Lerk stick

TheOriginal10Round

<div class="IPBDescription">Walls and ceilings</div>I thought that the NS team had issues with this in the original NS , hopefully it can be implamented in NS2. Lerks being able to stick to walls and ceilings, it would add to what is already a fun alien to play.

i think he means being able to press a button to stick.
if not u would have to hold ctrl to not stick would be pretty could sticking to the walls and ish like bats :>

I like this idea but you should stick or perch to the roof only, like a bat and not walls, gravity does effect the lerk.
When perched your not making noise like you currently do in NS1 flying around to be above marines heads.
As for in the heat of a battle i wouldnt suggesting perching unless you have a death wish in the current NS1 maps. But if this ability is put in the map designs would largly effect wheather it was a good ability or not.
I think it would be great for a lerks game because in my opinion most marines are lazy and don't look above for danger they tend to be more worried about leaping skulks.

This was proposed wayyyy way back. By me, I think.

Holding crouch as a lerk would make you stick to a surface. That was the gist of it. It just never happened.

well it seems like a pretty cool ideal to me <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

ALSO PLEASE ALLOW LERKS TO BE ABLE TO FLY BACKWORDS IN NS2

kthx lol

Yeah scythe, I knwo it's an old, old, old idea but since the game is moving on to a new engine I hope it is something that gets incorporated into the game. I am by no means claiming this idea as my own, just something I recalled from long ago.

Just give lerks suction cups on their feet, problem solved.

On a more serious note, it is annoying if your in a room and the best spot to spore/umbra from is the highest point in the room sitting there flapping at the top is kinda dumb looking. Id rather not see them able to move from this spot while sticking to the ceiling, rather have them fly up look at the spot they want to stick to and press a button to stick to that spot.
