New Thing Revival IDEAS!!!

 well i had a couple of ideas, mainly for the thing because 11 marines and 1 thing is pretty op.
1.the thing has a new move were it can campflauge (in thing mode) with the terrain under it. like in the forest it if you activate it(last a couple seconds) you the thing will become greenish brown (or whatever lol) in the snow if you activate it the thing will become white`esh looking color(even the legs of the thing)  

2.The thing should be able to drain other marines oxygen lvls alot faster when around them 2+(not including the thing) because the thing will consume more oxygen then the marines (considering it has a oxygen lvl) oxygen lvls arent taking seriouse, but if you give it to the thing as a perk then will make all them group of marines split up!

3.the thing "ROAR" should be considered a move it has which allows the thing to make the marines run in uncontrollable different directions for a certain amount of miliseconds (or seconds) this way it will take more strategy for the thing to get the marines, but will make it easier for them to split up other then staying together.(also it should have a cool-down like every 15 seconds or something) and it will only affect them if the thing is in "thing form" and a certain distance.


Post your ideas!!! i know you all have some ^-^

1) No because too much effort for something practically useless with Starcraft's UI.

2) Oxygen isn't based on Thing radius because that's practically cheating. While I believe the marines need to split up more, its not gonna happen without MAJOR game changes that I don't see happening without major support from Vic & Willu

3) That basically is an ability which says "Fuck you!" to a random marine upon use and eradicates a person's skill level. If you are forced to run in random directions, there's no way to have a skill ceiling and floor.

lmao the roar would be kinda op, i was also thinking if we could get a melee weapon, like a axe but the marine would half to give up its gun, ect make the default marine gun a weapon. idk if thats possible (hell i dont even know if it is) but ik you guise are pretty smart. like the axe could deal not much as the flamethrower in terms of damage but around that area.only 2 axe per board and you can equip it with the riot shield.

To have an axe we require a modeler, animation artist and a coder with a lot of expertise in doing these kinds of things. The first two we flat out don't have the the third is wishy washy because Vic and Willu disappear at random times.

Vic, have you updated it yet?

Yes, you fuck. Let me update Dropbox.

Vicboy plz make the thing like it used to be in 2012 and completly just default the game, and i will play agian

I like the idea of an Axe being added. It stays true to the lore (I think?) and in relation to models, there are plenty of in game substitutes. You wouldn't have to make a new model.

It'd be fun to kamikaze the thing with a Melee weapon too
