Hey guys, just wondering what's up with me not having shadow badge marine taunt!

As you can see, I redeemed all of those things. Anyone know why I don't hear a special taunt when I spam taunt button?

Thanks!

Edit: Video of me spamming taunt to show you. Some female taunt spamming too, not sure about those.

    The marine taunt is kill em all its the only way to be sure or something like that and just the female marine that can say it. And I think anyone can use it badge or not so. . . I dont know what is going on. :P

    There are around 15 taunts player in a random order. It's very rare for it to play that one. It needs to be changed IMO to be a lot more common and not play the same taunt twice

    I haven't ever heard it (I have the shadow pack). Has it actually been implemented? I use the female marine model and taunt quite a bit.

    This. It's "working as intended," but the current design treats the special taunt with the same weight as any other. The female marine has a lot of taunts compared to the male marine, and like Samus noted there's nothing stopping the game from playing the same taunt multiple times without moving on to something else.

    So, only female can say it, is that correct? Time to switch to female and test!

    Pretty sure I still have never heard my character say that... maybe I need to start taunting more? *scratches head*

    After hitting the taunt key for 2min straight, I heard it once.
    [Female marine]

    If I only hit the taunt key once or twice during regular play, I never get to hear it.
    Which means that the taunt practically does not exist.

    I don't understand what half the female marine taunts are on about, and it's a shame they have all the standard male marine phrases anyway as they sound kind of out of place in the female marine recordings.

    "smash 'em crash 'em make 'em write back cheques" - Is that a reference to a movie or something? It doesn't really make sense

    "Chuck you, farley" - ONLY just understood this one now I've written it out :P

    The classic "my shrink says i need an outlet for my aggression" is weirdly paced in the female version and doesn't sound right

    Ah, so it's a reference to Flayra?

    I've had this increased from 3% , to 8% chance of playing.

    @SamusDroid
    How? Do we need a mod for that? Will it be included in 263?
