Stupidest Players Yet?

<div class="IPBDescription">Gorges, Gorges everywhere!</div> I just got out of a game on a 1.04Beta server

4 Gorges on our team at a time, Gorges building Offense chambers by the bunches walling off areas instead of making them next to a RT that is hmmm, maybe 4 meters around the corner?!?!

here's a quote: "Why make a 3rd Hive, we're winning anyway..." - One of the multitude of gorges on our team

guh, why people, why?

    I'm pretty damn sure stupidest isn't a word.

    Oh yea, beginning of the game theres 4 gorges.
    Me and my friend said, why are there 4 gorges?
    And one said "so we can build faster."
    We promptly left that server.
    Then theres the game were being mauled and theres again 1 hive and 4 gorges. and only like 2 res nodes capped. And they keep begging for backup to watch them to built off towers near res towers.
    I felt good when the marines sieged it and he blew up.

    Well, if some "lamers" join the server... its easy to screw up marines as commander, so they evolve into gorg just to make it harder for aliens, i think thats the whole reason why they do it. There should be a limit for gorges, or a server plugin. Its very common 'problem'.

    people that evolve in gorge, and after that attack, THATS anoying! just let the "profs" be the gorges and the n00bs be the skulks and attack.

    Gorge that attacks ownz0rz! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> . Just think when a Gorge rush and a jerk built a movement chamber instead of a def chamber and the Gorge kills the whole team! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> . That I'd like to see... and I agree with... was it Nupi...? Yea it was Nupi... I've played with a whole team full of Gorge's and I was the only Fade on my team, I attacked their base with adrenaline and regeneration, as soon as they tried to move out I killed them then ran away to heal. And I actually lead the Aliens to victory! Many Gorge's zux0rz but it's a part of the game, same thing with commander lamers... I just left from a server where a comm first played good but then he recycled everything <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> . Lamers... I hate 'em... BTW: If they evolve to Gorge's and then attack, you don't have to worry they'll go Gorge again in the near future. <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::sentry::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/turret.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='turret.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Heh i remember a game where my team had all 3 hives and we had all areas o chambered with d chambers cept for seige range around their base.

    all upgrades and stuff so what did we do? all but 2 people went gorge those 2 went Onos. we all charges into their base and started building o chambers after the onos killed the seige!

    with some people throwing babblers and webbing all over lol it was a blast. eventually had 6 o chambers up in their base just causing havoc with babblers and webs and heal spray flying.

    I actually heard a guy saying that he evolved into a gorge so he could use a ranged attack. That was rather silly....

    if the marines can eject their comm, the aliens should be able to vote a gorge to permanent skulk (at least for the duration of the map)

    Heh, played a game the other night vs, a noob team of marines, where we <b>ALL</b> went gorge at the end, and babblered them to death. It was quite fun actually..


    but seriously, the only thing more annoying then noob gorge's, is noob skulks who say, "when i get 33, ill make you a rt, then go back skulk"..

    <i>FFS</i> I get all your extra res when you are full, which works out to be more then 1 additional, or even 2 additional RT's gives me when you are not full on res..

    Except it's just 13 resources to do that. Which is something like a minute to earn back. (Doesn't a node put out resources at 1 every 5 sec?), then everything is extra resources for the team.

    In certain games there are places that the 1st gorge just doesnt have time to get to yet. Another gorge capping a couple of res easily earns back the 13 gorge evolution res that are expended in certain situations.

    well, you guys havent seen the bottom of the barrel yet. ive been in a game where there are 4-5 gorges, 2-3 of them are IDLING !!(ie just standing there) at least your gorges did something!

    was playing a game, a few days ago. A guy went gorge, then went AFK. Came back when he had full res (a good ten mins into the game) then demanded we clear out a hive for him. Pffft, some people. Only thing worse is one who goes gorge when theres already one, doesnt build anything, saves all res for hive, and demands the other gorge build res, defense and everything while he sits his fat arse down and does absolutely nothing, I find it especially funny when he dies, (Usually I guard him then run off soon as I hear a marine) I bloody hate them type of gorges (Id rather 1 gorge, and go cap res, so as he has 3 (plus original one) he saves for hive) it takes about the same time for 2 gorges to do this (maybe more as one is building, but splitting up his res so he cant build as fast) if someone can prove to me that it works faster this way, I just might condone this behaviour. but having one gorge do nothing for a game and rely on antoher to do all the work, is stupid in my book.

    True Story.

    I was playing last night, on a team with two gorges. NSPlayer, and a his brother, NSPlayer(1). So we (the skulks) are off fighting the marines while the two gorges spit at each other. We keep asking them to build DCs so we can get carapace. Finally, one of the gorges says "DUDE I'VE BUILT 12 STFU!" So I run over to where the gorges are, and what do I find?

    A dozen, droopy, sad DCs. Evidently, they had <i>placed</i> them, but not <i>built</i> them.

    Explain to me what you <b>need</b> the extra res for pre hive #2??? As long as I have 2, I am happy when I am a skulk.


    I also believe your math skills need some work, 13 to go gorge, and 22 to make a RT=35 res, not "just 13".

    The point is, that 1 every 5 seconds, is much less then the 7 every 5 seconds you get as gorge with 5 skulks that are full.. When the skulks are full, you get enough for a hive every minute when the skulks are full. That is much better then getting that additional 1 res point every 5 seconds, don't you think?

    Had a game last night where we all went gorge at the three hive stage. 'Twas much fun <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->. The comm ejected himself, and there was a mad chase after him, 5 gorges heal spraying him to death <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    a pack of gorges is almost invincible in early game. i found out during the following game:

    We had a 6 vs 6 on ns_bast.
    skulk: "whos gorge?"
    me: "i am"
    *goes gorge, and noticed another player started gestating as well*
    me: "we need only 1 gorge, go skulk!"
    *another 2 players evolve gorge*
    me: "WTF! ok were doomed"
    some gorge: "4 gorges kick ****, we can build more"
    *all gorges wander off to all parts of the map and most get killed*
    *We get our **** kicked by the marines*

    next round someone sais "lets do a gorge rush"
    me: "ok, cant hurt to try. everyone use heal spray on enemy and eachother. stick together!"
    *we assembled at the hive (refinery) where we build 3 movement to get adrenalin. 5 gorges proceeded to feedwater where some marines had built a phase gate and tf. We heal sprayed them to death which went suprisingly easy. after securing feedwater we wandered randomly across the map building RTs and OCs wherever it was needed. any marine base was easily overrun by health spray spamming gorges. no gorge of our team died in early-mid game because you were constantly healed.
    We put up 3 hives with ease and proceeded to their main base. We still had to use an onos to get rid of the well guarded siege guns. after that the onos went back to gorge and we all strolled into their base spamming babblers, OCs and heal spray.

    One of the most fun games i ever played

    I played a game a while ago where my team consisted of myself as a skulk and *seven* gorges, who were all newbies and thought they were helping by being able to build lots of stuff quickly. They wouldn't listen when I told them it would take *longer* to build as the resources were being spread among them all.

    Yeah, we lost. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    a couple days ago as alien, on eclipse we had a 15 player gorge rush. We had totally destroyed their base and we all throught we had won. Then we came back to the hive to find 5 marines knifing it. We lost that game <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
  • taboofirestaboofires Join Date: 2002-11-24 Member: 9853Members
    That's why maps with hives that are out of knifing range are better balanced. The game can be over very quickly otherwise.

    fortunately we won't need to worry about multiple gorge problems anyone... <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->Alien resource model changes to speed up the early game and allow multiple gorges to be viable<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
