Abductors staying as a playable race after October?

Post by Deepwoods » #521199

They fit in and don't seem to cause many issues, even with abductors present. Could implement a law of loyalty where they're bound to silence on abductor activities, and abductors aren't hard antags anyway.

Reasons why this is a bad idea
- They encourage players to be unresponsive and quiet
- We have too many races
- Possibility for in game metacomming of sorts
Reasons why this is a good idea

Yeah. Just encountered people gaming it for metacomming to shit up the server. That's unfortunate.

I had a fun round as one where people thought I was an ACTUAL abductor... And then abductors spawned. It confuses people too much to keep them around, but it's fun for the season.

It only confuses people because it's something different, though. So long as the greys aren't using their uniqueness to shit things up, they're pretty neat as an option.
