Why does it matter if you got decapped or capped? You got round removed either way.
I’ll be frank here, I think your argument that “decapitation should be removed because it negatively affects the hive, since capping can be done instead” is one that you don’t believe in.
I think you’re just salty it happened to you, and are now just attempting to justify your position in any way you can. You kind of basically state that by saying you’re dying on this hill, but honestly that has as much discussion value as the people saying “skill issue”.
It’s also a very weak argument, given that if we sat down and seriously tried to think about how big decapitation’s impact on CM13 is, the reality is that it’s so absurdly rare that it may as well do absolutely nothing.
Furthermore, as stated before by others- You’re not able to cap at all times. Maybe the hive core is down. Maybe the hive is on the run. Maybe you have no way of reaching a cap location. Maybe it’s safer just to perma kill this guy instead. Maybe your sisters have basically already won and you simply wish to dance on the graves of the talls. I could go on.
This mechanic does have it’s actual uses, and is not simply a “griefing” tool.
In the grand scheme of things, it’s just a really funny thing that happens once in a blue moon.
It just gimps xenos. One of the only things you can legaly do that fucks xenos more than it does marine, because as stated, if warrior has time and ability to decap you, he had time and ability to cap you.
Sure, for being capped you get ahead in xeno queue so you can respawn, but whatever.
Thing when I said that I am dying on this hill is that I am not going to be gaslighted or change my opinion simply to peer pressure. I will also not drop this unless lad gave good points.
Also I have been fair about this and conceited some points, some of the points were good and have softed my view of decaps.
You say it does not have a big impact but that does not make it good. also even though some of the points were fair and i said as much. but i never see decaps at such times, to be fair it may just because its rare, but really its seem to me that its not worth the risk or effort.
The times I ever see or even get decaped is when the xenos are in a good place, times when the points made are non issues.
as for ‘greifing’ tool well look at all the mockery with out a point. its clear lads do it for the ‘funnies’. well yes decaping can be used in a meaningful, how much is it actually used in the manner that is useful.
Now i am willing to concede that it in the end may not be worth the time to change it. Also the issue with it denying caps can be fix by making it, so a decap has a chance of giving a larb. Or have it give royal resin or what ever its called.
Or you can have it so warrior can Delimb really fast but take away there decaping. again will keep the ‘funnies’ as they say.
Also keep in mind got quite the headache its make me more pissy about shit. but that doesn’t change the fact that I never had like how the decaps worked. I don’t even like how kill happy xenos are to ez caps but at lest I can understand it, and this is really a extension of that issue.
if the forum is not the place to take my concerns to than what’s the point of being a forum.
If you watch the movies you can see xenos headbiting and stuff instead of capping. They are brutal fearsome creatures, they aren’t supposed to be gentle to you or your feelings lol.
Decapping is so rare and counter productive for xenos (because they lose a potential cap) that I don’t understand why someone would find it an issue, in conclusion, git gud.
if your about to get decapped chances are, your about to get capped too. It also requires 2 players to decap, so your gonna get round removed either way. Either captured or decapitated
Couldn’t walk around this post.
Another marine angry on something
Decap is grief, decap is grief. When people just kill the easy caps, it not grief.
God. You trying to find excuse for people, who join xeno just to kill. And they straight says it.
But this kill is rightful, and decap is not.
You know what?
Get gud. And don’t expect, that monster from the space gonna be gentle. Or others people will play, how you want. Roll queen for that.
Ah yes let’s take it simply: you not getting fun decapped, doesn’t mean they not getting fun decap you; you think it’s a waste or whatever, they don’t think it’s a waste.
The question would be: why would it be nerfed because you didn’t like it?
P.S: you may justify it as “die on a hill”, but it’s essentially a cope thread.
It’s rare for severely injured marines to get decapitated successfully since paincrit people tend to asphyxiate to death during the 30 seconds, so a fair chunk of decapitations are done on conscious humans. That’s 30 seconds of RAW, UNINTERRUPTED HIGH-ROLEPLAY TIME, which is already more time spent RPing than your average PFC in a whole round.
In the future, I strongly recommend everyone to use all 30 seconds wisely by contributing to the immersion and atmosphere of the situation for both yourself and the prime warrior ripping your head off by pleading for your life, babbling incoherently, screaming for mercy, crying wildly or begging for your mother to save you.
CM13 thrives on such high-roleplay experiences, which will surely create a positive environment for both the prime warrior ripping your head off, and you, the person getting their head ripped off.
TL;DR Decapitation/delimbing is a HRP and soulful gameplay mechanic that must stay forever.
i say its dying on hill be that exactly what its. i never liked the decap mechanic, i don’t like decaping in general over all, even out side of warrior stuff.
Here’s the thing i WAS going to delete this post, after the first few post that had made some good points. they had convince me at the time that it not really that much of issue, that my assessment was wrong… BUT than i saw the shitty ‘ha ha funny decap’ posts that were streaming in, if it was just one fine… but no it was repeated with out a point attached.
one of my key issue is i find warrior decaping is toxic, and low and behold… whats is so many lads main point? ‘decap is le funny’
what’s more is so many lads are not engaging with the key point.
I don’t fucking care if this is not a fucking popular opinion, i stand by it. i not going to be bullied into changing my mind. lads have made there good points, but others have just showed to me that my key issue was not wrong.
That is the spirit of forums, always was after CM discord was introduced. Normal people are never active here and I think I am a great example of such ridiculous person.
The only distinction between Discussion, Acid Goop and Idea Guys is that on Idea Guys the powerfull spell of “Code It Yourself” doesn’t work.
So out of spite, make a PR that removes warrior decap (shouldn’t be hard, just deleting few lines of code I imagine). In reasoning say it is needlessly harming xenos and encourages players to kill 100% sure caps. The xenocord after seeing such explanation will be all onboard with it, since it is kind of a buff for xenos.
Guess thats true, ahaha i too my self am quite the ridiculous person. I do tend to have too much of a stubborn streak. i don’t always agree with you much cabal but do know i do vary much appreciate the thought you put into your posts.
shame i don’t know how to code but maybe i should learn, at lest that way no matter what i will have gotten the matter dealed with by the farthest i can go. anyhow codeing is a good skill to have.
