This will be a great mod and creature addition if, and only if, there's a subtle way to tell apart the mimics from the real thing that they are attempting to mimic. Edit: I have since learned that this mod does indeed do this, and in some rather inventive ways too. For example, the words can appear differently on the door. This is a great mod.
Perhaps for the fire exit mimic, it could have one or more letters upside down or facing incorrectly. It's noticable enough to those being careful and more risky if you're on an adrenaline spike after trying to escape another monster
Its kind of a must to have a mimic enemy on a dungeon scavenging game. And i mean the vanilla enemies are weird aswell, a crawling land shark, a shade demon that makes almost no sound, minecraft sided spider, loot goblin like bugs, a jack in a box with legs, and the shining.exe, i can see a door or locker mimic.
If this kind of mimic is to be added to the game Zeekers could make it so that "FIRE EXIT" is spelled wrong (like FIER EXTI) to distinguish the real fire exit from the mimic
Or FIRE ESCAPE instead of FIRE EXIT. Maybe the text is muddled similar to how AI does it. Maybe the door is perfectly fine, but the text is in black. Just basic stuff.
@@roetemeteor yeah, something along those lines, changing the sign so that (as per all the monsters) at first you might die since you don't know about it yet but once you get used to it you can counter it
It's hard to see in the video but that is how the mod works. Apparently this fire exit is actually a bit more orange compared to the real one, which is full red.
The mod does have different ways to tell mimics apart from the real ones. As you can see in the video the door is not red, its orange. That is one of the 6 variants of mimics
@@Skylingale Well to be fair, landmines are visually distinct, make a beep noise, blink a red light, and show up on a scanner, so scanning a Fire Exit to see if it's a mimic should be acceptable with how the game already works. People would still die to the Mimics, it would just be the ones that didn't bother to scan OR people who were panicking like in a situation where something was chasing them. Also, do you know if it's JUST Fire Exits or can the Mimic take other forms?
@@LostDarkCloud I mean yeah sure but I still don't like the idea of being able to scan a mimic ngl. Agree to disagree I guess lol. Also no, they can only be Fire Exits so you don't have to worry about anything else hahah.
@@Skylingale Could you imagine... if they could be scrap? I'm not sure how that would visually look, but that would get me. I pick up an Engine and just get eaten.
what i like about lethal company is how their monsters don't need things like a jump scare other than the snare flea maybe, it works all by itself without needing to surprise the player somehow with loud sounds and fast animations i feel like this would not be fun atleast for me but dunno about others great vid anyways

@@decenthumanbeing67Instead of the color change as seen on the vid, maybe the Fire Exit having a letter or two upside down or the words being mispelled. An in-game lore reason is that the mimics are illiterate no matter how much they try to learn words

Me and my friend found a orange door then I dropped all my items because we thought it was the mimic when I opened it I jumped out of my chair, I love this mod xD kind of sad it can only be a fire exit
This idea is great, not only against newbies... but against anyone, even veterans... it generates paranoia and also... imagine that you are in a situation of maximum danger and you run in a hurry... you see a door that says "Exit" and you THINK IT IS SALVATION... only for a second later you see, in those few seconds, a monster with a vertical mouth full of teeth about to kill you... AND YOU CAN'T KNOW WHICH IT IS THE REAL EXIT DOOR.
The mod was fun but when I played it with some friends it drasticly reduced the spawn rate of monster. My guess would be that it counts as monster so usual monsters don't spawn.
It shouldn't have. The mimics spawn as the map is generated. You can however configure the amounts of mimics as well as whether you want them to be "Perfect" mimics in the mod config file.
how to know: if you hit a fire exit and hear a baby crying with a growl. its fake (dont do this 3 times or it will trigger the mimic) sometimes if you hold the exit button it says "FEED" or "DIE" for 1 frame mimic hates bad smell from the spray paint (don't do this tho) get a boombox near the fire exit and quickly find a hiding spot that the tongue of the mimic can't reach
There are three ways of telling apart the mimics. A mimic has one of these things that put it apart from a regular fire exit: It says Feed instead of Exit on the prompt or has a more orange color on either the door or the light above the door.
For those people saying "there sould be a way to tell them apart".... my brother, the door is orange. And there are also more ways to tell them apart. There are 6: 1- Orange door (As you can see in the video) 2- The door is red but the ligh above it is orange 3- When you face the door the text says "Feed: [E]" instead of "Exit: [E]" 4- Eyeball inside the light bulb of the door 5- The text "Exit: [E]" changes to "Kill: [E]" as soon as you start pressing E on the door 6- The icon of the hand changes to middle finger You can lower or increase the level of difficulty of the mod so the doors can be easier to spot.
@@ItsSilverScoutIt's so incredibly funny to me that people are treating people being color-blind as a "skill issue" or something when they literally cannot tell the difference.
As cool as this is conceptually its not really fair in game because from inside there doesn’t appear to be any way to distinguish a real from a fake, every monster in LC is designed to have some form of strategy to survive even if you encounter them but the only way to not encounter this is to be lucky (which is out of the player’s control) or not use any fire exits (against the game’s design) and if you do encounter it its just an instant kill Doesn’t seem like a mod I’d install tbh as cool as the idea is it just takes away from the fun of the game (its not like you’re dodging a monster or dreading it its just ‘ah I guess I wont use any fire exits’)
@@bclaw524Then it would've been better for him to have clarified "btw I'm colorblind so I don't know if the door is colored slightly different" instead of vaulting into an unnecessary rant.
This door is orange, fire exits are red, that's how you see that in the vid it's a mimic. It's hard to stop in the beginning though, kinda same deal with DS I guess, was hard AF to spot the subtle breathing in beginning but then you become so used to it it's obvious AF I feel like.
I know this doesn’t really cover the topic or the game itself all that much (sorry) but I just wanna say that I like those stories in games or plot I guess where it tells you about a mercenary group or I guess in this case corporation where they used to only send In like a single dude who was decently geared and trained to fend off the horrors of where they’re sent but later on realized the cost was too much and sending a squad of people in like four or six with minimum required gear and little to no training was a better option, I find it a great way to set a stage for a grim/dark universe or something like that. I sort of got this idea from the fact that he was going solo here while most people have their friends with them and I sort of dwelled on that for a bit.
I have a problem with this mod. There's no clues to tell if it's a mimic or just a regular door. I know about the lamp color, the "feed" text, middle finger instead of a regular hand and some other stuff. The problem is that NOTHING of it is there. It's always looks like a door, no blood, no orange color, just a guaranteed death in a few seconds
Dupe but it straight up just bites you instead of punching you (which is what I want to assume it does considering it knocks you to the ground after an attack)

@@AssassinationProject if they have a positive power level they will reduce the available power count which can prevent other entities from spawning
dude, the door is literally orange, how could fall for that
colorblindness exists
how to know:
if you hit a fire exit and hear a baby crying with a growl. its fake (dont do this 3 times or it will trigger the mimic)
sometimes if you hold the exit button it says "FEED" or "DIE" for 1 frame
mimic hates bad smell from the spray paint (don't do this tho)
get a boombox near the fire exit and quickly find a hiding spot that the tongue of the mimic can't reach
If I remembered carefully, wasn’t the only dead giveaway of knowing if it’s a mimic is if the exiting took slightly longer?
