What it consists of:

  1. Development of the idea of evolution and symbiosis with the parasite presented in the form of pumping (as from BG3 or add a new "slot" pumping talents symbiot).
  2. Expansion of Lore. Add the ability to take the company through the path of the Church of Husk, making them the 3rd "strong" faction. Add a job as a church novice(acolyte+).
  3. New system of parasite control and its interaction with the host. Ability for the parasite to take control of certain body parts or organs. Full-fledged surgery to extract the parasite(neurotrauma).
  4. Parasite = gene splicer. Develop the parasite's ability to consume the dna of other creatures, improving itself(prototype).
  5. Combine with "Neurotrauma" and "Hungry Europans", and bring it all into the main game.

so basically bringing neurotrauma into the main game... There are things that are better when they are just mods, you know?

slim gorge
#

Yeah I'd rather not have either of those mods in the game, no offense to the mods themselves

#

I also think a cultist as a whole job is a bad idea

humble sphinx
#

same. Love both of them, but vanilla is vanilla for a reason

slim gorge
#

A talent tree revolving around the husk could work

#

But a whole job?

#

nay

humble sphinx
#

all up for husk expansion though. But this is a bit too... extreme

patent gulch
slim gorge
#

That is basically a lol no

#

Pant slot is in there for a meme

#

Not everyone likes playing with Neurotrauma or Hungry Europans

#

They are better as mods

#

Long term plans is the real probably next stuff

#

PVP Overhaul is being looked into for example to a degree

#

probably wont be a full overhaul though

humble sphinx
#

Well, the guy above said everything. And not even talking about how completely changing core mechanic of the game and adding a new one on a whim is a terrible idea

slim gorge
#

I dont want food to be added as a stat meter personally

#

Hunger goes down therefore eat

#

As for Neurotrauma, people still get confused by vanilla

#

My ideal version of food would be something akin to monster hunter's food system, which is why I'm modding it in

#

yeah thats part of it

#

its also in the hub

#

not during missions

patent gulch
#

hmm, sounds interesting, and they probably will (if they get there). Good luck with your development.

slim gorge

#

and food would just add more tedious tasks to the game rather than actually adding difficulty

#

not everyone wants that

#

I'm actively opposed to it

#

makes overcomplicated

#

I like having it be more simple

#

it's more fun that way

neat ingot
#

why add the NT and HE?????

#

like what

gritty oxide
# neat ingot like what

exactly
these people, specifically it seems ppl who like food mods and/or neurotrauma, think that everyone plays the way that they do, that is the only fun way, and that they should force that way on everyone else

ivory gulch
#

nobody is going to spend all that time un-learning default medical and learning neurotrauma

#

the most fun i’ve had in neurotrauma is repeatedly stabbing somebody in the head with a needle

#

and i doubt i’ll be having any fun or success with it unless i have a degree

humble sphinx
#

tbh neurotrauma isn't that hard, basically all you have to do is remember few basic tools and procedures, and after that you can treat the person in like 70% of cases. If even I could study it - that's saying something. But I can see how some people might not like it, yeah

ivory gulch
#

combat based game

#

combat needs medical help

slim gorge
#

A lot of the consensus I see is that its more fun for the medic at the cost of everyone else having to afk for ages

ivory gulch
#

playing medic is pretty fun

#

it’s only a little draining in base game

#

i can’t imagine it in NT

slim gorge
#

Neurotrauma is good for more roleplay orientated sessions

gritty oxide
lone hearth
#

Also it’s quite time consuming and by the time you have successfully revived a crewmate the rest of the crew will probably be dead.

ivory gulch
#

they want the medical system to not require studying

#

and for people to understand it

paper stratus
#

The game is already complicated for some as is, adding neurotrauma into the main game would be a disaster... The majority of players I meet in public don't even know how to treat the most basic wounds, and the games overwhelming interface does not help

#

Add neurotrauma and you lose what little playerbase the game still has

minor berry
#

agreed

deep swallow
#

make medic's useless poison tree the husk tree if husk tree were to be implemented, and move all the crafting recipies from that into other talents.

ivory gulch
#

it has ITS USES

#

besides the endocrine it is good

slim gorge
#

When the only good things in the acid tree are unrelated

ivory gulch
#

the things that don’t are good

deep swallow

paper stratus
#

we have a clown one

deep swallow
#

greyshirt tree isnt used anyway

#

why not just get rid of it CaptainSmooth

minor berry
#

and back in the day clown could oneshot anything

#

and no its not a joke

paper stratus
neat ingot
#

remove clown tree CaptainSmooth

deep swallow
#

then its useless

minor berry
neat ingot
minor berry
#

you will not remove it

deep swallow
#

remove all assistant's trees

minor berry
#

im going to find youCaptainClown

deep swallow
neat ingot
#

make assistant just a dude

minor berry
#

and if he has clown tree fully done he is the dude

neat ingot
#

but not just a dude

minor berry
neat ingot
#

assistant needs to just be some regular person

#

no talents

#

no nothin

#

only thing they're assisting is cannon fodder

deep swallow
ivory gulch
#

i dare ANYBODY to find one

neat ingot
ivory gulch
#

the only thing that comes close is the defense bot

neat ingot
ivory gulch
#

actually

#

yeah robotics is

neat ingot
#

oh final trait

#

I just got any

#

still works tho

ivory gulch
#

robotics comes close

#

def

neat ingot
#

Robotics is worse

#

Ive seen petraptors do better than the drone

ivory gulch
#

at least the robot can shoot from range

#

raptors will rush in and die to really anything

neat ingot
#

Tell that to the crewmember its fucking shooting to death

ivory gulch
#

if you got a big breach

ivory gulch
neat ingot
#

it will shoot someone before it kills a hostile

ivory gulch
#

maybe that person was traitor

neat ingot
#

itll kill multiple people before it kills a hostile even

neat ingot
ivory gulch
#

really!?!?!?!!?

#

you sure?

neat ingot
#

Mhmm

#

Ive only seen Defense bots in ballasts

ivory gulch
#

in my experience they don't last long enough to grow

neat ingot
#

grow?

ivory gulch
#

wait

#

they don't grow

#

to like

#

full size

neat ingot
#

they're just Petraptors

ivory gulch
#

they're just... like that?

neat ingot
#

Yes

ivory gulch
#

that's it?

#

well uhhh

#

i expected them to like

#

get better

neat ingot
#

Mhmm

#

buh

ivory gulch
#

i had 2 petraptors die to a single low HP thresher

neat ingot
#

Just this

300px-Petraptor.png
#

Just that

ivory gulch
#

my most memorable moment with them is showing off psycho clown and accidentally one-shotting like 2

slim gorge
#

I think they were like 75% worst than a regular raptor without armor or something stupid

neat ingot
#

but they can come in clutch sometimes

ivory gulch
#

in this situation it won't be the defense bot shooting teamates

#

it'll be your teamates shooting the raptor

neat ingot
#

which the defense bot can't because its just in the ballast and kills team mates

slim gorge
#

Petraptor has 100 health and

neat ingot
#

Water Attack...

slim gorge
#

Regular Mudraptor has 150 health and

image.png
ivory gulch
#

so it's 70% damage of a raptor

#

with NO armor

#

and 100HP

#

with no self-preservation in the slightest

slim gorge
#

indeed

lone hearth
neat ingot
#

This fucking idea turned into everything except it's idea from how bad it was

minor berry
deep swallow
#

but defense bots do too

#

but defense bots are vulernable to EMPS soooo

ivory gulch

the best thing it does is sabotage your ship when you throw it into junction
