BitRaiser 10-01-2004, 06:31 PM WARNING!
Some of these may cause false bug reports!
A few folks I've grappled have made chat comments like "&#($en bug!! I almost had the flag, but something stupid happened and I lost all my speed!"
JackLuminous 10-02-2004, 01:54 AM just tried out some of these...so much fun! I actually managed (luck?) to snag a capper in midair and held him for 1.5 sec .my teammate then finished him off...also tried the assault ship counter :) ..couldn't get burner out in time but it was fun to try.....i like the longer reach but the sh1t breaks too easily. I never cared enough to use it but now that I have my ELF back (albeit requiring skill now) it's not bad --added it to my Bastard loadout
BitRaiser 10-02-2004, 03:39 AM Heehee... I'm seeing more and more people out trying this stuff. I wound up going against some guys that were doing the Pod swing thing. They made a good team and really caused some good ol fashion mayhem.
enDless_Delirium 10-02-2004, 03:45 AM Y'know.
There really is nothing like grabbing the flag on Isle, grappling the enemy pod which is spamming you, then having an enemy LD accidentally miss you and snipe the pod pilot.
Jet and reel-in to build some speed, and off I went before the rest of the LD ate me alive :D
Skarsnik 10-02-2004, 04:52 PM Hehe I was just in a game, and was being grappled quite a lot :)
Fugazni 10-02-2004, 05:05 PM Heh thanks Bit, gonna have to give these things a try.
jotun 10-02-2004, 05:08 PM I saw a couple guys doing this on cavern:
One flies a pod around
The other gets repair pack, burner, disc, and grapple. He grapples the pod and swings around on it, using the repair pack to keep it alive and raping with the burner (no energy problems since you're just grappled) and disc.
It was working absurdly well.
BitRaiser 10-02-2004, 05:41 PM What have I done??
Very odd to notice that since this thread has been up, the number of people preforming stupid grappler tricks has increased ALOT! Some folks are really making 'em work well too!
Me 'n my big mouth! Shoulda kept it shut! :p
Chicken Meal 10-02-2004, 07:28 PM Wow, what jotun listed is an extremely sick combo. Combine hard to hit pod with hard to hit grappler swinging around+burner and repair pack for any damage it takes...that's really sick.
BitRaiser 10-02-2004, 07:29 PM HEY! I listed it first! :p
Heehee... I'm seeing more and more people out trying this stuff. I wound up going against some guys that were doing the Pod swing thing. They made a good team and really caused some good ol fashion mayhem.
dan-o2 10-02-2004, 07:34 PM Hey, did you ever know that there are punctuation points other than the exclamation point!? It's true! You should try them! !! !! !!!!!
P.S. !
GB.Arkady 10-03-2004, 03:04 AM hmmm, I like the idea of using the ships as makeshift APCs for the heavies.
FishStix 10-03-2004, 03:08 AM i love effing with the grappler. however cant seem to snag people with it. it disconnects so fvcking easily that its impoissbile to use it effetcinvly
woah i cant farging type.
<--- too much sake stongiht
BitRaiser 10-03-2004, 03:53 AM Fish... make sure you are skiing when you try to hook something. Increases the chance of holding alot!

The imagery this brought me made me laugh out loud with glee.
Yes, glee.
