards An0n3 when able. All xenos attack An0n3 when able.

People who wont yell at you for stuff

I didn't think anyone was yelling in seriousness? Its a game where you die a lot, and normally through rubbish placement of breaches. But you gotta just accept that you'll probably die and Remie will be the last one standing till she dies alone blocked by a wall of aliens just seconds away from the airlock.

But really, don't take it like CS, its no competitive at all. Its a team game where the most likely outcome is death. Just gotta scream a lot and pretend your in the Aliens movie.

Hey Im sorry you felt that way but at the same time if you're going to act like this when people play/dont play vidya with you it's sort if self-fulfilling, no?

You feel bad because you wanted to play with some specific people who were already playing by themselves, think about how the people you're pouting and refusing to play with instead feel.

Hey! not nice to call us stragglers.
But seriously, you're taking a very small situation and extrapolting. Dude! Its not you! Its how pretty much all gaming on the discord goes! like a rabbled mess. Last time I was on I played Cleanup sim with a few people after hours of StickyMayhem asking everyone to play, and then he himself couldn't play. Then we spent another 2 hours of starting games up (SWAT4, Space beast, Viseral) and then never actually playing them as people changed their minds or dropped out. The only time we actually played again was when someone suggested baraotrauma and then EVERYONE joined in.
Put it this way, everyone has different tastes and mostly are all flaky as fuck. Trying to start a game is much like being in an event round of SS13. You have to be in the right place at the right time with mostly luck on yourside or a loud enough voice to keep asking over and over whilst at the same time not putting people off. And most of the time, people just don't want to play because they fancy playing something else.
No one has actually anything against you, in fact your one of the few people who comes across as a nice dude and not a dick.

So stick around, just jump into the mix and see what happens.

Actually that be pretty damn cool. Just one per level. It also have to spawn the other side of the station to give you a chance. Also what would it do if it hit the laser fence? maybe be stunned? hmmm

Yeah the thing about the gaming Discord is that it's truly a gigantic clusterfuck of random pick up games. Nothing gets planned at all ahead of time. We go from arguing about whether thigh highs are better than vagina bones, Advance Wars series discussion, D&D theorycrafting, to all piling into a game of Barotrauma or Helldivers that fills up in seconds.

I do feel partly responsible, because I made the damn thing in hopes that people would just hang out and get into random games of shit together, and that's working. I don't think it's humanly possible to put any kind of order to that and it's inevitable that people will get left out when suddenly the idea strikes us to play something that only fits 4 people and there's like fucking ten times that many people idling in chat.

Not much point stressing about it in the end. We have enough people we can run multiple games of the same thing, it's just everyone might not get to play with their buddies all the time. Still, SBTF and Helldivers are like the two games we tend to play with 4 man limits. Barotrauma is however many people we can fit in a sub, Killing Floor has large servers, etc.

i've noticed my playstyle

+ Internal Compass - Keeps constant track of the location and routes to the airlock and reactor rooms.
? Determined - When being attacked, most soldiers will move away and shoot. This one will move forward, thinking only of conquest. This has a 35% chance of survival.
- Unfaithful - Will do his best to split off from the team.


also have some recommended settings

Code: Select all

fences: less
rooms: filled
random breaches: on
difficulty: random each
power start: off
power failures: 1/32 chance
everything else is free for you to change

Looks like there's a contest going for this
Prize- 5bux per teammate
Teams of 4

Seems like a good time to me, anyone up for that?
Spoiler:
RULES
Contest will only occur if we get at least 4 teams to participate.
Teams are 4 players.
Contestants can only be on ONE team.
Sign up by posting ONCE in this thread with the Steam names of all four members of your team along with a team name (make it a work-safe, kid-safe name, please).
Signup period starts NOW and ends midnight Eastern United States time Saturday, January 21, 2017.
Contest period is the week of Sunday, January 22, 2017 through Saturday, January 28, 2017, Eastern US time. The mission SEED will be posted when the contest period opens.
Contest goal is to complete a mission I specify in the shortest time out of the competing teams, verified by mission completion screens as Steam screenshots from all team members, posted to this thread. Get them posted before the deadline please. :)
The entire team does not have to survive, but all surviving team members must reach the airlock.
Prize: Each winning team member will receive $5 USD added to their Steam wallet. CHA-CHING!
Mission settings will be posted below.
Mission SEED value will be revealed the day the contest opens.
Contest period is 1 WEEK.
Teams can submit ONE mission completion time. Only post your BEST completion time to this thead.
At the end of the contest week I will visit the Steam profiles of the team with the fastest completion time to verify the existence of the screen shots and will then send the prizes.

How about a speed run to a specfic rank, as a whole team though. That would be less about the RNG (though it could help/be bad) and more about the teamwork.

The contest does NOT say you can not do that, so that is a legitimate strategy

You could farm download upgrades for everyone and then do the contest
