Suggestion: Loud Ambient Noise Effects On Certain Tiles, With A Silence Proc..

[grimdraken]

Ok, think of any of the Grineer tiles with the massive cannons firing occasionally. Yeah, they actually fire, you may have missed it, they're that quiet.

 

My proposal is twofold, and thus:

 

1.  Make those damn cannons bloody excruciatingly loud.  I want it to be a tile that's tough to deal with purely because of the thunderous roar of the cannons.  You want to get in and out asap.  Not a tile to hang around in.

 

2.  Make every cannon blast co-incide with a 1 second, tile-wide, Silence proc, exactly like Banshees power.  Applied to enemies (stagger effect, immune to noise alerts for the duration) and player frames (receive a sound attenuation for the duration).

 

They don't fire all that often, so it wouldn't be a massive imposition or game breaker.

 

Instant immersion.  You're welcome.

silence proc also stun like banshee?

[RavenCorella]

The silence proc - yeah. 

But I don't want the stun... I mean, why would they hang around a cannon that stuns them whenever it fires - unprotected?

I hear what you're saying, but I made the suggestion based purely on ease of implementation.  I daresay separating out the 2 parts of Banshee's silence ability (the silence and stagger) would be more work that just having the ability cast by a point on the environment.
