Invicible Marine Bug

Ravlen

<div class="IPBDescription">Hadn't seen this one before</div> Probably has been mentioned but I didn'T see it, but just now we cleaned out the marines bad, and one was left, standing in his spawn. All the skulks rushed him, and could NOT kill him. He was dancing around, about 5 skulks chomping him like mad, and nothing.

It was only after the match that I realised it was turrets that got us, not him. He was dancing with a knife out... Didn't kill us (but was making hte knife sound I think, not 100% sure).

Anyways, didn't look like he could attack, but was a real big distraction.... especially since all marines look alike!

This can happen to Aliens too, other then being quite comical, its not much more. Its like being in observer mode, just you cant fly and your visible to everyone.

I've seen this, too, except it wasn't really a marine running around, it was an observer. Somehow he just appeared as a marine, which was a huge pain to the aliens. Some clan was exploiting that bug in a game I was playing last night, a couple of them were in observer mode and moving with their marine teammates, so we'd see three marines round a corner, but only one of them would be real, and nobody could tell which. They also scouted out our hives while in observer mode, the jerks.

yeah, I've seen invincible alien gestation chambers running around the map. Very annoying.

LMAO...now that would be funny. What would be annoying is if he could shoot back. This is just comical.

That'd be hilarious...but it needs to be fixed. Good job reporting it.

The worst was when this one observer (a "skulk") ran around with a group of 2 other skulks. They bit the entire marine team to death again and again, because we'd be wasting most of our firepower on an observer, while the real skulks killed us.

Very lame exploit.

I played the role of "invincible marine" once. I joined a game as marine at nancy, noticed our spawns and cc were gone and that we'd lose in a minute so I typed "readyroom" in the console only to spawn, without weapon, in our base. Four blabbers and a skulk threw themselves at me and I just stood there jumping about until marines lost the game, 30 seconds later.

I remember thinking "Guess I'll read about that one on the forums" <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

This is known as the readyroom bug and it's known.
