<div class="IPBDescription">Tweet Tweet! All aboard!!</div> Man oh Man! you guys gotta check out the gorge transporting lerk!. Man it was sooo funny! I went to a server that had it and went lerk right away. Then I went to a fatty that was huffin and puffin to get to a res BAM picked him up and *ZIP* right to the next RT!. this opens up a whole new demension for the lerk! I was a lerk lover before but now WOW! its sooo cool you can pick that tubby up and zip right into a vent before the rines can smack up the tub with lmg's. The gorge just kidda trails behind you, kinda like a scientist in cs, I thought at first you couldnt take him into vents but I tried it out and it works perfecty! no loss of speed whatsoever!@ unless of course the gorge trys to spit or healspray then you get kinda stuck, but all you have to do is press your use key again and your both free. Just go face to face with the gorge and off you go! either gorge or lerk can climb aboard or get off (sounds kinda kinky doesnt it? <img src='http://users.frailart.net/killymagee/smile_lick.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image'> ) This great mod was made by [WHO]Them and can be found in the servers forum. (just thought I might post it here as well as it relates to Kharaa Strategy, err well to those servers who run it!) hope something like this makes it in for ver 1.1~!

    lol funny and a good idea <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    kinda like my marine being able to buy a gorge cage and some kibble, and have him sit next to the command chair as a pet...

    Innovative, clever, useful... yep, this is a <b>lamer's dream.</b>

    I'm sorry to say, but while this is a really, really cool idea, it could be abused really badly. Imagine some creep going lerk and picking up the gorges against their will, only to yank them to undesirable places (marine base, middle of nowhere vent, bottomless pit, etc..)

    Of course, if the gorge needed to give consent, it wouldn't be so bad...

    You don't need special mods like this to have lamers ruin your game. Lamers will be lamers with whatever you give them. What about ppl who going gorge and wasting res (getting killed, building in stupid locations) or commanders who recycle everything and leave?

    having both or just the gorge players use their use key would work... if you want to get serious with this idea... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The gorge can release himself from the lerk's grip at any time by tapping the 'use' key.

    can't you already do this in a way with skulks and lerks? (gorge getting on there back) in order to climb tall walls?

    Actually this would improve alien teamwork by a lot and make the game cooler. Other combos? Gorge riding a skulk, fade riding a skulk, fade riding a onos, lerk flying with a fade, lerk flying with a onos (no idea how he'd pick up such a fat object but...)

    imagine dive bombing runs with a fade in tow!


    What if marine jetpackers would grab there heavy armored buddies? imagine a fade and heavy armor guy fighting in the air in refinery or viaduct... what a blast!

    lol would love to see a fade charging into battle on his valiant skulk steed
  • Phifth_ElementPhifth_Element Join Date: 2002-11-11 Member: 8233Members
    I LOVE the idea of a lerk riding on an Onos! He could jump on and grab hold. It would be like those little birds that ride around on rhinos! Constant umbra coverage with primal scream to augment!
  • TomCerulTomCerul Join Date: 2002-11-22 Member: 9614Members
    Duh, it would take 2 or 3 lerks to lift an onos!
    <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Course, a gorge would be needed to web them all together. Otherwise the lerks would have to grab onto the onos' dreadlocks or those dangly things underneath *shudder*

    i've played with this mod a few times and its a great effect, but i dont think it should be involved ina serious game. It is fun though.

    I played a game with this mod last night and it was useful. We were on ns_bast and marines jetpacked under the ledges in the powersilo hive (the dark corners) and set up a siege there. So I cleared it out, then picked the gorge up and dropped him up there to put up an OC in each <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    ns_nothing.

    sounds fun this mod <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    fade surfing on a skulk would be daft tho, would be one squished skulk <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'd like to see a fade ride an onos like a horse type thing tho..

    Incedently can the gorge attack while he's flying? Web from above! (WFA! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->)

    Yes, the gorge can attack while being lifted, except the gorge does not regen his energy until he lets go. (or is let go of.)

    It seems all that people want to do in this game now is ride their fellow teammates. Giddyap!

    Marines should be able to piggyback ride each other. That would be comedy.
  • WheezerWheezer Join Date: 2002-11-02 Member: 3926Members, Constellation
    This opens up a whole new strategy for those hopeless games when marines have locked down both hives with siege.

    A lerk carrying a gorge for a bombing run with ocs, trying to hit those siegecannons <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
