Docking port for Nustromo.

Post by Skycave1 » 01 Apr 2017, 20:55

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): It would be much nicer if there was a space docking port when the rasputin would land on the Nustromo. Like the last two shuttles we had back in pre alpha. It would make more sense and look much nicer if they didn't just land on a flat out of place hangar bay. Maybe make one for the Vindicator aswell. Like a tether, where it hooks on to the side of the Nustromo through an airlock, and make that the way in.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It would bring better immersion to the marines, and add a nostalgia factor to the old players. It would also look much nicer then it being some hooked on landing pad.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): I say we rework the landing areas, and make it a glass walkway around the Rasp, or hook it to the side of the building. It would make evac and landings much quicker, yet also make more sense for the kind of station it is.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Rework the LZ and get rid of the flad landing spaces, for a more space port kinda docking style with tethers and docking clamps.

You realize the new map is only here for today right?
You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

It may be a test to see if players like it.

It's not.

Nustromo isn't coming back anytime soon as a map in rotation, if at all. Not worth working on it. Denied.
