Feature Priority Poll: Tier 3 xenos

The Smart Gun Operator update is now done, which was the winner of the first community-wide feature priority poll on Discord.

Few things to note:

• These alternate between community-wide, and Patreon only.

• All of these will eventually be implemented (this is not a Minecraft mob vote), but the winner will be implemented first. Alongside it, the Spitter and Crusher will have their missing abilities added as well.

• The poll will run for 24 hours, after which Whisper and me will focus on implementing it.

• Its implementation should be much faster than that of the Smart Gun Operator, as we have less game-breaking bugs to focus on fixing now.

• If, for any reason, the winner of one of these kinds of polls needs to get delayed, the vote will be re-made.

• Other contributors are free to contribute any or none of these things. This is just what Whisper and me will focus on.

• Polls will typically have all marine options or all xeno options, to not force people to choose between the two sides. They will alternate as well to ensure that both stay balanced.

Boiler: Bring the Hive's ranged combat castes to their maximum potential with long range acid glob shots, allowing you to bombard and heavily damage areas after a bit of setup. Use your enhanced vision to locate targets without being seen and shot. Use your acid lance for close range defense. Use your incredibly strong acid to make short work of everything in your way.

Praetorian: A good all-round combatant with potent spit, the powerful Acid Ball for an area-of-effect attack, and good melee damage. Your acid line spray makes for good cover for a retreat, as it stuns and knocks down anyone who walks into it.

Ravager: Bring death to all that face you. Use charge to close the gap between you and a marine, and finish them off with powerful blows capable of chopping limbs clean off. Hit and run and frontal assaults are your bread and butter, get used to tanking damage and dealing it. You don't need to hide any more.
