The Fade actually holds no less than seven PHds, but we... er, UWE had to ask him to dial it back to fit in with the general theme of the Kharaa on the stab/chop/face-bite side of things.

Seriously, the guy can…

It's the Lerk's primary and auxiliary soup-drinker, obviously.

in what body part is this Comment by Not Flayra February 2014

I can't say positively, but I heard that they may be adding the ability for Gorges to make pies and leave them for other Kharaa as healing items. But Max can't code the crust up to be both tender AND flaky. So he might be having to take a cooking cl…

I'd say she's pretty average, from that angle.

I heard it was because Hugh wanted them to make a 'CLONK' noise when you hit a Kharaa in the head with one, but Max couldn't code up the tweeting-birds particle effect in time and still make it look good.

in Why doesnt the grenade launcher explode on impact. Comment by Not Flayra January 2014

I heard that they tried, but there was a resonance problem between the technology used in the RTs, and the winding-key on the back of the Macs.
Plus there was a software glitch that made it so the gnocchi-warmer attachment (if so equipped) wou…

in Prioritize Phase Gates Comment by Not Flayra January 2014

We tried this, but Comms kept turning gates off while people were phasing through. And while an extra hand with a gun in it is almost always useful, it's a lot more useful when it's still attached to a Marine.
And setting one gate as the unive…

(Quote) We're... er, I heard UWE is in the process of licensing Pikachu for a Gorge skin replacement. It might be undecided on if they're going to be replacing the Gorge, or just putting it into Pikachu feetie-pyjamas though.

in Advanced Movement (Option in the main menu) Comment by Not Flayra March 2013

It's definitely not an option to allow more skill-based movement for Kharaa, sacrificing some base speed for the potential to move faster via specific methods.

in Advanced Movement (Option in the main menu) Comment by Not Flayra March 2013

I heard that cutting down on the jumping was tried early on, but it led to problems like the Marines not being able to change out light bulbs or something, only being able to jump twice in a row without a pretty significant cooldown.
