Hunter Sneak

[NoahKirchner]

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Change the hunter's sneak sprite from the ACTUAL hunter sprite, and revert it to the previous one.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It will make sneaking more viable on weeds for hunters again.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Keep the hunter sprite when not sneaking the same, but whenever they sneak remove the yellow bit on their chest and head because it makes them very easy to spot against weeds (the thing that they should best blend into)

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):A sprite change.

That is a good idea +1, but don't use the old one, it is ugly, just remove the yellow part

As of right now, the best hunter sneak is on weeds and from the behind, since most marine players focus on what they are firing at and not a sneaky hunter behind them, if they are otherwise not engaging anything, preety easy to see with a little focus.

I've noticed myself spotting even completely still hunters on weeds with a bit of light because of that yellow patch.

Why would this be a good idea at all? The only caste that needed a rework was the sentinel, but apparently, a Hunter needs a yellow patch that fucks up the very reason xenomorphs were created; to be the perfect lifeforms. A yellow patch doesn't serve any purpose to the hive, and when you're supposed to be a Hunter, you're essentially screwing up your very job. Why would Hunters need to be identified more while on weeds? So the Marines can just meta and get a quick kill? Absolutely not. It's hard as it is be stealthy in this game, and given how xenos are just killed like nothing, reverting Warriors back to their original sprite would at least be a better solution.

+1 anyway.

Well, it was made yellow because it was super hard to tell a drone from a hunter. +1 though

This is denied for now.

But I can't go into why, just say that "You'll see why soon(tm)".
