Where Are The Blood Curdling Screams?

Imagine...

You and your marine buddy are walking down a dark coridoor. You get to a exit to a large room, you pull the short straw and go into the room first. You cautiously enter the room, checking the walls and ceiling for any unwanted guests. Suddenly, behind you, you hear the sound of a Skulk leaping and your buddy screaming. "<b><i>HAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUGHH~!!!!</b></i>" You've been flanked! Before you know what happened, your wating in line to respawn. Might as well, you'll have to go change your underwear anyway.

    hehe I did that once. Was a cloaked skulk hanging out in the corner of... um... ventilation 3c? Is that the large room with the platform with no ladder and two tunnels leading out of the water below, with the hive in the corner of the room, a (red lit) tunnel up above and across?

    Anyway, the marines had finally broken through my offense/defense towers lining the corridor and halfway down the ramp using the almighty (and completely undefendable, especially with no friendly fire) Grenade Spam.

    So I'm cloaked, and they're starting to build turret stuff, equipment stuff, etc. I see two or three marines milling about.

    I walk down the wall, creeping slowly... only one marine in sight.

    I LEAP!

    <i><chomp chomp></i>

    one dead marine.

    I evaporate, back into the corner, invisible.

    A second marine rounds the corner and sees the dead man. Looks around. Pauses. Looks around again. Starts to repair or build something.

    I LEAP!

    <i><chomp.... LAG SPIKE></i>

    one dead skulk

    DOH!

    anyway, screams would be great

    Oh. My. God.

    Blood curdling screams were a topic of discussion back -before- I joined NS. Year+ ago. Most people liked the idea, and we ended up discussing how biting marines head's would prevent the scream.

    I'm not sure Flayra will ever put them in, due to them being a bit close to 'gore'... but I hope they do go in.

    They may not be built into the game, but have you ever listened to voicecom when an Onos shows up? Or when someone's talking and a Skulk drops on their head? There's your blood curdling scream.

    lol... Yeah. I even heard someone say they needed to make a yellow puddlesplash spray just to mark every place they got freaked out.
