Remove alien mines from map

[Warnipple]

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Remove alien mines from map.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Prevents metagaming by Marines.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Marines shouldn't know how alien mines work. This prevents Marines going to temple because they know that there are pred mines there and using them for defense. The most frustrating thing as an alien is to run into an alien mine as a t3 and die to gunfire while being knocked down and slowed. Its not marine equipment, it shouldn't be used by marines unless given to them by a predator.

I don't fully agree to this, since they're good fluff and give the temple a real "personality" as a past predator hunting lodge.
I'd rather we simply restrict the usage of the mines to the "yautja" species and if someone else tries to "prime" it, they simply get denied with some weird message.
I think the mines in lore also needed some imput in yautja language to be primed and placed down, so it would make sense from that stand point as well.
+0.5, I'd rather we just restrict them to predators.

How about we make it clamp onto your hand if you try to prime it as a human? Muhahahahahaha.

But yes, I agree, most Predator technology is unusable to Humans for a reason.

[EXOTICISME]

A simple coding can fix this easier. Just make it only useable by Yautja species so when marines tried to use it they will get a message like "You don't understand how this thing work"

I think having them backfire 50% of the time would be hilarious.

If marines decide to use it, 50% you lose your arm and 50% it works.

By lose do you mean break it? Cause if its removing a whole arm thats a bit much. I'd recommend it just breaks some bones or something.

[doodeeda]

Yeah, humans should stick to human technology. Go proximity mines! Heheh.

[Sarah_U.]

Personally I'm fine with their presence, but I feel like it'd be nice if you'd need a crowbar to activate it due to the sheer strenght involved (Yautjas are much stronguer than you are aye?)
Anyway, each time people talk about pred mines I just see a bear trap with cushion instead of fangs.

[Fritigern]

+1 I'm completely fine with removing them entirely as a map spawn.

[Iatots]

Maybe make the lodge less of a joke to break into?

[outordinary]

+1

I would feel better with them just being usable by yautjas only.

[MauroVega]

Fully explained on all of the above

[Bigchilly]

Seen a marine get his own bud captured via accidently stepping on one, they are pain, and marines attempt to use them but fail.

[Boltersam]

Bump.

Or have some sort've bad thing happen if a Marine tries to activate one. Like chomping his hand and handcuffing him.

[Eenkogneeto]

Im so-so about this, As an alien you can just take 5 seconds to melt them you know? im all for anything that gets sentinels doing something useful.

This has to be a thing

Old, lack of continued interest.

Locking.
