Suggestion Declined Suggestion: Defibrillator!?!

Hello Dylan,

Thanks for your suggestion for the TTT server. This item is quite interesting in many different ways, my concern is that it can be way too powerful. You said that it wouldn't be way too overpowered because ->

But what I can see wrong, and how traitors can take huge advantage of this weapon, is that it can affect other weapons. For example, if someone were to jihad in a room full of people, they can then later come back to life right after. This ruins a huge point for the jihad bomb as you kill yourself in return for a huge explosion, but then now it would be that you get to kill a big group of people without keeping yourself dead for the rest of the game.

Another thing that I can see unfair is that you can use it more than once. For example, if there were 4 traitors at start, each one of them can buy one at any point and use it, meaning that technically 4 more traitors would be added to the game which would make it 8 traitors as they get a second life. I know they would be already called out if they return back to life, but traitors have very strong weapons already such as the ak-47 which they can buy and kill the remaining innocents with their second life.

Not only is this item too powerful in my opinion, it ruins a part of the game itself, and it's rules. Innocents are supposed to keep themselves alive with the detectives and try to hunt down the traitors, not just keep themselves alive killing the same person again and again. Traitors shouldn't be coming back and be given a second chance, if they were already caught as a traitor and later on died, it's game over for them. Innocents then don't have to worry about this specific person anymore and can resume on finding other traitors.

If this item were to be added, I would prefer it to be for detectives. They can use it on an innocent or make it so only you can bring back other detectives (if you have buddies - 16+ player game) but I believe this is way too powerful for traitors use for multiple reasons. This is my opinion.

 

No, that's way too OP. People usually discuss the game in spectator, which is not against the rules because you're not technically in the game anymore. If one person were to find the names of all the traitors while spectating, that could lead to an unfair game and could ruin the traitors' round.

 

So from previous experience admining a TTT server, the defib is an amazing thing for traitors! It can turn the tide of the game even in only 1 T is left. However, I do understand your concern...but there are ways to make it fair. Also, I won't suggest giving Detectives a defib because "ghosting" is a problem. On the server I admined, the defib could only bring 1 person back and only can be bought once. In addition, it takes up an important spot in the player's slots and the revived person's tab box becomes red, showing that they are alive and a T.
UPDATE 1: Make sure to test it first! If you don't like it, remove it

 

Defibs are kinda pointless because if you die as a T and have already been called out you will just be KOSed again.

 

We thank you for your input for a suggestion to the TTT Server but we have decided to decline it
