Wouldn't it be cool if a skulk could chomp off an arm, and run away....and the rine would have only one arm? Or, skulk chomp off a leg, and the rine has to prone his way back to base, or just use a JP. The models would look cool, but then I'm sure the rine would die because of blood loss--unless a rine near by could burn the limb with a welder so the rine couldn't bleed anymore--I think I see this done in a Rambo movie where he burns himself to stop bleeding in his stomache. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    the sheer unbalance of this idea makes me cringe. sure if we could shoot off the gorge's legs, or the lerks wings wed all be happy right?

    it would be cool, but it just doesnt work imo

    You probably couldnt do that because of engine limitations.

    Half-Life is a 5 year old engine you know <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Good idea though

    This relates to locational damage. I think the general consensus is that locational damage is not desired in NS.

    I want locational damage in NS, and I thought the FAQ said it was planned for a future version. Eitherway, because everytime I get bit by a skulk it goes down to 48 health, and whatever armor, it doesn't feel right, its always the same number, reminds me its only a game.

    I want tranquilizers to shoot the gorge.. carry his sleeping body into those cages on ns_nancy, the ones in cargo i believe..... then i want to grab a welder and weld him in... also must disable kill in console so he cant just commit suicide... then i want to sit there and laugh at him as he gets 100 res and can do nothing with it

    There was a game released years ago (i think around '96 or so) called Die By The Sword. In brief, the game was a hack 'n' slash RPG which failed to sell quite badly, even though it was quite a good game.

    Anyway, onto the relevant part. This game allowed the total dismemberment of whoever you were fighting, and this was the coolest thing ever. And what made it better was that you could cut someone's arm off and then continue to beat them to death with their own limb.

    This technology has been available for years, even before HL, so don't presume that it's not possible by it's age <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I think this would be a cool idea, aesthetically, but in practicality it's stupid.
