<div class="IPBDescription">Vents... Crates... whatever</div> Durring Pugs and scrims and things, while we are waiting around before it starts, I like to try jumping on to things, seeing where I can get that the creators didn't intend (or perhaps they did and did not tell us). Here's some places I've been able to get to.
- The ledges in the readyroom in ns_tanith. It's an old one, but still fun to be up there.
- The vent on ns_caged that goes from the Sewer res node to the Vent hive. There's a small pole protruding that you can jump from to get in.
- The crates in marine spawn on ns_metal. There are two crates on the side, and a little ledge protruding out, you can jump off to the top. It's only too bad you cant build up there... would be a great place to put up a last stand.
These are all withought any sort of mine ladders or anything. Becuase that's just lame.

Back to what i was gonna say..
In ns_hera i like to go to general cargo storage, go up the elevator, and stand on the railing and crouch jump to the tethered crate, from up there u can guard all entrances and for any skulk to get u is neigh impossible until they have 2 hives...

Oh yeah? Ive relocated to that ledge!
You need to play aliens more...
Like Tekdude said, that's a Kamakzi attack. On a side note, 'Kamakazi' translates to "Divine Wind" in english, and that is the game name of xeno. (Ie: Glitch killed TargetDummy with divinewind)
You've lost me there mate.
Anyway. My fave was a relocation on old hera to double res. -The ledge just above the corridor that leads to entrance/recep. Took about 5 rines to get up there. Awesome exploitation of HL collision code. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Can't do it in new hera. No ledge. :S
ironicly its our clans home map. and everytime a match start we go and jump on the grate on cargo bay and down the ladder hatch so we can hear the oh so lovely "grunch" sounds as our legs break to pieces. ^^
Yeah, or when either the bottom or top guy gets spored to death while desperately trying to get in that vent ...
Does this count stacking? You can get to a heck of a lot of places by using the patented <b><i>Sven Coop Technique</i></b>. Including the top of the glass passageway where endgame gorges like to camp with DC's to heal them.
You know, the one near where the "lork on the clorf" incident took place. Thats how I saw an alien team finished off once, because they didn't want to wait for jetpacks and they couldn't reach the gorge or the DC...
ok if anyone knows what ima talkling bout...well whatever ok here it is!!
the rines one and all ok....and i luckly had a Jetpack when we one ok...when we were put back in da ready room i still had da jet pack ok...so i started flying around then i flew into a hole in the ceiling which dropped me in this...what looks to be a launch pad...mabey for planes...a runway! ok any way when id walk a little further and then looked to my right i could see a window and through that window i could see a marine he was looking at me....then turnded and walked away then a couple more wlaked to the window...im guessing this was around the Rine Base so yea ill see if ive got a pic...it was ns_metal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! by the way at the alien entrance above it is a big hunk of cheese i took a pic of dat and the runway so....heres da pic
shoot i cant for some reason upload it...sorry
o yea i was once in the Rave room on ns_nancy...ive also got a pic of that
Not really an exploit, but just wondering... has anyone ever relocated (as rine obviously) to the little ledge across the gap in the "Eternal Requiem" res node in ns_lost? It's a nice little spot, but problem is by the time you get relocated there, the alien team gets too damn strong, and it's just a game of "lets make it hard for the aliens to get us haha" and all that.
Everyone knows about the ns_nancy rave room, but it's not like you can jump to get there. Ooooh, anyone see the new pics of the NEW ns_nancy rave room (coming out in beta4)?? I smell raving fades and rines.
My favortie trick (but not anymore since 3.0) was to reloate the rine base in ns_bast into the vent systems by spawn... and just turret farm like crazy. Always ended up in one team F4ing haha.

you don't need the tower to get there, when arriving from the long tunnel, jump from the platform onto the left pipe/girder, from there, jump onto the crate, and continue as you said.
