The Angry Infantry Returns

[coroneljones]

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):,Pretty much what the title says,an angry Infantry ERT team

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Another ERT team
Change of pace maybe
Throwback to the old days
New playstyle if the first or second loadout are picked

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
We all remember the old saviors,the angry ones,the assholes in Yellow,the Angry Infantry(Marines),give them another chance to (FUCK SHIT UP) purge the xenos scum,today has come the day i suggest their implementation

So a few ideas on their loadout
One is having Them Armed only in their armor,with knives,AKA the melee only choice,maybe give the armor resistance to brute and burn damage,and giving them hulk,they wont be able to use guns (BUT WHO NEEDS THEM? IM GONNA PUNCH THE SHIT OUT OF THAT XENOS SCUM),So a melee focused ERT team,charging head first into the xenos scum

The second is maybe,give them the old ERT gear,making them more of a nostalgia team

And the Third....arm them only with melee weapons and their armor,simmilar to the first one,with hulk being optional but they are still a headcharge first,stab/slam first team,exchaging from combat knives to about any melee weapon(Maybe Chainswords?)

They would be neutral towards the marines,hostile or friendly depending on the situation(Like if the marines suddenly attack them or attempt to capture them,then they can go hostile)
If you guys have any other ideas for this,input would help
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Coding+Optional spriting

I would like this as it brings back some fond memories but perhaps instead of giving them hulk just beef up their armour (kind of like how it use to be).

Not really sure about the chainswords either, I think perhaps that might give too much of a 40k vibe in our custom lore.

Overall I'm not really sure if I quite honest.

[coroneljones]

Well the hulk was mostly to stop them from using guns at all and focus on moving in and getting in range,instead of sticking to the back with guns and beefy armor
And the chainswords was but a mild joke/suggestion for possibly a new weapon(Its a chainsaw..and a sword),but any of the current melee weapons could work


But beefy armor would be pretty good,and if they couldnt use guns,even better,though optional if coding doesnt allow it

Perhaps give angry infantry an altered version of the clown virus? (at least I thinks its the clown virus that blows up weapons in ya hand) to sort out the gun issue.

Sounds good by me,maybe even a message to them that says "GUNS ARE FOR PANSIES THAT STICK TO RANGE!"

[Aredal]

You could always give them something like tg has, a special martial art skill which dissalows them to use guns but LET'S THEM DO SOME COOL HITS! The tg no guns martial arts is the sleeping carp school, but angry marines would propably need to get something without immunity to ranged, (or maybe...?)

[apophis775]

I don't know about this...

[Allan1234]

yes please apop... we need this... please...

[monkeysfist101]

Ehhh... -1
It seems really out of place in the CM universe.

[hockeylife68]

I can see this happening

[Jack McIntyre]

+1 just due to the fact that I like fighting with my knife XD.

Hulk power, as I know it, makes you completely immune to stuns and tripping, so an untripable ERT with an e-sword equivalent would be pretty damn powerful and hard to counter for xenos.

Balance wise if this makes it in I'd rather have them be hostile to everyone or randomly hostile to marines/xenos. Seems a bit unfair to just keep adding in 'xeno purging' ERTs. Also honestly this seems way more 40k than CM.

Randomly hostile could be interesting,"Always Angry all the time"
The rage cant be stopped,anything goes

[apophis775]

I think our ERT is fine as it is and we don't need a 40k version of a joke response team. We have 1 joke response team (pizza) and people complain, I'd rather not make one that was designed to just destroy aliens. Denied.
