And gas that makes people vomit everywhere? haha I love it, it reminds me of Minority Report.
Weavel Wrote:Tear Gas grenades that work like simple smokes; not wearing a gas mask? Vision gets blurred, start vomiting, stuns as per medical-chem addictions, does no damage
Should really be no more than about six grenades available though
Agree on pretty much everything. Tear gas should not stun on gas impact, but should stun afterwards via addiction, which sounds really good if you are chasing someone. And it'd work in conjunction with the gas masks in the Armory, so that'd be a neat coincidence. Also include it in the tactical grenade kit.
Also, I am now leaning away from the HoS getting an energy rifle in his locker if it means he can get lethal bruising (non bleeding) bullets in his locker, and bullets actually do damage against rogue bots. This way, it wouldn't be so easy for a stun --> switch modes --> kill, the HoS would have to empty out his spacker before going with the intent to kill.
Yeah, if I have to give up my shiny laser guns, I would rather have an optional box of RUBBER bullets, that cause people some brute damage and makes them drop what they are holding. I really like replacing the eguns in the Armory lockers with spackers that have two boxes inside the locker as well. One box could be the tear gas, mainly because security is not as shit nowadays, and since it's HoS accessible only, some random shitty guard won't be spamming smoke everywhere. Also, this could be a nice weapon for emag holding traitors or wiz kids as well.
Another box could be filled with beanbags and a bean bag pouch, which you could wear on the belt slot. Pop in 6 and they are reusable too. They cause a minor stun and some brute damage. A full pouch can put someone in crit, maybe?
Maybe the tear gas can be a grenade that just explodes on contact, so that is a traitor gets his hands on a spacker, he can make really deadly gas rounds. I'm not sure I understand what people are saying about stun spackers, but I assume most of you mean a base setting that shoots taser bolts? And you could just change the setting to "Load" or "Stun" or even the setting that shoots them all at once? But yeah, that is just me taking all the ideas and mashing them. I also like the idea of making riot armor a lot better, because , we HAVE IT and it's shit. Might as well make it better as in incentive to actually use them. I have only seen scientists ask for them while making bombs, but that is all.
