Xeno Head-Bite.

Post by KEY » 01 May 2017, 03:35

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Give Xeno's the flavor text of " X pierces Y's skull with their inner mouth, taking out a chunk of their head! " X being the Xeno, Y being the Marine. When they slash off a head instead of " Y's head flies off in a arc! "

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
- It's cooler and remembers headbites.
- It's just a nice little thing, not really gameplay changing.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
- If a Xeno decapitates a marine and they are not the Ravager class, make the flavortext imply they performed a head-bite.
- Rav's should keep the head flies off in a arc text, because they actually slash their claws and wouldn't bend over to perform a head-bite imo.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Change the text to something about a head-bite.
" I don't care how vile these demons are, they pale in comparison to the wrath a true human can bring forth! "

I've seen another suggestion with the same title, this one appears to literally just be a slight change of wording which I haven't seen befo-.

1+ if this was able to be performed through the players choice, RNG is rather too harsh. Having the ability to pull off an instant kill is fine, but it should not be easy to pull off.
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.

I'm actually pretty sure some of the flavor text when you slash people is described as a bite.

Denied.

This would break balance and is unnecessary at the moment.
