Retaliate TK

Just had an idea. What if attacking a player would allow the player to temporarily gain 200% bonus damage to the attacking marine?

Conditions are:
You haven't attacked anyone else.
You can do this only once a round.

no

That would certainly scare anyone from tk-ing! hahahaha! maybe 100% though?

100% would be the same amount of damage that you deal anyways. Because 100% of 100% is 100%. 200% is 2x, which is what I think you were trying to say XD

IDT it would scare anybody from Anti-Tking though. I'd say, 90% of the time I get shot first before I retaliate. You have a bunch of cadets, randomly firing, and then you get the SGT or MAJ or COL who is relentless in their pursuit to shove a gun down their face. I think it'll do more harm than good for getting new players. Also, the best way to kill marines is with grenades. IDK many who are successfully able to shoot a marine to death, even cadets.

I realize that terry is right. If you say bonus damage, it's an addition to the total damage. 300% damage modifier is scary as fuck.

Tell me though, does the revive system work? Like do people actually revive? Does it prevent TK from pissing people off?

The revive system helps the situation but it in no way completely stops TKing. I would give it around a 50% success rate in my own personal experience for stopping TKing. It's either your with a group of people and you get TK'd and they revive or you are by yourself/with one other guy (excluding the TKer) and you don't get revived. Hell even sometimes in the big groups you still don't get revived. So I think something like this would go along with helping to prevent TKing but like the revive system, still won't completely end it.

Funny that Proteo says no to this given the fact that I have seen him TK on multiple occasions.

just my 2 cents.
this is going to lead to a lot of additional shit talk-antagonizing-hurrassment. anything to get them to shoot you first so you can completely rekt them with the damage buff.

if there are 2 marines and i shoot one and his other buddy shoots me. if its 3x damage won't i kill his buddy before they kill me?

a lot of low ranks like to "poke" its something us TKers don't do. could possibly do more damage then good.

The Revive system is working.

You saw me TK...like when I was the thing? XD
IDT I've ever played a game with you where I wasn't. I did call you out a couple days ago though, so if you're still upset about that then by all means. I blocked your mic so we shouldnt have the problem of your 12 year old voice pissing me the fuck off.

Also, Reefer's point is what I was trying to make, although not as tactfully. A lot of lower ranks like to "poke" or do 2 damage. If I get that bonus, imma fuck some shit up. Also, it could eventually be used as another discerning factor for who is the thing and who is not. Depending on if you give marines the bonus when the Thing player attacks as a marine. That being said, if you did, I'd be pissed the fuck off if a marine had 2x damage just because I was trying to be deceptive.

Phantom summed it up pretty well. There will ALWAYS be tkers, but the revive system is much better than no system at all.

LOL good one. I distinctly remember you TKing me multiple games in a row. I think it was Bagiou where we were playing on and the game had not been started for more then 20 minutes when you came up to me and stated something like: "I know who you are." And the preceded to nade+shoot me the moment afterwards. But meh... I MUST have just been hallucinating all that.

Also, I don't even own a damn mic so you should probably think before you fucking speak next time. Don't throw retarded accusations around if you can't even keep track of who is who is online.

That all said Proteo does make a good point later on. If this were to be implemented maybe make it so the buff only kicks in after 10-15 points of damage is taken by the 'assaulted' marine?
