Implant Side Effects

[Spee]

Because itd be a bit mroe immersive if each implant had side effects which may, or may not be desireable.


Audio Amp - Actually amplifies your audio. Locks your 2d/3d SFX at 100% for the duration the implant is on.

DLV - None.

Enhanced Targeting - Forces you to 1.5x Zoom, reducing your situational awareness, but allowing you to properly focus on your target.

Melee Booster - When active, allows your weapons to be drawn 2x as fast. (hey, strength is strength)

Personal Shield - Allies cannot use any sort of repairing tool while active. Medpacks are also disabled. (reflective of the fact that theres a barrier of energy around you)

Range Mag - none

Regen - When not active, but enabled, replaces health on a 1 health/10 seconds basis, with no stanima drain.

Second Wind - Can grant a 100% boost to stamina if that is drained first, and health is not.

SIlent Run - none

Surge - increases footspead even while not using the implant (Enabled, but not active) by a small amount

Ya sure. Ill just turn my audio down.

DLV - None.

Needs a further drowback. Like a truely limited FOV


Enhanced Targeting - Forces you to 1.5x Zoom, reducing your situational awareness, but allowing you to properly focus on your target.

If it acutally worked? Like I 100% of the time got to see thier name, life/armor? Oh and make its deployable reveling passive then.

Melee Booster - When active, allows your weapons to be drawn 2x as fast. (hey, strength is strength)

Personal Shield - Allies cannot use any sort of repairing tool while active. Medpacks are also disabled. (reflective of the fact that theres a barrier of energy around you)

Range Mag - none

Regen - When not active, but enabled, replaces health on a 1 health/10 seconds basis, with no stanima drain.

Second Wind - Can grant a 100% boost to stamina if that is drained first, and health is not.

SIlent Run - none

No beef with these

Surge - increases footspead even while not using the implant (Enabled, but not active) by a small amount

Hell no. Speed with weapon = advantage that is hard to balance.




Honestly im against all of these. Just adding constructive criticism.

i say no to the enhanced targeting it's ine the way it is. and Adv regen 1 health every 10 second, it's absolutly worthless thats over a minute for 60 health.

Infact why make the unbalenced ones have drawback but the only one that most people agree is unballenced not have any?

[Lartnev]

That's what I thought, but Spee did say side-effects, not necessarily disadvantages.

[Spee]

Feel free to toss out ideas for better "side effects" I just thought itd be a cool idea. Didnt really throw too much thought at the balance itself, so much as the concept.

second wind is the suxors

second wind is the suxors


it has the possibility to be a GREAT implant. But, in its current form, it sucks a lotta ass.

[Cauldron Borne]

2nd wind has onlt saved my ass ONCE....all the other times it drains me so fast i wind up not being able to run, and die anyway......

How about, as a side effect, Second Wind increases stamina recovery rates. For example, 2 per tick while standing, 4 per tick while crouching, as opposed to 1 and 2, respectively. Activating an implant with a constant stamina drain (everything but Targeting, Range Mag, etc) would disable this effect until the implant is deactivated.
