[idea] - Stimpacks

[Cytaur]

Right now we have medikits that are bulky and take time to heal, how about stimpacks that directly deliver healing chemicals in your bloodstream ? They would work just like psi/stamina boosters but not instant, half the speed of crahn holy heal, which is faster than TL3 heal and definately than a medikit. Downside of that, since stimpack has powerful "chemicals", you'll get drug haze/impaired walking (prevents abusing them in pvp). Perhaps if impairment isnt enough, then after using x amount of stimpacks within y time frame, person gets a strong poison counter (overdose).

If you got haze I do not understand the point of them, if it wasn't in mid-combat, you'd use spells/etc. If it was, why would you use one and heal, then risk dying even faster with haze on?

I don't understand the reason for them.

[Cytaur]

It would be faster healing than medikits, but haze is to prevent the abuse, of taking for example 20 of those and go fight.

Also make them non cloneable to give a money sink and to give more business to resser's/ CST'ers. But i think the speed you are referring to is to fast. Maybe a non capped or close to capped Blessed heal. Since they could be combined with a basic heal (minus PURE APU's).

So are you saying you would experience haze after taking more than a few, or even after taking one?

If you would experience haze after one I think they would be worthless, in my opinion.

Or for a good "description" when u take to many the Adrenalin rush is too much for your body causeing Distorted vision and lack of balance for several mins.

Good bad ugly?

I really like the idea, but not on a holy heal level. Holy heal is just way too fast, a stimpack should heal at a rate slightly lower then blessed heal. Otherwise you would have to introduce side effects after the first use to prevent inbalancing PvP and that would rob the sense of stimpacks.

[El Barto]

Its a good idea, drug haze would be okj if you took to many, but the poison effect would be ok as well, I think it should be one of the other.

[Devils Grace]

NO

and u should leave SWG thingys there
not bring them here

[[TgR]KILLER]

stimpacks aint SWG their Fallout :p

but yea.. i think with a haze after 1 they are useless..

u run around a corner.. grims shoots u.. your almost dead u dive behind the corner use a stim... grimmy comes around the corner.. u got a haze can't run away.. grim nukes ya dead lil runner...

[Devils Grace]

i dont know if they are fallout or not but i know they are SWG thingy

gg no re nib

[juvestar15]

Stimpacks are SWG.

:)

[Cytaur]

I actually was thinking about Fallout when I posted this o_O If you like SWG that much, then go play it :)

[\\Fényx//]

Fallout is about 8+ Years old now so Fallout > SWG

Fallout had stimpacks, SWG just copied that

[J. Folsom]

We should have Super Stimpacks too! Which do some damage a while after you've used them.

Then, I can finally kill Reeza by using a whole bunch of Super Stims on him and waiting an hour.
And then, while I escape Neocron (Which is about to explode due to Reeza dieing), I must battle a humongous tank with an even larger Gatling Cannon! But I'll kill him because I hack his turrets before hand, and then repeatedly shoot him in the eyes!

And before you know it, I get screens with all kinds of consequences of my actions before I did all that final stuff.

:p

Anyway, enough Fallout 2 references, it's a nice idea, though there needs to be some limiting factor on them, otherwise they'll be overpowered.

Anyway, giving them Drug Haze sunds funky enough, especially with how drug haze stacks...

[t0rqu3]

nevermind.

[TheGreatMilenko]

SC owns u all muwhahahahaha i played that thing forever

[Benjie]

Yes, but only because fallout had it.

Also I want Rad-X and Rad Away
