Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
While equally hilarious and annoying, state of the art in Xenomorph technology, the tactical banana peel should be removed because its annoying as fuck.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
No more slipping and sliding just to get double facehuggered.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
No more bullshit deaths.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Remove all banana peels from map.
Here we see 4 dead marines who died one way or another to the tactical banana peel.

Since xenos can't move the peels, it's a static map hazard.
I say good on the xeno for being robust, shame on the marines for not watching their footing.

+1. It's a dumb Baycode hold over; either get rid of the slip properties on soap/bananas or remove em.

no, because you literally ran into a banana peel all other marines avoided which allowed me to promptly decap your arse. pick it up for shite's sake and throw it away or store it in the backpack to dispose of later, I literally do that as a marine all the time.

It's scientifically proved you can't properly slip on a banana. At least remove slip on banana. +1
Otherwise I do believe you should watch your footing though. Train hard for HG aye?

I died to it but my corpse was moved from the area for further slashing.
The problem with static banana peels is that marines have limited vision in the dark making them more likely to run into those banana peels. I still think getting killed by slipping on a banana peel in the dark is a pretty dumb way to die.

leaning toward -1, marines really shouldn't be running around alone anyway, they should be in groups, so if you did trip a fellow marine could protect you/help you up. If you're walking around alone you're probably gonna get hugged/die anyway.

I don't really see a point to banana peels existing on the map. Shouldn't you be stunned by something other than a banana peel on CM? Surely, combat should be more interesting and tense than just banana peel slipping on CM.

+1 It's a holdover from something not related CM. If you don't want to mess with the code, just go in and remove the existing banana peels from the map and save us all from the stupidity. Bars of soap I don't really give a shit about.

-1. it's your fault if you don't watch your footing, slip, and die. it's really easy to get rid of these banana peels in the first place, just look at what Egorkor said

-1 while i agree that slipping on a banana peel is a stupid way to die its a bit stupid for you to not notice the banana in the first place isn't it? just avoid the bananas and have a fine time. besides like superman122 said slipping on a banana peel is hardly a big deal if you've got the rest of a squad to back you up

I think it's kind of a stupid holdover from Bay, but with the mechanics we have now it's decent enough. It's staying in for the moment.
