Semtex Explosives
Before I say anything else: NO THIS IS NOT SEMTEX GRENADES LIKE IN COD
Now.
Semtex explosives will be an item, wich in case of playing on Black List, will spawn you with a Semtex charge, rather than a C4 charge. If you toss the bomb, it will stay Semtex. If you pick up a C4, it won't become Semtex.
- Semtex will function exactly like C4 exept that: It will be longer to plant/defuse. Something like 5 seconds longer.
- Semtex will have a shorter fuse, meaning it will explose faster. 10 seconds faster.
BL advantages with Semtex vs C4:
- Will allow shorter timed defences of C4.
BL disadvantages with Semtex vs C4:
- You'll need more organised cover to plant it.
GR advantages vs Semtex:
- You'll have more time to prevent the bomb planting.
- You will gain more time if you disrupt the bomb planting.
GR disatvantages vs Semtex:
- You'll have to defuse slightly longer ( + 2 seconds)
- You'll have to eliminate BL quickly if bomb has been planted, since the fuse will be fast.

You can't plant it on people. But I guess it shall be sticky too (Like setting it to walls/objects instead of outright tossing it on the floor).Just like with the C-5 out of Project Blackout, except with a semtex explosive that can stick to stuff and detonate on someone.... +10 Unless I am talking about the wrong sticky!

stick it on people so they can do just as the dum.ba.ss in that CA animation, de_dust 2 :] -
It doesn't. BL needs to take more time to plant, meaning staying longer without a weapon and needing cover. BL also runs the risk of losing time if they are shot. Besides, while BL needs 5 more seconds to plant, GR will need only 3 more seconds to defuse, defusing 2 seconds faster than BL planted so to balance it out a little (since the bomb will explode faster).ChocDrizzle wrote: »it loooks cool, but I think it's kinda imbalanced, because BL clearly has the advantage. -
The only problem I find with such is that GR would also receive a defusing penalty of that +2 seconds. Its already a balanced change that BL get longer plant = quicker explosion.
C4 Doesn't take too long to explode normally, and penalizing GR for it means they hardly have any time to deal with enemies and defusing fairly in comparison. -

Make the item ZP so its not accessible to everyone. Or better yet, make it BP so only those that actually get Zp without using free methods are the only ones that get it.
Maybe there could be another item which could counter this addition to BL. Maybe a "Extra Fast" Defuse which costs Zp.
