Dieing

DoADrunkMonkey

<div class="IPBDescription">need not be in vain</div> i seen around on like that siege map that skulks do xenocide and hold down on attack button, thus leaveing them dead untill button is realeased.
one person goes gorge and gets all the res because u don`t get res when ur dead, next res towers up real fast <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->


however, ever just tryed this is a non **** around map, would it be worth it? if u have around 7 players, 6 type kill in console and one gorgies and can get a res tower up way faster than usual.
but is it too risky leaving the hive so open for attack? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

youd die before you could even say "wow im dead"

Ziggy, your fallout-based sig image rocks.

It sure does, the artwork forum here kicks ****.

doa.. the fact is if you all killed yourself at the same time, this gives A: the marines a chance to mass expand as they can see you wont be attacking them, B: a chance for marine lockdown on your hive, and C: The fact you only have one hive and extremely slow respawn rates when multiple people are dead giving you a HUGE disadvantage for i would guess.. 45 seconds to a minute

unfortunatly you have higlighted the cons of this.

the pro is gorge can get 2nd res up quicklly, mabye just everyone doing mass suicide at ounce would be enough then start the offence.

We already have an early-game mass-suicide tactic.

It's called the "skulk rush."

I'm just saying... this would only work in pubs.. because if any clan match saw the other team all die at once.. they would all rush you and proabably get into your hive with only 1-3 spawned

That would be a feat to try to convince all aliens to committ suicide on a pub, it's tough enough trying to get a group of 3 skulks to attack at the same time. The entire team 'doing a Jonestown' would be impossible....
