Hello,
I suugest a type of proximity mine for anti personel that deals no damage but instead causes the players to be thrown into the air when passing by. This would work as a stalling mechanism as well as not be OP because you are only taking fall damage that is not lethal and preventable in open areas with the inertia damps. This proxi mine would be for strategic defence And I see its use like a momentary disruption of advancement instead of a killing tool.
This is a totally achievable thing to work into the game since all the code and mechanics are already in place. All they have to do is change the value on the proximity mine to zero damage and make the gravity explosion hurl the player into the air. |

While I don't see a place in the game for this, and don't see much practical application, and no real reason to use this, I'm going to +1 it just because of all the hilarity that I can see happening.
Really, I think I might wet myself. |

If these worked on vehicles than there would be no need for AV mines lol I can just see those tanks getting launched into orbit XD
Oh dam that's entertainment.
Let them be thrown like grenades and it can be used to stop a logi while you deal with his teammates.
Heavy runs up HMG in hand and has a logi reping him. You toss one of these bad boys at the logi and away he goes! If you are a minja then you can handle the fatty before the logi even has time to land on your knife.
Ya know it feels like it's main value would come if it were an impact grenade. If so then I know I would use it like a boss. XD
Oh man I think i'm rambling so I think I'll end it here. |

Most easily abused suggestion I have EVER seen on this forum bar none! And there have been some wackadoodle suggestions here.
You should go play some Super Mario if you want stuff like that. |

Such a troll :P... Anyway All I see when new stuff is suggested are things to actually kill people or variations of already existent things. This is the only tactical thing posted here that doesn't involve doing damage to opther players. As for it being abused I strongly disagree. Things like the logi LAV and caldari logi suit where often abused because it actually gave an edge on killing opponents. Here is a weapon the really does not do any damage or kill anyone but instead gives a strategic option. People are more interested in killing people than they are on being strategic so no it won't be abused. Anyway, it's just a fun idea t give the game some interesting futuristic things. |

I think a better idea is EMP grenade/mine. It should mess with the neocom killing the minimap and aspects (like the chevrons) of the HUD. One would still have sights and could shoot but is lost to where they are and making it more difficult to distinguish friend from foe. This would be non-lethal. |

The problem with this isn't using it on other players, the problem comes when you use it on yourself to gain access to areas that were previously not accessible on the map. Which compounds problems for map makers, and makes it so if you are not carrying this item you cannot reach your opponent. I'm not going to say its isn't an interesting idea, but just because its interesting doesn't make it a good on.
Again my main reason for saying "-10^n" for this is because it creates more problems than the "cool factor" it gives the game. My opinion is that the game should "fixed" before new features are added. |

Actually, I suggested remote sensor packs a little while ago. Something to give advanced warning when someone is creeping up your butt.

Well, the Caldari have been dipping their fingers in gravimetric tech for a while.
I think the version of this that I could see working would be less of a "reverse gravity" weapon (which, while entertaining, is probably not a good idea) and more of a distortion grenade / mine.
Consider: a mine that produces a brief, violent local gravitational distortion. All in the area take a hit of kinetic damage (maybe 200-400 or so, depending on tech level) and get thrown around violently and at random, disorienting targets and potentially either hurling them out from under cover or smashing them against walls.
Thoughts? |
