Gorge Redesign

I know this is SUPER LATE but .. better then never I guess...

Just wanna throw this out there if anyone's willing to consider it..

I saw some vids on ns2 and was thinking.. this creature does fit in ns2.. It has its roll and serves it purpose... but something doesn't feel right... maybe it would be better if the gorge had a *** New Evolutionary Stage *** in NS2. After achieving a *few(not too little)* team points, the gorge could evolve from this small helplessly cute(in its own way) creature into this "Bigger" "Messier" "Slimier" creature that crowds hallways and can tank non-upgraded bullets providing a full proof shield for skulks. It can also build faster by spewing out whole towers(not resource towers) now instead of the seeds that grow into towers.

Not only that but he could provide as a "Healing station" for allies and he could also have a "REDESIGNED" Bio-bomb that doesn't damage its targets but slows their movement making them easier prey for allies.

This could also give more purpose to the new flame throwers ;]

    Soooo you want an gornos?

    I think this would detract from both the onos and the gorge TBH, why have either when you can easily get a combination of the two?

    im picturing something like the dinosaur on the left of this pic <a href="http://www.dugnorth.com/blog/uploaded_images/rc_wooden_puzzle_dinosaurs.jpg" target="_blank">http://www.dugnorth.com/blog/uploaded_imag...e_dinosaurs.jpg</a>.


    not as big as the onos.. not nearly as tall as the fade.. just wider/ longer

    As for its roll i was thinking about the little aliens with shields that become a nuisance ..


    just throwing random ideas out ;]

    The Gorge can already tank, to a certain point. Crouching will let the Gorge curl downwards revealing a protective shell that will give some more protection against bullets. I don't think the Gorge can move though while in this armor mode though, it is a temporary thing to hold off the Marines until more powerful Aliens can come along and defend the Gorge from death.

    I haven't noticed any differences between Crouching and not crouching though, so I don't think it is currently enabled in the Beta but all the code is there.
