Can lerk perch on roof?

<div class="IPBDescription">Surprise-a-licious</div>Is the Level 3 alien able to cling to the ceiling? It would be good if it could because it would enable an alien player to hide in plain sight with the cloaking upgrade and swoop down for an ambush.

If this isn't in, maybe it could be done by holding down crouch when touching the roof. The Lerk wouldn't be able to move around until he/she/it let go of the crouch button.

    I reckon not greenhorn. I believe the Bo- erhmm 'Skulk' is the only one that can wall/ceiling climb.

    'Course I'm no PT... I just read the forums. ^^;;

    Greenhorn? I've been with the NS community for a little over 10 months now.

    I wasn't asking if Lerk could wall-walk, rather if Lerk could cling to a spot on the roof and not move, only look around, unless he/she/it lets go.

    P.S. Coil says no.

    It was planned at one point in time and I personally would love to see it still, but we will know later on I guess.

    I agree, I think that would be a very cool feature.  But my guess is that if it <b>is</b> going to be implemented it'll be in version 2.

    It's cool to see that some people have already leared the official names.  I probably won't have until V.2   <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah this was planned but never went in.  I wouldn't be surprised to see it go in for a later version though.

    sorry for getting off topic but, when the lvl 3 is flying is it in 3rd person or first.

    anyway it sounds like a good idea.

    Currently, all NS action is done in 1st person. Only thing third person is when you're spectating because you got killed by a limey marine #######.

    Perhaps Bob and Tiny should be added to the swear filter. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Not to the swear filter, just make it so they auto switch over to the real and good names! <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    lol that would be nice........
    btw, i wanna ask this about lerk.....
    is there any flying death animation??
    ie: you are flying and somebody shoots ya down, the model will just fall to the ground like a rock and then do something? or it has a nice falling animation??

    On the subject of names, I must say I <b>hate</b> the official names.They all sound kinda corny.I mean...Fade.FADE.a tad generic, IMO.
  • LongtoothLongtooth Join Date: 2002-07-02 Member: 863Members
    What exactly does IMO stand for?
  • KidzeldaKidzelda Join Date: 2002-06-25 Member: 819Members
    IMO = in my opinion
    IMHO = in my humble opinion

    Yeah, we've seen previews of the lvl 3 flying, attacking, and landing, now lets see it die <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    In that case I agree with you zelda.  I have always prefered lev1-5.
