    Well, I never did a Onos «rush», but I often managed to get them pretty early in the game. How much time did it take to get to Onos ?

    I always considered a rush to be within the first 2 or 3 minutes of the game - so I've never seen an Onos "rush."

    I have had multiple Onos charge into a base of mine once. That wasn't too fun. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    5 onos + cloaking + caparace + celerity = needlessly deadly. lol (yes, ive seen this and yes, it was funny)




    speaking of the rush though, for some reason i have very little success with getting the Charge move to work. any advice? i can gore like no ones business, so thats not the problem. i just cant seem to get the charge to work.

    with charge all you do is click it once and run into things until your energy goes out. thats all. and when i mean rush i mean a sudden bombardment and ultimate destruction of the marines <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> i always take cloak + celerity + carapace. its the best and most fun <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I use Regen :-)
    Regen + Adrenaline + Cloaking (for lingering outside the base and picking off the Marines that try to run) = fun fun fun

    Ahh the game ending Onos rush, I've been through many and loved every minute of it. The best one had to be when I was a light marine and tried to rush 2 Onos's out of sheer insanity. I told the commander not to give me a weapon, so he drops me an HMG, not wanting to waste resources, I drop it leaving me with only my pistol to rush Onos's with. I get to the marine base elevator in bast and see 5 of the **obscenity** off mutant rhinos getting on the lift. Like the kamakazee marine I am, I rush all 5 of them with nothing more than a pistol! I die of course, but I did manage to live longer than I expected to (I got 3 clips out).
