I predict nightmares are next.
Shadowlings got replaced by an infinite jaunt from wizard and an armblade from changeling
Only thing it can do is murderbone.

I like swarmers. I love antags like blob which start small but get everybody's butts moving before they snowball.

Re: You are now an ss13 boomer if you remember swarmers
if they were made, reworked, AND were still just a shitty midround whats the point in "fixing" them? they clearly just aren't a good ideaKendrickorium wrote: ↑Thu Jan 13, 2022 1:28 am all that coding someone did to make these things (and then remake them last year) and they just straight up get rid of it because WAH I DONT LIKE THING

BWAHT ITS TOO GRWIEFFYYY
that's, like, just your opinion man
here's an idea, make them a super rare event instead of straight up deleting it because absolutely buttblasted
if fucking wizards popped up every other round like swarmers have been recently(HMM WIERD) i'd want it gone too

Re: You are now an ss13 boomer if you remember swarmers
Explain to me how the universal freakout that occurs every time a swarmer is spotted is "boring". I can understand somebody not finding them balanced, or disliking the destruction they caused because it disrupted their bar RP- but "boring"?SuperNovaa41 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 13, 2022 6:06 pmeven when they were rare i never enjoyed encountering or playing themKendrickorium wrote: ↑Thu Jan 13, 2022 5:38 pm >AND were still just a shitty midround

Heck, I'd argue that swarmers are among the most unique antags in the game. Few antag-types exist that, if not kept in check, gradually strips away the vital infrastructure of the station bit-by-bit until you're lucky if you can make it to the shuttle.

Re: You are now an ss13 boomer if you remember swarmers
all of what far said.
I think the real reason people want them gone (barring the fact that theyve been showing up every other fucking round for a week now) is that they are the antags everyone fucking ignores until there are 8 of them surrounding you making WOO noises
a lot of things go wrong for players in this game. removing a bunch of ghost roles "because its gweify" is such poor reasoning i'm surprised oranges okay'd it.

Re: You are now an ss13 boomer if you remember swarmers
imagine if they had red lasers and could lethal people
unsure if that would have gotten them removed faster or made players aware to instant kill them as soon as their spotted.
Ultimately, they are drones with disablers and cuffs. Highly annoying. Highly hard to hit, and unstunnable.

Re: You are now an ss13 boomer if you remember swarmers
I appreciate what the coders do, but we elect the headmins to represent our wants and interests
I could be wrong, but last I checked none of us elected the coders that make these kinds of changes
all in all its not a huge gigantic WHAT ARE THEY DOING THE SERVERRRR moment but I'll still miss swarmers, as they've been around for how many years now?
All the work that people put into them just callously tossed in the "we dont like this thing" pile along with clockcult, devil, hivemind, gangs, and god knows what else I'm forgetting.

They're not really even that fun to play, either. They're by far the worst of the simple-mob hazards.

Re: You are now an ss13 boomer if you remember swarmers
They were kind of miserable but hating them was a meme and the negative reaction was overblown. They didn't deserve to be removed, just improved. I'm not sure who added NPC swarmers or why but those were always the worst to have to deal with. Being mobbed by a bunch of lemons, stunlocked and then randomly teleported was not enjoyable.

Re: You are now an ss13 boomer if you remember swarmers
pretty much exclusively when you are one, but I have enjoyed swarmer fights. it's when they've decisively won, or you're the intern curator and getting teleported and don't know what handcuffs are that swarmers become really asscrack. So I guess I'm okay with it, but I did have fun being one.thomanthewise5404 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 10:24 pmwhenmassa wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 7:58 pmthey were funthomanthewise5404 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 14, 2022 1:28 am the fact that you niggas are actually complaining about this is crazy

Re: You are now an ss13 boomer if you remember swarmers
to make up for the unfair and unjust removal of swarmers i propose a new traitor item that starts a 5 minute countdown timer, at the end of which if the person who triggered it is not dead, all ore silos and orms on the station are hit by missiles
