    I remember when a walker fade was a fade who chose carapace/focus over redemption. Power over speed/ability

    That was never a thing. Carapasc Focus was the standard build for fades in every version that had focus. Redemption would only be used on onos.

    We had combat heroes in NS1, so I guess it still applies now. People who do inexplicably well in co, but are inexplicably poor players in ns.

    ^^ This one is the best

    how about i make some up
    Battle gorge: The noob that thinks gorges are a offensive life form and charge into battle head first and of course die in <5 sec

    Best Friends for ever (BFF): 2 people following each other around healing/ welding each other


    What can we call the noobs that get camo and move every where stealthed when asked to run to places asap to defend/ offence or vice versa the ones that dont even use camo at to stealth up to marines.
    The learning curve for this game isnt even that big for this game, it still suprises some of the stupid things people do in this game.

    That doesn't sound like a battle gorge at all.. you obtain battle gorge status when you get a doublekill with spit, and then live on to bilebomb and spit more things to death. Imo.
  • AzaralAzaral Join Date: 2012-11-19 Member: 172408Members
    Battle gorge is running in with the skulks spamming heal spray on marines and skulks. Surprisingly really good thing to do. the trouble is keeping up!
  • LofungLofung Join Date: 2004-08-21 Member: 30757Members
    oh btw. walker/walking fade was meant to those fade who never use blink.

    and paper/2minutes onos/fade

    it's natural state of the game when no one on your team goes lerk/fade/gorge because they are all too busy saving up for onos right?

    Battle Gorge is actually a skilled gorge that can push marine advance back or hold key position on his own.

    Hey, that's me! :D

    I remember a game in which I was Alien Comm (so gorging around a bit doesn't hurt) and I killed 8 Marines in that game with spit/healspray solo and assisted my fellow little skulky friends spit-spray-bombing when they chomped up dem puny humies near our hive.


    On <!--coloro:#FF8C00--><span style="color:#FF8C00"><!--/coloro-->veil<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--> as an Alien I always type something like <!--coloro:#FF0000--><span style="color:#FF0000"><!--/coloro-->"Noone messes around with NINJA GORGE!"<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->, when I am in the <!--coloro:#00FF00--><span style="color:#00FF00"><!--/coloro-->Vent of Lameness™<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--> bilebombing the power node at <!--coloro:#00BFFF--><span style="color:#00BFFF"><!--/coloro-->Nano Grid<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->, should the Marines have conquered Nano, or if I just razed a base with a sneaky bilebomb attack on any map.

    Yes, I like Gorges, especially when the Marines are all <!--coloro:#F4A460--><span style="color:#F4A460"><!--/coloro-->"IT'S SOOOO FLUFFY! I'M GONNA DIE!"<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--> ;)

    pretty much, but u get to rip on that scrub + call of duty @ the same time, so it's 2 birds with 1 stone.

    Right, so that gorge that helps the early RTs grow and secures a second hive for the Com is a retard...

    The important part of that was "camps next to the hive". Going gorge right away and going and building RTs and hives is good, camping the starting hive is normally useless.

    I would disagree with "normally" there too. A gorge with hydras next to the start hive can slow or stop an early marine rush, or the early probings of marines, depending on the size of the rush and the skill of the gorge. However, this is most useful if the marines start close to the hive and rush. If they are expanding and not rushing the hive, yea it is useless. But that is only after the fact.
