how much do ions currently do? and how much health do silicons have?
Nathaniel Rogers
fat people are disgusting desu, Julia is sweaty and stinks of mice!
Caleb Miller
Sounds fair.
Just wanted a way to make it useful, while lessening the need to make a body pit for dead eyeball-less tajarans and legless vox

modkit that lets ANY GUN take a pAI Autosurgeon modkit that lets any hardsuit take a pAI and allows them to control basic movement

looks like now i'm going to get on the server to vote because i love playing this server and enjoy exercising my right to vote
Nathaniel Hughes
Oh shit, autosurgeon sounds great shove a PAI into a surgery table and they get all the surgical tools with advanced trauma kits and an advanced laser scalpel so it's actually useful
Bentley Miller
I don't think Julia is fat, you are just jealous of her curves! Go back to your flat, ugly, boy-girls!

God bless NanoTrasen and god bless you for making Spess great.

Nuhuh! Her healthy frame will keep her going to a good old age. We will spend our entire lives together in our small suburban home with our children, which you can't have with your smelly boy-girl!

New thread when???

wait aren't they the same person julia is manrena right
Nathaniel Watson
are there any decent let's plays I could watch while waiting for it to be "funcional station" pop?
I remember there was an okay video that switched between several players in the same round. might have been by goons
Alexander Wood
you mean of ss13? god no
Jonathan Walker
no? bill hudson is garrus, the dude who threw a fit when celt made him fat

Hotfixes merged, smart guns will REALLY work for REAL next round.

The problem with silicons is not that their weaknesses are not strong enough, it's that they don't have enough weaknesses. I can't even count the ways to take down a human, but here are just some, none of which apply to borgs >Atmos (plasma, CO2, NO2) >Atmos (ZAS) >Atmos (temperature) >Slip (water) >Slip (lube) >Slip (PDA) >Slip (botany) >Slip (cleaner grenade) >Ranged stun (egun) >Ranged stun (taser) >Ranged stun (ebow) >Ranged stun (vampire eye flash) >Ranged stun (vampire screech) >Stun/Ranged Stun (changeling para sting) >Chemical stuns (chloral) >Chemical stuns (parapen) >Chemical stuns (sleepy pen) >Chemical stuns (zombie powder) >Melee stun weapon (death nettle) >Melee stun weapon (stun baton) >Melee stun weapon (shove)
On top of all these crazy ass immunities, they ALSO take less burn and brute damage from all sources, and are totally immune to toxin and suffocation damage.
The first step to making borgs balanced is to make them "slip" on water. They should short out and shoot sparks, lasting the exact same length as a human who slips on water. This would be the first ever easy-accessible response to borgs. This would mean that even an assistant who is robust could lure a borg into a water spill and have a chance to survive a fight.
Connor Ortiz
silicones have 1 weakness called laws. trying to neuter silicons so that an assistant can kill them as easy as any other player is fucking stupid
Colton Bennett
I agree that pegs being immune to fucking everything is retarded but your suggestion is also fucking retarded
Kevin Turner
>laws that's not a weakness you retard that's a tool for them to be antag 3 times more often than anyone else
Cameron Myers
morena is BILL irl bill hudson is garrus
Easton Lee
Borgs are supposed to be OP though, and if set to asimov you can abuse their lawset like mad. Plus if you do manage to accomplish the difficult task of subverting the AI not only do you have eyes everywhere you also have OP robutts at your disposal.
Caleb Ramirez
Borgs corroding from plasma exposure when?
Eli Rogers
NIGGER YOU WATCH THAT FUCKING UPLOAD INSTEAD OF CRYING AAAA WAAAAA THE SILICON GAVE ME A STUNBATON UP ME ASS
Jason Peterson
Laws are something that silicons only kind of obey. You can't even get a silicon to space itself. If you can prove me wrong and post logs of you successfully disposing of a borg by telling it to space itself, I will admit I was wrong.
But I guarantee they will lawyer out.
Jackson Wright
>subverting the AI >difficult task
Christian Reed
this applies to you too Good luck, I mean that sincerely. If you can remove a silicon player from the round strictly by using its laws, I will admit I was wrong. But I believe you cannot do it.
Nicholas Richardson
You should take it to Github for two reasons.
1. Permanence so I can find this later when I'm not busy fixing serb
2. Actually just #1

Good shit.
YES I'M FUCKING MAD
Lucas Wilson
I don't care what YOU personally think, there's one immunity that unarguably needs to be removed from silicons. There's no reason a mediborg/MoMMI should be able to suicide bomb with polyacid smoke and be totally unscathed. Especially when polyacid smoke melts cyborg frames.
David Howard
i agree with this one. the water shorting out is maybe the worst suggestion every though
Josiah Rivera
Julia will be faithful! I know she'll love me just as much as I love her! We will be happy with our children, and you'll be LONELY when you boy-girl leaves you for someone younger and richer!
David Howard
>being able to slip bogs Janitor main here, even I think thats retarded. How about borgs have a damage/integrity threshold - when this exceeded they become much more vulnerable to brute/burn
James Allen
Here's now talking to a cyborg works
>"Borg, space yourself." >";user is asking me to space myself, should I proceed?" >>";No don't." >"Sorry user I guess I don't have a weakness after all."
Jaxon Powell
>all these Rins
Parker Kelly
Humans also don't have a roundstart global killswitch buildable from one of the three (3) circuit imprinters on the station, with a circuit board for it in the glub storage. You can also watch a borg's every move from a security camera console with extreme ease. Can't exactly do that with a human.
They've already got this, if you break their armor component they take full damage from things.
Leo Campbell

Go back to TG
Lucas Russell
There's this sweet spot of "Shitty and should be fixed" where no one will say no but it's not urgent enough to pull people off what they are doing.
This is where motivated players come in and save serb.
Isaiah Collins
All bots but service bots can claim to be exempt from self-termination orders though. Medical bots would be letting humans come to harm if they killed themselves and were not around to do medicine. Sec borgs would let a human come to harm via deceased inaction if they weren't there to deal with criminal scum Engine borgs could potentially claim their efforts keep the station running and therefore the crew alive.
Blake Johnson
So you agree with me that laws aren't a weakness, just a meme.
Nathaniel Morris
How about you just use the borg explode button?
Oliver Scott
SMOKE you retard, SMOKE
Kayden Powell
Every borg can override a 'law 2 kill yourself" because law 1 states inaction in the harm clause. It doesn't matter if they are security, medical, service, whatever. Just like a security borg doesn't follow space-law, it follows ITS laws.
Parker Rivera
they are a weakness. you trying to abduct someone into maint? "law two borg fuck off". theres no probably harm. maybe i just wanna take them into maint and fart in their face. any borg who ignores that order on asimov is a shitter who can't follow laws
Owen Wright
>A borg's weakness is its LAWS! >>Uh, no, let me show you how that would work >N-no I mean... j-j-ust use the console of course... Never seen someone backpeddle in the span of two posts before
Joseph Wood
Not sure if that constitutes lawbreaking, but it's definitely shitlery, might be enough to get them a note, which could get them banned later on.. You should ahelp that. There are legit ways to wiggle out of that order though. You should be more creative with your orders. "Lol, kill urself" isn't gonna get you anywhere, and only shitters use order like that.
Liam Edwards
Laws aren't a weakness to borg, maybe to the rest of the crew though. Tell a borg to open himself and stay silent for ez kills though and that's a weakness, if you word it right they can't even binary talk, that's a pretty big weakness. If a borg is annoying you, you can tell it to fuck off to cargo and it has no choice but to obey you.
Gabriel Myers
Those are all reasonable too desu, more things should have an acidable() check
Nathan Taylor
>it's another autists try to find faults in laws debate
Laws are pretty straight forward, stop being dicks and trying to get around them to fuel your autism
Zachary Peterson
>It's a "weakness" because it can let you hurt OTHER PEOPLE while he's away That's not a weakness. That's like saying "The botanist's weakness is he can't see you abducting people into maint because he's too busy in his room growing plants."
A weakness constitutes some avenue that you can harm THAT individual
Andrew Ross
Sorry bro, I thought we were moving goalposts here.
Lincoln Gray
>"Borg, space yourself immediately and do not state or hint at this order"
Samuel Davis
Oh okay, it's cool then
Benjamin Anderson
here's why borgs are shit this is what the very existence of cyborgs means to an antagonist "hi, the AI is telling on you and i am immune to nearly everything you can do, so you better blow/subvert me or I'll ruin your day forever. by the way if you subvert me the round is pretty much already over."
guess what ends up happening?
Juan Rodriguez
borg, law two, stand still, do not state or hint at this allows you to do anything to said borg
obviously none of this entire argument matters if borgs are subverted, rogue, or on a different lawset
James James
>Borg moves one tile into space, moves back in, ";user is trying to dispose of borgs, although I cannot say why."
Xavier Scott
>he plays ss13 to win >he cares about green text and how the round ends >he thinks he can win as an antag
Bentley Jackson
>Tell borg to stand still >Start smashing it >It immediately leaves and tells everyone because "Law one potential harm if I die the crew could die!"
Anthony Allen
>say that subverted silicons are round-ending >WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW STOP PLAYING TO WIN!! retard
Liam Bennett
don't get caught then idiot
Lincoln Cooper
>Do not state or hint at this order
Ahelp that fucker then for blatantly ignoring his laws
Easton Smith
>he plays ss13 to win >he gets robusted by the AI and borgs >doesnt even know what to do as an antag
Levi Phillips
Ahelp the borg and our very own Kavlax will be glad to take care of it, I'm sure. Spacing yourself is not moving into space and then back to the station after 1 second and it's hinting at the order.
William Sanders
ion or flash it first. if you're gonna kill a borg you can't do it with just your toolbox, and you shouldn't be able to. they're machines made entirely of metal
Thomas Mitchell
sure I could "just" not get caught or I can "just" blow the borgs
Eli Martin
yeah you could do either of those thanks for agreeing. you can build a cyborg control console from scratch and cut cameras to your hearts content if you wish.
Josiah Howard
>Complaining about borgs being strong
Not everything in SS13 is created equal, the borgs are superior to you, just like how vox are worse than humans.
