RE: Ideas of questionable quality - Mouse - 06-18-2020
A very dumb idea I had and posted here awhile back but I happened to think of it again and expanded on it so here it is in all its dumb glory.
The Syndicate sent the best of the best. They failed. Now they're sending the worst of the worst.
Fluke Ops: The Game Mode
You don't get any of the normal syndicate toys. You don't even get the class crates so loved by nuclear operatives. Instead, you get one of a selection of class crates that are a bit different. Fortunately, the class outfits are all spaceproof and come with a voice changer so you can give yourself whatever dumb name you want. Here's a sampling.
THE NINJA - While you were playing video games, I was studying my Japanese animes. In addition to the obligatory ninja outfit, it comes with throwing knives, smoke bombs for stealth*, slip proof sandals that increase your movement speed, and a katana.
THE FOOTBALL PLAYER - Hut-hut-hike! Comes with a stronger version of the syndicate football outfit, plus some cans of energy drink. Gotta stay hydrated!
THE COWBOY - Yee-Haw! Comes with a lasso, which acts like handcuffs that can be applied at range, as well as a pair of revolvers and a 75-gallon hat. Perhaps the hat glows red, like a syndicate hat!
THE LUCHADOR - Luchadores are stupider than wrestlers, and therefore way cooler. Comes with a selection of masks, including the different colors of wrestling mask but also the horse mask and the chicken mask, a wrestling belt, and a pill that, when swallowed, replaces a bunch of your organs with cyber organs, so you can wrestle more often!
THE SCOTSMAN - Och aye, etc etc. You get the scots accent for free, hooray! You also get a lovely kilt, a set of bagpipes that, when played, gives a buff to your fellow flukeops a la the revolutionary sign, and of course a claymore. You do not get a machine gun for a leg, because that guy was a hero and you are not.
THE WASHED-OUT ACTION HERO - We're filming, right? These bullets aren't real. The good news is that you get a god damned minigun. The bad news is that the reason you haven't gotten any parts is because you didn't take care of your body, and are now fat. Fortunately the syndicate has access to very stretchy pants.

Rocket shoes made with clown shoes should still squeak. Especially when activated.
RE: Ideas of questionable quality - aft2001 - 06-21-2020
A deafening cry of squeaking as they activate, please.

If you name yourself Gregor Samsa and sleep in a bed, there should be a small chance that you turn into a cockroach person when you wake up.

Make the extra job-slots that ran during sseth tide an automatic thing. It frequently gets to the point where they're needed for any open late-join jobs but there's no admin to manually switch it on.
RE: Ideas of questionable quality - aft2001 - 07-14-2020
A playercount based thing for the extra job slots and gimmick jobs would be pretty good, yeah. Though it should 100% be dependent on the map, particularly regarding Genetics, where usually only 2 geneticists can work at a time.
RE: Ideas of questionable quality - Mouse - 07-15-2020
Yeah, some of the Ssethtide job count boosts were awful (genetics, qm, and mining in particular), and medical and sec ran into equipment problems. Extra slots for at least some of the gimmick jobs and more guaranteed gimmick jobs would be good though. IIRC a few of the increases even stayed (janitor was one slot before the Ssethtide, wasn't it?) so another trial to see what jobs we can support might be worth it.
Although as much as I'd like us to be trusted with guaranteed test subject slots, we probably aren't worthy of it.

Emagging an emagged borg should give it a random assortment of ion storm laws.
RE: Ideas of questionable quality - Wisecrack34 - 07-27-2020
Dirty shoe washer, should either involve flinging the space man or be similar to a car wash
RE: Ideas of questionable quality - DJ-Fireball_did_this - 07-27-2020
Stow-away should be a gimmic role/job instead of a trait.

Let security flag glove IDs so there will be a message on a forensic scan that this particular glove id is wanted for something or another.

Yes!
YES!

The walrus should aggro on anyone it sees attacking a space seal pup, and it should be considerably more robust.
Hell, have all animals aggro on anyone they see attacking a space seal pup. I bet George thinks they're his friends.
RE: Ideas of questionable quality - Mouse - 08-04-2020
On Ass Day wizards should have access to a spell that spawns a bunch of shotguns, because they have no sense of right or wrong.

YES!
Should be doable from the forensic thing, or a Sec PDA. The forensic scanner, could just poke it with a Sec ID, it asks you what entry from the list of things it scanned (oh yeah, let them hold a list of stuff they scanned), select, and it's flagged!
