    Hey MC-War community. I came up with this idea with @waffleman72. So basically we came up with new equipment ideas and thought these were useful: Bouncing Betty and Nova Gas. If you don't know what these are I will explain in further reading.

    NOTE: Both of these equipment types can be bought for by credits, may be a vote reward, or may be a permanent donor item.

    NOVA GAS

    Level:     15 (Unless donated)
    Cost: 100 credits ING // Reg. Equipment price INSTORE
    Equipment type: Tactical
    Damage: Half heart damage over time (unspecified)
    Armor penetration: 3/4 Health dmg. with direct impact
    Spread: The same spread as molotov
    Delay: 5 second delay
    Deploy sound: Blaze_Hit
    Bullet speed: Same distance as molotov
    Custom feature: Very similar to molotov ONLY the player acquires nausea (A vision effect) and damage over time. The player will never be below HALF OF A HEART unless other damage is taken.

    BOUNCING BETTY

    Level:     25 (Unless donated)
    Cost: 100 Credits ING // Reg. Equipment price INSTORE
    Equipment type: Lethal
    Damage: Depends on radius between equipment and player on contant
    Armor penetration: N/A
    Spread: Same as C4
    Delay: No throwing delay, but detonation occurs 1.5 seconds after detonation
    Deploy sound: Creeper_Hiss
    Bullet speed: Placement (like c4)
    Custom feature: So basically, the bouncing betty is similiar to c4 as you place it down, and it is a lethal equipment. The way it is different is that it auto-detonates after a person walks within its radius. Radius may be (3x3x3 blocks) It acts like a landmine. This equipment has been featured in many CoD games.

    Just reply to this thread for more info, I'll provide it.
    Let me know what you guys think :>

    These are far more superior than our current donator equipment, so I feel like non-donators should not have an access to these.
    Nova has bomb seems quite annoying due to nausea, while bouncing Betty is a static land mine that is capable of killing a few players.

    I agree with this. Maybe the nausea could somehow be reduced, if not possible, maybe just foggy screen that lasts for a few seconds. The land BOMB however shouldn't be nerfed, but in fact be an exclusive donor item. Will change it, thanks.

    The names are derived from actual CoD games...

    Perhaps "Tear gas" and "land mine" would be simpler.

    Nova gas (BO1) and Bouncing Betty (BO1, BO2, MW2, MW3) should keep their names as is.

    Bouncing betty, needs an animation, it needs to bounce in the air, i think a normal land mine would be better.

    The land mine has been suggested many times and has never been accepted, disappointing.

    But I really like the gass idea works kinda like the tear gass in gta. +1

    Thanks. I really wish the land mine would pull through. It's an amazing tactic and another strategy to boost the fun of players.

    The bouncing betty and land mine seem a bit OP, for example, someone camping in a room with 2 entrances, can place bouncing betties at one of the entrances. The Nova gas would e great to pair with flamethrower as for the trolling, but it is a bit too annoying. -1 :frowning:

    I guess I wasnt specific enough: The bouncing betty isn't a one shot, and "trolling" is a gameplay style just as camping is, and because you don't like it shouldn't mean someone else can't enjoy it

    About the bouncing betty, it is complicated, because if it is a one shot, people will complain about it's over powered-ness. If it is too weak, no one will use it. And I completely agree with what you said about the "gameplay style," I am not saying I would think it's annoying (because I would be using it :v) but the community will think it's annoying and there will be more "noob" calling in chat, etc.

    Gotta agree with that one. I think the bouncing betty should damage depending on radius between the player and the detonation (as mentioned in the first post) so it can compromise.

    I like this,
    btw, an easier way to describe the Nova Gas, would be to say it gives you a poison effect for an x amount of time.
