Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Remove the alien disarm spam. They already have enough special abilities to attack and keep marines from escaping, they don't need the overpowered disarm spam. Now I understand that the disarm doesn't work sometimes, but it is still way too overpowered and makes escape impossible to think about.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
It would allow marines to get a better attempt to escape. It wouldn't make keeping them captured too hard, but would require teamwork as the xenos and management of their xeno ability. It would also give the xenos that like a challenge a bit more of that.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
It would work by making a 3 to 4 second timer between disarms. The timer wouldn't to too long, but it would also keep the xenos from spamming disarm
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
It would work like how the timer for speech and the sound emotes work.

I don't think you would like the end result of this change.
Xenos would learn quite quickly how many slashes to leave you in paincrit, and use it all the time.

Re: remove alien disarm spam
We're looking at melee combat. Disarm is staying as it is while we work it out. Denied.
