<div class="IPBDescription">i suppose..</div> Five times total on two different maps a marine with a jetpack managed to quickly fly past defences and somehow get on top of the Hive itself... there he sat knifing it and there was seemingly now way to stop him once he was up there. I launched at least 20 - 30 acid rockets but they did no dammage?? seriously!! i had time do, err... devolve i guess, to skulk to climb up there n get him. this had no effect either. dont know if i couldnt get close enough or if it was the marine chrouchy hitboxy thing going on.

The first map was nancy and i think the second one was hera.

Should exploits like these be sent directly to devs??... i figgured they must geet about a million mails everyday by now so they might not read such a mail anyway?

anyone?

    I've seen it happen before.

    It's not a problem for me. 2 marines where on top of it and I killed one with Parasite (LMAO) and the other one fell down. I was going to leap attack him anyways, so it was all good, hehe.

    If you can't get him..well I guess that is your problem. Evolve into a lurk and fly up and hit them/him with those spikes.

    I have no problem with it, if a marine can stay there long enough to actualkly knife and kill a hive... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    No offense... but just have the hive eat the guy then. It can spit out pile after pile of Skulks, but it can't chew up and digest one Marine? *laughs* Just a thought.

    i realy like that idea, would be cool to see a marine get swollowed up and slowly digested.

    Once marines get jetpacks i always see them doing this. Most of the time it just takes time to find that one spot where you can actually fire your gun and cause damage. Seems the big hive makes it really hard to hit the little marine sitting on top knifing it to death. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
