Onos

How about whenever an onos devours someone, it halves ( or lessens ) their movement speed? Only makes sense.. eating an entire person whole and all.

    slowing down the speed definitely is a good idea... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    but slowing it by half...that wld make onos more prone to deaths

    maybe slow it by a little instead of full speed will do

    Onos are waaay to weak already, they are already absolutely useless without celerity.


    Please stop suggesting more alien nerfs <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    -.-

    They already slow down when they digest someone. You really want them to be that slow?

    I don't know where you people get this idea of onos being weak.. It's either who's ever playing the onos are newbies or just alien biased. Also I have seen a single onos kill 3 HA with hmg's and I would never consider that "weak" ( stomp, devour, run and heal, repeat ) Considering how slow marines are a single onos can do this non stop and continue killing your entire team. Thats also without the help of any other aliens.

    "They already slow down when they digest someone. You really want them to be that slow? "

    I never noticed a difference in speed.. if it is lowered then it needs to be even lower to where you can actually tell the difference. Half is to much but I was jsut trying to make a point.

    But is enough for you to actually empty all those bullets you have in hand before it gets away, no?

    Trust me, I have killed many Onos because they alwasy focus on devouring the first player, and it's generaly not right <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    + Take someone out of the game
    + Restore health
    - Slower movement
    - Not able to devour another marine

    So lets just say that devour is one of the double-edged weapons, unlike other weapons won't necessarily affect you negatively.
