<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.

    It's fun to boost ppl into a vent to get that pesky sporespamming lerk. Hilarious when after all that trouble, the lerk bites him. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    EDIT: Ok this is a new one.. i actually just posted on the forum by accidentally typing My IM RESPONSE in here verses in the IM WINDOW... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> thats a new one for me

    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...

    Marines made a final desperate relocation on hera on the launchpad. I spawned as an onos launched me off the IP at the same time a lerk xenoed. I got blasted into the 'lork on the clorf' area where I promptly tried to escape and fell to my doom. Interestingly enough, the onos got blown off the ledge too.

    the lerk xenoed? Awesome, reminds me of those planes that just hit the ships and blow up. I forgot the name.

    I've jumped to the ledge behind the Eternal Requiem resource node on Lost.

    Jumping on an Onos from a ledge, and riding it down a corridor.

    the other day i was biling out of ms vent into some turrets, didnt know if i did any dmg (yes the bilebomb still doesnt work sometimes) but they sure noticed, i didnt have regen so i got a skulk to boost me just under the vent exit so they couldnt hit me. anyway they made a tower just as we got 3 hives (both mine) and i webbed and spat him on like 10 hp <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    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)

    One time I got a pack of mines and used them to relocate in to the vent at ns_nancys cargo room (think that's the name). It went well until the fades got acid rocket. D:

    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

    ns_origin

    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. ^^

    A favorite of mine in caged is jumping into the vent from purification station and crawling all the way to ventalation hive.
  • Cereal_KillRCereal_KillR Join Date: 2002-10-31 Member: 1837Members
    with mines, all you need is a bit of creativity... I made a ladder to go on the viaduct bridge on ns_nothing, for example...

    Yeah, or when either the bottom or top guy gets spored to death while desperately trying to get in that vent ...

    Wait a sec...

    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 mine would be.....well ill explain how to get there...but sadly ive no idea what mapp it was...but here are some details..it was a map in the Ready Room are with tables and stuff and on a table was a block of cheese...if that help o.0

    shoot i cant for some reason upload it...sorry

    Now jetpack has got to be cheating, it's almost as bad as a skulk or fade with blink, because it takes no effort on the players' part.
  • Thats_EnoughThats_Enough USA Join Date: 2004-03-04 Member: 27141Members, Constellation, Reinforced - Shadow
    It's only cheating if someone catches you doing it :-p

    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.

    In ns_caged, shipping tunnels, you can jump on top of the girder that runs above the resource node. Provided there's a resource node there, there's a small ledge you can use to jet that extra bit of height neede to jump on the tower. You can then jump on the crate, run along a ledge near the wall, and crouch-jump on top of the girder. It's a great place to hide. Wait until some skulk decides to chomp on the tower, then shoot him dead <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo--> .

    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.
