Re: Et tu Brute?

In Response To: Re: Et tu Brute? (scarab)


: I'd like to practice there too. Ahem, moving on...

What, you secretly want to be a Grunt too? Shhhh! Don't tell anyone!

: I once killed a Grunt in the stealth room on AotCR. I wacked him and he fell
: into a gap between the floor and the bit of geometry that he was sleeping
: on. He floated there, suspended between floor and the geometery above,
: windmilling for ever. It looked like Grunt swimming lessons.

I had something like that too! It was maybe within the last year or so. It was in the room with the 30-odd dozing Grunts - that's the one you meant, right? As you get to the entrance of the inner area (where you can normally whack an Elite from behind), my Grunt was the one not far off, sitting in a little recess at the end of the long thing on the right, which Elites pace around. I either tagged him or he took a blast some other way, and it must've wedged him into part of the recess, or something like that. The upshot was, he was stuck there like a foot off the ground with arms windmilling. And just like you, I thought he looked like he was swimming. Come to think of it, maybe that's where they get the windmilling from. Is swimming popular on the home planet? That sounds pretty dubious actually; they're not gonna get much kick with those stubby little legs are they? Anyway, it went on for several seconds or more before he became free. Pity it didn't go on longer, or I could've caught it on video.

: And two days ago I saw a marine jump through the ground and heard him fall to
: his death. It was in the area where you pick up your first set of marines

That sounds amazingly freaky. I've never seen that before.

: They are on the floor below. I think they are the trees and rocks I'm
: supposed to be aiming for. I see them as I die. "Oh look: tree!
: Ughhh..." splat!

Ah well, at least we've established that they're "on the floor below". We're making progress now.
