This gives me a few moments of rolling (presumably) under your shots so I can safely disarm you. Man. To me it looked like he opened the door and you walked out and easily took my gun. I didn't realize you could duck shots. No wonder I couldn't hit you and I was so confused. Nerd boxing is hard with a laptop track pad. Were you the guy that blew up the bar with the RPG? When that happened I ran away. SnotGrumble fucked around with this message at 23:22 on Dec 7, 2013 |

Making and leaving a dozen or so Vuvuzelas around the station really was the best thing with the new sound system. The sounds of space will forever be full of the buzzing chorus.

To go along with suplexes, how about having running into someone with empty hands and harm intent clotheslining them? Only if you've run a certain distance first without being interrupted though (say 10-15 squares).

I think in all likelihood, that will lead to lots of people in the main hallhay getting clotheslined by people who forget they're on harm, and jerks doing it and pretending that's what happened. Maybe if its restricted to while wearing luchadore masks like some of the other suggestions. Or make being a pro-wrestler a power genetics can unlock. Involuntary Wrasslosis.

I feel like every time I get the objective to have the cryo tanks running smoothly at the end of the round, Genetics explodes. This is compared to Genetics exploding only 90% of the time if I don't have the objective.

Are the cryo tanks useful given that you can make up cryostylane/cryoxadone mixes and administer freezing healing in-situ?

They're useful for when you have a whole pile of wounded in medbay and for when medbay gets blown up and you have to crawl somewhere to save your life.

This is compared to Genetics exploding only 90% of the time if I don't have the objective. Speaking of this objective, I believe it's still broken in the sense that while it awards you for the cryo tanks being active at the end of the round, you don't actually want the cryo tanks to be active when nobody is in them since that wastes the cryoxadone (Unless this has been changed in the past two years)

I thought you just needed the square cryo machine to be active, not the tanks themselves. The other thing only uses up oxygen from the canister.

Cicadalek posted:I thought you just needed the square cryo machine to be active, not the tanks themselves. The other thing only uses up oxygen from the canister. No, that's the problem, unless it's been changed. You need at least one tube to be running too. The crew objectives are mostly bad anyway. (With the exception of the Electrician ones, that ease you into all their basic mechanics.)

So. I found out that leaving genetics alone for too long as a vampire is a bad plan, since I forgot that thermal makes you immune to lasers. Anyone got any advice for how to be a successful vampire?

I drank a bottle of "Fast juice that's b" and now I'm drunk, in crit, losing oxygen and randomly getting speed boosts. I got healed but my oxygen loss made it impossible to communicate my condition. Zeether fucked around with this message at 15:31 on Dec 8, 2013 |

I started playing circa 2006, shortly after I was made a programmer then roughly a year later made a wizard (I was also the first programmer and first wizard made that they didn't directly know IRL). I mostly do backend things, you can blame revamped mapping system and bigmaps, for example.

Would a combustion chamber that large be any more effective or dangerous? How quickly can it be vented? E: wait, do those crystal windows open onto public areas, allowing passerby to admire the hellburns?! Dr Cheeto fucked around with this message at 18:07 on Dec 8, 2013 |

There don't appear to be any vents. Really, that just looks like a lot of more for the sake of more. It doesn't matter how long you make the pipes in there, the temperature in the pipes will never rise above the temperature outside them. That chamber would take a ton of plasma for practically no benefit, and it consumes space that would be better used by other departments.

Anyone got any advice for how to be a successful vampire? How could you possibly be an unsuccessful vampire? I never once failed to be an unstoppable slasher and go nearly undetected Anyway, it may be a little campery/griefy, but my advice is to bite on AFKers and late arrivals to build up on blood and get better powers. Use powers sparingly though, a crowbar to the head works wonders to stun victims. Snack on corpses and steal IDs. Stalk maintenance corridors once you're invisible in the darkness Don't forget to kill in style. Drag your victims to the observatory or the howlery for that extra ambience. Make one of them your secret nest. Leave a pile of exsanguinated cadavers to be found by a horrified assistant E: and don't be too proud to only go after soft targets and run away at the littlest hint of red uniform or trenchcoat.
