being heavily dosed on combat drugs, stims, and other syndicate medicine is one helluva thing

@@MelbertSS13 I mean yeah when your liquid is 99%drug you would expect the remainder to stay 1%

It wasn't actually 0% blood he reached- he dipped below BLOOD_VOLUME_SURVIVE, which is a value that's approximately 21.79% of BLOOD_VOLUME_NORMAL.

@@athath2010 see I'm aware 0% blood isn't the actual lethal threshold but i thought it'd be needlessly confusing to specify 21.79% in editing

That game is fucking awesome

it's probably because nuke ops are infrequent and war ops are even rarer still. For the rest of the game, combat tends to devolve into a flowchart revolving around stamina damage, comparative weapon damage and a mixture of luck, mouse clicking accucracy and time dilation.. There's no way to really RUN away from a brawl in the station (barring trips to disposals) unless someone intercedes on your behalf or the opposition simply gives up. If you have to open a door with someone on your ass, you essentially give them free damage and are even more likely to get dropped. So yes, while the correct call WOULD be to disengage and not fight warops and expect the station members to defend the disk holder, that's an edge case at best while the rest of the game teaches you do the opposite.

One time I played Hop on a no capt, low pop server with nuke ops. Ai instructed me to get disk and handtele and ran off to the teleporter to teleport to ai sat. A nukies emagged into the room as soon the teleporter is on. Ai, managed to disabled the teleporter and I stayed in ai sat for the rest of the round like a coward 🤣

Also, having rewatched the video... Melbert snuck into the left half of brig while the elite op and the nukiborg started a gun fight at the front entrance. When Melbert comes back to the brig's entrance, he catches the captain/diskholder in a very unfortunate pincer.

@@GrinchAxel That was absolutely badass.

Rest in peace, my gamer.

yes, we planned on using bioterror nades but we kinda just didn't even though we bought them

shielded is better when doing melee combat due to blocking all hits temporarily, elite is slightly stronger and fire resistant.

elite has higher average armor. shielded has the armor of a normal red hardsuit but blocks all attacks, 3 charges recharging every 20 seconds. both are fireproof and acid proof. elite is also wayyy cheaper, i'd go with elite over shielded in most cases, exception being if shielded is on discount or you're at war and have cash to spare

@@MelbertSS13 Shielded is better for people still getting the ropes of Combat, it's a bit more forgiving of mistakes and gives them time to get the hang of what they are doing, Elite is better for people used to combat and who will be not running but heavily fighting, simply put i recommended shielded for the one who will be using the disk while the rest use elite to defend them

@@SmeagleDeagle I forget, do the shields block baton effects as well?

@@athath2010 the shields iirc block all attacks toward you until it runs out

Really? I win usually a lot of fights by causing the enemy to bleed out. Unless they have an epi or a chance to suture their wounds, they are pretty much fucked if not tended to within 2 minutes. Getting a good hit on someone and then wastinf their time isna good strategy

dont get stunned if you get stunned, have something that makes you get unstunned or stun but less

The shotgun blast from the HoS hit 5 or 6 pellets point blank to my head, causing extreme blood loss

Space lube is too strong for no slips

noslips only stop slips from up to water level slipping stealth implant however is much more robust

To destroy medical equipment so they can’t drag bodies in the chaos of combat and revive people means when you kill someone they’re down for longer usually and when there is war ops engies ain’t gonna be repairing Medbay they’re usually trying to fight the Nukies

@@cadet3902 I get that, but it's less fun for players overall. Efficiency is not always good.

@@Zorro9129 True but tbh War ops rounds usually don’t last long so it’s not like you’re dead for long nukies either get disc pretty quickly or all die

science doesnt get guns because this is not para

it has a minimum timer of 90 seconds, after that timer elapses it goes boom. if you have a big red button you can instantly detonate every syndicate bomb active also desword fun

@@MelbertSS13 thanks chief.

@@petersivak4503 Also, you can detonate a C4 on a syndie bomb for maxicaps.

@@martinbridge7967 Better yet, pry the bomb core out of the bomb and just stick the c4 onto that. Or even BETTER yet (if you're splitting off from the group), buy a storage implant and put the aforementioned bomb core in that (no c4 needed). When you die, your microbomb will set it off. IIRC, the bomb core has to be in a storage implant or the like, not just in your backpack, but I could be wrong.
