Slashing Infected Marines

Post by Emma McCain » 27 Feb 2017, 06:19

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):Lately Xeno's slashing infected hosts became an pain for the CM Staff to deal with it and of course making unreal since we saw on Aliens Series that when Ripley got infected the Xeno didin't even DARED to touch her since she was carrying another Xeno inside her Chest. So yeah same way the Queen can't Gut infected humans regular Xeno's should get the same message when trying to slash infected ones.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):Making Staff Team life's better and making sure that the Aliens basic standart is followed.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):Well when an Marine get's infected regular Xenos couldn't harm him or her, maybe allowing the queen to slash infected ONLY.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
The pen is mightier than the sword. I keep the sword for the day I run out of ink.

+1 surely there's ways to balance this.

I'm neutral on this due to the fact that if a marine is infected he/she could technically go on a rampage should they get out. So there needs to be someway to balance this so its not TOO broken to have.

This doesn't fit in with the gameplay or the lore. The only time xenomorphs will refuse to harm an infected is if they are carrying the new queen. From a gameplay standpoint, it would mean immunity from being attacked, which is already a problem for infected who suicide rush. Denied.
