New Item (Tool): Paper Bag

[iProbie]

Introducing a new item for humans to buy from the Arsenal Crate: The Paper Bag!

 

Paper Bag is an item that goes under the Tools tab and would cost 40 points to purchase (32 with the Intermission 20% discount). The price can be adjusted if deemed too powerful or weaksauce. Buying this item would grant the Arsenal Crate owner 3 points (2 with the Intermission discount) thanks to the 7% comission rate.

 

What the Paper Bag does is simple:

It prevents confusion/drunk/drug effect that you get when a Poison Headcrab spits on your face. It does not prevent the damage you take from the Poison spitballs, but stops the familiar confusion effect from kicking in.

It also makes you fashionable and hides any ugliness or acne you might have.

 

Once bought, the Paper Bag is not resellable and can't be dropped. Humans will always have the paper bag on all the time. Humans who died wearing Paper Bags won't drop them either and instead rise as a Fresh Dead with a Paper Bag around its head (does not apply to respawns).

 

Now, what say you??

Not only is this idea absolutely hilarious since the image really sells it, it's also very original. I like this. ALOT.

 

I always wanted my own paper bag to sit on my head

I like it.

Mainly this part

[Old Bill]

i don't like it ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) (just being rude)

[Papa John]

I like the thought behind it, but no we're not going to have players run around with paper bags on their heads. I could see it working out as a perk.

[Manchu_OPFOR]

Sounds great, but any downfalls on this purchase? like Tunneled vision in exchange from immune to dizziness

[FoxHound]

That would be a great idea if this was to turn into an item. It makes it to where you have to give up something for this.

 

I think costing 40 points is downfall enough

[iProbie]

Alternatively, if running around with paper bags ruin the aesthetics of HL2 or CS:S models,

The item can be turned into a one-time injection syringe that last the whole map.

 

Seeing kids in ZS inject themselves with a war-torn syringe out of rusty wooden crates is a wonderful sight to have.

 

While it doesn't make sense that an injection would stop the dizziness but not the damage, it has to be this way; otherwise Vaccination trait would be less useful. Besides, not a lot of things in ZS makes sense.

Now I don't have to spray when I get hit in the fucking head. Awesome, great idea would love to see this on the server. Could make HG money too, if we limited that perk to gold+ or something idk

[Dukakis]

i like the idea of a paper bag of the player's head. I think we should have the option of purchasing it from an arsenal crate but some want it to be perk. Well whichever the server finds better, then i'll go with that idea.
