Is research properly cucked now?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen any “godstims” being mass produced and dispensed to the fob for a long time since the research reworks occur. There have been times that bonemending stims were produced before first launch. Which to be fair is a very important property to have as anything that can restore fractures rather than waiting for fob doc or going back to the almayer is very strong.

I’ve seen decent stims, queen/rav piercing fire, and Corrupted Xenos groundside in a single round recently. Research is not “cucked”.

Edit: fair point, ‘decent stim’ instead or ‘godstim’

the reworks were only test merged, never full merged, nothing has actually changed.

those weren’t godstims, they just made you run fast and hyperdensified your bones
source: I made them

The term “godstim” will be so watered in the near future that even bonemending and antiparasitic will become a “godstim”.

if so
Goodbye stims, rest in hell

honestly that’s only part of the battle tho. nuke should be next (or nerfed) … Marines should not be rewarded for overdefensive objective play IMO.

Noone wants to fight a gargoyle for 30 minute to an hour, no one wants to play as a gargoyle for 30 minute to an hour. Grindy boring slop.

Research has been unchanged since August, with the most recent nerf being in May with the inability to have most MST and NST in the same stim Research major property rebalance by iloveloopers · Pull Request #6225 · cmss13-devs/cmss13 · GitHub

Research is still extremely powerful, all you need to do is spend 10 PFC points on fultons and JTAC comms and fulton the three rav corpses that you walk past on your way to the frontlines and suddenly you’ll get godstims at 1:30 instead of 2:30.

When you were talking about bonemending on first drop, you were likely refering to Research Rework Part Two: The Contract System. by kiVts · Pull Request #7023 · cmss13-devs/cmss13 · GitHub where researchers could actually get bonemending before first drop to distribute to marines. It’s been on Draft.

TL:DR FULTON XENO BODIES IT TAKES YOU 2 SECONDS

“I’ve seen things, you people wouldn’t believe, god stimmed marines running at mach 5 off the shoulder of Chances. I’ve watched Corrupted Xenos slither in the dark, near the Prime hive gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time, to, cryo.”

Interesting so with the research rework part two if I am reading this correctly fultoning xenos will do nothing for research? And it seems research will not be reliant on IO’s for chems?

Well done.

Meanwhile the gunship pilot and DCC are both ignoring the JTAC radio the moment someone says “FULTON”.

I’m going to create a botfarm that only ever rolls research to finally give the department the nerf it deserves (removal)

The horror.

Nerf research again please. It feels like every round I’ve been part of lately if the xenos don’t absolutely roll the marines in the first engagement and the fight drags on more than thirty minutes I’m dealing with marines moving faster than runners and immune to stuns.

Research terminated. I’m sorry to interrupt you Tyrone, if you still even remember that name, but I’m afraid you’ve been misinformed. You’re not here to receive a stim, nor have you been called here by the individual you assume, although you have indeed been called. You have all been called here, into a lab(yrinth) of stims and greenos, misdirection and misfortune. A lab(yrinth) with no exit, a maze with no prize. You don’t even realize that you are trapped. Your lust for godstims has driven you in endless circles, chasing the cries of research credits in some unseen intel crate always seeming so near, yet somehow out of reach. But you will never find them, none of you will. This is where your story ends.

And to you, my brave CMO, who somehow found this job listing not intended for you, although there was a way out planned for you, I have a feeling that’s not what you want. I have a feeling that you are right where you want to be. I am remaining as well. I am nearby. This place will not be remembered and the memory of everything that started this can finally begin to fade away, as the agony of every marine major should. And to you greenos trapped in the corridors, be still, and give up your spirits. They don’t belong to you. For most of you, I believe there is peace and perhaps more waiting for you after the smoke clears. Although for one of you, the darkest pit of LV-624 has opened to swallow you whole, so don’t keep the lurker meta gang waiting, old friend.

My Intelligence Officer, if you can hear me, I knew you would return as well. It’s in your nature to protect the innocent. I’m sorry that on that PR, the PR you were shut out and left to die, no one was there to lift you up into their meta, the way you lifted others into yours. And then, what became of you? I should have known you wouldn’t be contempt to just disappear, not my Intelligence Officer. I couldn’t save you then, so let me save you now.

It’s time to rest. For you, and those you have carried in your arms. This ends, for all of us. End communication.
