Beehive

Beehives, also called Paincones are an unimplemented piece of the environment, featured in the pre-release content. They are pupa like objects, with the difference being that they are black and grow from the ground. They have a few black bugs flying around them and are stationed on tentacle like stems, which slowly move. They can be plucked off and can be carried by Slugcat. When thrown, a hive will burst out large amounts of black bugs with blinking white and red lights behind them. These bug will tether nearby creatures to walls, with their thin web-like strings. A few strings connected can be cut off by moving and jumping, but when many are connected to a creature's body, they can make it almost totally immobile. The bugs or their strings themselves are harmless, however, they can make you immobile for a short time, making you an even more vulnerable prey for predators. On the other hand, you can use these bugs to your advantage to stick other creatures to walls, either to escape them or hunt them.

Trivia

 * The bees seem to share the model of older mimic beetles and camo bugs.
 * They may be the product of the bug hive concepts.
