Tastiest Part Of The Marine?

Alien_Bob · November 2002

<div class="IPBDescription">Are headbites better?</div> Does it make any difference where you bite a marine? Does biting his ankles do the same amount of damage as biting his head, or are headbites a lot deadlier (in the same way that headshots are normally more damaging in other games)?

In general I try to jump up at marines and bite them in the head, partly so that the last thing they see is the inside of a skulk <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'> but also because it seems to finish them off faster. Or is that just my imagination?

As a budding commander, I have a request to make of skulks everywhere.

<i>Go for the voicebox first.</i> Then the legs. Maybe then they won't all run off in random directions, then say "umn eeee ohma!" instead of requesting ammo with their menu, so not only do I have no **obscenity** clue where on the map they are, but they're getting into way more trouble than they're prepared for.

I know, I should just tell them I'm ignoring them and they're going to die if they wander off on their own, and to expect no support from me... but they won't **obscenity** SHUT UP, and they KEEP running off on their own and expecting infinite supplies to rain down on them everywhere. The stupid dumbasses. Then they <i>eject</i> me for disobeying <i>their demands.</i> When I can't even understand what they're saying half the time anyway, and they won't use the in-game tools so I can actually find them.

Worst. Part. Is. Other. Players. WORST!!

....uh... sorry, I just needed to vent that... <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'>

@alien bob: only one damage zone, it doesn't matter where you hit someone.

But it scares the **obscenity** out of them when you land on their head and start biting <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Actually, I have heard that sometimes it's hard to hit a marine who's crouching in a vent with a bite attack. Something to do with hitboxes. The secret, silly as it sounds, is to aim for the **obscenity**, because you end up hitting the hitboxes around the knees, which stick out in front.

[EDIT: Okay, okay, I didn't say the shortened for of Richard, I didn't say what you call a male chicken, all I said was the area of the human body between the legs. Since when is **obscenity** a bad word!?

Grrr... >.< Anyway, it's spelled simmilar to "crouch," and it rhymes with "scotch."

**obscenity** CENSORSHIP!! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'> ]

Actually I have had ppl screaming, "How did he kill me in one bite? I had full health!"

Now whether they were parasited and didn't realize it, I don't know. I have had the same feeling though: jumping and going for the face works faster. (Mabey there's a double-hit occuring ie. another hitbox issue?)

maybe you could of bit them twice without you knwoing, cuase i normally hold onto to bite and hope they die

Well the vent thing is a problem. I try to enforce it, but that seriously can hurt marines some times. So now on my server its just avoid marines in vents.

i still think that hit's to the back sould hurt more especially against heavy armor
