As some people know, aliens have a great base if they move to the "one door room" it's easy to defend and there is only one side that needs defence.
But, i got pissed and wanted to teach those shitty aliens a lesson by building ALOT of turrets and teslas infront of that door so they couldn't get out anymore. My teammate was distracting aliens and misshooting at aliens while i was busy building a defence infront of that door (We hunted eggs before we tried to do this trick)
anyways as you can see on this picture the base was set up infront of that door. Aliens couldnt get in our out, atleast thats what I thought.

As you can see 1 turret is aiming on me.. at that point I knew something was terribly wrong >.<
and it was! Some granger managed to PASS THAT DEFENCE :-?
I was kinda pissed about this.. How in the world can suck a little green ugly thing pass such great defence?
Was the granger using god-mode?
Was the granger using spinach?
Got the granger get kicked over my defence?
Did he teleported away from that room?
I'm still flabbergasted by this..
BTW:
WE GOT FRIGGIN OWNED! xD Dammit aliens could reach our reactor with eas...
^^ I hope to see NICE replies on this "AMAZING Houdini" granger

Well..
Mistake #1: Show no mercy. Beat the enemy to death, then continue. You can do the happy dance on the credits endgame.
I think the granger wallwalk while other aliens attack. Multiple targets, so most turrets where killing something, but a granger was fast enough to escape. Teamwork?.
-
firstly that wasnt "Some granger", that was ME
secondly What did I tell you as soon as I connected, joined aliens and landed in a sieged window room? That YOU ALLREADY LOST :]
thirdly I'v got a demo :]
Now tell me how much you want that demo ? :))))
btw Humans were S3, aliens S1, I beat the living crap out of humans :]]]]

Yeah, probably that. Although, on one Niveus game I went inside the hovel as a granger and some other polite granger decided to decon it. After a few rebuilds and decons etc, I managed to get out - and spawned straight into the human base :-? Haven't managed to be able to do that again...

its easy as a granger to get past turrets, as u can just run (well walk) along the walls. u needed more teslas, as they would just kill anything in sight
-
no, Teiman is wrong :)
I'm firing up ftp, will post link in a sec
-
Either that, or the hovel teleport trick.
Or maybe there was a granger outside the base already

XDXD Wha?!? Am I understanding correctly? You were in some sort of hovel limbo?
..and what makes you think that there wasn't a granger outside of the room the whole time? Otherwise it's quite possible to get out so long as the turrets are distracted and/or facing the wrong way.

lol, i wanna see that demo, rasz, hurry ;)
nice screenshot, DjPong :)

I was wrong, aliens were s2 :)
edit: and how its posible? You always spawn from the nearest spawn to the reac/om, you spawn from the second close only if the closest is allready in use. That took me ~7-10 spawns to get the right egg :]
-
:evil: Wtf? So there WAS an egg outside?
:P Anyways this thread was meant to be funny. Some reactions are.. so.. xD LOL!

This is reproducible, and very easy in Nexus.
I think your entity is "deleted" so your new origin become '0 0 0'. On some maps that can be outside the playble area. On Nexux is over the map, so you wan wallwalk outside the level. And even build eggs.
I hope this minor bug can be fixed on future releases. Also seems that there are not much usefull to do with that :) and people play nice.
Hehehehe ... will be fun to see the demo :D
-
Damn rasz_pl, i'm impressed by your playing!
That basi stuff is nice, you're kind of using the dretch tactic with it..
VERY nice comeback though!
It's funny how one measly egg like that can completely turn a game that way..

on transit someone built an un seeable egg on the ramp you start with an distorted view (as in no clip)

When some admin finds such egg, he should do this:
1) Decon the egg
2) Ban the builder
3) Remove transit from map rotation
It's known bug that is fixed in SVN.

What ramp?
And where exactly?

3) Remove transit from map rotation
and tremor. I wonder why the mapper put a large section under the underground

As next_ghost said, that bug has been fixed. Quite a few of the servers are running with the patch (for instance, I know you can't do this on tjw anymore).
Any server that doesn't have this fix needs to upgrade.
