Re: Squad medic gloves
Did you know that pulling out facehuggers from people faces can break the bones of your head? pulling something such as face huggers should not to that, it's against logic, and about the "shitpost" i'll just ignore it.LordeKilly wrote:-1, there is no need for this at all.

Re: Squad medic gloves
It usually takes two huggers in a row to break the skull. Besides, these things are strangling you and clawing at your face. I'd say two of them in a row would probably hurt.

Have you seen Alien? The hugger grabbed on so tight that the surgeon couldn't remove it until it decided to let go.username123 wrote:face huggers should not so that
The fact that we can pull them off in a few seconds is a godsend already.

Re: Squad medic gloves
If we are going to use these kind of arguments and stick with the lore, then the m41 should have a grenade launcher in it, it should be able to carry 50 rounds, all marines should be able to have grenades, the sentry guns should be able to take take 5 to 8 xenos in no time with a firing rate of 30 rounds per second and a capacity of 500 rounds, aliens should die with or be very injured with 2-5 gunshots from an m41, aliens should kill humans instantly with 1-2 hits, regular aliens should not be able to eat/regurg humans, etc ...TheSlapDoctor wrote: Have you seen Alien?

Let's talk about balance instead, a broken skull takes a player off the round for at least 15 minutes because of the pain health at the moment the fracture, the transporting to the sulaco, the waiting in medbay, the surgery, and the tranport back to the planetside, etc, this will avoid all this delay (only for pulling facehugger out of people faces)

Re: Squad medic gloves
Which is why it's important for medics to heal the brute damage to a Marine's face after removing the hugger. Automating this duty for the medic removes an important part of triage, making the Medic even closer to just a Marine with less available inventory space.username123 wrote:Let's talk about balance instead, a broken skull takes a player off the round for at least 15 minutes because of the pain health at the moment the fracture, the transporting to the sulaco, the waiting in medbay, the surgery, and the tranport back to the planetside, etc, this will avoid all this delay (only for pulling facehugger out of people faces)
All that a medic has to do is take the Trauma Kit (which most medics keep in either pockets or suit storage) and slap it onto the Marine's face before moving on.

Re: Squad medic gloves
CM's lore is loosely based on the actual lore, so basically Apop and other staff members + the community can chop and edit certain areas of the lore to make the game more balanced and/or entertaining to play and enjoy. That is why we do not have xenos dying after a few shots and aliens beinga ble to kill humans with ease etc.username123 wrote: If we are going to use these kind of arguments and stick with the lore, then the m41 should have a grenade launcher in it, it should be able to carry 50 rounds, all marines should be able to have grenades, the sentry guns should be able to take take 5 to 8 xenos in no time with a firing rate of 30 rounds per second and a capacity of 500 rounds, aliens should die with or be very injured with 2-5 gunshots from an m41, aliens should kill humans instantly with 1-2 hits, regular aliens should not be able to eat/regurg humans, etc ...

Denied.
We aren't going to make gloves to subvert a mechanic we made to prevent instant return to combat of people who get hugged.
