Erect A Statue of Everett Dreyfus, Xenoslayer In Briefing
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Per the subject.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
The uncanny likeliness of the Xenoslayer, saver of hum-ens shall forever serve as an indelible beacon of inspiration for all marinekind.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Add a statue of The Xenoslayer to briefing, complete with a plaque detailing his many impressive, legendary feats for those woefully ignorant of them.
It emits a faint light whose source cannot be determined as though bearing silent testament to his glory.
The statue is indestructible and immune to corrosive acid since Everett Dreyfus was both of those things.
Resin structures and weeds may not grow/be built within a one tile radius of it.
Supplemental: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULWgEnn ... u.be&t=754

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

I missed something apparently Q_Q
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.

+1, but I feel that it would require Everett in question to stop being the character.
Can't have a statue of a guy who is still running around, y'know?
Unless we just want to ignore it ICly in favour of GLORY and flavour.

Re: Erect A Statue of Everett Dreyfus, Xenoslayer In Briefing
-1 on just giving a specific player a unique reference, let alone a statue, in game. It would seem a bit odd if a Standard Marine on the Sulaco is being celebrated for a act he's yet to do against a enemy he's yet to fight, and I just hate player reference items in general.
However, I like the idea of a commemorative/celebratory statue, however I feel if there is to be one it should NOT reference any particular player but instead be a reference to the 'unknown marine', a marine who's acts, whatever you want to imagine them to be, will not be forgotten. A unknown marine is better than a reference to a player that damn well may be playing in that round,
Here's a neat image of a SS13 example from the /tg/station forum.

Re: Erect A Statue of Everett Dreyfus, Xenoslayer In Briefing
bugger deserved it, but rather than glorifying him, make it a statue of a squad standard and add some hints indicating it was him in the examine text.

That'd be okay I suppose. Only if xenobane is included though.Egorkor wrote:bugger deserved it, but rather than glorifying him, make it a statue of a squad standard and add some hints indicating it was him in the examine text.

+1 in favour of the statue to an anonymous squad standard who slew an unknown alien species with the blade Xenobane.

Suggestions isn't the right place for this. Please keep to serious suggestions; everything else can go in general or acid goup.

Undenied. It was very legendary and there has been discussion of this in the past so this can stay for now.

I wouldn't mind having his weapon go in the predator trophy room, but having a statue on the sulaco is a no-go for me.

This seems like a genuinely good idea. I can think of no greater gift for a predator to bestow upon a particularly legendary marine than XENOBANE.monkeysfist101 wrote:I wouldn't mind having his weapon go in the predator trophy room, but having a statue on the sulaco is a no-go for me.
