Fighting Boris is sort of like a nuclear first strike: while it's technically possible to win, you'd better succeed on the first try, because if you don't you won't get another. Killing him was clearly in the same list for Strevortni as fortifying the core and activating the doomsday device; players like Livrah are just _that_ dangerous.

This is why when I play AI and am acting the villain the first thing I do at the beginning of the shift is to set the genetics intercom frequency to the AI private channel on transmit only, no audio. This way it quietly rats on genetics when the machine they use shouts that the hulk mutation was discovered and I can blast it immediately. Key mutations to keep on eye on in chat for is Radiation and Strength. If you see the intercom mention those things they're getting close. -Edit: And that one guy plugging SS14 can buzz off. SS14 is lame. Pixel based movement is the worst and it lacks content.
@@TheSilvernukeNot like 14 has to catch up with 20 years of development and is constantly getting more stuff. Also what is wrong with having more flexible movement?
The crew building a second AI is what killed you. Without that you would have had more time to prepare. A second AI steals all newly made borgs, sees all your hacked apcs instantly (They where likely a ghost till 5 seconds ago and already know your malf when created and just need to look at an APC to prove it) on top of being able to shut off your turrets and apc to gimp you. Also pro tip for if they dont build a second AI, ask your mediborg if they understand basic viro, and have them put together a annoying virus and infect the crew before you go loud. Blow the chem dispensers when chemistry starts getting close to a cure as your opening act of war. Now 50% of the crew are too busy vomiting blood and stumbling in circles to attack you.
I feel like this sums up many of my antag rounds very well. Prepare for, like, an hour thinking of every way things can go wrong and then get curbstomped once you go loud thanks to some powergaming min-maxxer. Anyways, loved your video! I hope you keep making more awesome content.

Yeah. Either borg is a player good enough to circumvent borg limitations and knowing that borg role even being limited is actually insane in impact it does to the situation on station due to having no role skill restrictions or complete noob who don't know that borg role has limitations and see it as very wacky bad role. @@strevortni
Hence I love malf AIs with atmos knowledge. Plasma-trit fire every path before going loud, and every crew rushes to have safety gear first before heading to sat. Then all borgs can just camp at sat to win
Your editing is wondrous! In one video you've captured the feeling of playing SS13, encapsulated the common antagonist experience, and shown the sheer depth of the game's mechanics. I look forward to seeing whatever else you might happen to make in the future!
Some tips I picked up: - Even with barely any atmos knowledge, plasmaflood is easy. and if you really are that stupid, get an engieborg to do it for you. - Get a mediborg to do a little virology and release an annoying virus a little while before go time, this way the virus has good time to spread while you finish up, and once chemistry is close to a cure, blow the chemstations as your opening move. This virus will make the crew hopefully be too busy vomiting blood to do anything about you. - Set intercoms in areas like genetics to broadcast only on the AI private frequency, this will allow you to monitor multiple other things such as when genetics unlocks hulk genes so you know when to blow the gene machine. - Try to hide the replacement AI board so a second AI cannot be built until lateround when a new board can be made. - Keep the crew busy through any means so the powergamers have less time on their hands to actually powergame. - Shortly before going big, you can have a borg pack the armory into a crate and float it off into space covering it as a "CentCom weapon transfer order"
I also like to add a single-tile layer of highly compressed plasma-oxygen in your defense layer, with some means (usually lights) to set it off. A bit less effective on the sattelite, but at least it will probably eject whoever is breaching your core, once. And also fry anyone who came with a stock EVA suit.
Id like to add to this by saying you can very easely just delete hulk gene and strengh/stimmed so they cant remake it easily that way you can remain quiet without having to worry about hulks. Further more if they test activate hulk you now can murder them without breaking assimov since hulk is t consideres human and you can just make up a fake story about them going to harm someone bonus if you sneak in danferous genes into thier advanced mix like secretly adding fiery sweat or acid flesh
@dudupintarolas5214Deleting or messing up hullk genes if may be done covertly without a trace who did it actually seems to be better strat than outright blowing them up.
Huh never knew hulk could break reinforced walls, that seems annoying that all your prep got broke by that but still cool vid, I love watching malf ai rounds
"your work? Pointless. your borg army? Pointless. I. Am. Inevitable." - hulk miner though as others are saying, this is a great lesson to not go delta too fast and sow those seeds of destruction throughout the station before the crew has a chance to powergame and go Factorio on you. Destroy/sabotage factories = profit
It's always an opportunity to learn from your mistakes! You could keep an eye on genetics consoles, destroy comms, hack every APC you see after being revealed, slowly killing crew in many ways. Activating delta is a final step and you came to it unprepared
When I am a Malf AI, I always start my act of war by activating the panic syphon in every room for a short period, then turning them to fill with plasma in the air network. Hard to fight an AI when half the station is set ablaze.
Imagine the horror they would feel, if punching through this gauntlet will give them Starsector [REDACTED]-level core... Turrets and walls are all there but... where is the core? And unless they are big brain enough, you can hide the core in a secret room, behind an otherwise ordinary looking wall safely. Provided there is cable underneath. Go into space and you will loose power and will slowly take damage. Of course, thigs were way easier when combat borgs were around. Though even as one, usually, one of the things i do is yoink entire armory under security's noses and spare robotics computer chip by dragging a security locker with me.
To be honest being a rouge pai is quite interesting sure you dont get to do much but atleast you have freedom as long as the person who emaged you isnt dead
Doors are explodable via the your malf power, you could have blew up the hulk miner when he stood next to those doors, you can also use a different power to animate the doors into monsters that attack, you could have also had your borgs move you anywhere else but the obvious place you would normally be, even moving your core into maitenance on the sat would have delayed them a bit., you had options, you just didn't use them. Yes i know you can be tracked when doomsday is going on, but only by 2 people as there are only 2 nuke trackers, that miner wouldn't have had one.
That trick would have worked on every single other player on the server, but this particular miner is the one exception. They kill every megafauna and get the best possible armor and meds, get hulk and every other mutation from the gene nerds that make them practically invincible with the armor and on top of that also abuse virology to get self healing viruses and other things. After that they run around maints looking for antags to kill the entire round, every single round, every single day. This miner in particular is the top of the food chain when it comes to terry. Also i didnt have more explosions or points to buy more so my bad...
Yeah I always hated the hulk mutation. I think it should work kinda like Floridian man where they can bust through doors and walls and take damage. Hulk mutation should take some damage every time to their arms when they bust through something reinforced. It probably wouldn’t stop them in this case, but would help. Most AIs I’ve seen malt recently usually get robotics to build more borgs, then mess with the atmos, an engi borg makes a borgging machine and as the crew is killed off they are dragged to the machine and turned into more borgs.
since like forever, it's supposed to have the drawback of dealing damage to your arms, but you just chug some brute meds (or hell, a miner's medipen) and suddenly that drawback no longer exists
@@strevortni lol I only played in goonstation. It seemed easier than TG. I played geneticist and spent most of the round getting yelled at by people cause I could only give them lame powers.
