New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - Berrik - 11-12-2018 Since people are quite excited about the new loadouts, here's a thread so all the discord stuff doesn't get lost. Gannets has said he's open to making new loadouts/changing existing ones/other admins making new loadouts, so go nuts! My comment on the LMG kit: having it only fit on the back is kind of cumbersome for how inaccurate it is, I wish it would at least fit in a backpack. Stuff various people mentioned on discord: -nerf fartcloaking -Give the infiltrator kit combat knife a special message when you attack someone with it/get attacked by someone with it from cloak -New kit: syndicate assault cyborg, basically a borg version of those security robots you can see, possibly with different (randomized?) left and right weapon arms; in addition they'd only be unlockable with an agent ID so they can't just be flashed and debrained RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - Lady Birb - 11-13-2018 A kit I came up with: Breacher: less combat potential, but great support abilities. Set comes with:

The idea is The Wrecker is the loud assault version while The Hacker is the quieter stealth type of the same team role: Being the guy that gets you in and out of places The Mad Doctor:
RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - Gannets - 11-14-2018 Thank you for posting, friends. My week off work has drawn to a close, but i'll take a peek at these and hopefully make some tweaks/additions soon. RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - Flaborized - 11-14-2018 Medic has a syringe gun, but the only medical stuff you can load into it on the shuttle is epi and charcoal, as styptic and silver both don't heal a whole lot when injected and supposedly even does tox damage. Currently the best thing to load it with from what I can tell is the cyanide you start with. Would be pretty cool if they also got bottles of stronger medical chems, such as perf or omni. And if the syndies don't get defibs already, medic class should for sure get a defib. Maybe even give them a box of synthflesh patches? You're trading away a lot of killpower for medic so they should have fairly robust medical gear.

Slow but powerful melee weapon that can also be used to demolish walls and machines. RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - MajorWX - 11-14-2018 Cloak is really powerful. Just played a nuke ops round as infiltrator and never took a point of damage that wasn't friendly fire despite fighting in crowded areas and shooting people in the back. I feel that Infiltrator will be balanced naturally overtime as people learn to wear thermals constantly if it becomes too much of a threat. Overall, I suggest balancing these role crates by removing the sarin grenades and/or the RPG to limit AoE attacks to a specialist, though many would see this as a buff to nukies now that they don't lose a member to friendly fire every round.

The current issue with cloaks being OP mostly stems from thermals sucking too much. They used to allow you to see 2 or 3 tiles further in the dark, back when darkness meant it was completely black. But now all they do is let you see cloakers, which isn't really a reason for anyone to have them if there is no cloaker. Thermals needs an update more than changing the loadout. RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - drymelon - 11-15-2018 not sure what the intention of the lmg is since it feels all round nerfed it doesn't have enough distance to even match a taser, so not really useful for like suppressing a hallway also due to spread this makes it really easy to friendly fire in close quarters, makes it feel like you're not supposed to use it next to teammates the low damage output is understandable if it were more useful as a suppressing/area denial type but at this rate it's like i'm using a flamethrower having to chase mooks down this speed disadvantage opens you up to easy taser shots too maybe give it better range p sure damage fall off exists as a thing?? (derringers) point blank lmg should probably be enough to crit somebody maybe burst option that's 4 bullets instead of 8, trade off damage output for accuracy/range if infiltrator gets cloak and counter strike knife then lmg guy should at least get a stim if the gun itself isn't gonna get changed RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - medsal15 - 11-15-2018 Allow us to make clothes out of human skin. I just want a human leather cowboy hat RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - CandleCandleCandles - 11-15-2018 Wrong thread? Whether or not it's so, you already can, somewhat, if somebody suicides into the nanofabricator, you can make a jumpsuit and gloves out of them. RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - Berrik - 11-15-2018 Thermals got nerfed because they used to be the current X-ray vison plus you could see cloakers. RE: New nuke loadouts suggestions/comments - Gannets - 11-15-2018 Someone informed be that medics were spawning with the wrong donk pockets, this has been fixed. |
