<div class="IPBDescription">Like in L4D2.</div>This is just a little idea.
We all know that the Gorge is <b>FAT</b> why not allow it to have some sort of ability when it dies.
It may not have to be like the boomer (Blowing up and covering the marines view).
It could be like blowing up into a load of infestation or something. Thus allowing the infestation to advance a bit more when it dies.
Of course other ideas would most likely be better and I would like to hear your ideas.

...and then 1000 skulks appear and tear that marine apart :D
Okay that is over-the-top.
I can't see the gorge as a stinking gasfilled walking bomb.. it is to cute for that. <3
But I agree that there might be some punishment for the marine, who kills a gorge at close range.
nah, in all seriousness...
+1 For gorge exploding into infestation. GIVE IT A MUSHROOM CLOUD FOR ADDED COMEDIC EFFECT.
I'll take an Umbra cloud if this takes too much effort :)
Please add a Fury cloud as well, while you're at it.
OMG They killed Gorgey! You b@stards!
Yeah!
I have a brilliant idea :D
Lets rename Natural Selection 2 and call it Left 4 Aliens!
But yeah I reckon it sounds like a wicked idea. Making them explode and goo... perhaps gestation seeds spurt everywhere when they die?
Dignity and Gorge in one sentence, I've never seen that before! In his favor though, his cuteness more then make up for his silliness. I mean even UWE is taking the piss out of him with belly slide!
Gorge in a top hat?
Well played sir, well played!
like every thread in the ideas and suggestions forum, thats the point, i bet the devs avoid that board like some nasty std, or maybe they just check it from time to time , just for the lulz :p
just making fun
+1 for jihad gorge

To be serious a April fools update should have that, a mushroom cloud. Have it give a temporal defense upgrade for 5 seconds too, for surrounding structures and 2.5 seconds for any alien scum around too. Though other than that how about Gorge when it dies the balloon thingy/chest pops, and infestation comes out of it, or it simply pops and you get a flash bang effect that lasts 2-1 seconds without the white flash/fading effect, so the slight blur and high pitch noise, and severity depends on how close standing to the gorge is, this will be a cool little effect that won't really hinder game play.
"gawd!...that..blinding..fart"
The area decays over time at a rate of 1-10%/second sort of like an infestation patch
This would deter people from killing gorges in a fight in an alien base so they can finally heal buildings without having to run (or slide) a quarter of the map to stop being chased, or killed.

This sounds promising; however people find it frustrating to have their movement speeds decreased.
How about upon death, the gorge releases a massive burst of heal spray.
Since nearby structure and aliens would be healed form the resulting death, it would also deter people from killing gorges. It would also give the gorge a more important role in the alien team prompting people to protect the gorge or not protect it, depending on the situation.
Well then how about a moderate burst of heal spray?
Either way, a pack of gorges running into to dying hive only to die and release heal spray or a pack of gorges running into marine base and exploding seems to be a lot of fun.
