Every time I gorg somewhere that isn't dead-bang on the ground, I get stuck!
To play Kharaa efficiently, one needs to be sneaky. But, anytime I attempt to do something different with the gorg I get ###### stuck..
It's such a nausiance and I believe I know a good way around it;
Gorgie Bounce!
Gorgie Bounce is the new and improved jump ability for gorgs. Hold down space bar to get energy, let go and gorge goes up way high!!
It would make gorging a real art, when you couple that with slide..

btw, if you get stuck in certain places in a way that you cannot even jump anymore, try placing a hydra right below you:
while it grows, it has a good chance of lifting you out of your position. this has saved me several times. while it costs 10 res (possibly +3 for mini-cyst), it's usually better than evolving into gorge again.
so far, this has always saved me when i was stuck as gorge.
in rare situations, you can also free yourself as a marine using the rifle-butt. this one really doesn't work quite often, but it's worth a try before suiciding.
Next step: Goomba stomp!
.... Gummi Bears! Bouncing here and there and everywhere ...
If only temperarally, till pathing isnt screweey.
ooo is the lerk going to be able to fly gorges and skulks around? :O :D
And yes I too like this idea, but at the same time I also like how if a gorge wants to get to higher places to build something that they require the assistance of their team mate. Making this game just that much more team oriented... Another words I'm torn with what I really like lol
Gorg needs to BOUNCE!
Gorge takedown ftw.

He's referring to a popular mod of NS1 that allowed Lerks to press E on other aliens and fly them around... It did get pretty ridiculous though, you would have a Lerk holding an Onos and flying through a vent chasing down a Jet-Packer...
That's the problem RIGHT THERE.
People aren't all together friendly to new players who are hanging back and doing there own thing as Gorge.
I don't think that there is any constructive argument that Gorge is as finalized. He lacks ability and usefulness, and the 'skill ceiling' is far to low.
