Defib nerf
« on: September 29, 2014, 12:26:14 PM »

It's too easy to dominate with a swarm with the current defib mechanic. Doesn't matter how many you kill, if you are outnumbered, you get pushed and your kills are negated by enemy defibs. You can do it in sneak, it doesn't de-sneak you, no AP penalty, instant Jesus ressurection with 100% chance, very low Doc requirement.
My suggestions to try balance this:
-Doc reqs, auto defib - 150% doc; manual - 200% doc.
-De-sneak the user on use; the use starts a 10 second timer that can be interrupted by entering sneak,moving,shooting or any other action; if the timer is not interrupted, the target is ressurected and the defib user gets -200ap penalty.

My suggestion : when you defib someone, you die.


Just kidding... Usually a person dies because he is in a bad position so you can kill him again if debif during a fight.

I don't mind defibs becoming more specialized, but I think they fulfill a vital function: They are greater stimulus towards rushing instead of camping. If you know your mates will defib you after glorious victory, then people have more reason to go on offense, not to mention they get opportunity to get fat l00tz and lessens the hassle of stashing someone else's shit.

Defib counter is simple: Snipers, sneakers and powerful criticals. Can't defib someone gored apart. Or force them to run out of defibs through prodding attacks (althrough that risks another faction attacking). Or just kill all the enemy crew.

Reviving a dead player, one of the greatest features ever in FOnline history, and this Guy wants to nerf it. IMO they're fine, its just the sneakers that need the nerf.

I'm a field doctor/medic,  and I've almost always had to risk my life to defib someone. It saps ALL of you AP, plus some, and they don't come back at full HP.  If they were in a safe area they deserve to get defibbed easily. Most of the time when I defib someone, it involes me making a mad dash towards them and firing bursts everywhere until I get within rdefib range. And even when I do successfully get there, 3/5 times they just get instakilled as soon as they stand up.  Even when I successfully defib someone without them dying, I don't often walk away from it with more than 10-50 hp.  Its incredibly risky atm, and if you're having a problem, they are a lot of skilled players who understand how to cover their medics.

I can't comprehend why does defib has no 'cost' a simple example is stealth boy,  it has charges and defib doesn't?  =/.  Seems fishy.

Have you ever seen or used an AED in real life?  They charge themselves, and if not you can do it manually. Same with manual defibrillators.

Needs to cost AP to resurrect someone at least, 100 or 150 would be appropriate.

Currently bodies of dead players could be resurrected if not get critical death animation.
How about ability to finish such bodies with e.g. fire / expositions so they can not be resurrected?
