    If you've ever played Hat Fortress 2 before, you know of the awful thing that is the Dead Ringer.
    I think it could be implemented as a Traitor Weapon.

    I know this has ways to get around it like Innocents getting their hands on Dead Ringers, but I think it would make good oppertunities for the T's. For example, Traitor 1 buys a Dead Ringer, gets Traitor 2 to kill him, then traitor 2 is "proven," thus giving Traitors an inside man.

    Thank you for reading and I hope for constructive criticism.

    Actually, this has been suggested as a death faker. Also, this does not fit at TTT at all and can also create some controversial moments. Here's an example:
    X kills Y. Y was identified as a traitor. Y had a Dead Ringer active when he died.
    X leaves the place and Y can't find X anymone. X says he's proven, then Z finds Y wandering about. Z can't kill Y because that would be killing on suspicion.

    This has a shit fest written all over it. I'd leave "crossovers" like this out of TTT. If you die, you die. Get better so a Death faker or Dead Ringer isn't required.

  4. How would that be killing on suspicion? The dude was found dead so I'd fucking kill a guy that was back from the dead, if everyone knew the dead ringer was a possibility then any letter of the alphabet can kill Y.

    It would be killing on suspicion because there's no way to know that Y has a Dead Ringer, unless someone saw him reviving.
    Then X wouldn't be proven, but could kill Y again, who would be able to Dead Ringer like the first time.
     
  6. So if you kill and ID a dead person, and then see the SAME person walking around, you can't kill him? Even though it's been established that dead ringing is a possiblity and is a T weapon, you can't kill him because coming back to life by the only T wep available isn't enough to kill someone...

    This is probably not going to be added, so let's just stop here.

    It needs a single use and can only be bought once and costs 4 credits
    Because feigning a death
    is OP oh, you also need a teleporter to escape.

  9. -1. This is such a bad idea, we should implement the death faker instead.
