I think the current failsafes haven't reached their current intentions just yet, they are a great help but still need a bit more to go to be truly useful, I would also like to see more player customization involved in the content updates.

[DerMax]

Yeah, failsafe for 100% reduction, you have my vote.

Yes Failsafe has not yet reached its full potential. I'm with Max, 100% reduction please.

it would be logical that  failsafe  reduced damage from all explosives,  if it blocks 90% of yours, why not 90% from enemy_ whats the technology behind it_
This would also buff sustain weapons, plus people that want higher TTK would be happy,  a win win situation.
Such a nobrainer, cmon adhesive, fix pls

Needs at least 200% self damage reduction before it'll be even remotely useful.

[user_default]

And add a special bonus when used with a scout.

This was my thinking one day on the toilet, it really made me question and the solution I came up with twas that each company was using a separate type of checmical weaponry that they had devised defenses against. The buff would definitely fix many holes in adhesives story.

First of all Fuel Converter should be integrated into Failsafe. I think it's an impertinence that we have to use two slots of our precious internals just to get a mechanic that should be baseline anyway. Further more, Failsafe should lower all self-inflicted damage by 100% and add 100% of your self-inflicted damage to the damage done to your opponent. Let's make it 90% so it doesn't become overpowered.

Also, Failsafe should be renamed into "Lolsafe".

Lolsafe - Let's hug it out!

Guys, please stop trolling, I bet the devs already copied some ideas out of this thread to their flip chart in their conference room.

[nepacaka]

i want buff failsafe to 130%, that-be when you shot under you feet, you will not only avoid damage by 100%, but still added 30% damage to your current HP, like a self-heal. I'm sure it would have a positive impact on the current game mechanics!
And I do not want to hear that I'm wrong, it's a really great idea that should be implemented in the future patch!

[Lucier]

In all seriousness though, I think a 100% failsafe would be permissible if the cost were high, like if it cost 5 or 6 internal slots, or if it had some other major drawback. They could call it "The Hugsafe."

[craftydus]

Double the damage and efficacy of every weapon, item, and internal. Remove turn cap. Profit.
Dead serious.

[nepacaka]

really, guys, do not you know that only people with a mustache on avatar have the right to trolling failsafe_

Its hard to tell through the internet, but Exeon and many others in this thread are being sarcastic.

I was told by a very prestigious player, failsafe was a crutch and I wouldn't be considered skilled until I could play without it.  I then proceeded to face hug people like a Sir with no failsafe_{​ on a SA Hawkins SS huehueheuheuehuehuehue, and got top score.}

Failsafe/Converter was obviously put in the game to balance out the stupid fast Vanguards zipping around the map in Go-Kart of doom mode.  For ceral, try getting behind one of those fuzzy bunnies, it's like a dog chasing it's tail.  And Raiders, God, I hate raiders, always coming at you full Hodor with Blitz and shooting their MIRV that I usually dodge because the Radar blips tells me when he's coming for fast and dry love, making me use all my fuel for a ground dodge, fuzzy bunny Raiders....

They should really just remove Raider from the game, they actually make Scouts have to work a bit to noob farm.
