new monster idea (original) (not seen)

[Coldflame]

i have been thinking for a while and i have come up with a new idea for a monster in the newly popular cooperative on line salvaging and survival game with a focus on proxmity chat that's called lethal company. in the game currently there are already a lot of different threats and monsters that can hunt and attack the players as they attempt to recover scrap from the abandoned facility, but i have a new idea for an additional monster to add to the current roster of enemies that are in the game, perhaps to be added in a new update that will be developed and released by the developer shortly.

my idea for the enemy is a new monster that can be added to the game known as the 'mimic'. this idea is a little strange and out-there but it would be a new type of enemy that can spawn on all the different moons and facilities in the game, relatively rare, such as the current bracken creature that can also spawn on all moons. this new creature, the 'mimic', would be able to listen to the players when they try and communicate in the tunnels using the proximity voice chat and the walkie talkie radio that they can purchase from the company. the 'mimic' creature that i am suggesting be added would be able to use the voice clips it hears from the players as they speak and record them, saving them to be used later for the second part of their ability

the second part of the ability for the 'mimic' that i think should be added to the game lethal company is that they can use the voice clips that they recorded from proximity voice chat or from the walkie talkie earlier in the same match (not from the prior rounds though as the mimic would not have been on the other moons). the voice chat they have recorded earlier would then be played back at an opportune time by the 'mimic' in an attempt to draw in remaining players after the player who's voice was recorded has been killed and is not longer able to play, as they will not be able to talk in game any more (except for in the voice chat on the spectator screen)

when the 'mimic' has used the recorded voice of the dead player to trick one of the surviving company employees to move towards them in the hope of meeting their friend (who has died) or in the hope of finding more scrap, the 'mimic' will attack by moving quickly towards the surviving company employee in an attempt to attack and kill them. they will chase them through doors and up on railings, but can not exit through the facility door or jump over long gaps as they can not jump high enough. the 'mimic' can be killed in three or four hits with the shovel melee weapon or stunned with the stun grenade or the zap gun, however the shovel will need to be purchased in advance from the company using the ship's terminal- likewise, the crew of salvagers will also need to order a stun grenade or a zap gun from the ship in advance and recover it from the courier drone in order to use it on the 'mimic', though not before listening out for the company jingle to be able to find it

i hope you guys like the idea of the 'mimic' enemy to be added to lethal company. i havent seen any ideas for a new enemy like this so i'm glad to be offering a fresh new suggestion to be considered by the developer for a possible addition in a future update, and would love to see feedback and discussion about this new idea for a creature to be added.
