FTFY.

Photonic Sneeze Reaction makes me think of laser beams coming out of you when you sneeze. I want that.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

That or going off like a flashbang when you sneeze. Either would be hilarious and have good and bad points.

Are tank drones faster than the player? (very OP if so)
If not, then there's no good reason you can't break the LoS the same way it was established.
Not saying it's an easy fix, but it's easier than death.

If you see certain death, and do anything other than turn and run, then well, you shouldn't be surprised at what comes next.

If line of sight was established because of the enemy's movement, then often only the enemy will be able to immediately break line of sight, and it will shoot you instead.

Fuck it, another Tank Drone. How the hell am I supposed to survive a 120mm gun?
I haven't met one yet thankfully, but perphaps use a LAW?  They are meant specifically to kill tanks.

Hmm, fair enough Neon.
Sounds like another good reason to always carry a smoke grenade then.

Or, better yet, a mininuke. Or an ACTUAL nuke. There is no kill QUITE like overkill.

Well, the problem is that Tank Drone can literally blow your cover. The only way out I found is to activate the debug menu, because I get a message saying something like "Error: Tank generated with too much ammo" when it is generated. I can then backtrack without seeing it.

Well, the cough you manage to produce while having a cold is as loud as flashbangs, so why not sneezes? :P

Seriously, why is coughing the same volume as a flashbang?

For that matter, how... HOW do you make so much noise when clumsy? I could see it in houses where there's tons of crap to trip over. But I'm fairly certain you'd have to stomp around every empty field like Godzilla to be that noisy.

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

Took me three LAWs the last time I tried. Best to take on with a long-range rifle with AP ammo. Until then, it's usually avoid or die.

Yeah, but it's hard to outrun a 120mm shell.

By the way, why does the sheltered scenario give you 3 points? If anything, it should give you less, since it's so much easier (you start in a LMOE shelter). Is it intended as some kind of easy mode for n00b?
