Title: Terrible Suggestions
Post by: Boba Phat on October 04, 2016, 03:24:32 PM
* Bestiality trait.  Allows colonists to get the "slept with x" mood buff with bonded animals, complete with hearts.

* Shyamalan world: Colonies over a certain number of colonists cause plants to become toxic and cause any colonist nearby to become suicidal.  On the plus side, mechanoids and insects die instantly when they touch water.  Also, the colony is actually behind a wall on a Glitterworld.

* Buildable dakimakura.  Gives mood buff, but only to male colonists with the "ugly" or "very ugly" and "hates women" traits.

* Colonists accumulate pee bottles beside their beds while they sleep, or beside production facilities while they work, and have to be carried away and buried or incinerated.

* Fedora.  Gives the "hates women" trait when worn, but gives bonus damage when using swords.

Damnit! That's now in my search history...

You're triggering flashbacks to Afghanistan. During a health-and-welfare inspection, they found a Soldier with over 20 piss bottles under his bed, and in winter, you could see where Soldiers had pushed them out of the gaps in the tents, and where they'd burst due to the temperatures.

Fuckin' Joe...

Urine can actually be used for medicine, production, and all kinds of things.

I doubt urine would be destroyed in a colony if they could help it, and knew the uses.

Explosives. We're all too familiar with that usage in this day and age.

A single-use throwing weapon called a football, it is crafted out of pigskin and when its thrown the "gunshot" is someone yelling "GO LONG" and obnoxious sports music starts playing. It does very mild damage.

* The Thing event.  One colonist has been secretly infected and taken over by an alien organism.  Each night the alien organism quietly takes over a new colonist and leaves the withered corpse of old host behind.  The only way to determine whether or not a colonist is actually the alien is to set her or him on fire.

* Bedbug event.  Every single bed on the map becomes simultaneously infected with bedbugs, giving every colonist a -20 mood debuff every night.  The only way to eliminate the infection is to simultaneously destroy all furniture and clothing on the map; any new clothing or furniture becomes infected so long as there is a single infected item anywhere on the map.

* Spontaneous combustion event.  One random colonist bursts into flames for no reason and is turned into a smudge of dirt.

* Quicktime events.  PRESS 'X' NOW TO AVOID MALARIA!

* Nude mod.

* Tactical nuclear artillery shells.  Explosion radius: 300

* Trainable pet rocks.

-Infections have an 85% of happening without a sterile room.
-If a doctor doesn't have high medical skill, treating a patient with flu/malaria/plague/muscle parasites will spread the disease to him as well.
-Full recovery from wounds takes several days to several months. Gunshots require months of consistent physical therapy (hours long, of course, and can only be given by a very skilled doctor) to recover even a fraction of original functionality.
-Anyone who has ever lost a limb will experience phantom pain. Prosthetics/bionics have a chance to increase the pain. Each year there is a minuscule chance for the pain to go away, but it's really minuscule.
-Colonists with creepy breathing, annoying voice, psychopath, or staggering ugly traits have a chance to become rapists.
-Psychopaths may go on murder sprees for no goddamn reason.
-Cannibals may go on face-eating sprees for no goddamn reason.
-Mechanoids have 4-6x increased health to better illustrate the difference between man and machine, as well as the sheer futility of your resistance.
-Colonists with persistently low mood can commit suicide. Depressive colonists have a 50% chance to immediately hang themselves if they ever reach "major break risk."
-When raiders capture a colonist and you ransom him/her back, that colonist will be missing eyes, ears, a nose, a jaw, a kidney, and a lung. Their legs will be replaced with peg legs and their arms with steel arms. It's no less than what you do to them, after all.

I apologize for the grimdarkness of these terrible suggestions.

Creepy voice should have an audible sound whenever the pawn is on the screen.  For immersion.

ejecting brass from all guns, which piles up, and must be cleaned.  Brass has a small chance to cause injurey from tripping.

Luciferium is treated like aids is IRL. If luciferium blood touches an open wound of someone without it, they are now addicted

Any crop has a chance to grow anywhere randomly, as a very small chance like raspberry bushes.

Wait a second, this is terrible suggestions, BACK ON TOPIC.

Change the charge lance of mechanoid scythers to do 20 damage, but charge you 500 silver per strike that lands

Vomiting, blood, embriotic fluid, and other sights have a small chance to cause vomiting. Enjoy spontaneous vomit parties.

Doomsday mortar shells. More expensive shells which explode with 5 x the force

Fuck, off topic.

animals may attempt to mate with colonist legs. [bugfix: Legs could become pregnant, birthing peglegs]

remove herobrine.

give genitals a health hitbox so relationships could be drastically altered. Add bionic genitals to resolve this (my manhood has been augmented, she never asked for this)

Randy random will literally go in an randomize numbers when bored. Newly crafted item? its now falling apart! 20 insect meat? its now 2000! randy strikes again!

Z levels, the z's from sleeping would actually be able to be seen from high up, as they go higher and higher in the sky.

Teeth as health hitbox. putting knocked out teeth under pillow gives 5 silver in the morning.

- Sirius Cybernetics Genuine People Personality Doors which have their own traits, can have conversations with colonists, and will stop opening if their mood drops too low.

- Turn-based ASCII curses version with all the sprites removed

- Microtransactions for in-game equipment

- Iron man version with no pause, no save file, and triple-speed locked.

The pause button has durability. When it becomes worn out a new one must be crafted out of plasteel and hyperweave and installed manually - during which time the player cannot move the screen because it would force the pawn doing the installation to chase after it.

An alpha muffalo the size of a mountain tramples your base and leaves a trail of wool and baby muffali.

Your crops are stricken with a rare blight! All of your potatoes become explosive. On top of that, they are launched in random directions like rocket propelled grenades.

This plague also affects chickens.

Okay, this wins the internet.

A names of serial killers and other vermin for colonists.
