Alien Proximity Mine.

Sooper1337

<div class="IPBDescription">Kaaa.... Boooooooom!</div>it would be awesome if aliens got something like the marines proximity mine. maybe it could look like a squishy fleshy ball. or have armored characteristed to make the look of the aliens. that when a marine gets to close it blows up throwing acid on people. ultimatly meltin some faces =D
its terrible. all i did was copy paste some images but yea. an idea of what im talkin about. it will be a semi spherical object with 3 flaps. that will be closed. and have a tentacle slithering down each one. and when it explodes. the flaps will fold open and the acid will spray out.

Why does the search function suck so much now?

I say yes!! I love gorge sporemines so why not make them officially part of the game. There could even be different types:

a) Poison - lerk spore/umbra cloud
b) Acid - lots of damage and small AOE
c) Explosive - medium/low damage and large AOE

Mabye the whole tentacle-on-mine thing could be that the tentacles are really slithered out a couple of feet in three directions and when a marine steps on it . . . well ka-booom! This would support the whole gorge being a master trap-layer idea too.

Next request: Aliens disguise as Marines on spawn and have LMGs.

I'm pretty sure the gorge is getting mines actually. He's being described as more of trickster that sets up booby traps for the marines.
