<div class="IPBDescription">Let me know</div>I have been reading the stories that play testers have writen and they talk about phase gates a few times. What i want to know is, lets say aliens attack a phase gate at one of their hives, assuming the marines built one there. Another marine goes in another phase gate to get to the spot that is beign attack to defend it, but the aliens destroy the phase gate. What happens to the marine does he die or does he still appear or does he go be were he started from?

    Phase travel is instantaneous, so it's not possible to destroy one while a marine is en route... if there's only one phase gate operational, stepping onto it will do nothing.

    It wouldn't be fun to be in transit, then suddenly appear back where you were.

    Hehehe, it would be cool, runs into phasegate, appears in the middle of another room =) The other phase gate was destroyed and the phase stopped just in the middle of the way <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    hmmm I wonder what would happen in one of the rare instances where events happen simultaniously due to lag ect.  like in CS I have been killed by and killed the same person both of us with AKs even though all CS guns hit instantly... hmmmmm

    It'd be funny, but your only going about 300-500 feet, at the speed of light...

    That means you would have to destroy the otehr end of the gate in...

    Hell, the lag alone is .1-2 seconds....
