Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Let's be honest, you wear a spacesuit/be one of the mercenaries with the hardsuit, you go out there, get chased down by a boiler and die because even a boiler is faster than you, you can't even get up because the armour on these things is absolutely terrible. I don't mind 'the not getting back up' part as much as I mind the 'not being able to even have a chance to run away' part.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Stops spess-suit marines and mercs from dying within 5 minutes of putting on their suits.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Just give the spacesuit and mercenary compression suits a little bit more speed than what they currently have. A marine missing a leg is currently faster than both of them.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
A little coding.

You know a fun meme? examine the space suit in t comms, the one that looks like ERT's engineer suit, it says its "heavily armored", but its helmet is ripped off by one hugger and is instantly punctured by one drone slash, kek

Superior armour is clearly inferior to spess hugger.MrJJJ wrote:You know a fun meme? examine the space suit in t comms, the one that looks like ERT's engineer suit, it says its "heavily armored", but its helmet is ripped off by one hugger and is instantly punctured by one drone slash, kek

Re: Speedbuff while wearing a spacesuit/Mercenaries suit
Yeah I got confused about that too. The low pressure hardsuit is currently weaker than just going naked in your PJ's and fighting xenos; at least your faster in PJ's.

Re: Speedbuff while wearing a spacesuit/Mercenaries suit
It's a heavy, armored space suit. It's supposed to be slow and cumbersome, but also protective. I don't see why this needs to change. Denied.
