Task: Spike strips #13389

Open N3X15 opened 7 years ago

N3X15 commented 7 years ago

Rolling vehicles (wheelchairs, janicarts, MULES) need a counter. I propose the humble spike strip.

Pros

Cons

Probe1 commented 7 years ago

As cool as that is we're not balancing around horribly broken mules and none of these things listed will be carried JUST IN CASE THIS ONE RARE THING HAPPENS. We're just gonna not have broken mules.

SonixApache commented 7 years ago

make it hurt running people that aren't wearing jackboots / magboots and you've got something pretty good @Probe1 having an actual weapon against the clowncart would be a big plus

Kurfursten commented 7 years ago

I don't think they should have a long throwdistance, like maybe 2 (as AME parts). But yeah, more security toys are always great fun. Make it lockable like the security barriers.

Probe1 commented 7 years ago

Oh no @SonixApache I think it's an awesome idea. I'm just not going to balance the game around 50 damage every 0.5 seconds via a mule by making an anti mule object. I'm going to normalize the mule.

on janicarts?

uh dude, for what purpose?? the janicart is already fragile enough as is, a laser shot or two will destroy it with no hope for repair, and no way to get a new one in-round
