Wall Climbing

a8085

<div class="IPBDescription">with mines</div> I noticed that marines can now walk on mines. If placed correctly, marines can climb walls with it. You will see in <a href='http://homepage2.nifty.com/01ie009/ns/wallclimb.zip' target='_blank'>this demo</a> how marines can walk right into the back of DCD from Holo Room in ns_hera using mines. I tired it out elsewhere and found out that you can even goto the RedRoom in ns_nothing with only 3packs of mines. It doesn't look right so maybe it needs to be fixed.

We did it in the playtesting all the time, it's a known feature. I think it's still in for fun and it doesn't hurt balance too much.

I see no problem with the marines having ladders.

This feature is self balanced... just shoot the mine ladder and boom , here goes the marine team.

This is a feature that is intentional.

wow sir, three packs is hard to get out there. That means you need to send out 3 marines and have none of them die. Or you need to get one marine and spend 40 res on an armory and 3 packs. Then a single alien can blow up the bottom mine and the ladder is gone.

Its fun, and adds tatics to many maps.

It might be a feature, but its a bit stupid <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
