<!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo--> Ever hid in a rt while building it or just for the sake to hide from on coming marines? I hope in 1.1 this ability will still be available because I find it a funny way for a gorg to hid himself during the game. The only thing that might give him away is if he starts building, healing, or shooting stuff.....but anyways that is too funny to see a healing or attacking rt.
This tactic might proove useful too because normally marines avoid attacking rt's to not give away their current position. But if they do find you you better run or call for help.... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo-->

As a rine it's awesome tbh, see those fades walk past you while you are undercover in the hive <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
I do anyway
So far though, I always use this strategy as Gorge, they will still hear you when they get up close but it is good way to buy time, so you can call some nearby skulks to protect you, and if all else fails, spit then heal spray all the way!
MarineA on team say: comm, make a pg to [somewhere], im in position
A gorge is hiding on a rt behind the marine, drops a couple of oc's and builds them so they get ready at the same moment

MarineA on chat: WTH was that?

**** !!
It was so cool to hide in there as gorge or marine.
I was hoping that in 1.1 that would be a bit easier to marines, because if you now jump inside the RT and crouch, the screen starts to shake.

Really? I need to play where you do. Wherever I play marines tend to disobey move to waypoint orders simply to take out any alien rt they encounter - who cares aout getting found out.

Thats kinda sad.. wonder why not to?. it didnt make games any longer, or such, eventually they will find you. Anyway, back to the question.
I was guarding the RT as a skulk (hiding inside). 2 marines started to knife it,
i had a nice meal <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->. Second time, i was playing on the opposite side as an marine, jumped inside the rt and started knifing.. 2 skulks were like "??? where is he? " , finally they figured it out, i knifed one of them :]
As a gorge RT is wonderfull place to hide yourself, your too small to be seen if your at the right spot. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Once on ns_eclipse I was a marine walking towards the bottom entrance of computer core. I heard a gorg building some thing there, so I decided to kill it. But when I came in to cc the only thing I saw was a rt. after checking the corners, I came to the conclusion that the gorg must have heard me coming and left before I came in. I was just about to knife the rt when a dc popped up. It took a sec before I realized that the gorg was in the rt. I started to shoot at the hiding spot in the rt. and the gorg jump out and started to run. After a short hunt I killed it. At this point the dc was built and shooting at me. I just barely got out of there alive.
It surprises me that not more people use the rt to hide in. it would be an effective defensive tack.
But it is good this is being fixed.
