Guys, guys, guys! They said the next BIG thing, so obviously, the next perk should be Giant Allied Crab. It's weapons would be different claws:

-Claw that shoots lasers
-Claw that can tear a tank apart
-Claw that can heal allies

It's advantages will include being able to eat Zeds for health, increased armor due to it's hard shell, and the ability to smash open doors.

It's disadvantages would be that it takes less healing (Healing supplies meant for humans, not crabs!), has trouble fitting through some doors, and leaves his teammates either terrified or awe-struck as he shreds Zeds with his awesome claws.


Concept art for said crab is in my signature.

NONONONO you got it all wrong. Obviously it should be a new specimen or even replacement to the Patriarch. Imagine the Giant Enemy Crab falling from the sky creating this huge shockwave and then it starts shooting lasers out of its eyes. In order to kill it youd have to shoot a rocket in its weak point - the under belly. If thats not an epic final battle I dont know what is.

No stealing this magnificent idea:

Imagine a toaster. Now imagine a toaster, but instead of the little hinges on the side are walrus heads that flash colors. Now imagine this floating, and 4 times you size. At first you wonder what to do...

If you shoot it, you will here a *ding* and then, suddenly, clones of you will pop out the top. They will flow like THE FLOOD and then surround you, kicking you in the shins repeatedly while simulatenously spamming "I need money" voice command. You retreat, and begin trying to fight back while attacking the toaster. Eventually you wear it down, until springs fly out, and then suddenly the plug-in picks up a revolver that shoots chainsaws that explode into more chainsaws. However, if you jump on top of your teammate's head, you can mob-wave all the way to the toaster, where you can unweld it. Then outcomes its final form....a multi-heading technicolor walrus with hiking boots and chainsaw flippers. And its on fire.
You then have to engage it in a staring contest, upon which you hear Harry Enfeild shout "Shut YO MOUF" at which lots of Harry-Enfield heads fly out of the monsters eyes, and begin devouring you.
And then you say the holy phrase "IS-2" upon which the Harrys reform into a midget viking named Halvdan (who is the trader (and Nim Chimpsky)) who whispers "I..................AM PHONE"

And then a skeleton pops out.

If you don't shoot at it, you must enter a dancing contest with the toaster. Only Xienen, KingShinobi, and NoGlory have ever won this, and they do indefinately. All others will be punished by having it do one of 3 things:
1)The Toaster will get in a RO clown car, and run you over. No exceptions. Your in an exploit? Wrong, it will still figure out a way. You shooting at it?....You won't for long. Because you will look into its eyes. And you will realize the toaster IS YOU
2)The Toaster divides by zero and your game crashes.
3)You and your team will all randomly explode. And the bodies wont fall, but continue flying up, up, up until the skybox turns technicolor...and suddenly your in the WestLondon map. You look around...and after a while, you spot an old man eating porrige in the Filthy Wench Inn. And then you are a baby with Masterson's head, floating in space.

I trust this will be implemented by Tommorrow.

Searching for survivors.
The crab idea is the best idea I have ever ****ing heard for this game. Timur's toasty toaster toasterizer is pretty good too. I always wondered where the hell that picture came from, now is my chance to ask. Nanostrike, where is that crab picture from? I think it is awesome and hilarious at the same time.

I'd like to see new ZEDs and some weapon changes, however this requires actual effort and thought.

In all likelyhood, the new stuff will be maps (as they don't affect anything when implemented) and DLC character skins (which are also slotted in and help them generate revenue).
