Onos And The Command Chair

DjArcas

<div class="IPBDescription">Uh oh</div> Just had a thought - on my map, the Onos is unlikely to be able to make it to the command chair - fade, skulk, lerk and gorge should be fine tho - does anyone else consider this a problem? (The Onos can touch the rest of the base with no problem)

kompo

I think it's a big problem.

DjArcas

Er, can you expand further on that?

Would it also be a problem if the commander built a seconday CC in a place he KNEW the Onos couldn't get to?

Shoot_me

I don't know why it would be a problem. Fades can take out a command chair almost as quickly. Besides, who cares about a command chair when all the spawns are gone and everyone but the commander is dead? He has to either get out of the chair, be removed, or give up eventually. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

hmm.. never thought of that, but I think the onos should get to the original CC, just because it's the most powerfull alien.

i dont necessarily see this as a problem, if you have onos in your base then you are probably not in a good situation. chances are, said onos is backed up by a host of smaller aliens.
if you are really concerned about balance issues, either testplay it with bots or friends and see how it works.

its not a problem mate, as i have never got an onos into the ns_hera chair. by that time a skulk has destroyed it or hes given up.

Windelkron

well, I remember once I onos rushed the CC on my own on Bast. i got past all the defense, and I was up the ladder and the room is so small, I started clipping into all the brushes and shaking around or something, and I got reamed by turrets. Make your CC room BIG.

Yeah, thats a pain, especially when some newbie marine is up there with a knife and stabs you to death.

Then you gotta hear:

NSN00bster: HAHAHAHAdhAH, I KNIFED TEH ONOS!!! ASHAHAHAH U SUCK!!!!11

or something similar.
