<div class="IPBDescription">for aliens and marines</div>Hl2 does this very well already - metal parts on the models spark as they ricohet the bullets while soft tissues parts on the same model eat up the bullets like a sponge.

This would affect aliens the most -

Skulks - takes less damage when shot in the top (the back if a skulk could stand) and more damage in the belly - carapace upgrade could even this out a little while also giving the skulk higher armour as usual.

Fades - the claws would be completely bullet proof.

Lerks - shooting the wings could slow the lerk down.

Gorge - um i really dont know lol

Onos - getting the carapace upgrade could make the onos 90% damage proof from the front, aswell as the horns being bullet proof.

Marines - would take 15-20% more damage when attacked from behind. (as they wouldnt be able to brace themselves for the attack) unless in heavy armour. I don't believe in headshots though, as the head is equally if not more armoured as the rest of the body.

Perhaps skulks could latch on to the gun and chew to destroy it while the marine tries to shake it off - would look very cool, and could be a good way to slow down heavy trains, but destroying their weapons.

Also it would be very cool to see say biting a marine in the leg would do less damage than in the torso but it would make the marine fall over, and leaping into a marine could knock them over when using 3 chambers of celerity <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

just so many uses for physics ! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

    Maybe lerks have a secondary health, that counts the damage to the wing's tissue, allowing to completely disable their ability to fly since the tissue does not carry them any more.
    after all, flayra designated them a defensive role, and if they charge head first into the fight, it's a thing they deserve.

    Regen would double on the wings, though.

    That's the best and innovative idea I have seen on these forums in a long time.
