Legitimate Marine Tactic

Aaron

<div class="IPBDescription">/kill yourself when low on health</div> Just wondering if anybody else does this:

When I am on the marine side and it is early in the game, and we don't have any good weapons or armor that we need to protect, if I am low on health and near base, I just /kill myself and respawn. Some people will just sit there and whine and whine and demand health, but it is wasteful (and annoying) when you can just /kill and be back with full health faster than the commander can find you and waste resources to get your health back up. It seems like a waste to me, and I imagine it could be annoying to the commander.

would it affect your teams score if you did this?

Kung_Fool

Nope, cuz marines don´t have a team score. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

NEWSFLASH - DEPRESSED MARINES COMMIT MASS SUICIDE

Preddie

maby its an idea to let it cost resources to respawn an alien. If somebody dies he is an ghost (like normal), and the commander sees that somebody can be respawned, it cost 5 resources to let him respawn, he clicks on his name and their he is. Else he would not be respawned....

Of course their are advances an disadvances on this... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Does suicidal marine flash taste the same as adrenaline pumped attacking marine flesh?

Maus

I don't do it when I'm low on health, but when I need to get back to base quickly I've killed myself to do it a few times.

Good idea unless you're at an important location. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Why suicide when you can kamakazi ?

XCan

Normally at the beginning of games when a marine asks for ammo or health I tell them (even when i'm not comm) to get themselves killed as the comm can't afford that atm. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
