Marines in crit don't burst
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Marines in critical condition shouldn't incubate and burst a larvae
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): Discourage the 'strategy' of critting marines so they can't defend themselves rather than using the actual mechanics intended for xenos to incapacitate marines.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): If man in crit, chestburster doesn't burst
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): The same way it works for dead marines

Re: Marines in crit don't burst
Just ahelp it, if you've been put in crit and it wasn't from FF, this means aliens were slashing up a perfectly good host for no reason, unless you were being super dangerous like throwing grenades or pulling out a SADAR

Re: Marines in crit don't burst
Why force admins to police what's by-and-large an entirely mechanical problem?

Re: Marines in crit don't burst
It's a rule already that you shouldn't be doing that shit, so admins are already policing it.

Re: Marines in crit don't burst
-1. If you're in crit, you''ll die b/f you burst. Bursting takes around 25 min. It is POSSIBLE, but uncommon, to die from an INFECTED WOUND in that time.

Bursting I believe is only 5 minutes... Don't know where you go the idea of 25 minsJPR wrote:-1. If you're in crit, you''ll die b/f you burst. Bursting takes around 25 min. It is POSSIBLE, but uncommon, to die from an INFECTED WOUND in that time.
Honestly I would say -1 to this suggestion since really this will just lead marines put themselves into crit to stave off death from bursting

Re: Marines in crit don't burst
Croy I've never been in a game where I bursted before the 25 min mark, not sure if it's bugged or not, but every single time I get at least 25 minutes out of being nested and camped by aliens that are just as pissed off by larva burst times as I am.

It can reach 25 minutes if there are no ghosts wanting to become a alien.Carmac wrote:Croy I've never been in a game where I bursted before the 25 min mark, not sure if it's bugged or not, but every single time I get at least 25 minutes out of being nested and camped by aliens that are just as pissed off by larva burst times as I am.
The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.

Re: Marines in crit don't burst
Its most likely a pain crit rather than actual crit. If its actual crit, you will die very fast.

Well, that's actually the case.MauroVega wrote:Alien Embryo: Well the host is dead,ill stop eating and die now,i totally needed him alive to eat him

If the host dies, so does the Embryo.
Literally.
Still -1 to this idea. As someone mentioned before, it's most likely just pain crit.
