Pulling live xenos tail shenanigans

[Boris]

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): A verb inside Alien or IC or OBJECT for the toggleability on when a marine pulls a xeno and it knocks them down via tail, the ability to toggle that OFF and ON for Roleplay purposes.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
More chance for Xeno marine roleplay to work out without getting ass blasted to USA, Hopefully the Roleplaying of others will inspire others to rp.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Its a verb, You press it, Any-marine who pulls you won't get knocked down, do it again and it will knock them down again, Roleplay.

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

[Swagile]

Rules kinda discourage roleplay like this from happening, so I don't see this being a thing.

Aka your not supposed to be friendly, and even if you ARE friendly, marines don't need to meta know that your dangerous creatures; they can fire upon you regardless. They just can't chase you across the map just to kill you.

Those two things combined kinda nullifies any roleplay xenos can do with marines on first contact.

[Rocco Ward]

I'm going to +1 this, but I think codewise - this should be a really low priority.

[Karmac]

I'm going to -1 this simply because it promotes behaviour we really don't want to see. aka Marine versus Alien in the latest version of Dance Dance Revolution.

Stop being friendly to marines you fucking xeno nerds. You're supposed to be killing machines.

There was a reason this was implemented, and it was mainly because marines would pull queens or slow t3's, making them unable to escape for a few seconds, thus letting marines kill them most of the time, or using the vital SADAR, i know this because i abused the fuck out of it when i got close to a queen.

Why would you ever want to NOT whip a marine in the head with your tail when he is trying to pull you so he can kill you?

Was roleplaying one round, Acting harmless, muhreens don't instantly purge me (oh god yaasss) after a while guy tries to pull me to probably take me somewhere (surrounded by muhreens, guy gets knocked down, everyone goes ballistic and purges me, RP End)

Was this ordered by the queen? because if not...


Act like a Xenomorph - You are not a pet or best friends with the marines.

Triple J just about summed it up. Xenomorphs have no sense of individualism or have much of a docile state. They're killing machines with the sole intent of multiplying. They're a Gospel that drags in a crowd and demands more and more people join them in the gospel with purpose of never ending. There's also a matter of how xenomorphs have no natural selection to begin even if the Queen never had dominance in the hivemind, they're still killing to reproduce, if they were to be friendly to humans, then they'd grow a conscience. If they grew a conscience, they'd more or less, be more likely to be killed than the ones without one.
