Stomp fix?

Just wondering if this is on the list of things to be fixed?

Specifically referring to how Marines can sometimes take damage from the stomp shockwave and still not be knocked over.

I get it when you see the shockwave hit them and it doesn't connect as that's a lag/hitreg issue, but when they take damage from the shockwave then it clearly connected and they should be knocked over right?

    I think there's a cooldown for being knocked down, ie., you cant be knocked down until after you get back up.
    When life gives you lemons, throw it back and demand chocolate.

    No, the devs specifically left that bug in because they don't want to fix it. They don't want to fix it to spite players like you.

    ...

    Pretty sure they're aware of it but it's not a high priority bug so I wouldn't count on it being soon. Bugs like these mostly get fixed by modders lately.

    This attitude definitely hasn't caused any problems in the past. Luckily modders are always willing to work for free. NS2+ is in pretty great shape, amirite?

    To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to play Natural Selection 2. The gameplay is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of military strategy and advanced mathematics you won't even win a single game. Theres also the game's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into the game. The maps and artwork draw heavily from Riddley Scott's Alien franchise, for instance. The players understand this stuff, they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depth of the game, to realise that it's not just great, that it also says something about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Natural Selection 2 truly ARE idiots. of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in the Marines' existential catchphrase "how do I get to be so good", which itself is a cryptic reference to the high degree of intelligence required to play the game as intended. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion when spectating a game. What fools... how I pity them. And, yes, by the way, i DO have a Fade tatoo. And no, you cannot see it. it's for the ladies' eyes only, and even then they have to demonstrate that they are within 50 hive skill points of my own (preferable lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid.
