Detective Upgrade Idea- Killswitch

[Raneman]

The killswitch allows for three people selected by your DNA scanner to be blown up remotely, provided you scanned THEM and they are still alive. Would force traitors to get creative in avoiding the detective, and giving the detective some more authority and making him feared again.

TROLOLOLOL WILSON. :D

Honestly, it's a stupid idea. This would basically mean that detective becomes to OP and flaregun becomes a must have. That was the serious response.

Unserious response that sums up this thread: This is the stupidest fucking idea yet on the ttt forums.

You really are trying to give axemen a run for his money aren't you?

What are you smoking? It must be good.

I have an idea for a Traitor equipment item:
The "I Win" buttion, it costs a credit and is pretty much self explanatory.

Nah, just give the traitor the ability to ban, kick and perma

Either way, a killswitch in some form would be pretty good, like some type of explosive.

How bout something like a c4 you place on another person without a timer, for the detective, that if you get word of them being a traitor and your suspicious of them before that, you place it on them and once you figure out that they are a traitor you just remotely detonate. some cons would be it only works within 1000 feet/meters of your target or it gets taken off if the person falls and is dropped on the ground near where they fell(only if they took 20+ damage) and can be shot and blown up. otherwise, it is not noticeable.

overpowered.

and no detective needs to remotly kill someone. get a gun and do it.

TTT is never going to include remote detonating people.

I lol'd when I read the above posts.

You might aswell just attach a c4 to everyone, and everyone dies on spawn?

[TheSlyder]

You guys are taking this thing to absurd heights.

Is it overpowered? Sure. But likening it to an "auto-win" button? It's like I'm talking to kindergarteners.

Consider the fact that one would have to find out who the traitor was before tagging them, then detonating them.

While I think forcing traitors to cover their tracks better is a GREAT thing, this is useless. If you know who a traitor is, call them out as detective and shoot them. It would be significantly less efficient to pretend not to know they were "it" only so you could tag them and blow them up later.

In fact, having said that, it's not even overpowered, it's just pointless, but with a little thought, it could be converted to a pretty interested Traitor weapon.

Tagging an unsuspecting innocent (Maybe with an added difficulty somehow, like having to hold the button down on them for a few seconds. Something that can prove quite difficult with most innocents) and detonating them later when they're in a cluster to take out several innocents at once? Sounds like a pretty cool weapon.

It would just need to be tested and tweaked adequately.

I don't find it overpowered- I find it underpowered.  As it is intended right now, it wouldn't be effective at killing traitors, but as a lot of rdm.  And if a traitor picked it up... well that's a lot of free kills.  I find it really pointless other than if someone wants to completely ruin a round.  And considering you'd have to blow all 3 up at the same time, even if youknew one was a traitor, well, more rdm.

On the otherhand, it's overpowered and more rdm if used late game and like 3 people are left with the detective.  You could try blowing them all up, provided they didn't shoot you while you scanned them.

I don't see this working well, in other words.

Can we have this locked? Its a fail idea we get it.

This thread was a great laugh, thanks guys!
