V1 Tarp:firing addition

Post by Joe4444 » 22 Aug 2016, 09:03

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):Make it so snipers can fire out the V1 tarp

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):Make it less shit than it is

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):Make the sniper be able to fire the sniper out the tarp and only the sniper. No one else would be able to do it besides from specs.Right now the tarp ain't useful for a lot of things other than watching

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):Coding

P.S:you can't even scope in inside it.

I mean that probably would make sense to have but it probably won't make sniper anymore useful still so eh. +1 just cause it'd be nice to fire out of.

+1

I think this was originally planned but the way bags work, they weren't able to fire out of the tarp.

You can use the tarp with the scope on by going to the OBJECTS menu in the top right, and clicking "Close/Open Bodybag". This will close you within the body bag while your scope remains on. You can also hotkey the two.

Going to -1 this because, even though I am absolutely in love with the sniper, It's nearly impossible for the aliens to see and if you start blasting aliens without them even being able to react they are going to generate large amounts of the chemical "Na".


However, I would be inclined to +1 this if it slowed the time between shots.

You can already throw throwing knives out of the tarp. Confuses the fuck out of aliens and preds.

That could be a thing.Most of the spec weapons are shit right now so this may be the buff the sniper needs to make it viable late game.Besides i'm the sure devs could figure someway to balance it out.

+1
You would be able to flank out, and have a good firing range, without FF'ing all the marines
On May 17, 2016, a group of farmers dug up the diary of an ear of corn named Watson. Here are his entries.

Day 76:
They took Lawrence, dear god Lawrence... They ripped him off the stalk and smeared him in butter, just like Tyler and Jodie. They shipped him off to the popcorn factory...
I wonder what his wife will say.

Day 120: My brother says the VEGANS are protesting for more anti-meat bullshit. They want more of us to die. FUCKING HEATHENS.

Day 153: The ants are eating me from the inside out. They are popping out my kernels and taking them back to the nest. I feel them moving inside me. Julia says the pesticides will end our misery.

Day 300: Sweet Release. I can hear the planes flying over now. They are dropping the gas, it feels so good, sweet release-

+1, it's essentially a camouflaged body bag.
