1 Introduction
Weapons Balancing (by Dmitriy) is an excellent challenge, loved by players for its high difficulty challenges and outstanding weapons' performance in some challenges. However, due to the continuous improvement of players' skill and the performance gap between weapons, the gameplay of players in difficult challenges has become increasingly monotonous, and some shortcomings in the challenges have gradually emerged:
  1. Some weapons have excessively weak performance, without any chance for selection in difficult challenges.
  2. Some weapons have overly strong performance and are basically selected in high difficulty challenges, causing similar gameplays.
  3. Due to increased weapon damage and hardcore friendly-fire damage settings, players can almost kill their teammates with just one hit, coupled with fierce aliens, resulting in a extremely hard game.
  4. The responsibility of carrying ammo is mostly borne by Vegas, resulting in a poor gaming experience for Vegas.
  5. Experience issues caused by some shortcomings in game mechanics.
In order to address the above issues, I have improved Weapons Balancing, hoping that players can try more weapons and equipment and have a better gaming experience.

2 Details
2.1 Changes In Game Mechanics
  1. At the beginning of the game, marines receive a supply robot, which will carry a ammo satchel containing three ammo boxes and will follow the player. After marines issues a shortage ammo warning (which can be actively issued by entering "cl_emote 1" in the console), the ammo satchel will be transported to the marine's vicinity. The robot will pick up ammo satchel on the ground when idle.
  2. Marines will incapacitate himself instead of die directly after their health drops to 0 and can be revived by their teammates. Each marine can be revived once per round. The damage taken by marines within 1.25 seconds after being revived is reduced to 0.
  3. Unlock the class restrictions for some weapons. Please note that weapons will still be affected by marines' skill points.
  4. Any marine can hack. Please note that the file download speed will still be affected by the marines' skill points.
  5. All sentries will automatically complete the assembly process after placement, and the assembly speed is affected by the skill points of nearby marines.
    The sentries' health has been increased to 1000 and the damage to marine has been reduced to 7%.
    Dismantling the sentry can provide ammo for the sentry.
    The sentry will not block the fired grenades now.
  6. The flames causes an additional damage of 1.5% maximum health to the alien (0.1s CD, excluding the alien queen)
    Aliens become more vulnerable when frozen, and damage to them is increased by 30%.
    When an alien is electrocuted, it will take an additional 30 points of damage.
    Aliens damaged by gas grenades will enter a poisoned state and move slower.
    Damage of aliens that burn, are electrocuted, frozen, or poisoned to marines reduced to 70%。
  7. Smart bombs and hornet barrage no longer block grenades fired by grenade launchers and reduce damage to teammates.
  8. Unlock the Displacement 'Blink' Pack, with a charging time of 45 seconds.
  9. Marines regain health: 1hp/5s, but 1hp/8s in ASBI.
  10. Marines cause 200% damage to teammates in ASBI instead of 300%.

@OMAGE 该bug现已被修复。这是由于2024年8月10日的一次游戏更新所导致的bug。这个mod已经基本没有更新(我太懒了),但是如果有发现bug可以继续留言,我(大概)会进行修复。
