[Research] Resin Paste

Post by Swagile » 18 Mar 2017, 22:34

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Make it so using Resin paste, instead of just fixing your helmet, gives you 2 hugger protection instead of 1.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): Gives more of an incentive to bring corpses back if it means getting a paste that will save you from a double hugger. And it makes it so its not useless since any good RO can beat the resources put into the resin paste.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): 'Nuff said.

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

Yah, ill +1. its a pretty good idea. Hell considering that resin paste tube only fixes i think 1 or so helmets, giving it some nice use of extra hugger protection would be cool.

(Also welding steel plates to fix helmets, but ehh another day)

But seriously, does uh, anyone know the way out?!

+1

Once you consider the supply chain and the average amount of xeno corpses actually brought back to the sulaco this wouldn't probably make that big of a difference generally speaking. I'm all for research being expanded and more projects being available from corpse research.

EDIT: I thought about this a little more and in the average round (at least in my experience) if the marines are losing and constantly being assaulted and driven back they aren't going to have time to actually collect corpses. Additionally, the rasp is going to be going up and down hauling wounded that there won't be enough time to place xeno bodies on. As such a change like this would really only make a difference in rounds where marines are already winning, this makes it sort of a "win more" update. This means that under ideal circumstances this update would sort of help marines secure a victory after initially take the advantage.
