Change the doors on the shuttles.

Post by Not_walker » 21 Dec 2014, 18:07

I've noticed recently (AND BITTERLY) that the xenos use the shuttles as a means of camping, and for the most part won't even try to board sulaco.
I've proposed two separate ideas on one picture.
Image
Idea 1: We simply expand the current airlocks to 2x1 instead of 1x1. This would remove the ability for xenos to bottleneck/disarm spam any marine attempting to shoot them, and other stuff
Idea 2: this would be a bit more tricky, but would completely remove airlocks all together. Obviously this would be more suited for a land map.

Yeah? Yeaaaahhhh

Fine , FINE.
Ill re-start working on my land-map , you buggers.

(Btw , nice idea but were would you place the Shuttle doors button ? The system you made would depressurize the Sulaco in matter of seconds , and many ,many , many marines would do that.)

I like idea 2. Now there's no way it can breach or any risks.

To deal with the "breach" issue. Just do what you guys do on the new eden server and uh, get rid of the space tiles in the hanger. Yeah?
Image :O

Also, the door buttons would have two. One would be inner shuttle door, and the other would be a docking door. I guess? I just sorta put this all together.

I've been thinking of changing the floor for awhile.

This will hopefully be resolved when we move to the new map.

Here's an idea... Decontamination gas! When an airlock opens, the gas spews (Humans would be wearing suits, or be immune. Aliens would choke and die/sleep)

I dislike the new idea. I don't want to see Marines trying to be CDC picking up after alien's limbs, however personally, I would see that this would be a good way to knock the staying in the shuttle people, or as you humans would call it, camping.

Its hard to see that someone one of the marines could be actually a russian traitor no?

Personally, I find the 'camping' to be a smart alien tactic that is needed when boarding the Sulaco, especially if the marines are scared and retreat over half their numbers to the sulaco instantly and barricade everything to high hell.

I like that ideia and i prefer the second one.
It looks more like a Chinook and can stop the minor problem of marines pushing eachother when they want to get out. Not mention that it gives an bigger "dropship" feeling.

Resolved.

We've incorporated these changes into the designs for the New Sulaco, after the conversion.
