Aliens given a small boost when devouring a dead body

Post by Lucius Jones » 26 Aug 2016, 12:24

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Aliens get a small health or plasma regeneration boost when they have eaten a dead body

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It is realistic as humans, if they do not eat anything, do not heal very well. ENCOURAGES aliens to eat the damn dead that litter freaking everywhere after a attack.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Once a person has been eaten, it would increase the aliens regeneration of plasma and or health like influenced by a tier 1 pheromone regeneration until the person is digested. Because of this, Might suggest decreasing the time the alien has a person in it's stomach by half, so not to be very OP.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Once a person has been eaten, have a pheromone effect over them.

Pretty small buff for ayylmaos. Wouldn't suggest making it stacking.

We're actually going to disable aliens eating dead bodies shortly for obvious reasons.

Even if this was accepted this would probably be the pinnacle of the salt from marines, which means a hellish deadchat.

In regards of the armour lights, in-theory you could just have an abillity for the xenos to slash after the marine has died once and that would take out the armour light.

Honnestly, even if Feweh wouldn't have denied it I would've heavely -1'd it. Aliens don't devour marines as a starter and usually use them for 'compost' for their hive nodes. The simple idea of promoting devouring annoys me to extremes since it'd just cause even more salt, devouring and generally less RP opportunity where a body is left-over or the queen refuses to destroy bodies to 'RPly' feed the weeds, (AKA: Me saying bodies and gore helps weeds grow in IC when it don't (I sad)).
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.

What would this matter after cloning is removed?

In response to Sarah. I mean it's not like they don't eat us anyways. Sentinel stacks bodies and then consumes them all.

Defibs are getting a hefty buff when cloning is removed. Marines could still be revived for quite some time after dying, just horribly mangled.

I used to have dreams that eating a dead body would give me 50 extra jelly.

Needless to say in these dream rounds the planet was always clear of bodies.

And during Sulaco assaults the Marines would keep getting respites even during the escape shuttle with 30 seconds left, by Xenos constantly eating the dead.

Good times.
I play Xeno 99% of the time. All castes.
