    Its a simple idea to introduce a new prop that will have a lot of hp and will cost a lot of money kinda like the predator missle but as a prop.
    You can make it single use with no option to reuse it and make it so that golden gun doesn't damage it or does way less damage.
    I hadn't really figured it out, just throwing it out there to see what people think.

    I would change it so that theres a cooldown everytime you use it because it can be abused every round, but seems like a kewl idea :D

    Instead of the cooldown it will cost a lot of money for example 30k just like the predator missle thus preventing it from being bought and used all the time.

    I like this idea, it would bring something new, I was thinking of adding the blue garbage bin it’s giant, but it would have similar health to the 1 ton block, and it would be similar to the locker you’d have to figure an way to keep it a float.

    It's a nice idea, and has been seen suggested numerous times, but it'd be hard to find a balance of it being usable, but also not overpowered.

    The suggestion of the golden gun doing a lower % of damage could be a way to make this usable, however I'm not sure how possible/easy that is currently.

    As an addition to this, have you come across a model on the workshop that could be used for such a prop? It'd need to be a pretty bulky prop, while also being small enough to be reasonable when building, just like the 1 ton prop.

    It will be overpowred, that is the point. It should be more of a luxury prop then a utility prop. Think of it as the predator missle. It is overpowered but its doesn't get abused because it costs 35k.
    I personally think that it should be a good floating prop, and have 4000-5000 hp and cost 30-35k.

    While it may seem like a good idea on paper, I don't think we should add more props with a mass sum of health, especially at such a big of a range because of the reasons @Viral mentioned.

    I do understand your analogy towards the predator missile but I personally think both of them doesn't really match up. It's already an issue in addition where players carelessly buy props without considering the prices which isn't really making our new player situation any better, so I would like to avoid having costly props as much as possible

    But regardless I'll gaze over this idea and consider some possible options, and please do make some prop suggestions whether it'd be on this or any other thread and I'll definitely take a look at it

    Why not... maybe like a ship? A titanic which is not that big but enough space to walk on it?
